184 - Suburban Transpondency (Fri, 06 Jan 2012)

Is nostalgic sentimentality the condition of a self which in its distance has grown indifferent to things & is therefore only capable of the most superficial kind of emotion, only capable of being moved in the instant, only capable of cheap, theatrical sentimentality? ~ from Technology as symptom and dream by Robert Donald Romanyshyn

“Every age creates as an Utopian image a nostalgic rear-view mirror image of itself, which puts it thoroughly out of touch with the present. The present is the enemy. The present is the—and this will delight you Norman—the present is only faced in any generation by the artist. The artist is prepared to study the present as his material because it is the area of challenge to the whole sensory life, and therefore it is anti-Utopian, it is a world of anti-values. And the artist who comes into contact with the present produces an avant-garde image that is terrifying to his contemporaries.” ~ Marshall McLuhan

from Mixtape of the Lost Decade by Rob Beschizza, University of Rockall

The Phantom Time Hypothesis, developed by Heribert Illig, proposes that error and falsification have radically distorted the historical record. In his analysis, we have dilated the course of true events, so that they appear to cover far greater lengths of time than in fact passed. The so-called dark ages, for example, only appear that way because those centuries were mere decades.

Respectable historians give this idea no credence. Rightly so, because the truth is even stranger. It is not the case that we have invented historical periods that do not exist. In truth, there are ages which we have so completely forgotten that modern textbooks exclude them entirely. In our research, we have identified at least three such periods.

Firstly, there appear to be several decades unaccounted for during the fifth century A.D., which may reveal the true circumstances of the Western Empire's final decline. Secondly, it is clear to us that the Mongols invaded northern Europe and conquered the Holy Roman Empire in the 13th century. The astounding deathtoll, and that of the crusades that subsequently dislodged the invaders, is now attributed to the plague.

Finally, evidence is mounting that points to a "lost decade" between what we now remember as the 1970s and 1980s, a time whose full cultural trauma and resulting suppression from memory was so complete as to effect itself even on the living.

Some of those who have recovered seek to reveal the secret history through unusual media such as fashionable tumblogs and private filesharing forums. By sharing elements of an intricate and rigorous symbology drawn from this interstitial history, this cabal works quietly to prepare us to learn the truth and its astonishing consequences...

1. The terminus ad quem of the interstitial history is identified by the earliest-dated reference to it the esoterica: footage broadcast in the early hours of the morning on an obscure television station to commemorate (in the 'new' timeline) the date that the "lost decade" was brought to an end.

2. Finally revealed, terms such as "19A0s" can now be searched for and uncovered in countless seemingly innocuous documents archived online, exposing them as critical ciphertexts of the movement.

"The night of December 25, to which date the Nativity of Christ was ultimately assigned, was exactly that of the birth of the Persian savior Mithra, who, as an incarnation of eternal light, was born the night of the winter solstice (then dated December 25) at midnight, the instant of the turn of the year from increasing darkness to light." ~ Joseph Campbell

179 - Suburban Transpondency (Sat, 22 Oct 2011)

The point is to make something new, something that doesn’t even remotely remind you of culture.

Forget all the standard art forms—don’t paint pictures, don’t make poetry, don’t build architecture, don’t arrange dances, don’t write plays, don’t compose music, don’t make movies, and above all don’t think you’ll get a happening by putting all these together.

“I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.” -- Alan Watts

Marshall McLuhan discusses Harold Innis's idea of time and space...

"Industrialism implies technology and the cutting of time into precise fragments suited to the needs of the engineer and the accountant." -- Harold Innis

"To the philosophers of India, however, Relativity is no new discovery, just as the concept of light years is no matter for astonishment to people used to thinking of time in millions of kalpas, (A kalpa is about 4,320,000 years). The fact that the wise men of India have not been concerned with technological applications of this knowledge arises from the circumstance that technology is but one of innumerable ways of applying it." -- Alan Watts

“Time is a measure of energy, a measure of motion. And we have agreed internationally on the speed of the clock. And I want you to think about clocks and watches for a moment. We are of course slaves to them. And you will notice that your watch is a circle, and that it is calibrated, and that each minute, or second, is marked by a hairline which is made as narrow as possible, as yet to be consistent with being visible.

And when we think of a moment of time, when we think what we mean by the word “now”; we think of the shortest possible instant that is here and gone, because that corresponds with the hairline on the watch. And as a result of this fabulous idea, we are a people who feel that we don’t have any present, because the present is instantly vanishing - it goes so quickly. It is always becoming past. And we have the sensation, therefore, of our lives as something that is constantly flowing away from us. We are constantly losing time. And so we have a sense of urgency. Time is not to be wasted. Time is money. And so, because of the tyranny of this thing, we feel that we have a past, and we know who we are in terms of our past. Nobody can ever tell you who they are, they can only tell you who they were.

And we think we also have a future. And that is terribly important, because we have a naive hope that the future is somehow going to supply what we are looking for. You see, if you live in a present that is so short that it is not really here at all, you will always feel vaguely frustrated.”

Alan Watts, British philosopher, writer, and speaker (1915-1973)

"At instant speeds, everybody begins to live inside a 360-degree module in which every event echoes every other event back and forth at electric speeds, and all events bounce off each other creating patterns. There is one optimistic feature. The mind moves very much faster than light. Light travels to Mars in minutes. The mind can go and come back from Mars in an instant many times. The mind can actually recognize all these electric patterns as easily as it can alphabetic letters. It's very much faster than the computer."

-- Marshall McLuhan in McLuhan Dissects the Executive,
Business Week Magazine, p.118, June 24, 1972.

A campfire story in a suburban parkinglot...

  • Ron & John tell the story of a camping trip encounter with Bigfoot!

Bigfoot, also known as sasquatch, is an ape-likecryptid that purportedly inhabits forests, mainly in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. Bigfoot is usually described as a large, hairy, bipedalhumanoid. The term "sasquatch" is an anglicized derivative of the word "sésquac" which means "wild man" in a SalishNative American language.

    - Marshall McLuhan

    "I think of art, at its most significant, as a DEW line, a Distant Early Warning system that can always be relied on to tell the old culture what is beginning to happen to it."
    - Marshall McLuhan

    "The medium, or process, of our time - electric technology is reshaping and restructuring patterns of social interdependence and every aspect of our personal life. It is forcing us to reconsider and re-evaluate practically every thought, every action,"
    - Marshall McLuhan

    "One of the effects of living with electric information is that we live habitually in a state of information overload. There's always more than you can cope with."
    - Marshall McLuhan

    They still think in the old patterns, 19th-century patterns, but they live mythically. They live surrounded by mythic monsters like go-go girls. [At the bar] Aren’t they going to turn that down? “Waiting for go-go.” “The medium is the message.” “Growing – growing up absurd.” The go-go girls ordinarily have a cage… [winces] while appearing to manifest their energies untrammelled, unconstrained, sound in this kind of world is not used as something to be listened to. It is a kind of foam rubber which you press against/it presses back against you, makes you feel kind of wanted. Sound, in the new world, of dance and song is not for listening. It’s for making. And so the go-go girls, locked up each in her little world, represents a kind of theatre of the absurd, in which all communication has broken down. In fact, no attempt is really made to communicate. Each puts on his own show in his own little straitjacket. - Marshall McLuhan

    One Almost Might

    Wouldn't you say,
    Wouldn't you say: one day,
    With a little more time or a little more patience, one might
    Disentangle for separate, deliberate, slow delight
    One of the moment's hundred strands, unfray
    Beginnings from endings, this from that, survey
    Say a square inch of the ground one stands on, touch
    Part of oneself or a leaf or a sound (not clutch
    Or cuff or bruise but touch with finger-tip, ear-
    Tip, eyetip, creeping near yet not too near);
    Might take up life and lay it on one's palm
    And, encircling it in closeness, warmth and calm,
    Let it lie still, then stir smooth-softly, and
    Tendril by tendril unfold, there on one's hand ...

    One might examine eternity's cross-section
    For a second, with slightly more patience, more time for reflection?

    "Like everything in life, Dada is useless... Dada is a virgin microbe." - Tistan Tzara

    We [Dadaists] are often told that we are incoherent, but into this word people try to put an insult that it is rather hard for me to fathom. Everything is incoherent… There is no logic… The acts of life have no beginning and no end. Everything happens in a completely idiotic way. That is why everything is alike. Simplicity is called Dada. Any attempt to conciliate an inexplicable momentary state with logic strikes me as a boring kind of game… Like everything in life, Dada is useless… Perhaps you will understand me better when I tell you that Dada is a virgin microbe that penetrates with the insistence of air into all of the spaces that reason has not been able to fill with words or conventions. — Tristan Tzara

    “Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us” ~ Meister Eckhart

     

    "This presentation will trace the motif of darkness from its use in mystical literature to contemporary extremophile science. It is an enigmatic and yet omni-present concept stretching back through John of the Cross, Meister Eckhart, to Dionysius the Areopagite, who talks about 'divine darkness' as a way of thinking about the unhuman. Our takeoff point, however, comes from Georges Bataille's posthumous text 'Theory of Religion,' and the way it thinks of darkness in terms of philosophical negation - not just a privative negation, but an absolute negation, one that, in order to be thought, requires the negation of philosophy itself. This idea leads Bataille to understand mysticism (and in particular darkness mysticism) as the privileged mode of non-philosophy."

    164 - Suburban Transpondency (Mon, 10 Jan 2011)

    Life is a big carnival and we are but freaks.

    • Cultural Festival of the shopping mall
    • Global Carnival Theory: inventing techno-angels
    • Windows gives me the family nature never could
    • Douglas Coupland: Player One

    Recorded live in Vancouver, Regina, Charlottetown, Ottawa and Toronto, Coupland's 2010 Massey Lectures entitled "Player One" is a real-time five-hour story set in an airport cocktail lounge during a global disaster. Five disparate people are trapped inside: Karen, a single mother waiting for her online date; Rich, the down-on-his-luck airport lounge bartender; Luke, a pastor on the run; Rachel, a beautiful young blonde incapable of true human contact; and finally a mysterious voice known only as "Player One." Slowly, each reveals the truth about her/himself while the world as s/he knows it comes to an end.

    Of Wondrous Legends is a Chicago baroque psych classic recovered from the dustbins of history. To the few who have heard it, it has earned comparisons to Tim Buckley, Pearls Before Swine , and 60s British prog-folk. O.W.L. was founded in 1968 on Chicago's north side by Stephen Titra. A founding member of the beloved midwestern hippie jam band Mountain Bus, Titra left that band just as their Dead-inspired, bluesy jams gained serious regional traction in order to fully devote himself to the inward looking, singular vision of O.W.L. O.W.L. was recorded at Chicago's Universal Studios over a six month stretch in 1971 and a handful of test pressings were produced and circulated, but despite serious interest from a number of major labels, this gem went unreleased.

    162 - Suburban Transpondency (Thu, 16 Dec 2010)

    Wikileak is a prime example of the Global Carnival

    clashing with remnants of the old Global Theatre

    *Transparency is the enemy of Drama (Postdramatic)

    Government & Democracy is a theatrical after image

    Internet dissolves all boundaries, static institutions

    Everyone is swallowed up by the digital masquarade

    "But it's all part of life's rich pageant, you know?"

    "Well, there's a question as to what sort of information is important in the world, what sort of information can achieve reform. And there's a lot of information. So information that organizations are spending economic effort into concealing, that's a really good signal that when the information gets out, there's a hope of it doing some good." - Julian Assange

    Dig! The hipster is man who's in the know, grasps everything, is alert.  

    In the vortex of the future of that cool tomorrow land,
    we'll all wig there, play a gig there, in that great non-union
    band. Scooba doo and Scooba daba. Life's a gass and life's a
    grabba. Hip is hip and groove is groovy. Life's a wild Fellini
    movie. When that hairy fist of silence slugs us, bugs us, puts us
    down... hmm, we'll all wing it, we'll all sing it: Guy Lombardos
    back in town!

    The only Supreme Being is You.


     

    If you know that "I", in the sense of the person, the front, the ego, it really doesn't exist. Then...it won't go to your head too badly, if you wake up and discover that you're God.

    157 - Suburban Transpondency (Wed, 22 Sep 2010)

    Milestone: 5 years of podcasting

    • Turning 30, digging through box to find 10 year old demo tape 
    • Songs: "Enter", "Peace Eternal", "Eventual Undergrowth"
    • Music by Sean O'Connor
    • Recorded brainstorming story ideas for "Post-apocalypic Euphoria"
    • "Environ Riot", "Foolproof Plan B", "The Plagiarist"

     

    Environ Riot

    The teen riot got a bad rap
    It was a passion a little bit confused
    We stormed the wall and crushed the cup
    We hit the nail and paved the rut
    Obscured in legend, dashed in hopes
    We upped the mountains and down the slopes
    With a fist of rage we punched it through
    We burned the bridge, now what's left to do?

    I read about the suicide
    It sunk in deep and opened my eyes
    Pathetic screams of desperate souls
    Pagan daft hate to fill in the holes
    The kettle's boiling, adrenaline's rushing
    Nostalgic kiss keeps a retro-girl blushing
    The deck is stacked, it's a surefire bet
    Fading away into a big screen sunset

    We want the whole nine yards
    Like the future is an empty dream
    We sleep all day and dance all night
    We scare the ghost and crash the kite
    It's an inhibition that we set on fire
    We're painting the town with sex and desire
    Are you on a trip? Do you feel real shitty?
    Envy-struck that your girlfriend's pretty

    It's not a miracle drug
    If the liquid isn't violent green
    You shut off the light and hang up the phone
    You open your mind and let in the unknown
    It's a vivid dream, it's a wave of dim bliss
    You wander the garden outside of the palace
    If you lose control remember what's real
    Break out the broken and deal the raw deal

    The time bomb hit the crowd hard
    It was a fire enough to light the fuse
    They crashed the car and beat the road
    They stirred the pot and rocked the boat
    Cloaked in darkness, shadowed heart
    We quit the ending and began the start
    With determination we'll be on our way
    Remember a past we call yesterday

    I wonder if I'm killing time?
    You bang the drum and wake up the night
    Anxious kids with paranoid smiles
    Cynical fear that nothing's worthwhile
    The tides are turning, these times are changing
    Everything is subject to constant rearranging
    You forget the details and alter the truth
    You label yourself a rebellious youth

    It was a deadbeat, jacked up, ass kicking hi-and-run
    It was a bonecrush, neckbreak, takedown all-in-one
    We had a counterplan attitude: ripshit, ready to go
    We had a rebel rage, street fight, punk riot, set to blow
    Confined in suburb town, bored and lost
    This revolution trend is at what cost?
    Surrounded by pavement, listless fate
    Parking lot tension, bottled up, repressed teenaged hate

    © 1997 Adam Gratrix  

    Foolproof Plan B

    I'm a rock `n' roll junkie trippin' through the country
    Jamming to a heartbeat, looking where to rest my feet
    Met a dirty talking porn star lounging in a strip bar
    "Tell ya how its gonna be", no-one makes a fool out of me
    You can pop me like a pistol, the plan is clear as crystal
    Fill in every single hole, "you say you wanna buy my soul?"

    Annihilate every shred of truth
    To make the back up plan foolproof
    We'll save the day and learn to live our lives another way
    We'll run away and live to fight again another day

    I'm a rock `n' roll reject chillin' in the projects
    Dancing to a breakbeat, sleeping here out on the street
    I gotta find a new connection, packing for protection
    In and out of alleyways, I'm gonna make it big some day
    Perpetrate extortion to save you from abortion
    I fall into a snake pit, a different day but same old shit

    Eliminate any shade of doubt
    To survive with no escape route
    We'll save the day and learn to live our lives another way
    We'll run away and live to fight again another day

    I'm a rock `n' roll convert preachin' in the suburbs
    Bitchin' to a deadbeat, waiting for a sucker to cheat
    If Jesus is my witness he minds his fucking business
    I took her to a cheap motel, everyone's got something to sell
    "My normal life is boring; the water tastes like chlorine
    I could fake a suicide and run away if you'll be my guide"

     "...the aphasia of that heroic agony of recalling a once loved number leading slip by slipper to a general amnesia of misnomering one's own: next those ars, rrrr!"

    - Finnegans Wake

     

    "The mouth that tells not will ever attract the unthinking tongue and so long as the obseen draws theirs which hear not so long till allearth’s dumbnation shall the blind lead the deaf."

    Now by memory inspired, turn wheel again to the whole of the wall. Where Gyant Blyant fronts Peannlueamoore There was once upon a wall and a hooghoog wall a was and such a wall-hole did exist. Ere ore or ire in Aaarlund. Or you Dair’s Hair or you Diggin Mosses or your horde of orts and oriorts to garble a garthen of Odin and the lost paladays when all the eddams ended with aves. Armen? The doun is theirs and still to see for menags if he strikes a lousaforitch and we’ll come to those baregazed shoeshines if you just shoodov a second. And let oggs be good old gaggles and Isther Estarr play Yesther Asterr. In the drema of Sorestost Areas, Diseased. A stonehinged gate then was for another thing while the suroptimist had bought and enlarged that shack under fair rental of one yearlyng sheep, (prime) value of sixpence, and one small yearlyng goat (cadet) value of eight-pence, to grow old and happy (hogg it and kidd him) for the re — minants of his years; and when everything was got up for the purpose he put an applegate on the place by no means as some pretext a bedstead in loo thereof to keep out donkeys (the pig-dirt hanging from the jags to this hour makes that clear) and just thenabouts the iron gape, by old custom left open to prevent the cats from getting at the gout, was triplepatlockt on him on purpose by his faithful poorters to keep him inside probably and possibly enaunter he felt like sticking out his chest too far and tempting gracious providence by a stroll on the peoplade’s egg-day, unused as he was yet to being freely clodded."

And that freedom, of the formless coming into form, is a place from which you stand, or you don’t stand, in which you experience the creation of your own universe around you."

    How to Blow Your Mind & Have a Freak-Out Party

    It's easy to organize a FREAK-OUT PARTY, all you have to do is relax your mind and let things happen. Digging wild psychedelic colors, swinging with way-out sounds, grooving on yourself, grooving on everything at once. LOVE.

    To set the scene for the party, spray pop bottles or an old chair with DAY-GLOW PAINT in bright colors, then light the whole room with DAY-GLOW light (you can buy these in any hardware or art-supply stores). This will make everything glow with weird luminous psychedelic colors. Guaranteed to blow their minds right away.

    You can really turn your guests on with a mind-blowing light show with two things you probably have in your house right now: a TV set and a see-through kaleidoscope (not the kind with colored glass in the bottom). First put a rock and roll record on the phonograph. Turn on your TV and make the image jump in time to the music by turning the vertical knob all the way to the left or right. Now point the kaleidoscope at the TV screen. This is a guaranteed TRIP. Now play the same record at another speed. YOU ARE NOW FREAKING OUT. Enjoy it.

    TURN ON yourself and your guests to an ancient Indian chant which brings ecstasy and peace of mind. When the chanting begins on the A side of this record join in. It will really BLOW YOUR MIND, a guaranteed trip into another dimension of consciousness. George Harrison has said of this chant (International Times No. 13) "...saying Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna...it's not the words you're saying, it's the sounds...sounds are vibrations and the more you can put into that vibration, the more you can get out...these vibrations that you get through yoga, cosmic chants...it's such a buzz, it buzzes you out of everywhere." These are the words:

    HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE HARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE HARE

    Wear bright really out-of-sight combinations, things that look strange together. GIRLS! This is a chance to wear something exotic and fantastic that you wouldn't get a chance to put on. Perhaps spray an old pair of shoes with DAY-GLOW and wear DAY-GLOW tights to match. Bright oranges and greens, goofy jewelry, peacock feathers as earrings and a super mini-skirt. GUYS! The idea is to look cool and mysterious, so wear mocassins, prayer beads, or Indian bells, psychedelic buttons, and groovy mod clothes. If you really want to blow your guests' minds, paint your face in wild colors. It's a chance to use some way-out make-up effects. Paint flowers on your arms and wear a mystical PSYCHEDISK on your forehead. Hypnotize your friends with its hallucinating (sic) effect.

    Invite your grooviest friends, people who really swing, and enjoy exploring new and exciting experiences. BLOW YOUR MIND, FREAK OUT, etc. on pieces of colored paper, then glue them on to a piece of tinfoil and fold. This will let them know what kind of scene it's going to be. Ask everyone to bring things they really dig: records, candy, people, flowers, books on flying saucers, kooky things. Tell them it's a costume party and to come in their most out-of-sight clothes. Tell them it's going to be a happening; they'll get the message.

    By now your guests should be really grooving with your head. Get everyone involved in way-out conversations. Read your horoscopes. Compare the personalities of people born under different signs.

    Some other FREAK OUT conversations:

    Did you know that Marilyn Monroe owned a jewel from Tutenkamen's tomb?

    Should we give America back to the Indians? (Ask this seriously.)

    What is the sound of one hand clapping?

    How many Emmett Grogans are there? (one of the Diggers)

    148 - Suburban Transpondency (Sat, 24 Apr 2010)

    IDEAS: Spitballing & Brainstorming

    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us. It's in everyone, and, as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. -Marianne Williamson from "A Return To Love"

    Now I understand for the first time that all these problems are caused by a race asleep and thrashing about in its panicked nightmares. There will be wars and holocausts and genocides as long as God is portrayed and thought of as a tight- minded legislator, a feudal lord, an offended king, a hypersensitive artisan - even if church managers condescendingly tack onto that ridiculous list the not- very-convincing footnote that He is also loving. As long as people dream that they are insecure and needy in some sort of eternal jeopardy, there will be atrocities. But as the human race grows up spiritually, and as individuals gain a personal experience of the God they have been worshipping in fear, they will recognize that much of their theology and philosophy is built on nightmares. That will be the day of peace. [It is time] ...to play an active role in the process of the world's awakening. -George Fowler from "Dance of a Fallen Monk"

    • Kim Krizan: Creation comes out of imperfection. It seems to come out of a striving and a frustration. This is where, I think, language came from. I mean, it come from our desire to transcend our isolation and have some connection with one another. It had to be easy when it was just simple survival. “Water.” We came up with a sound for that. “Sabretooth tiger behind you!” We made a sound for that. But when it gets really interesting, I think is when we use that same system of symbols to communicate all the abstract and intangible things we’re experiencing. What is “frustration”? Or what is “anger” or “love”? When I say “love” the sound comes out of my mouth and hits the other person’s ear travels through the byzantine conduit in their brain through their memories of love or lack of love. They say they understand, but how do I know? Because words are inert. They’re just symbols. They’re dead. You know? And so much of our experience is intangible. So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed. It’s unspeakable. And yet, you know, when we communicate with one another and we feel we have connected and think we’re understood I think we have a feeling of almost spiritual communion. That may be transient, but it’s what we live for.
    • Professor Paul Fry explores the work of Jacques Lacan. Lacan's interest in Freud and distaste for post-Freudian "ego psychologists" are briefly mentioned, and his clinical work on "the mirror stage" is discussed in depth. The relationship in Lacanian thought, between metaphor and metonymy is explored through the image of the point de capiton. The correlation between language and the unconscious, and the distinction between desire and need, are also explained, with reference to Hugo's "Boaz Asleep."

    143 - Suburban Transpondency (Sun, 31 Jan 2010)

     

    There is some confusion as to what magic actually is. I think this can be cleared up if you just look at the very earliest descriptions of magic. Magic in its earliest form is often referred to as “the art”.  I believe this is completely literal.  I believe that magic is art and that art, whether it be writing, music, sculpture, or any other form is literally magic.  Art is, like magic, the science of manipulating symbols, words, or images, to achieve changes in consciousness.  The very language about magic seems to be talking as much about writing or art as it is about supernatural events.  A grimmoir for example, the book of spells is simply a fancy way of saying grammar.  Indeed, to cast a spell, is simply to spell, to manipulate words, to change people's consciousness.   And I believe that this is why an artist or writer is the closest thing in the contemporary world that you are likely to see to a Shaman.

     I believe that all culture must have arisen from cult.  Originally, all of the faucets of our culture, whether they be in the arts or sciences were the province of the Shaman.  The fact that in present times, this magical power has degenerated to the level of cheap entertainment and manipulation, is, I think a tragedy.  At the moment the people who are using Shamanism and magic to shape our culture are advertisers.   Rather than try to wake people up, their Shamanism is used as an opiate to tranquilize people, to make people more manipulable.  Their magic box of television, and by their magic words, their jingles can cause everyone in the country to be thinking the same words and have the same banal thoughts all at exactly the same moment. 

    In all of magic there is an incredibly large linguistic component.  The Bardic tradition of magic would place a bard as being much higher and more fearsome than a magician.  A magician might curse you.  That might make your hands lay funny or you might have a child born with a club foot.  If a Bard were to place not a curse upon you, but a satire, then that could destroy you.  If it was a clever satire, it might not just destroy you in the eyes of your associates; it would destroy you in the eyes of your family.  It would destroy you in your own eyes.  And if it was a finely worded and clever satire that might survive and be remembered for decades, even centuries.  Then years after you were dead people still might be reading it and laughing at you and your wretchedness and your absurdity.  Writers and people who had command of words were respected and feared as people who manipulated magic.  In latter times I think that artists and writers have allowed themselves to be sold down the river.  They have accepted the prevailing belief that art and writing are merely forms of entertainment.  They’re not seen as transformative forces that can change a human being; that can change a society.  They are seen as simple entertainment; things with which we can fill 20 minutes, half an hour, while we’re waiting to die.  It’s not the job of the artist to give the audience what the audience wants.  If the audience knew what they needed, then they wouldn’t be the audience.  They would be the artists.  It is the job of artists to give the audience what they need.

    Trillium Point 22 - Lenin's Head (Mon, 18 Jan 2010)

    "Miss Mao Trying to Poise Herself at the Top of Lenins Head" art installation in the City of Richmond, British Columbia, Canada by the Gao Brothers of China.

    Vladimir Lenin
    Chairman Mao

    This large scale sculpture features two iconic figures in shiny polished stainless steel, a diminutive Miss Mao delicately balancing on the head Vladimir Lenin, the Russian revolutionary whose monumental ideas profoundly influenced Chinese political history. This potentially controversial sculpture is part of the Gao Brothers Miss Mao series, often described as cynical realism.

    This sculpture can be read as a political narrative, as well as a reflection on the current nostalgic attitude toward Mao. The position and scale of the two figures simultaneously questions and ridicules their relative positions in an undeniable commentary. The Gao Brothers have consciously chosen to play the role of social critic and therefore walk a careful line in terms of politics.

    • Star Wars and Joseph Campbell: Hero's Journey

      "Whether it is Odysseus, King Arthur, or Luke Skywalker, the hero is the one who responds to the call to adventure. The stories often open with the hero appearing restless; something is missing in life; there is a feeling of destiny.

      It is a time for separation. Sometimes it takes a shock to make the final break with the past and gain courage to accept the call. But no one can go it alone. Everyone needs a mentor.

      The descent into the underworld of adventure is often blocked by strange and dangerous threshold guardians. They mark the point of no return. Beyond them is the region of the unknown, a dream-like labyrinth of tests and trials. To pass his initiation, the hero must become a dragon slayer, to seize the treasure or rescue the princess.

      But the decisive ordeal of the quest in when the hero confronts death. He is challenged to follow the wisdom of his heart."

    "RULES FOR A REVOLUTION"

       
    1.    Corrupt the young; get them away from religion. Get them
 interested in sex. Make them superficial; destroy their ruggedness.             

    2.    Get control of all means of publicity, thereby:
       
    3.    Get people's minds off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books, plays and other trivialities.
         
       
    4.    Divide the people into hostile groups by constantly harping
 on controversial matters of no importance.
       
    5.    Destroy the people's faith in their natural leaders by
 holding the latter up to contempt, ridicule and disgrace.
       
    6.    Always preach true democracy, but seize power as fast and
 as ruthlessly as possible.
       
    7.    By encouraging government extravagance, destroy it's
 credit, produce years of inflation with rising prices and
 general discontent.
       
    8.    Incite unnecessary strikes in vital industries, encourage
 civil disorders and foster a lenient and soft attitude on the
 part of the government toward such disorders.
       
    9.    Cause breakdown of the old moral values - honestly,
 sobriety, self-restraint, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness.
       
    10.    Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext,
 with a view to confiscate them and leaving the populace helpless.

    How I became a Born Again Romantic

    Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

    127 - Suburban Transpondency (Sun, 31 May 2009)

    Timothy Francis Leary (October 22, 1920 – May 31, 1996) was an American writer, psychologist, futurist, and advocate of psychedelic drug research and one of the first people whose remains have been sent into space. An icon of 1960s counterculture, Leary is most famous as a proponent of the therapeutic and spiritual and emotional benefits of LSD. He coined and popularized the catch phrase "Turn on, tune in, drop out."

    Timothy Leary Video Archive & Audio

    Excerpts from Newspaper Taxis: Drugs, Cult Authors & The Boho Zone

    Melted Rubber Humans "Life Is But A Dream"

    Beyond Life With Timothy Leary

    A few Timothy Leary Quotes:

    Think for yourself and question authority.

    My advice to myself and to everyone else, particularly young people, is to TURN ON, TUNE IN, DROP OUT. By drop out, I mean to detach yourself from involvement in secular, external social games. But the dropping out has to occur internally before it can occur externally. I'm not telling kids just to quit school; I'm not telling people to quit their jobs. That is an inevitable development of the process of turning on and tuning in.

    "Turn on" meant go within to activate your neural and genetic equipment. Become sensitive to the many and various levels of consciousness and the specific triggers that engage them. Drugs were one way to accomplish this end. "Tune in" meant interact harmoniously with the world around you — externalize, materialize, express your new internal perspectives. Drop out suggested an elective, selective, graceful process of detachment from involuntary or unconscious commitments. "Drop Out" meant self-reliance, a discovery of one's singularity, a commitment to mobility, choice, and change. Unhappily my explanations of this sequence of personal development were often misinterpreted to mean "Get stoned and abandon all constructive activity."

    If you want to change the way people respond to you, change the way you respond to people.

    If you don't like what you're doing, you can always pick up your needle and move to another groove.

    In the information age, you don't teach philosophy as they did after feudalism. You perform it. If Aristotle were alive today he'd have a talk show.

    The universe is an intelligence test.

    "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
    "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

    Trillium Point 18 - Trillium Point of View (Mon, 18 May 2009)

    Experimenting with a mini camcorder fastened to my sunglasses and my H2 recording surround sound, I walk from the parking lot up to the Trillium Viewpoint in Tynehead Park, Surrey, BC, Canada. May 17, 2009.

    HENRY DAVID THOREAU:
    "If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen."

    ALAN WATTS: "The hostile attitude of conquering nature ignores the basic interdependence of all things and events---that the world beyond the skin is actually an extension of our own bodies---and will end in destroying the very environment from which we emerge and upon which our whole life depends."

    120 - Suburban Transpondency (Mon, 16 Mar 2009)

    "Postmodernism is, almost by definition, a transitional cusp of social, cultural, economic and ideological history when modernism's high-minded principles and preoccupations have ceased to function, but before they have been replaced with a totally new system of values. It represents a moment of suspension before the batteries are recharged for the new millennium, an acknowledgment that preceding the future is a strange and hybrid interregnum that might be called the last gasp of the past."

    Well did you hear, there’s a natural order. Those most deserving will end up with the most. That the cream cannot help but always rise up to the top, Well I say: Shit floats. If you thought things had changed, Friend you’d better think again, Bluntly put in the fewest of words, Cunts are still running the world, Cunts are still running the world. Now the working classes are obsolete, They are surplus to societies needs, So let ‘em all kill each other, And get it made overseas. That’s the word don’t you know, From the guys thats running the show, Lets be perfectly clear boys and girls, Cunts are still running the world, Cunts are still running the world. Oh feed your children on Cray fish and Lobster tails, Find a school near the top of the league, In theory I respect your right to exist, I will kill ya if you move in next to me, Ah it stinks, it sucks, it’s anthropologically unjust, But the takings are up by a third, Oh So Cunts are still running the world, Cunts are still running the world. Your free market is perfectly natural, Or do you think that I’m some kind of dummy, It’s the ideal way to order the world, Fuck the morals, does it make any money? And if you don’t like it? Then leave. Or use your right to protest on the street, Yeah, use your rights but don’t imagine that it’s heard, Oh no no, Cunts are still running the world, Cunts are still running the world.

    114 - Suburban Transpondency (Sat, 17 Jan 2009)

    "Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves."
    Bill Hicks

    Speakers:

    You might catch yourself sliding in and out . . . relax and enjoy it. This is an experiment in mind formation, in-formation, forming, controlling, operating your mind and your brain, using digital techniques to overload, scramble, confuse, unfocus your mind. The natural state of the brain is chaos. We’re dealing with a complexity of in-formation. The first thing to do is to overwhelm your focused mind, your linear mind, by overloading signals, digital patterns, clusters of photons and electrons which produce a pleasant state of confused chaos. This is the state of the brain when it is ready to be informed, that is, to be reprogrammed. The human brain contains one hundred billion neurons, each neuron is as powerful as a large computer, and each neuron has around ten thousand connections with other neurons. Within our foreheads there is a chaos, inside our brains there is a galaxy of information, which is incomprehensible to our linear minds. This contrasts and compares perfectly with the chaos without. We’re living in a universe, which has one hundred billion galaxies, each galaxy with star systems, planets, a complexity, again, which to our minds right now is chaotic, incomprehensible. Chaos is beautiful. Now many times we are afraid because we want order. We can’t deal with the confusion and disorder. We want form. We want rules. Yes, throughout human history there have been people—religious leaders, political leaders—who will give you order. They will give you rules and commandments. But chaos is basically good. Relax. Surf the waves of chaos and learn how to redesign your own realities. Sit back. Flow. Open your eyes. Turn off your minds. Unfocus, and let the waves of chaos roll over your brain. Float. Drift, Zoom. Design. Create new order, your order, your style from chaos. Yes. Yes. Chaos. Yes, yes, chaos . . . The aim of human life is to know thyself. Think for yourself. Question authority. Think with your friends. Create, create new realities. Philosophy is a team sport. Philosophy is the ultimate, the ultimate aphrodisiac pleasure. Learning how to operate your brain, learning how to operate your mind, learning how to redesign chaos. The religious leaders, the political leaders want to give you orders to run your life, to determine how you think. The basic goal is to operate your own mind. Think for yourself. Around three thousand years ago, a group of human beings in Athens, Greece, developed a new philosophy, a basic religion of humanity that is called humanism. Socrates said that the aim of human life is to know thyself. Create and design your own order from chaos. Socrates did not give commandments. Socrates did not impose order. Socrates asked questions. He encouraged his friends to speculate, design, to create, to interact their own versions of reality. Socrates said the way to perform philosophy is in small groups, raising questions, learning from each other, changing, changing your mind, growing together, thinking together. The religious leaders said “You can’t say that, Socrates. The gods are in control. Who are you to say you have a self? How dare you think you can know? The Gods determine. Sacrifice to the gods; obey the gods.” Socrates said, “No. Look within.” For that, they gave Socrates the hemlock, because he dared to tell people, “Think for yourself. Question authority.” To think for yourself, you must learn how to reprogram, reform, inform your own brain. To do this, to take responsibility for your brain, it is necessary to question everything that you have been taught, to question authority, to learn to take the brave step of taking responsibility for operating your brain. For designing, redesigning, reforming the chaos within. Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities—the political, the religious, the educational authorities—who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing—forming in our minds—THEIR view of reality. To think for yourself, you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself. Think for yourself. Question authority. Then came Marshall McCluhan, in the 1950’s. McCluhan said, in the Socratic sense, “The medium is the message.” The words you use, the modes of communication you use determine the realities you inhabit. Most of our lives, most of us live in realities determined by others, imprinted in our brains by education, by religion, by politics, by the authorities. McCluhan said, “If you want to change your mind, change the medium.” Change the words you use. Change the mode of communication. If you change the medium, you change yourself. You change your society. In the 1960’s, a new mode of communication developed: television. The kids growing up in the 1950’s learned how to tune in, turn on, fine tune, turn off, select, determine what hits your eyeballs. You control your eyeballs and your eardrums. You direct, manage the media that program your brain. McCluhan said, “Who controls the media is programming your mind and programming your brain.” We are using in this tape the new media of digital, multimedia, audiographic overload, attempting to create the state of open-mindedness, pleasant vulnerability in which we will in-form and imprint the messages of The Sponsor: “Use your head. Learn how to operate your brain.” To operate your brain you must understand how to use your eyes. “Oh say, can you see?” Oh say, can’t you see what is being done to your eyes? Who controls your eyeballs, controls your mind, imprints your brain. Oh say, can’t you see that the messages that hit your eyeballs in modern television are creating realities, imprinting messages from the sponsors who are not usually interested in your learning how to design your own realities. Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning! Who controls your screen controls the programs in your mind. Your eyes are the windows of your brain. The eyes are extensions of the brain. The eyes are made up of hundreds of layers of neurons, rods, cones. Your eyeballs deal with one energy: It’s light. Through your eyes come illumination, vision, perception, enlightenment, illumination. Your eyes are the windows of your soul. Who controls your eyeballs programs your brain. Learn how to dial, fine tune your eyeballs. Learn how to unfocus your eyes, dilate your pupils, learn how to open up to illumination and light, and then refocus and redesign your own inner order, your own designs, your own language. In the 60’s, we said. “Power to the people.” In the 90’s, the digital multimedia 90’s, we say, “Power to the pupil.” Illuminate. Enlighten. Envision. Light waves. Sound waves. Light waves. Open eyes. Open mind. Open your brain. Learn how to send messages using electrons. Your brain loves light. Who controls your eyeballs programs your mind. We are also passing on, in this demonstration, the message of Ralph Waldo Emerson, the first and probably the greatest American philosopher who said, “Divinity lies within.” Don’t look to the churches or to the big marble institutions. Your divinity lies within. You must learn to operate your brain, operate your soul. Learn how to communicate brain to brain, soul to soul with other people. Your divinity lies within. The brain is designed to design realities. If you operate your own brain skillfully, you can learn to design your own realities, learn how to communicate in the language of the brain: electrons and photons. We are doing this now. We are sending messages from our brains, using the vehicle of electrons and photons, to your eyeballs. As we watch this screen, our minds are bedazzled, our minds are softened, our linear, sharp logical thinking is gentled, and we are communicating brain to brain. We are using the electron, computer circuits, to feed each other’s brains with light. This is the first paragraph, the first attempt, the first child’s primer in how to communicate using both the orderly left brain and the chaotic, confusing language of photons and electrons. The brain is a photovore. Your brain, my brain, our brains live on light. Just as the body needs air and carbohydrates, our brains are starved for light, for illumination, for revelation. Use your head. Learn how to operate your brain. The brain is designed to design realities. Marshall McCluhan made the prophecy. He told us that the aim of evolution was to use media to create what we all want: the global village, the language, which can be understood by every human being, by every brain. The basic language of humanity, the language of the brain, lights, sounds, rhythms, pulsating your bones, moving your body. We all know this language. We can all sing and dance this language of electrons, of radio waves, of rhythms. Now we have digital communication. We can create our fantasies. We can create our rhythms, design on screen. A new language will develop, a global language, not based on letters, not based on grammars, the language which we all understand, based on clusters of waves of light and sound. We all understand. We all celebrate. We all glory in the light, the illumination, the contact, the intersection, the interaction from around the world, the language of form. We will create a language of international, global brain linkup. Anyone in any culture watching this screen will get the general picture. It’s one global village. It’s one global human spirit, one global human race. As we link up through screens, linked by electrons and photons, we will create for the first time a global humanity, not separated by words or minds or nationalities or religious biases. Now listen to The Message from The Sponsor: “There is one, global human race.” We’re just now learning to communicate brain to brain, soul to soul.

    General 2009 Virgo Prediction

    The New Year 2009 is going to be great for the Virgo zodiac sign. The Virgos will always find themselves on toes without a minute of boredom. Creativity and love are going to be the important focus for the year 2009 and the Virgo people will find themselves resourceful to the ultimate. And with Virgo’s scrupulousness teamed with creative spirit, the result can be quite imaginable. On the emotional front also the Virgo can look forward to an excellent year. If you are already in a relationship then it is going to reach to new heights with marriage and planning a family on the cards. And if you are still looking for your soul mate, then you are sure to meet him or her in New Year 2009. There are also going to be major changes in the Virgo world this year. Saturn is stationed in the Virgo and it would stay there for 2 years more. This is going to bring some strict discipline in the Virgo life, helping you organize your life in a much better way. You would soon find yourself achieving all that you had hoped for. The Virgo can also expect sudden changes in their relationships as you suddenly end some ties and begin some new relations as well. The Virgo will also find itself inspired coming up with new ideas. The only place where there can be some hiccups is work where things get totally confusing.

    Canadian PM Forces Parliament Closure to Avoid No-Confidence Vote

    In Canada, Prime Minister Stephen Harper has succeeded in shutting down Parliament to avoid a vote that would have thrown him out of office. Three opposition parties formed a coalition to oust Harper after he tried to introduce a series of controversial measures, including an attempt to end public financing of election campaigns. Harper said he would try to push through a new budget when parliament reconvenes.

    Suggestion: get high and listen with headphones!

    Check out this comic of The History of LSD


    "'Turn on' meant go within to activate your neural and genetic equipment. Become sensitive to the many and various levels of consciousness and the specific triggers that engage them. Drugs were one way to accomplish this end. 'Tune in' meant interact harmoniously with the world around you - externalize, materialize, express your new internal perspectives. Drop out suggested an elective, selective, graceful process of detachment from involuntary or unconscious commitments. 'Drop Out' meant self-reliance, a discovery of one's singularity, a commitment to mobility, choice, and change. Unhappily my explanations of this sequence of personal development were often misinterpreted to mean 'Get stoned and abandon all constructive activity'.” Timothy Leary

    I Met The Walrus...

    In 1969, a 14-year-old Beatle fanatic named Jerry Levitan, armed with a reel-to-reel tape deck, snuck into John Lennon's hotel room in Toronto and convinced John to do an interview about peace. 38 years later, Jerry has produced a film about it. Using the original interview recording as the soundtrack, director Josh Raskin has woven a visual narrative which tenderly romances Lennon's every word in a cascading flood of multipronged animation. Raskin marries the terrifyingly genius pen work of James Braithwaite with masterful digital illustration by Alex Kurina, resulting in a spell-binding vessel for Lennon's boundless wit, and timeless message.

    80 - Suburban Transpondency (Thu, 03 Jan 2008)

    • Lydia Davis: "New Year's Resolution"

      Retro Movie Review: Beat Girl
      Paul, a divorced architect, marries Nichole, a woman from Paris. His teen daughter Jenny has fallen in with the English beatnik scene and likes to hang out in cave-like clubs to listen to jazz and rudimentary rock'n'roll. Jenny takes an immediate dislike to her mother-in-law, who is not that much older than she, and goes out of her way to make life miserable for Nichole. When Jenny discovers that Nichole is a friend of one of the strippers from the dance hall across the street, she investigates and uses Nichole's sordid past to embarrass her father. Meanwhile Jenny attracts the lecherous eye of Kenny, the owner of the dance hall.

      Expresso Bongo (1959)
      Wikipedia says... Laurence Harvey plays sleazy hustler Johnny Jackson, who is always on the lookout for fresh talent to exploit, while managing his hectic life with his stripper girlfriend. Maise is looking to find a better life in singing. He discovers a teenage singer named Bert Rudge in a coffee shop and sets about sending him along the rocky road to fame. He changes his name to Bongo Herbert and soon gets him a record deal and a relationship with singing sensation Dixie, played by Yolande Donlan. However, Bongo soon realizes that his 50/50 contract with Johnny isn't as great as he thought it was, and breaks from Johnny's contract with help from Dixie.

    Philosophical ramblings after a long night of deep internal monologues

    from "Protest is Dead"

    Just More DrugsBarzin

    In honour of Remembrance Day, November 11th

    watch Howards Hughes' WW1 flying ace epic: Hell's Angels

    watch James Cagney in Captains Of The Clouds about Canadian bush pilots join the RCAF war effort
    note: I meant to say "NOT" an actor playing Billy Bishop, he played himself

    from the CBC archieves...
    “Some must die so that others may live.? Winston Churchill.
    By 2002, about 116,780 Canadians have died in war and peacekeeping missions around the world. Remembrance Day honours the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
    In this 1944 CBC Radio clip, war correspondent Matthew Halton evokes the “dead and the damned battalions,? reflects that “there’ll be mad dogs again in the future,? and urges listeners “this time, let’s not break faith.?

    Lest we forgot.

    In Flanders fields the poppies blow
    Between the crosses, row on row,
    That mark our place; and in the sky
    The larks, still bravely singing, fly
    Scarce heard amid the guns below.
    We are the Dead. Short days ago
    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
    In Flanders fields.
    Take up our quarrel with the foe:
    To you from failing hands we throw
    The torch; be yours to hold it high.
    If ye break faith with us who die
    We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
    In Flanders fields.
    — John McCrae

                I've been watching early 20th century documentaries lately
                I suppose I could've critically considered
                How to best present my thoughts and soapbox concepts
                But hey, Essays are for School Boys!
                So back off Jack, and just let be rabble on
                In my pseudo-poetic, marginally intelligent fashion

                On the ferry from Tsawwassen (Vancouver) to Swartz Bay (Victoria) the ship stopped and performed a training exercise to recover a person who fell overboard. The person was really a balloon-like floatation device and the rescue was actually not that exciting. Yet something special happened for me to catch a video. November 5, 2006.
