Operation GreenWhispers: A Psychological Folklore Experiment
Donation protected
A cannon. A town. A whisper that becomes real. Help me create, document, and expose a living myth—and what it reveals about how easily belief takes root.

️What is Operation GreenWhispers?
Operation GreenWhispers is a live, analog psychological experiment and immersive art project. I’m seeding a fictional legend—grounded in real history—into a small New England town through flyers, rumors, symbols, and physical “evidence.”
No digital trace. No official story. Just carefully planted fragments that spread organically, changing how people perceive a place they’ve known all their lives.
The project explores how myth takes hold in the modern mind. How belief spreads in the absence of proof. How easily we are manipulated—by fear, suggestion, and the hunger to make sense of the unknown.

️Why I’m Doing It
Because I want to show that stories still have power—especially when they’re whispered, not shouted.
This isn’t about tricking people. It’s about holding up a mirror. About creating something that pulls people out of autopilot and makes them question:
| What do I believe? And why?
It’s also personal.
This is a story about the unseen. About what happens when someone feels invisible long enough that the only way to be seen is to become the shadow itself.

What the Project Involves
Creating physical lore: aged flyers, journal entries, fake newspaper letters, cryptic pamphlets
- Embedding clues around the town (park benches, books, restrooms, etc.)
- Using overlooked populations (like the local unhoused) as myth amplifiers
- Tracking the ripple effects as rumors spread, stories mutate, and belief sets in
- Filming and documenting the entire process from start to finish
- Releasing a short film + zine that reveals how it was all done—and why

What I Need Funding For
To do this right, I need equipment and materials for fieldwork, filming, and production:
- A new iPhone or compact video camera for candid/field footage
- A MacBook Pro with Final Cut Pro X for editing the final documentary
- ️ Printer, paper, tea/ink/singeing supplies for creating aged relics
- A small mic or audio recorder for interviews and ambient sound
- Funds to produce DVDs, digital releases, physical zines, and myth fragments
- Possibly securing temporary access to local venues for screenings or events
I’m keeping costs as low as possible—this is meant to feel real, raw, and grassroots.

Why It Matters
This is art.
This is social philosophy.
This is about what happens when you inject fiction into a vacuum of meaning—and let people do the rest.
It’s also about something deeper: the hunger to be seen, the ease with which belief infects a place, and how sometimes… the ghost is just the person nobody noticed.

Final Note:
If you've ever wanted to see how easy it is to make something real just by believing in it, this is your chance.
Thank you for being part of this.
I promise, something strange is coming.

If we exceed the goal, additional funds will go toward expanding the documentary’s production value, printing more relics for distribution, and possibly staging a one-time myth ‘exhibit’ in town.
