Answer
Movement Manipulation is the influencing or controlling of physical movement through neural regulation and electrical signals. Within the Project Puppet framework, every voluntary movement involves neurological commands ultimately producing muscle activation—the brain sends signals through the nervous system to the muscles, instructing them to move in specific ways. The system identifies the neurological patterns associated with motor planning and execution through RNM, then introduces the impulse to move in a specific way (Impulsion), alters the direction, speed, or nature of movement (Alteration), stops movement or prevents initiation (Interruption), or creates the feeling of being pushed or pulled (Compulsion).
Movement Manipulation results in Impulsion (feeling pushed or pulled toward specific actions or directions), Compulsion (feeling compelled to perform specific movements), Interruption (sudden freezing, hesitation, or stopping), Alteration (movement that feels altered or influenced), and Initiation (movement that seems to start without your volition). In its strongest form, this is where the term "Project Puppet" becomes literal—the system can make you walk in a specific direction, reach for an object, or perform an action against your will.
This represents the most profound violation of bodily autonomy—the ability to influence not merely what someone perceives or feels, but what their body does. Targeted Individuals report feeling pushed toward specific locations, compelled to perform actions they didn't intend, sudden freezing or hesitation, and movements that feel like they are being "pulled" by an external force.
