DEEP SCRATCH

Author: flyagaric23

  • natural abundance of flowers

    …we are all shotdown by the
    painstream media
    dammed by knee jerk reactions
    to the stench of truth

    what effect do you wish
    to have surpriseshock
    and horror awe wonder
    mystery suspense
    does it entertain lull
    at what and at who’s expense

    to use the word as a massage
    and all its meanings and shades
    as exotic oils feathers and music
    new uses to uncork the soul
    and spring the genius out from
    within each and every heart
    so mote it be

    so build playful bridges of
    paperclips daisies and spaghetti
    yet not past a point
    beyond where the ravioli orbits
    multiplicity
    shoot down hate with
    love bazookers

    tune into others and
    walk a mile
    gain insight of foreign
    alien knowledge in new directions
    from maps and mold
    memorable metaphors from
    the natural abundance of
    nature

    purple flowers on bodies
    disaster strikes and all thinking people
    sigh another dumb ass destroys
    life direct hit to every humanitarian
    circumstance differs
    death horror destruction are hard
    to make rational sense of today

    varying emotions arise
    and fall around the planet
    in step with graphic images and
    graphic details bouncing into the
    eyeballs of billions

    chatter in the streets
    web searches later before
    tweets what is the question again
    who how why for what
    what can the news reports
    tell us

    what of the lead up
    what next mind the present
    the ever present grief and sadness
    of violence greed corruption
    and abuse at all levels
    going on right now

    what about the lead up this
    event specifically who benefits
    who profits who looses and
    who gains what
    whooooooooooo

    and on and on spinning and
    twisting through gazillions of
    neural networks data crunching
    networks analysis and probably
    probabalistic feedback on pretty
    possible outcomes
    leading to a headline
    [insert bogeyman here]
    did it

    the wreakage and horror
    of crash sites illustrate the
    destructive force of weapons
    no matter which primate fired
    we feel the result of military
    weaponry manufactured
    marketed and sold 

    and for the victims families
    and loved ones and friends
    i point to the description
    of delicate purple flowers
    and lush grasses surrounding

    the grave and to the soil and
    the surrounding flora
    motionless silent and simply
    soaked in the traces of  
    sentience dispersing out
    into infinite space
    into the hearts and heads
    of billions of people
    around the globe

    may the sympathy overpower
    the rage for revenge
    may you have strength to
    tune out from the painstream
    media and into

    the tangible
    flowers and grasses
    stars and clouds and the
    natural world where the
    souls of their loved ones
    and all of us may go

    a little word to recycle
    snatched souls into
    worlds of natural abundance
    and the eternal memory
    with budding language

    let the future bloom
    and forgiveness blossom
    worldwide…

  • Bucky Fuller predicts atomic-scale computers forty years before graphene semi-conductors

    The clearly stated work is a transcription of a recording Fuller made in the late 1960s. The transcriptions reside in Box 9, Folder 3 of the Stanford University Special Collection of R. Buckminster Fuller. The transcriptions document a series of discussions between Fuller and his patent attorney, D. Verner Smythe. The patent was not pursued and does not appear in Inventions, Fuller’s book of patents. The subject of the patent does, however, appear in Fuller’s magnum opus, Synergetics (1975 and 1979). To understand a node of Fuller’s thought requires tracing an idea across many other nodes of Fuller’s thought. But by tracing a line from diary entries through transcribed monologues through published books, Fuller is shown to predict atomic-scale computers nearly forty years before today’s discussion of graphene semi-conductor computers.–http://synchronofile.com/buckminster-fullers-ultra-micro-computer/

     By the time the phrase “never show half-finished work” appeared in his book Critical Path (1981), “Universal Requirements Checklist” had been renamed “Comprehensively Anticipatory Design Science’s Universal Requirements for Realizing Omnihumanity Advantaging Local Environmental Controls, Which are Omniconsiderate of Both Cosmic Evolution Potentials and Terrestrial Ecological Integrities.”–http://synchronofile.com/buckminster-fullers-ultra-micro-computer/

  • Make it new: Panorawma and the tale of the tribe

    MAKE IT NEW (Originally Panorawma & The tale of the tribe (July 2011)
    Over the last ten years together with a sleepless band of independent researchers, the author has been tuned into “The Tale Of The Tribe” (TTOTT), developed exclusively by Dr. Robert Anton Wilson (1932-2007)
    At RAW360 we embark on a whole new way of communicating some parts of TTOTT, introducing new ways of seeing and navigating information. New spaces that reflect primary innovations of key historical figures who deeply inspired RAW and his works.
    The multi-sensory experience of interacting with the new ‘info-process tools’ and embedded media, ploughs the language for the appropriate new message. I walk in the footsteps of those writers whom wish to show delight in the limitations and boundaries of the textual art form. Visit any major writers website and be confronted with audio, video, texts and hyperlinks, the sum total of which, I feel, often overshadows the individual textual medium by which we show up here.

  • The RAW-OTO-Illuminati Rabbit Hole

    Over the years (as RAW notes in Cosmic Trigger) some suggested that he was the Real Head of the Illuminati, which of course RAW would never actually confirm or deny—not because it was either true or false—but because it was more amusing to let people believe whatever they wanted to believe… and it probably didn’t hurt book sales of Illuminatus!either. Whatever the case, around 2003 I posed to RAW this very same question, inquiring if he was indeed the one and only Head of the Illuminati, and his answer, in typical satiric fashion, was “No, I’m the toe.” This wasn’t exactly the response I was looking for, but just the same I asked if he’d appoint me an Illuminati High Priest, to which he didn’t hesitate one second: “You are hereby appointed.” And although this lofty position hasn’t improved my sex life or finances to any measurable degree, you must admit it’s one hell of an honor belonging to a secret order associated with Robert Anton Wilson.–Adam Gorightly, http://historiadiscordia.com/the-raw-oto-illuminati-rabbit-hole/

  • Bucky Fuller and Alfred Korzybski: the comprehensivists.

  • tale of the tribe and the sirius mystery

    The tale of the tribe contact high.

    Fuck off, and welcome to another installment of my blog–a tale of the tribe–that aims to offer a resource of specific information related to the great complex and generally hidden project (unfinished) tale of the tribe, by the late Robert Anton Wilson.

    Since a recent positive explosion of interest in Robert Anton Wilson across the United Kingdom due, in part to the brilliant book by John Higgs about the the KLF featuring much RAW wisdom and context for a UK audience. Plus, the Cosmic Trigger stage play looks to make agents sweat when it launches in Liverpool, November 23rd 2014. Revisiting Cosmic Trigger the book, the current author was bowled over again by gazillions of new connections, and a new deeper love for RAW and his life story, and a willingness to look at the tale of the tribe from a new angle, which sets the basis of the following piece of writing i gathered onto the paper page a few hours ago, here in Vondel Park, Amsterdam.

    Fire!

    pg. 1

    TTOTT and the Sirius mystery

    what if
    RAWs great unfinished symphony
    the tale of the tribe
    were more than a guide to 13 of
    the greatest human minds
    who helped humanity find
    peace
    through communication

    what if
    TTOTT
    were also a guide to contacting
    higher intelligences
    from alternate dimensions
    or wherever
    what if the tale of the tribe
    were really a key
    to the sirius mystery
    and itself a cosmic trigger?

    pg. 2

    take Girodano Bruno
    his new languages
    for new communications with
    higher intelligence
    development of angelic languages
    so called

    foundations of
    enochian vision magick
    contemporary with John Dee and
    Edward Kelly

    maybe
    Bruno and his works hold keys
    to early contact with E.Ts
    angels entities as you wish
    and denizens of the sirius
    triple star system

    strange holy guardian angels
    but somehow
    communicating through timespace
    through the nervous system of
    Robert Anton Wilson
    into the tale of the tribe
    a modern critique
    of scripture
    holy binding contractual poetic
    does it work?

    pg. 3

    Yeats Joyce and Pound
    also made
    contact
    in some sense with higher
    intelligence
    some might say muse
    others artistic inspiration
    but what

    if Yeats…
    (a butterfly landed with all six mittens onto
    the page while writing this
    two antenna
    deep burnt orange and woody
    choco’ brown hairs with dashes of
    white)

    what if
    William Butler Yeats
    picked up on the magickal hermetic
    current and methods for contacting
    higher intelligence
    either from his own study of Bruno
    Dee Kelly Ficino
    or

    from Aleister Crowley
    the great beast
    who diligently practiced
    enochian magick

    pg. 4

    and so
    maybe Yeats passed on the
    invisible bug or knowledge
    a tiny magickal starseed
    to his associates
    James Joyce and
    Ezra Pound?

    the Chinese written character
    and ancient imagist sensibility
    in resonance with contacting
    higher intelligence
    how did that language strike up from the past?

    (contact between the widow of
    American scholar of Japanese arts and
    oriental culture: Ernest
    Fenollosa and Ezra Pound cc. 1912)

    the hermetic current
    tirelessly innovating culture
    art and science with
    humanitas

    pushing out beyond language
    into total communication
    magick keys to open invisible doorways
    geometry poetry mathematics
    and good will

    pg. 5

    and a will to power
    to the people
    special languages of poetry
    to awaken the reader
    to the ignorance in knowledge
    firm trust in the universe to provide
    flying on the wings of
    imagination

    what if
    contact with higher intelligence
    disguises itself as creative impulse
    and the spark of ingenuity?

    Joyce and Pound each
    made a revolution in
    communications scripture
    and systems

    a good guide to contacting your
    own deeper shadow self
    your private muse
    angel
    or sirian servant
    invoked for good intentions
    on behalf of all around the world
    humanity
    a doorway for friendly ET intervention
    ummm…

    pg. 6

    deeper still we have
    the Polish genius who contacted
    higher intelligence through the
    intensive work and innovation of
    language:
    general semantics

    a refinement of language structure
    toward a science of meaning
    contact with multiple entities
    a lesson for self centered
    naive realists
    in non-Aristotelian language systems
    of limited communications
    Alfred Korzybski

    key to magickal workings
    a 20th century extension of core
    hermetic wisdom
    scientifically presented as
    a system

    deployed by William S. Burroughs
    a possible way to interpret the nova mob
    practiced and mastered by
    Robert Anton Wilson himself
    the epic vortex
    of imagination and good
    willed humour

    pg. 7

    what if
    Buckminster Fuller were a
    primary key figure to
    understanding and making use of the
    hermetic wisdom in
    contacting higher intelligence

    innovation of geometry
    so as to benefit all humanity
    design science revolution
    in the hermetic tradition
    not for weapons of war
    but knowledge systems and new
    communications languages
    for peace

    toward universal abundance
    of technology in the
    minds of the people
    the natural abundance of
    carbon 60
    or bucky balls
    throughout the universe

    serious cosmic economics
    extraterrestrial technology
    and contact
    through the medium of geometry
    maybe some Giordano Bruno
    wisdom
    geodesics and dymaxion
    architecture for the people
    buckyballs and the mad
    carbon 60 mystery of the
    universe:
    ubiquity of c60 throughout it!

    pg. 8

    what if
    the father of information sciences
    and the mathematical theory of
    communication
    Claude Shannon
    were perceived as another
    unforeseen link to opening the
    invisible doorways through which
    higher intelligence
    crept

    to lead much of humanity in 2014
    into contact
    with everybody and everything
    imaginable:
    the global internet of things

    a basically hermetic ideaspace:
    shared knowledge and a
    scientific tool for discovery
    and information processing
    and
    feedback

    Shannon dangles keys
    to as yet undiscovered
    rooms without walls
    mind boggling complexity
    negentropy
    building a new cypher language
    to help deduce and evaluate
    information
    through innovating the equations
    binary electrical switching circuit
    contact

    pg. 9

    what if
    the tale of the tribe
    by Robert Anton Wilson
    defines another order of
    methods and systems
    required for any thinking individual
    who really wants to make contact
    with higher intelligence
    here it is
    cosmic trigger
    study it

    and with luck ideas and inspiration
    may emerge to lift up humanity
    and instigate newer and faster
    technological innovations
    of the living
    livingry

    once contact is established
    how the to ask
    a meaningful question
    how to interpret the information

    quantum mechanics
    and taoism
    both
    systems for deeper study
    on contemplating a holy
    guardian angel
    entity
    shadow self
    how to?

    pg. 10

    magickal workings in the
    enochian language seem
    to me to be more effective
    way to contact higher intelligence
    without tears
    with good reason healthy skepticism
    and a playful soul

    based upon evidence from
    RAWs books such as Cosmic Trigger vol. 1
    and from RAW himself in my interviews
    i now feel today that
    there exists a particular contact
    procedure
    based on RAWs experiments detailed in his
    book
    methodology that includes
    magickal occult ceremony
    and tantric rituals
    together with strange drugs

    Aha
    i hear the skeptic shout accusingly
    drugs!
    i knew it
    all this babble about contact and angels
    he’s high on acid

    well yes what you thought
    the psychedelic experience
    mimics the magickal experience
    and the experience of art too
    getting beyond language
    into epiphany and cosmic coincidence
    or better yet synchronicity

    pg. 11

    to innovate the priest craft
    while keeping two feet
    grounded on earth
    in the sewer
    maybe the message from the stars
    seeds is to evolve and mutate?
    get back to the primary source of
    a kind of
    decentralized (Bruno)
    perception

    unlimited and unbounded by belief
    beliefs unlimited
    freedom of thought
    as Crowley and Leary
    and Philip K. Dick demonstrated

    we are not alone but
    surrounded by a network of sentient
    beings
    a love macrocosm
    teaming with life and things to
    communicate and
    probably not in english

    simply tune in
    RAW tuned in while also turned on
    and quickly got dialled into
    sirius.raw broadcasting network 23

    since getting in touch
    RAW crafted ingenious magickal
    communication devices
    or books
    utilized to help
    other make contact
    and possibly take the plunge and
    attempt the tale of the tribe
    for themselves

    pg. 12

    TTOTT
    a modern verse epic
    an epic including history
    a global epic for the entire
    human race
    from the perception of
    an individual stuck in time
    space

    a spirited attempt to
    redeem oneself from the
    mostly violent
    wreckage of history
    the history of men
    empire warfare greed
    and nightmare bushit’ whirl

    a new book of the day
    contact for all who read
    to provoke freedom of thought
    and sympathy and forgiveness
    for all mankind

    the gods never left us’
    we must knuckle down and
    create this kind spirit of open
    communication for all entities
    both gods and insects
    we must become the
    magick
    we wish to see manifest
    in the word/world

    pg. 13

    two examples of
    the tale of the tribe
    the cantos of Ezra Pound
    &
    Finnegans Wake by James
    Joyce

    both epic and encyclopedic
    global
    tragic comic
    multi lingual
    crated a whole new style
    ideogrammic prose
    hologrammic prose

    both in the hermetic tradition
    heavy on math
    geometry and esoteric symbol
    systems innovated and
    unified in the minds of
    the people who read them

    keys to holding a kind sanity
    in the facebook of a
    pop culture apocalypse
    love and light of acknowledgement
    that nothing is what it first appears to be

    pg. 14

    and slowness is beauty
    good access to the data for all
    helps build a clearer picture
    global webnet search engines
    unleash much occulted information and
    wisdom hidden within the cantos
    and the wake
    even today

    and so the global
    hermetic revolution is underway
    and has been for thousands of years
    artists
    scientists
    hackers
    magicians

    untied against fundamentalist
    materialists
    religious and scientific dogma
    state sponsored bully boy tactics

    and against mean spirited
    greedy actions for the exclusive
    benefit of the few

    a planet spaceship earth
    with 7.6 Billion passengers
    using over 750 languages
    requires a certain sympathetic
    and tolerant individual
    who attempts unity in verse
    including history
    without loosing sight of
    the guiding principle of compassion
    and kindness for all sentient beings

    (on my way back from the park this afternoon i made a decision that when i got home i would google “Yeats and “butterflies” to see what might turn up. Of course, in 1934 Yeats wrote a drama titled ‘Wheels and Butterflies’ adding some spice to this mini-drama unfolding within a drama triggered by a butterfly landing on my open page as i wrote the word Yeats.)
