AP is for Apoptosis:
Dr. Robert Anton Wilson produced consistantly optimistic scientific philosophy & Magick! for his whole lifecycle. His optimism and foresight were uncanny in their predictive powers, looking back over the last nine years of the so called – New Millenium i think once more that RAW has the comprehensive approach that makes most sense of our human, technological, spiritual and illuminated and part brain dead condition.
Cosmic Trigger first grabbed me like a pincer clawed beast, and jet packed me off onto some path or other to discovering something else that was new, ideas, puzzles, and the framing of new questions, metaphysical breakdowns and synergetic put-back-togethers. Today, after nearly 15 years reading and re-reading RAW i often feel like i am just scratching the surface. This blog entry is just scratching the surface of one of RAW’s interests and something described within most of his books explicitly, and somewhat – implicitly – within his ideas: human life extension. And Tim Leary’s SMI2LE formula
There are many ways of looking at life extension, many, and it involves a deep seating of oneself in timespace, philosophy and subpeona of disbelief – to even begin to think clearly on the subject. Especially difficult for religiously and scientifically — dogmatic — but i wish to look at just one small part here.
The idea in society of the cure, intelligent cure’s, that work specially for each individual are like the ideas of life extension, put a different way – if preventatives are sufficiently capable of keeping illness at bay then they are in some sense delaying death as cures. Cures for disease and illness seem – for me – a new way of looking at the question, (death & life?).
Usually i think of a pill to just extend your life, but of course, there is nothing to do if you are alive other than prevent death for as long as you wish. New smart pills to prevent illness and disease or kill it before it kills us are now the equivalent of Immortality pills in some sense, depending how you see it.
With so many new breakthroughs in genetics, nano scale technology and intelligent medicine each week now, it seems to me, we have arrived at the time when anything is possible, super bomb to turn us all into salt rocks, or a giant space fun park globe with an ARK of earths life systems set off into space from giant catapults! It is my opinion that within 8 years what we now know to be Cancer and AIDS will be essentially – cured, no longer a cause of death unless you want it to be, along with almost any other disease or illness you can pronounce. Such is the promise of molecular and genetic research underway today around the world. Not to overlook, though, the possibility of new smart – diseases and illnesses developing – maybe even daemons – which would add new challenges and obstacles to all human beings living their happy and more healthy, longer life TOGETHER?
I have my own hunch, (from sitting in front of the computer) a very wild guess about some new research that could lead to some breakthroughs in life extension, something i often feel grossly underqualified to wax lyrical about, but in this case, in fly’s case, the threads weave nicely throughout much of my earlier work so i can show with some PROOF that this is not just some wacky scientific experiment i dreamed up, but something approaching a master thesisnt. The beginnings of a new field of Fly Agaric studies proper, with a focus on HEALING, CURES and helping in the community. Practical shit. Things that up until now my works have overlooked, and reconsidering the life and death of Dr. Wilson i now feel it is high time i started my own scientific enquiry.

JOHN SINCLAIR: The Hardest Working Poet in Show Business.
John Sinclair, the – John Sinclair, invited me to join in his gathering of mental patients at the 420′ cafe during the first new light of the winter solstice. As ever we had a funky-good time – i had a problem speaking at first due to a joint lodged in my mouth that wouldn’t budge. Try saying “New York Skunk” with a Joint in your gob. Also i sparked up the reefer before the official opening toke moment! agh, that broke my rhythm a little. John’s tireless output of work grows on a monthly basis like a counter to the U.S debt of imagination, a stream of new blogs, fresh radio shows, book launches, poetry readings, book and poetry writings, edits, and meetings with his publishers and friends, not to mention his family, daughters and grand daughters, all equally illuminated in his daily thoughts. The following is lifted directly from his website-webblog. PLEASE visit it and pay attension to his writings, He writes from his rich, encyclopedic experiences in easy to comprehend sentences. Read him.
I have started a few different articles inspired, influenced and directly reflecting my interpretations of John’s poetry, prose’, music and cultural impact. Some of these are posted here at this ACRILLIC blog. I’ll be adding more as i edit the material and get around to posting it. Also, expect some new DJ FLY, DJ mixe’s and radio shows in the near future, John has been encouraging us to make show’s….

Special thanks to Steve Fly at the 420 CaféLooking at my logs for 2008 at the end of the year I was gassed to think back on all the places I’d made episodes of the show during the year, starting and ending at the 420 Café and hitting other Amsterdam spots like the Rock-It Coffeeshop on the Nieuwmarkt, The Dolphins by the Leidseplein, Coffeeshop Basjoe, Eat at Jo’s in the Melkweg, Hempshopper on the Singel canal, Overtoom 301, OCCII, and the Cannabis College.
On my travels I made programs at WWOZ Radio, Piety Street Recording, Handa Wanda’s, and in the streets of New Orleans on Mardi Gras; at the Butchers inn, No Cover Studio, the Holice P. Woods Studio, the Jazz Loft and the Bohemian National Home in Detroit; SkyDog Tower in Paris; Tokyo Hipsters Club and the Ooze Charm Coffeeshop in Tokyo; the ZXZW Festival in Tillburg and Megaplaten in Utrecht, NL; Pheasant Hollow Winery in Wittenburg IL; Common Ground on the Hill and the Roots Music & Arts Festival in Westminster MD; Piazza del Erbe and Cafe Mentelocale at the International Poetry Festival in Genoa; Lee Harris’ Croft in East Anglia UK and a ton of shows in London including the HeadPress Bunker, Royal Festival Hall, City Inn Art Cafe, CafÈ Oto, World’s End Tavern, Raindance Film Festival HQs, Biddle Bros. Bar, Second Layer Records, Rough Trade Records, Bamalama Poster Shop, Big Green Books, Waterstones Books and Resonance Radio at The Foundry.
Man! No wonder they call me the Hardest Working Poet in Show Business. That’s covering a lot of ground for a man who made 67 years old last October 2nd, if I do say so myself.
I was enjoying a very relaxing holiday season at my new residence in Amsterdam near the Oosterpark where Steve Fly & Sweet Jane have made a room for me when all of a sudden both of my hosts were gone to visit their families in England and Norway, respectively, and I was all alone on Christmas Eve. To keep from getting lonely I thought I should begin a major year-end-type project and, after bringing all my files as up-to-date as I could manage, I took on the exhilarating task of assembling a new book from my 44-year treasure trove of writings.
For some years now I’ve wanted to make a book of my writings from and about New Orleans called Mardi Gras to the World, and once I put my nose to the grindstone I had a ball digging out everything I could find in my files, knocking the dust off, up-dating and beating up the writing a little bit and stitching the pieces together to make up a fairly coherent compendium of stories from 1976-2008, as follows:

C is for COINCIDANCE 1:11 PART 2.
How do i say it? how to describe the synchro-mesh of tech-support Dr. Robert Anton Wilson has provided humanity?
http://tsogblogsphere.blogspot.com/
Well, i am editing my NOVEL at the moment, and i hope this will help contextualize some of my “saying it” but of course its limited. Sometimes its best to let the texts speak for themselves, and so the author, Coincidance:A Head Test. By RAW is possibly my favourite of RAW’s operating manuals for spaceship word. The HUMANITAS shines through on aspects of Economics, Religion, Politics, Science and conspiracy theory with a “precision and research” based language unparralled in 21st century culture, plus a dram’ of HILARITAS and a wind of goodcheer puts RAW at the TOP OF THE TREE for me, regarding the capturing of what it’s like to live in the 2st century – in English.
The big questions for us in 2009 of Consciousness, Mind and matter, Brain and Mind, Artificial Intelligence, Nanotechnology and social cybernetics are tested and noted in all of RAW’s writings since around 1958. The consistency and the accuracy of Robert Anton Wilson’s choice of quality critters – whom have circled him like a flock of Hawks for over 50 years help to make his reseacrh and feedback all the more credible in 2009 IMHO. Starting with only Giordano Bruno and Giambattista Vico you can see how they’re arguments from way back then are today at the forefront of the majority of crisis, conflict and mis-understanding around the world. Centralization of power and the rejection of poetic myth and poetic history as a form of good statemenshop in favor of faith-based and divinely guided – church/states, for one example. And when these heretical peaceniks are woven into sentences, chapters, books and beyond by BOB they sit, like jewells in a timeless – space – floating inbetween states. A MAYBE. To be apprehended by the reader at any time if thy will, but by no means presented to them defacto! as a noun. A Thing, to either blame or worship as a saviour. Just a better, more intelligent data-field from which to begin asking better and more intelligent questions, hopefully from a comprehensive HUMANISTIC perspective. Thought-Actions on behalf of all-humanity. We need more of these thought-actions in aid of all humanity, like the works of Bucky Fuller, to pull together and put the fundamentalist materialist faith-based fossils into museums and Zoo’s, on display for the public to read and compare.
“It is amusing (or bemusing) to note that binary and I Ching are not only isomorphic to Finnegans Wake but also, as Martin Schoenberger has noted, to the genetic code. — RAW. Coincidance. p. 165.
“i am alpha and omega, the first and the last, saith the lord. — Revelations 1:11.”
“The double helix of the DNA does indeed look like a “strandentwining cable” and it is distincly odd that Joyce seems to have had the ALP and O and 1 binary symbols in mind so long before FW. — RAW. Coincidance p. 170.

M.C. Escher and Finnegans Wake & MONK
In searching for visual metaphors for Joyce’s master-built – Finnegans Wake – the great master of impossible objects to the eye – M.C Escher stands as a near perfect puzzle fit. If the word were able to be broken down into the 17 wallpaper – tessilations – then Finnegans Wake would be the SPANISH CASTLE MAGIC – the deployment of all wallpapers within a laboratory space – investigating and remixing itself, turning the world inside out, upside down with mathematical precision. Making the impossible equations of Quantum Mechanics and the newer fields of Consciousness studies into new MAPS, CHARTS, DIAGRAMS and TOOLS. With which to make further readings with.
Searching for M.C. Escher by name in Finnegans Wake turns up such possible – mini impossible ESCHER DRAMAS – made more probable by Joyce – such as:
“Fortissa, that Honuphrius has blasphemously confessed under
voluntary chastisement that he has instructed his slave, Mauritius, to
ur;,e Magravius, a commercial, emulous of Honuphrius, to solicit
the chastity of Anita. Anita is informed by some illegitimate
children of Fortissa with Mauritius (the supposition is Ware’s)
that Gillia, the schismatical wife of Magravius, is visited
clandestinely by Barnabas, the advocate of Honuphrius, an immoral
person who has been corrupted by Jeremias. — J.J. F.W. P 572.“Of course, my
pledge between us, there’s no-one Noel like him here to
hear. Esch so eschess, douls a doulse! — James Joyce, Finnegans Wake, 588.That’s the point of eschatology our book of kills reaches
for now in soandso many counterpoint words. What can’t be
coded can be decorded if an ear aye sieze what no eye ere grieved
for. — J.J, F.W. P. 482.“He beached the bark of his tale; and set to husband and vine:
and the harpermaster told all the living conservancy, know
Meschiameschianah, how that win a gain was in again. — J.J, F.W. p. 358I’ll leave the rest to the imagination. Google Escher, look at his work, now read some of Finnegans Wake – and maybe even listen to some Theolonious MONK.

GA is for GRAFFITI ABORTISEMENT
GRAFFABORTISEMENT!
“There are doubtless millions of people that are fascinated by the technical prowess and exacting graphic skill of one, Maurits Cornelis Escher. His imagination captured mine at a very early age, probably the first visual art that actually grabbed my deficient attention. I developed an early interest in mathematics, no doubt assisted by the many wonderful prints that Maurits would labour over tirelessly. I have been considering ‘remixing’ his work for years, and its eventually come to pass. I’m working on a set of three tributes. ‘Writing Hands’ is also a tribute to the world of graffiti WRITERS, part of a new campaign ‘Human Writes’ aswell – although it seemed pretty obvious to substitute the drawing pens with a marker and an aerosol can, the execution was purposefully loose. — CHU http://www.schudio.co.uk/blog/2009/m-c-escher-tribute-2-of-3/
Some Aerosol Graffiti Artists’ manifest “imposseeblu” objects, sombunall based on alphabetical forms. Some BURST others bust! Graffiti Artist.n.t – blowing up – Alphabits with wind and semantext & putting word and world back together, back on the wall humpty fell from. Repairing the great language crash of 2009. Some Impossible lettengineers pay structural tribute to M.C Esher. Some experimental ASTRACTIVISTS use& Gurilla attack systems of Graffiti application, and deployment, adding to the information quotent within the surprise = information equation. span style=”font-size:130%;”> CHU‘s latest TRILOGY are a self-described “tribute to M.C ESCHER and GRAFFITI ARTISTS worldwide.” Parts 1 & 2 have been deployed already – we await the 3’rd. Waterfalls? 3 cubes? Mobius Strip II?
Bebop turned Broadway upside down. Graffiti Art and has turned the modern ART Gallery INSIDE OUT. The streets have become galleries, again. With hidden treasure and tales for attentive observers. Publik Big Brother public amuses himself, themself and itself. Most Graffiti Artists have an inbred rejection of faux icons and defend the word-world by perpetually turning things inside out. Outside in. Like the experience a witnessing an Escher world view.
Pirating instruments and techniques to decorate and reconstruct environments, out smarting culture vulture by decades. Aeons. Some Graffiti ARTISTS in 2009 are on the cusp of putting some meaning back into HUMAN RIGHTS with HUMAN WRITES. Making sense of a topsy turvey world, faux Image, woided-word and manipulated meaning – hijacked by the greed monsters, Advertising execorpses, Vulture Ministers and Whig Botherhood. Spin doctored. Antidoted by GRAFFABORTISEMENT! CHUSIDEOUT.—Fly Agaric 23. 7th Feb. 2009. 1.50. Amsterdam. Netherlands. Listening to John Coltrane Ballads.

“flip yourself head over heels, as if swinging over a waist-high horizontal bar in front of you. Now your heart is on the same side as the mirror-person’s heart-but your feet and head are in the wrong places, and your stomach, although at approximately the right height, is upsidedown. So it seems a mirror can be perceived as reversing up and down, provided you’re willing to map yourself onto a creature whose feet are above its head. It all depends on the ways that you are willing to slip yourself onto another entity. — Douglas Hofstader.
