In any random pattern of pixels there is a certain probability that something recognizable will be seen. Different people may see the same image but it will still be a result of chance events. The same thing can occur with hearing voices in random noise recordings.

If you want to rule this out from your experiments then you can ask the spirits to stay away and then go ahead with your procedure. Take, for example, 100 samples without spirit involvement, then ask the spirits to do their thing and take another 100 samples. Then get a person who doesn't know which samples are which and ask them to try to find patterns - images or voices.

You may get a statistically significant result with only ten samples or you may have to do 1000, or 10,000 or more.

It's a lot of work and you have to apply statistical analysis to understand the meaning of your results. But if you find a statistically significant result you can publish it.
