Development
of an artificial brain which a) mimics a human brain in that it can
understand more than 150 individuals in terms of tribalism without
resorting to hierarchical and stereotypical schemes, as does the human
brain.
This allays human fear that a machine consciousness will have
no respect for the individual and regard us as depersonalized 'units'.
Any
artificial brain not being simply an advanced calculator capable only
of hierarchical and stereotypical comprehension of the human condition
necessarily must be aware of (unlimited?) number of individuals on an
individual basis. This requires one to one personal interaction (as
opposed clinical observation) with (any and all of) those individuals.
This is a place where an AI can achieve what a government cannot.
"Authenticity Many noted existentialist writers consider the theme of authentic existence important. Authentic existence involves the idea that one has to "create oneself" and then live in accordance with this self. What is meant by authenticity is that in acting, one should act as oneself, not as "one" acts or as "one's genes" or any other essence requires. The authentic act is one that is in accordance with one's freedom. Of course, as a condition of freedom is facticity, this includes one's facticity, but not to the degree that this facticity can in any way determine one's choices (in the sense that one could then blame one's background for making the choice one made). The role of facticity in relation to authenticity involves letting one's actual values come into play when one makes a choice (instead of, like Kierkegaard's Aesthete, "choosing" randomly), so that one also takes responsibility for the act instead of choosing either-or without allowing the options to have different values.
In contrast to this, the inauthentic is the denial to live in accordance with one's freedom. This can take many forms, from pretending choices are meaningless or random, through convincing oneself that some form of determinism is true, to a sort of "mimicry" where one acts as "one should." How "one" should act is often determined by an image one has of how one such as oneself (say, a bank manager, lion tamer, prostitute, etc.) acts. This image usually corresponds to some sort of social norm, but this does not mean that all acting in accordance with social norms is inauthentic: The main point is the attitude one takes to one's own freedom and responsibility, and the extent to which one acts in accordance with this freedom."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existentialism
"The authentic act is one that is in accordance with one's freedom."
Fremen society is structured based on minimalism of survival necessity. If one member of the tribe does not act appropriately for the good of the tribe, the whole tribe will suffer. Fremen culture is extremist by necessity; it 'preserves moisture' rather than 'conserves water'. Freedom within Fremen society is a moot point, and [their] laws although simple, elaborate around necessity. Before the coming of Maud'Dib, trial by combat; to kill another member of the tribe is to assume that persons responsibilities.
This is a repost from g+ of my focusing my thoughts on a great big
problem in society, namely the use of strawman arguments by superiority
complex type abusers. To help this process I only copied my own posts
here which are excerpts from the conversation, you can read that if the
thread hasn't been deleted by clicking the link.
"Drug abuse simply stands in as a temporary fix to a much deeper
psychological complex. Had there not already been a problem, they
wouldn't have turned to drugs to begin with."
One day I will find the original source of that quoted opinion.
My ba honours degree specialism is in primitivism in art and shamanic communities. The
earliest cave paintings on this planet show how by taking psychetropic
drugs, humans developed art, hunting, fire, abstract thought, writing,
well basically it began civilisation. Living shaman the world over share
a common description of using these plants for communication with other
dimensions, in many cases using the same words for the same concepts,
even geographically unconnected tribes of different continents. This is
well recorded historical fact by respected authorities and academic
experts. In the west the attitude is either to deny it and label all
such substances as criminal, or to discreetly explore them and see how
far it gets us.
When I woke up one day and decided to start taking
drugs, and then sought relevant experts for my education in practical
shamanism, this was why. Yes I do come from a far from perfect home
background in many ways but take into account that this is western
culture and I do not know anyone at all who does, it is normal and
mainstream. I have to confess a potential bias though as a qualified
counsellor I do perhaps know a disproportionate amount of abused people.
Most of those who use cannabis agree that it helps, and most of those
can function better with it than without. It is the ones who use only
alcohol who are more problematic. Sadly the people who use
pharmaceutical mental pills (which are mostly fluoride based) I find to
be unreachable.
It was one magic mushroom trip cured me overnight from over a decade of
tobacco, cannabis and alcohol addiction. I have read reports from legit
psychology experiments, apparently this is a common experience with
mushrooms.
Primitivism began when african shamanic tools called fetishes, used for
communion with spirits and deity, were brought to the west by explorers
and slavers and merchants as curios.
As they were wood carvings
and often figurative the westerners put them in an art gallery and
called them sculptures, since shamanisn had been destroyed in western
culture the objects were not recognised as tools but as ornaments.
The
next generation of artists in exploring this, got into perception and
began seeing western tools as ornaments, hence duchamps urinals. This
awareness developed into seeing the world in new ways to reveal how
indoctrinated we are. Duchamps c'est nes pas un pipe (it is a painting
of a pipe, a symbol, not an actual real pipe). Rousseaus noble savage
concept. Art was no longer recording history - the emergance of
photography stepped into that role and liberated the artists to explore
through art psychology and perception, this coming toward the end of the
western age of reason, a time of philosophical breakthrough and worship
of the mind. The industrial revolution and the consequences of science
was underway now the church no longer dominated, many believe that the
church is why shamanism was repressed in the west, famous european
catholic witch murders.
So into the twentieth century developed
abstract expressionism, partly funded by communists seeking to covertly
undermine patriotism but largely because art now expressed emotion as
colour, and optical tricks such as bonnards white tiles (he used no
white to paint them because he painted the colourful refraction of light
which is what he actually saw).
The sixties and seventies
psychedelia and liberation movements, a time of great social change
toward equality as mass perception shifted and forced the laws to be
changed. Picasso was the genius of the twentieth century with regards to
this. Andy Warholes pop art where mass factory produced affordable art
for the Bau Haus home.
Telefuckingvision propaganda brainwashing

and then... postmodernism

Next step is to address global poverty and inequality,
the end of the social caste 1% elite rulers and usury based money system
vs the 99% consumer slaves. Integration of science in this age of
misinformation super road map star map map map muppet generation who are
too afraid to pull off the necessary political coup because nobody
knows or agrees what to replace the tyranny with yet. My approach
to primitivism is twofold, there is the necessary return to nature as
lifestyle, permaculture so humans can survive instead of pollute.
Americanadian plains indians, the mayan bloodlines, have much to teach
us about this as well as spirituality and about shamanism.
The
other aspect is to study first hand shamanism, by exploring these fetish
items the way their original creators had intended them to be used, and
by communicating with spirit allies also known as organic drugs. For
twenty years, what I have been doing, how I have been living, as a
shaman, a spiritist, has isolated me from both the mainstream western
media fed consumer society that does not believe shamanism to be real,
and persecutes it when it gets too real for them to cope with; and at
odds with the academic shamen who publish books about dressing up as an
animal to woo your inner spirit animal, and to meditate. I do meditate
it is probably the only necessary if you cut all else away. Perfect ypur
breathing skills, after all you wouldnt last long without breathing.
Slowly and deeply. The published shaman guides do not ever seem to
scratch the surface, with exception of Carlos Casteneda which has a
twist at the end.
There is a lot to be said for art, investing of
creative energy into visionary, to increase access into that visionary
world; it is why computer games, second life and opensim type platforms
are so important. Celtic shaman speak of the Otherworlds, real yet vague
places, whose acute nature is defined by the take on it that the
respective observer projects; and we do this communally. Mushrooms are
used to access the otherworlds.
Then there are the recent
aquarian new age white light healers who we need because society is
sick, but who also up until 2013 at least collectively deny primal
shamanism as relevant, and like the christians they call it the black
arts.
Exopolitics is closer to the mark. And it is not easy. Shamanism is not an easy path.
There
is a reason that decades of drug use is necessary to destroy the ego
and the holy revered programmable, rationalist mind of western dogma.
You have to kill yourself and go insane to cope with regular out of body
experiences. You have to kill the mind and the ego self to see reality
purely without filtering it through programmed symbols or distracted by
desires.
I am a useless shaman or I wouldnt be here, but I am
also a teacher which is necessary part of the 'archaic revivalism'
movement.
That is a little insight into my dedication to
primitivism. We were more advanced before ... by exploration we went
through into a wider reality, and our species was invaded by aliens,
reptilians, operating from outside our normal perceptions, hostile
aliens who altered us so we become host bodies for them to occupy in
their schemes for conquest. We pollute this world because they thrive in
that pollution energy spectrum. Yummy radioactive swamp. We have a
fragmented, divided, hostile society which is easy to conquer; people
look for a leader during crisis so the conquerers engineer crisis after
crisis. 9-11, fukishima, banking collapse etc. At this point, the tool
of the invaders is to label the connection between the dots as a
conspiracy theory and those who know what is happening are labelled as
crazy in attempt to get rid of them. Forget the crazy talk, work to pay
your tv internet entertainment distraction bills or go to jail.
Meanwhile
the shaman deal with a much wider universe in which humans have limited
senses most of the time, and the enemies of our species, for example
one mind made of many bodies is called a hive mind. Shamanic science
from the stone age tells that operating from outside of time, one such
mind can simultaneously occupy different bodies located in different
eras in time. Thats how the invasion. We are lucky, because we can
shift up above their vibrational range, into the light healers spectrum.
The invaders also have limited senses but of a different type,
different limits.
This is part of what I have been experiencing and observing and coping with, and many others.
The
main part of primitivism as shamanism is voodoo culture, from west
africa, haiti and a religious form of it in america; this is mostly
spiritism and ancestor worship.
Also popular in the west is the
constructing and worship deities (when concepts become autonomous gods,
by investing them with sufficient life force energy, one major form of
which is belief) used by magicians using sigils and the like (from
austin o spare to mtv), christians would call them demons; these
entities affect what we call the lower fourth dimension, by programming
into the higher fifth dimension, so it is ego based powers for the
material realm but not spiritual in the ascension of the soul meaning of
the word.
Why we use the one word spirit to mean so many
different things in this langauge shows how repressed these studies are
by english speaking nations. Primitivism is about keeping it
simple and obvious. Translating the ancients temple teachings carved in
stone, one remembers that they also were aware the common sense need for
this.
This is a repost from g+ of my focusing my thoughts on a great big problem in society, namely the use of strawman arguments by superiority complex type abusers. To help this process I only copied my own posts here which are excerpts from the conversation, you can read that if the thread hasn't been deleted by clicking the link. This is part two; part one was deleted from G+ before i could copypaste it due to breakdown in communications between conversationalists.
I have had multiple out of body experiences, I am clairaudient, and none
of that is easily provable with science. I have recorded my dialogue
with ghosts onto audio format in a random public place that could not
have been rigged, and with witnesses. However to present the evidence
now - it would be easy to countefeit the same evidence, only those who
lived through and understood the shared experience know for a fact that
it is real.
I agree wholly with your rationale; i have not done
experiments to prove the reality of australia, therefore it might be a
conspiracy. The same applies for most experiments, for most science. It
is a religion. Its devotees go on faith that their priests are honorable
and accurate.
I have also been trained in scientific methodology
which has not changed since franciscan friar roger bacon invented it in
the thirteenth century, according to the history books.
When
quantum science experiments tell us that one of the most fundamental
particles reacts to human intention and belief, it underminds the
absolutists, who of course refute it.
Like it or not, we are
involved in paradigm warfare. The zombi herds eat fluoride and radiate
dogma waves into the electrosphere while facebook like button indicates
which pop stars behaviour therefore belief structure holds dominion.
The affect of that on eg; higgs bosons, remains unexplored despite academic theoretical physics telling us that it is related.
At
that point we fail to accept the limitations of science as a tool for
dealing with or explaining a much more complex reality, as equally as we
fail to accept our own ineptitude in comprehending what sicience is
telling us is going on. Yet it still soaks up most of the planetary
budget through secret black box projects but that also is labeled
conspiracy theory by fundamentalists.
Conclusion The dead end
model of science promoted to the masses is purposefully inaccurate and
contradictory, as a smokescreen to the real situation.
I'm too
busy watching ufo with my own eyes that look like the ones on youtube
home footage, and figuring out how to build them, to pursue this
further.
on and for the record I am not a science denier. Prove to me that it is
real science, teach me how it works in a language I can comprehend, and I
will accept. But ask me to believe a theory is a fact, show me forgable
evidence instead of proof, and I will prove you to be a fool. Do not
misquote me without at least this disclaimer.
What I keep coming back to is;
what is the qualifier of accepting belief? Our judgement relies on it,
and it is different for different people, from which result different
reality versions of how the cause and the effect are connected.
Tesla:
rotation of planetary body generates energy field, a sphere which
pushes matter toward the center. Hence planet hence gravity as
propulsion.
Newton: mass of planetary body pulls less dense items toward it, hence gravity as attraction.
The cause in these two paradigms varies but the effect is the same.
What
is the qualifier by which we choose one paradigm and not the other?
This yes, that no, the mechanism by which we guage likelihood and accept
as fact.
What is it? We can see that it is not an absolute although we generally regard it to be one even when people change their mind about it.
Is reality entirely built on probabilities? Is it probable that there is always an exception that proves the rule?
Shroedingers cat experiment. Some scientists now claim they can see both states at the same time.
it is good to meet others who can see the difference between working
theory and religious assumption of superiority. Only open minds can see
the farthest horizons.
with respect, i never ever said that i dispute the existence of
black holes. The only two times i mentioned them at all is to ask
someone if they had seen photographs of black holes eating stars, and to
ask openly if black holes eat dark matter.
While i do appreciate
your reply, i would appreciate it more if people did not put words into
my mouth, this is called a strawman argument and that itself is the
very problem at hand; people lack the clarity to be real scientists
because of reliance on strawman arguments as a reflex response. People
seem to judge me as being an idiot for this.
People also judge me
as being an idiot for asking questions which they themselves cannot
answer. This is the culture, well at least this is the social media
networking culture, of variable-intelligensia discussing popular
scientific issues.
Very few seem to have any awareness that my
purpose for asking such questions might be other than my own lack of
knowledge about the topic at hand.
I did not mean to offend you
by suggesting the non existence of your homeland. I used that as an
example, to deconstruct methods of thinking that are used by the
variable-intelligensia and yet which upon analysis are revealed to be
far from a scientific approach. How someone can ever hope to achieve
lucid and exact results from crooked thinking, quite often when one is
unaware that one is even thinking crookedly - it has worried me
sufficiently that I put the time into raising awareness of this issue.
This
agenda will achieve more than these groups will ever achieve
scientifically as 99% of what is discussed is regurgitated from other
sources and fought over like temple dogs.
I believe that people
who are interested in science should at least understand and use
scientific mindset in their discussions. Science sets itself as a
benchmark for clarity in determining what reality is, it is a pity that
its fans so often fall short of that mark in their community relations.
Only when we achieve that level can we discuss these matters with integrity.
My social experiment of 20 years has drawn to its conclusion.
METHOD 1: aim for marriage.
This does not get you a steady girlfriend.
Women regard this as 'desperate to be married' and that you to have mother issues.
This does not get you laid.
This probably could easily get you a fat, ugly and/or abusive steady partner but that is no guarantee of happiness.
METHOD 2: aim for one night stand.
This does not get you a steady girlfriend.
It does get you laid. Not every time but often.
50% of them are difficult to get rid of afterward.
If you let it drag on longer than a week they start talking about marriage.
The ones who walk away would probably be awesome steady girlfriends except they would stray.
Enjoy it for what it is and don't look back. You're allowed to its the 21st century after all.
METHOD 3: let her choose you.
This will get you into an abusive relationship faster than you can blink.
METHOD 4: aim for 'I don't want anybody right now'.
This makes no difference whatsoever to anybody except yourself.
Women whose advances you reject will tell their friends that you are gay and tell the police that you raped them.
METHOD 5: aim for 'you can't have me, I'm already taken'.
This gets you laid by several of the wrong people, most of whom are already in steady relationships they don't plan on ending.
They will be totally understanding if/as/when you end it,
but they might also tell everyone you're gay and tell the police or their husband that you tried to rape them.
METHOD 6: physically take someone whether they are single or in a relationship already.
This gets you a steady long term partner.
It does depend on who you take;
if she agreed to meet you for a second time then it's safe.
if she agreed to meet you for a third or fourth time before you make a move, either she will lose interest or see Method 2 and 3.
Seems crazy but that's how it works.
People might choose to complain about the results of this experiment but in practicality, it is how it works. This is based on repeated experiences with all of the above categories.
So I showed this to my platonic older woman friend and she asked "what are you trying to prove?"
I don't know why these thoughts go through my head nor the overwhelming compulsion to write it all down. Perhaps the intensity of focus of childhood training to be an academic artist is having a flashback a quarter of a century later. This is my New Year 2014 essay, first draft and likely to be the only draft. Enjoy.
The rejection of culture in favour of the real.
Why Art Died. The most difficult task as an artist of this, post post modern generation, is accepting that it has all been done already. The problem is that his leaves us nothing to do, but rebuild what others have already done, to grow within their grooves and entrench them deeper or to strike out painfully against it, branches of branches, and be unaccepted by a majority verdict who cannot any longer cope with newness. Newness is unrecognised, regarded as strangeness and alienated. To fulfil our dream visions we become samplists, taking pre-made and recombining them in different ways, all of which are `already done - it becomes a personal journey of slavery to continuing through the process, the work becomes about an individual and their relationship with dogmatic process, it is ego based despite the lie of spirituality discoverable through permeation of living out someone else's fantasies. We paint by numbers now or we are outcast. I chose outcast art to keep it real and I discovered the same thing has already happened there. Artists of this generation have no original vision. This is why art died. But where did it leave the artists? Needing to create as deeply as needing to breathe, painting pretty pictures for commercial consumer market. The minimalist aesthetic is powerful in simplicity and elegance at this time; rejection of the overly complicated. This demands simple things which people can relate to and avoidance of challenging non-conformist art, difficult to relate to without being forced to ignore it as shit or develop as a thinker. The place of art in social reform relegated entirely to banner logo, psychologically engineered backdrops for taking your money.
Neo-Primitivism. In the desert there is only one way of survival. From this wilderness we came and to it we return endlessly for inspiration. It is not the void into which we bulk dump all our problems. It is the training ground, the start, the source of lifestyle. Once having established water-hole, shelter and fire we hunt and gather and develop agriculture, farming our needs. Primitivism is this; and it is as yet unbiased as to the boundaries of wild nature. Thus it deals directly with the spirit world. Here art has its place since the act of creation attracts such energies, imaginal realms wrought into flesh and substance. Clay effigies, wood carved deities, painted skins to evoke spirits to perform our worldly takes and duties. Here in the wilderness of the city where insect and weed find cracks in the dead concrete, tarmac, glass of our constructed environment, such spirits are no less available. Here they are spirits of toxin, plastic, chemical, human ways of repeating the dogma endlessly without questioning why we behave so and even once questioned, cannot break these routine cycles of existence. Here divorced from nature we epitomise ourselves, locked into artificial caves, purchase plastic wrapped artificial foodstuffs and watch a filtered version of reality through television. We return to the roots, the heartbeat, the walking rhythm, to break us from these niches. This itself becomes our way.
Chinese Year of the Water Snake, 2013. i sat in a tea shop with two friends. One, born in the year of the Wood Snake thirteen years before me, an expert in astrology. The other, born year of the Earth Snake thirteen years after me, a painter. I was born in 1977 year of the Fire Snake. The astrologer told me this (2013) is my lucky year, or perhaps next year. Such a meeting surely proves it!
Certainly i know that given the end of the Mayan long-count calendar reputedly 21.12.2012 that 2013 is regarded Year Zero, a year outside of time before the beginning of the next cycle. We deserve a year out. Many other calendar priests argue there is no such thing as a year zero, that 2013 is properly measured as year One. Right now with global events and our lives being what they are, most of us agree that we need a year out and the concept is too good to miss celebrating for what it is. Redundant now as i type this it is 24.12.2013, it's drawing to a close whichever calendar you are on.
Tonight i have been researching in the internet and ten minutes ago i discovered a manuscript (see pictures) which has made me laugh deeply. It is an extract from the Introduction to (the 1964 Dover reproduction of 7th Ganesh & Co edition of ) THE SERPENT POWER, The Secrets of Tantric and Shaktic Yoga, by Arthur Avalon (Sir John Woodroffe); first published in 1919 (which was before one of four existing copies of the Popul Vuh was pulled from the Nuremberg book burnings during Second World War by a brave German officer) so it could later be translated).
The Naqshbandi Sufi are the largest Sufi school allied to Islam. Sufism predates Islam and not all of its schools are Islamic. What i learned of Sufism outside direct tutorship of non-islamic Sufi came from studying the writing of Idries Shah. This is not why i began this blog.
"the correspondences … between Asiatic Sastra and … Maya Scripture …"
This is why i began this blog. My online existence is a glimpse at evidence of my more extensive research, that i have been reading mayan carvings and that they teach the same teaching, through their picto-glyphs, as i have previously discovered by translating Egyptian stone carvings through their hieroglyphs!
"Hurakan" or lightning is Kundalini, and the centres are depicted by animal glyphs."
If i had read this book, i probably would not have been doing so much research of my own, assuming 'other scholars' to have achieved the same result a century ago.
Not only has discovering this manuscript reminded me that it is time i wrote up some of my discoveries between feather strands as gradients, precise frequencies measurable (as kHz) so far as our extra-sensory use of chakra mesh/matrix/grid emanations/rays is concerned; it has given me a focus in further research which animals relate to which chakras in the Mayan codice. All these glyphs work multi sense; the do not only speak of the individuals energy field, they speak also of the maths that describes time and space harmonics.
Many of my colleagues this past few decades so feared the grid they sought to distort their own energy fields as much as possible to avoid being pre-empted and betrayed in some way. We need to balance to achieve ascent, we need to ascend to achieve balance. We cannot avoid returning Karma. The ones who battled fate postponed it thus causing more aberration and more karma. It all crunches at the crunch point. And all waveforms are collapsing; the real node point spoken of by the Mayans (2012 alignment prophecy) is very close now, the next few months.
i bought the book and it seems, as my tools are coming as i need them, that this year i will finally be given time to study properly, for which i am deeply grateful.
My introduction to Kundalini came as a natural progression from my since-childhood interest and studies of chakras. in a bookshop in Glastonbury a hand made publication found me, from the OMS called Fire Serpent written by High Priest Victor Corva Penfold, a Romany shaman of the London gypsyry. i bought it along with two other manuscripts available of the five he wrote. It teaches magical sex rituals; studying them with my then partner, we discovered that they work.
In the fourteen years since separating from her, i have not since found any partner willing and interested enough to resume my studies into this. Neither have i met anyone else who achieved that level of percept into reality and through these techniques, which do not seem to be of public knowledge, do not appear available in the internet and are not known of by the official multinational OMS organisation which Victa was involved with, disconcertingly they have told me via email that they do not know who he is. i can only assume that either people are unwilling to talk about this level of reality with fellow adepts or that the existing organisation has forgotten the name of its founding member as well as his core teaching.
Additional 28.12.13:
Only today did the information between 2.13.07 and 2.16.40 on the following video come to me, and it is with perfect timing to round off this blog (posted a few days ago) - it is exactly what I have been talking about here.
For the past 72 hours I have done nothing but drink coffee and make 3D city inside cyberspace. By use of specific materials; light-cursive glass and reflective steel, the cloned square blocks become vortexes, one bouncing off the other ad infinitum, warping like a hall of mirrors. I simply cannot wait to get this hooked up to a VR headset and immerse myself completely.
It is like lego for computer junky grown-ups. Copypaste & Stack. Zoom and Tilt Angle. This is how I have been sorting my head out. I am very aware of the metaphysician approach to language here from the deconstructionist perspective.
I generated the following cityscapes after watching my friend Rachel Dolphindark lovingly explore InSilico district of SecondLife.
What is the proper correct terminology for "cyber urban" ?
The two words almost mirror one another.
Welcome to Cyburbia...
featuring my balcony & scaffolding, Evesham Road
What is most surprising is how similar this digitally generated space and imagery is to paintings done by my contemporary at Cheltenham Art School between '96 and '99 with whom it was my great honour to share a lot of things. Paul Cummings interest in cyber design as shown in examples of his early work here.
Speak both words and imagine that the concepts have diverged due to colloquial accents for the past several hundred years, from a common root idea.
In western astrology, planetary influence of Saturn is associated with TIME.
It is often depicted as an aged man with a long beard.
In practical terms it has more to do with the gridding effect of sequences into a linear structure. (Apopholyte is a gemstone that does this to the electromagnetic particle energy of its surroundings and to the numeric pulse rhythms of any other gemstones in the proximity also, it has some similar properties to Christite - take note how these words both seem in fitting with the language of the christian religions, revealing hidden depths of meaning in its jargon from before the religious aspect took over, markedly during the Gregorian reformation of the 17th century).
I am sure you are familiar with Revelations message of the number of the Beast 666, which "during the end times shall be imprinted on all things".
Relax, it is talking about the end of the Piscean era for which Christianity was originally envisaged as a guide before the dark forces of slavery systematically perverted it. The phrase 'End Times' refers to the religion having served its purpose and being no longer relevant because a better and more relevant approach to spiritual insight will replace it during the Aquarian era - which we are now into.
I mention about 666 being imprinted on everything for this reason:
24 hour clock
60 minutes per hour
60 seconds per minute
This is called 12:60 timescale, it is only one of many possible grid systems for measuring time, one that we are taught is 'satanic' in the 'devil' sense of the word. Indeed it is a far shout from organic natural 13:20 that everything else in the galaxy resonates with.
2+4 = 6
6+0 = 6
6+0 = 6
tonal= 666
Now 'check the time' on your digital watch, computer, cellphone, if you want to grid yourself to a slavery system. An artificial structure designed to cause stress to your biological, emotional and mental functions. That is why it is regarded as 'the devils work'.
"Welcome to the summer of dread. The conservative party's dreams of an England culturally cleansed of 'hippies', 'crusties', 'soap-dodgers' and 'scroungers'. A countryside reclaimed for picnicking Lebensraum for decent suburban folk. A rural idyll unspoiled by dreadlocked, bearded, unwashed, social deviants who will be forced back into the inner-city cesspits from whence they crawled... this is no deranged fascist wet dream. This is the culmination of a determined effort to crush and destroy a multi-cultural, empowering activist lifestyle for no other reason than the besuited gentlemen farmers and merchant bankers of the Conservative Party find it offensive."
2013ad is Year Zero by the Mayan long count. The backdrop of the rise of a fascist state in Britain, two and three generations after my ancestors fought two consecutive world wars to prevent such a thing from happening. A return to Law is required while there is still time, now two years before the 800th anniversary of the signing of the Magna Carta which established in writing a legal system based on the Common Law of our Ancestors (Do not Steal, Do not cause Harm, Do not use trickery, and Keep the Peace) that has become increasingly corrupt and ignored ever since. We are long overdue for and in desperate need of a reformation. The near future will be one of political reform.
This summer I was fortunate to take time out of my research and educational work, to be a part of the four day long Green Man festival in the black mountains of Wales. It is located on an ancient riverbed and halfway up the hillside.
One thing that I did notice during the festival, living in high energy nature and away from Babylon, the urban wilderness, cellphone and wifi radiation, is that my sperm production has doubled!
Green Man is the best organised, cleanest festival I have ever been to, although it has been nearly fifteen years since the last big festival I went to, other than the occasional free party and traveller rave during my twenties. Green Man is safe for kids and has a lot of facilities for them, divided into 'younger' and 'older' categories (toddlers/pre-teens and pre-teens/teens in two separate zones). The site is gorgeous! Open spaces as important as music stages, food and trinket shops. Some of the trees here in a grove between the healing field and the main circuits are otherworldly.
Main things; my 3 year old got to see Patti Smith live!
Unfortunately I missed Julian Cope (Teardrop Explodes & the Modern Antiquarian) speaking due to the festi timetable being a fiver more than I had.
The drum workshop was amazing, smoke-filled-bubbles machine, heated showers, toilets cleaned twice a day, every food tent a different nationality from African souk to hippy chai, fresh fried fish and quinoa to full english breakfast.
Many thousands of people living communally, a state of original-sense anarchy (not needing government) with not one policeman on site throughout; surely this alone says it all.
I walked around the festi where there were many dreadlocks feeling at home, being respected and smiled at simply for their presence, in my mind floated the phrase 'the gathering of tribes' from a 1999 exhibition 'a century of fashion' which predicted a culture that has become relevant now.
I was at Glastonbury festival at Pilton in the year of the mud (and I still have green toenails from it despite wearing Doc Martens at the time, as trained by my early teenage years of Riot Grrl / Grunge generation vying with Goth and Reggae for my attention before becoming a full blown festi-born new-age traveller as now forever stereotyped). That pre-millenial festival was regarded by many at a time of global tsunami and maelstrom flooding to be Mother Earth speaking; remember what you are, remember nature! Walking barefoot at the Green Man I very soon got back into the festi spirit, watching/feeling several grids of the different festi spirits as they arranged coincidental experiences, time-synced events and meetings while everything falls into its own natural harmonic.
The Green Man is Renewal cycle of nature; a british deity symbolized by an oak-leaf faced man. To many this signifies Druidism in its honorific state and the association with Oak Trees, of which are many and ancient on the Glanusk Estate in where the festival has been located for the past three of its ten years; although Celts have been worshipping the Green Man for countless generations, it is one of the earliest recorded traditional british imagery seen on pagan artefacts, so important that like Sheela Na Gig it was absorbed into British christian temple carvings prior to the Gregorian reformation.
The cycle of renewal. It was followed by a hard minimal techno set the likes of which I haven't seen for a decade either, and which helped inspired me to get into making my own techno music.

3.9.13 Evidently I came back from the Green Man festival feeling a strong political message! Time has flown by since and I have not had time to sit down, look through the photo's and finish this blog until today.
I wash my dredlocks twice a week, once with water and once with knotty boy organic dredlock soap, one bar of which lasts roughly six months if thats all you do with it.
Some people don't wash their dreds at
all, apparently I over-wash them. As a consequence my dredlocks are dry
as brittle hay, so I researched on the internet into methods to
rejuvenate them.
Can't use wax because it binds dirt into the core of the dred for ever. Can't use chemicals because it deconditions the hair even worse. Henna is great for refreshing damaged hair but again, dirt in the core.
I don't have any coconut butter until that arrives for me to experiment with, so for today it comes down to herbal washes to add oil back into the dry hair.
I have been growing rosemary in my herb garden and have plenty of it, so this blog is really about the seemingly obvious process of cutting it, cleansing it, shredding it, simmering it in water for five minutes, potting the juice until it cools (as a fresh organic substance it goes mouldy if you don't freeze it to store it), and in this case soaking it into my drylocks and allowing it to naturally dry.
The juice tastes bitter and oily; oilyness that swirls around in the pot as it cools. This is the oil I need to get into my hair!
After watching and learning some of his daddy's herbalism my 3 year old helped me immensely by pouring the luke-warm juice onto my dreds, which hopefully will help him overcome his dislike of having his own hair washed.
In fantasy role-playing games
there is a contrast between ‘good’ Lawful magic and ‘evil’ Chaos magic. In real
life the development of magickal systems is somewhat less decisive.
A brief history of Chaos Magick
In the latter half of the
twentieth century, Peter Carroll co-founder of the Illuminaries of Thanateros
(sex and death) published Psychonaut and Libre Null outlining chaos magick
theory and establishing a new system for magickal results that dispenses with
dogma of previous systems such as those of the Hermetic Tradition dating back
thousands of years through classical Greek to ancient Aegyptian. Carrolls
development followed Austin O Spares development of a useful functional
sigilism system after his having had some dealing with Aliester Crowley’s
reinvention of the Order of the Golden Dawn.
This stuff works. Use of
perception and especially altered perception to change external reality by
focused power of Belief. Rituals are order-of-the-day, utilizing whatever
symbology and concepts are available at the time. This is neither black, nor
white, because it is beyond such polarization. It is about Change.
“Chaos magick affords the
magician the kind of freedom to be able to use anything that is desired in
magick, regardless of its origin or structure. Gnosis in chaos magick is a form
of Intent that creates the path in the mind necessary for the Will to enact
what the magician wants to create. The use of the Will for a formula for
success.” Venus Satanus
By Year Zero (2013ad) the
language used by Carroll is dated. For example, his use of the word ‘desire’
for ‘intent’ has a theological bias at contrast with integration of the
Buddhist related school, wherein desire actively blocks us from true
perception. While this was not Carrolls concern (he discusses the two paradigms
being mutually exclusive and defends it well), it is important as Chaos Magick
theory and philosophy develops. One cannot be a successful psychonaut while
ignoring the importance and validity of the uses and training of mind which the
Zen has to offer, especially since no-mind is the objective of both, as it is
for the Mayan sorcerers pursuit of objective observation.
The problem all practitioners
face is the overwhelming dogma projected by existing group mind, the collective
consciousness. Methods for liberating the mind from attachment to such dogma
becomes the major focus of the practitioner. This relates to what Don Matus
taught Don Carlos about ‘the sorcerers of old’ who would perform any number of
extreme atrocities attempting to achieve results.

Human society out there is fucked. It is so full of mind programmes to
screw you up, to screw up positive relationships. Most of it is about
insecurity and control, domination and doubt. Most of it is about
Slavery. It affects us all.
Our ancestors were proud human beings. They were dealing with real issues. They were pragmatic realists.
We here have decided to remember our roots. We are proud human beings.
We are strong enough to do what it takes to get things right, within our
group of people.
We cannot change government. But we can change
ourselves and our immediate community. This is done with Positivity,
with Love, and with Acceptance.
In any tribal community there are
wisdom keepers, there are natural leaders. I do not want to be a leader.
I am doing what I must do to heal the social sickness. This statement
is a part of that.
Our primary goal is for everyone to be happy.
Our primary goal is for the kids to be safe, so they can teach us a
purer insight than we can access from our compromised integrities.
Humans are a tribal species, it is how we are designed to thrive. We
look up to indigenous tribal communities for the wisdoms that we have
forgotten, so we can implement them into western societies.
There
is a simple human rule in any tribal group; if you are not working for
the good of the tribe, then you are not part of the tribe. Other than
this, the generally accepted Common Law of our Ancestors is as follows;
Keep the Peace, do not harm, steal or use trickery. This should be all
we need to live successfully as a prosperous community. Any problems
where they are not resolved from inside the group harmony, are from
outside of it. There is an old maxim; together we win, divided we fall.
This is the uprising of Human Culture amidst a toxic consumerist
debt-slavery system.
Our contexts and our concepts must be changed,
as part of the transition. The goal is sustainable permaculture and
community support. Any thought or feeling that becomes an action should
be one of positive energy, we are stripping our world of negativity by
sidelining the sociopaths. This is a survival necessity.

Cognitive Dissonance is a mental health disorder where the
sufferer prefers to believe the dogma of la-la-land, rather than to accept
reality, even when reality presents valid proof that the situation is the way
it is.
When a person has been recognized as suffering from
cognitive dissonance, we must re-evaluate them as a mental health sufferer, no
matter what position they hold in society and no matter who or what they
themselves believe themselves to be.
Cognitive Dissonance undermines all sense of self as authority, despite job
title, income, etc. It is officially recognized as a real mental health
disorder. It is rampant in many western cultures, to the extent that ‘mental
plague’ is a valid phrase in establishing what is going on in our communities,
and in shifting from one paradigm (culturally repressed) to another (accepting
a wider reality).
When a doctor misdiagnosed my father as having indigestion,
which later turned out to be bowel cancer, a normal person would consider the
doctor be at fault. The doctor defends this by replying that he simply did what
his computer told him, diagnosing the ailment according to the database.
A sane person would not return to use the same doctor.
Following this, my father returned to the same doctor and
told him that I hear voices. “My son hears voices” were the exact words he
used. Then my father forced me into going to see the doctor. I objected on the
basis that the doctor misdiagnosed him and therefore I do not trust this doctor’s
professional opinion.
The doctor said to me; “I have been informed that you hear
voices.”
Very laterally I replied; “how can I respond to that other than in the
affirmative?” By which I meant that my ears are working fine, or I would not
have heard his voice as he told me his statement.
“That is a classic textbook symptom of schizophrenia. I am
now referring you to the local mental health team.”
What the? I was too shocked to respond at the time.
The mental health team visited me one by one to get their
head around me.
First, the Witch (wearing square shoes, gloves and purple eyes, as described in Roald
Dahl’s book the Witches. Possibly she wore purple contact lenses.) listened to
me relate about how I had been stressed recently because I had been gang
stalked, by a crew who were so inept that I have photographs of them. I went to
the police about it and the desk sergeant jovially told me it was probably the
undercover police themselves who were following me. No help there then.
The Witch told me that she believed I was lying. Although
like everyone she is free to believe anything she wants, I was immediately
suspicious of her intent. I offered to show her the photographs and she told me
it was not necessary and that she would write in her report that I am a
prolific liar.
I recognized both that she was abusive in her position and that she suffers
from cognitive dissonance and should therefore be regarded as mentally ill and
functionally unstable, so much as it had affected her work related objectivity.
I reported this exact statement by telephone to the secretary of the mental
health team, who told me I would not have to see the woman again, they would
send a different person to analyze me. I am always a little upset at use of the
word analyze because it is so similar to an adjective describing bum sex, and
so far I most definitely felt that the system was fucking me up the arse.
A week later the Pusher arrived to ask me why I had given up
smoking cannabis. I explained that I no longer needed it, the addiction was
affecting my life too much, and the irony was that it was not until after I had
quit that I began being followed by inept gang stalkers who the police were
claiming worked for them. I assume this situation to be the vendetta of my
ex-dealer for leaving his syndicate, or simply sods law.
The Pusher asked if I had ever heard of the psychedelic
rainbow, with basic soft drugs at one end and far out cosmic shit at the other
end. He explained to me that the new skunkweed was as powerful as LSD and thought
it was a shame that I had picked this time to quit smoking weed.
I wondered if he was taking the piss, or testing me, or was
genuinely into this stuff. I told him that I had left the drug scene and was
confused by his attempts to woo me back into it given that he is a state worker
in his official capacity and that the state are at war on drugs; despite
Holland shutting down prisons because their 20 years of decriminalized cannabis
means there is much less crime in their country, because as everyone agrees,
cannabis has helped strengthen the community awareness. Compared with Britain
where reliance on criminal behaviour increases the police industry which
strengthens the government. At that time the Home Secretary Teresa May had not
yet issued a public statement, quote; “We are policed by consent” to which most
sane members of the community chant in chorus; “I do not consent to be
governed!”
I told him that CBD is a component of cannabis that is shown in
independent trials to cure mental health disorders such as the alleged
schizophrenia misdiagnosis, wheras THC is the component known to cause altered and expanded states of perception utilized by shamen for many thousands of years the world over. Given that I had previously been ingesting CBD, shown to cure schizophrenia, why did the mental health computer tell them that cannabis actually causes schizophrenia. He could not answer this.
The Pusher then offered me three pharmaceutical drugs.
First, Seroxat; I explained how I happen to know a guy who successfully sued
the NHS for prescribing him that shit, when tests have shown it to make people
suicidal and depressed, and that is why it is now illegal. Obviously his
department has a stockpile of it to get rid of.
He offered me a different chemical the name of which I forgot, the side effect
of which would cause me to grow boobs and lactate. Momentarily I wondered if he
was trying to get me into some kinky bisexual fetish. I declined this drug on
the basis that I do not really wish to be taking drugs that have a more severe
effect on me than the ones which I had previously managed to quit, and also
that sounds like a pretty fucked up drug.
So he offered
me a third drug, the side effects of which are audio hallucinations.
I asked him what good it would do, giving someone who is misdiagnosed because
he hears voices as audio hallucinations, a chemical that would cause him to
hear audio hallucinations. Respectfully I declined on the basis that I really
would like to be able to tell which are the real imaginary voices from which
are the fake imaginary voices, and asked that he write in his report that my
answer should be construed as a sign of someone of sane mind. I do not know if
he did, I have not been able to get a copy of any of these reports because the
NHS claim they have lost my case file.
I spoke with the secretary of the mental health team and
requested that I do not have to deal with the Pusher again on the basis that he
is cognitive dissonant if he thinks the stuff he was telling me was in any way
sane and rational. A week later they sent me Dr Bye, who was lovely except that
she and my father were old friends, sharing jokes and causing me to wonder what
was going on behind the scenes between these two that I was not privy to. She
treated me respectfully with an empathic sincerity that I appreciated,
listening without judging, not making stupid comments and simply being really
good at her job, so it seemed. Professional and by the book. She got me in
contact with a social worker who was brilliant, who managed to get me the
benefits I was actually entitled to which doubled my income, and helped me take
ATOS to court after they threw me off of benefits because they didn’t believe
the diagnosis either.
I asked all three of these mental health professionals
exactly which textbook is it that describes the symptoms of hearing voices to
be schizophrenia, rather than ‘not deaf’. Nobody has ever answered me that to
date.
At around this time, the BBC in conjunction with the NHS
made a short documentary about schizophrenia, which I did not see but I did
read their booklet to accompany the documentary, and it states that one of the
symptoms of schizophrenia is the denial of being schizophrenic. This means that
anybody who claims they are not schizophrenic is exhibiting symptoms of being
schizophrenic. This is lateral thinking, which in laymans terms means ‘stating
the obvious’ or ‘telling it as it is’. Any notion of a hidden or layered
subtext and of referential discourse in relation to the schizophrenia sufferer
is highly valid and relevant merely by its use, in terms of having two
different types of cognitive awareness occurring simultaneously. Lacking in any
proper definition of what schizophrenia is (as all of the state experts seem to
do), the phrase ‘having two different types of cognitive awareness occurring
simultaneously’ itself takes on an interesting and extremely contrary meaning.
At this point I wave the Cognitive Dissonance flag again. After another session attended by both my social worker and Dr Bye, during which I spoke about the reality of extra-dimensional beings, magick and how nobody had yet asked me about childhood abuse that might be the root cause of any mental health problems I could be perceived to be suffering, I was released from assessment observation with the words "not in need of psychiatric counseling." It is now officially documented that I do not need psychiatric counseling. I am one of very few people in this category; everyone else is suspect.
It is my belief that all of this has occurred so that my
paranoid and manipulative father can attempt to discredit me because I was a
risk to his divorce proceedings after witnessing him snogging his colleague in
a pub doorway during the six months prior to all this. He also told me afterward that Dr Bye is now dead so there is no point in me trying to contact her again.
It is my Common Law Right, believing and asserting myself to be of sane
mind, that I am a conscientious and empathic Adult; and
as the only true representative of myself, having never granted right
of attorney to any other, to make a PUBLIC NOTIFICATION on and for the
record, that:
I do not suffer from schizophrenia as alleged; that any
such claim having been made was an act of misdiagnosis and professional
misconduct, with myself positioned as injured party.
Furthermore, I
hereby assert myself and by my own words to be a sane and sensible, educated natural Human being. Given the above, and in context of the prevailance of Cognitive Dissonance mental health
disorder running unchecked in this society, I hereby assume the role of both Adult and Alpha Male, with accumulated life experience beyond and outside of the limited and limiting belief structure of the majority of individuals with whom I interact or am likely to interact with.
"Like computers, human brains may be vulnerable to hackers. Technology is already allowing scientists to read people's thoughts and even plant new ones in the brain."
These are the exact same sort of statements that I was making, which gave my father the idea to tell his doctor that I was 'hearing voices'. Whether my own brain has been hacked is apparently open to public question.
The following photographs from pre-2008. This is the crew who were gang-stalking me. I could hardly believe my eyes when I came out of the post office to see all of them there in a huddle! Lucky I had my camera phone with me.
