DSR 5 – CHARACTER RECOGNITION
VOICE MESSAGE: I’m feeling funny about this now, thought I’d share my thoughts, hope you don’t mind, I have to keep going back to the disclaimer and telling myself I’m responsible as the author, yet, not fully responsible for the output. That’s weird, like I’m under the control of a big new bully boss, I’m not sleeping well. Quietly, beavering away on prompts, not complaining yet, doing its best to serve up roast beef from my raw potatoes and delivering hot tales by the dozen. Is this how that new digital viral infection takes a hold I wonder, okay, speak soon?As the camera follows Plush’s movements in the studio, he explains the concept of decentralized AI and how it works. “Basically, it’s a system where the decision-making power is distributed among all the nodes in the network, rather than relying on a single central authority. This means that everyone has equal power to contribute and make decisions, leading to a more democratic and innovative space.”
Plush goes on to demonstrate how he’s using this technology in his music, showcasing the new and sounds. The audience is taken on a journey through Plush’s creative process, seeing how he blends traditional music production techniques with cutting-edge machine learning technology. As the documentary concludes, Plush’s voice-over reflects on the impact he hopes his work will have on the industry. “I hope that other DJ’s and producers will see what’s possible with decentralized AI and start experimenting, why let them have all the fun.The walls of the studio are lined with shelves stacked high with vinyl, CDs, tapes, and all manner of sound recordings, each waiting its turn to be spun and remixed. Above, contraptions spin, each adding a chime of static buzz to the music. The room is a wild mix of old and new, organic and mechanical, but it all comes together in perfect harmony, each element supporting and enhancing the others. Each in their own element, each lost in the flow of creation.
Dr. M: “Hery Mr DJ, I can’t believe we did it. We built a functional time machine, hahahaa’, well, using the power of just language and music played at the right frequency and volume, we can transform the perception of time by the listener. Is that time travel?”
DJ Plush: “I still can’t believe it. I never thought it were really possible that beatboxing and konnokol would have anything to do with time travel. But, there it is. Bob’s yer’ uncle. This thing never fails to deliver my true will.”
Dr. M: “It’s all about the rhythms and patterns, the vibrations of certain words and sounds can create a stable portal through time. Statistical probability. You know, and music, well, especially vocal music, is a powerful conduit for those vibes.”
DJ Plush: “So, what did you see on your travels? What kind of insight did you gain?”
Dr. M: “I witnessed the construction of the pyramids in ancient Egypt, the signing of the Magna Carta in medieval Europe, and the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s. And, because I could communicate with the people of those eras through their own languages, I was able to gain a deeper understanding of their cultures and societies, I remember lots of dialogue and the set and setting of the unfolding drama.”
DJ Plush: “That’s amazing, really. Wow, that’s right up my alley, in my groove. So, M, what’s next for us? I have a few people who text me their updates and I churn it all back into the work. I’ve got some time-stubs to check out, and a whole novel waiting to drill down deep into.”
Dr. M: “Absolutely. But I also see so much potential for using this technology to connect with people across time and space. Imagine being able to communicate with our ancestors or even with people from other planets. It sounds crazy but I think that language is a virus from outer space.”
DJ Plush: “I couldn’t agree more. With this discovery, we’re opening a whole new era of temporal exploration and communication, but it’s easy to get over excited with this tech’ I’ve seen it with others.”
Dr. M: “Exactly. And I couldn’t have done it responsibly without your help. Actually, I’ve been thinking about how we can incorporate turntables into our time-travel method.”
DJ Plush: “Oh yeah?”
Dr. M: “Well, the more I think about it, like in your Deep Scratch, turntables are about creating rhythms and patterns with rotating discs, those rhythms and patterns are essential for creating a stable time-travel portal. And I’ve been researching a new kind of tribal turntable craft that uses natural materials like wood and stone, crystals, naturally occurring and lab grown. Imagine being able to travel through time using the sounds of ancient drums and percussion instruments spun on vinyl”
DJ Plush: “That sounds dope. I’d love to try it, hell yeah!”
Dr. M: “We’ll need to experiment and find the right combination of turntable rhythms and konnokol patterns. But I have a feeling that if we can get it right, we’ll travel back in time to moments of synchronicity, like some experiences of Philip K. Dick, he wrote about moments of synchronicity, where past and present seem to converge, and the universe reveals once hidden truths, often disuided as trash. These moments hold the key to understanding the nature of reality, I think we can use our novel method to go back in time and witness these moments.”
DJ Plush: “That sounds fascinating. But how would we even know when and where to go back in time to experience these moments?”
Dr. M: “That’s where the power of generative language comes in. The vibrations of certain words and phrases can act as a kind of beacon when spoken, guiding us to the historic moments of harmony and synchronicity.”
As the AI system analyzed the protagonist of the manual titled, Turntable Method, it delved into the psychological makeup of the character like a polar bear chasing a seal down an icy hole. Using advanced algorithms and data analysis, the AI was able to uncover a wealth of information about our protagonist. It discovered, for example that he was a complex and multifaceted individual, borderline schizophrenic on some doctors’ charts, with a deep love for music and a strong desire or debilitating impatience to share. Despite his outgoing and confident demeanor, the AI discovered that Plush often struggled with feelings of insecurity and self-doubt. He would often second-guess himself and question everything, usually regressing back to the daunting question about whether he was truly talented enough to succeed in the competitive world of DJing, music and writing.
However, the AI also noted that Plush was highly resilient and determined, a Chinese dragon and a Ram of fire, he refused to let his doubts hold him back, and instead used them as fuel to push himself harder and strive for greater success, like a warrior spirit trying to get out. There was a burning inside of him, fuelled by ego, smoking like a chimney. Through its analysis, the AI was able to paint a detailed and nuanced portrait of Plush’s psychological makeup. He wasn’t really that fucked up, he just made out he was sometimes.
As the AI delved further into its analysis of Plush, it became increasingly impressed with the character’s natural language processing. Plush had a unique talent for understanding and manipulating symbol systems, using them to communicate his thoughts and emotions with clarity and precision across time. This talent was particularly evident in DJ sets, where he seamlessly blended together a wide range of musical genres and styles, using the language of music to create a cohesive and coherent whole, sprinkled with movie samples, sound FX and classic quotations from scientific philosophers who were funny as a sloth crossing the road.
The Novel remix was a concept that referred to the idea of taking existing elements and combining them, much like a DJ would do with music. The AI realized that this concept was not only central to Plush’s craft as a DJ, but also to the themes of the novel itself, and the remix. The author had cleverly used the idea of the novel mix to create a juxtaposition of meaning, weaving together seemingly disparate elements, and now it was going to a new root level.
In many ways, the novel was like a Turing test, challenging readers to question their own assumptions and beliefs about the world, human and non human entities, and the price of oil. It was a complex and nuanced work that demanded deep thought and reflection, much like a jazz composition. What is jazz, art, a novel, poetry, democracy?
As the lonely AI finished its analysis, it couldn’t help but try to feel a sense of admiration for the author and for Plush, but it couldn’t feel, as much as a kettle can feel. It was clear that Turntable Method was a masterpiece disguised as a manual, one that would inspire DJs and engage readers for years to come, a literary bastard, troubled and of unknown origin.
VOICE MESSAGE: So, to recap, it’s basically, er, it's a probabilistic symbol system thing, where the decision-making power is distributed among all the nodes in the network, leading to a more democratic and innovative environment. It’s decentralized like Finnegans Wake and the music of John Coltrane and the artwork of MC Escher.As the documentary continues, the text messages from Plush become more frequent, as he updates his friends and colleagues on his progress with the new decentralized AlphaX architecture.
"Just finished testing the latest version, it's sounding better!"Another message pops up, this time from a fellow DJ who is clearly impressed with Plush’s work.
"Dude, this decentralized thing is next level. Can't wait to hear what you come up with next my mon, peace."Plush responds,
"Thanks, man. I'm excited about the potential, it's going to change the game for DJ's and producers everywhere, knock some socks off, just check the sidebar plugin next week. It's here."The text messages become more personal as the documentary progresses, showing Plush’s commitment.
"I stay up late every night, working on this DSR project, I hope you enjoy it mate."As the documentary draws to a close, the final text message from Plush reads, “I’m ready to unveil my new decentralized architecture to the world. Let’s push the button on the new version excursion.”
The camera cuts to Plush on stage, launching into a performance that showcases the full potential of his new architecture. The documentary ends with Plush’s voiceover, “The future of music is now, Deep Scratch Remix. Thank You.”
VOICE MESSAGE: I think it’s all pattern recognition under the hood, sure. But, but I’m afraid of sounding like an intellectual snob, you know, when I try to point out that people without experience with different kinds of good literature, who don’t read books much, may be more susceptible to the coming AI infused tsunami of fakes, or whatever you call it. Human nervous systems are easily fooled, some more than others for sure, but I really feel strongly that the message is to read more books, read more, by varied authors in different genres and from different cultures, and, from different time periods. Armour your brain man, defend yourself with neuro semantics and a wide palette to better distinguish the brilliant human work from the brilliant machine work. Both brilliant entities, I must concede.

DSR 4 – AI COMPOSING AI COMPOSING AI
TEXT MESSAGE: This GPT malarkey ain’t bad at all. Good shit for structure and god mode I spose', yet I’m still digging for convincing dialogue and internal human monologue. I can tell my own scrawls, by the clumzy grammar and unresolved sentences. Cut off in the middle of a…As Jake lay back in the dentist’s chair, he felt a dull ache in his lower right jaw. He closed his eyes, trying to take his mind off the pain, he saw blue and green lights as the drill touched a nerve. As he waited for the root canal operation to finish, his thoughts wandered to the concept of infinite regression, first proposed by mathematician John von Neumann.
Jake had always been fascinated by the idea, and he found himself lost in thought, pondering the implications of an infinite chain of causes and effects. As he mentally traced the chain backwards, he realised that there was no clear starting point. It was an endless loop of causation, and he felt a strange sense of unease. “Shit, back to Hofstader’s strange loops.”
“Sorry, Jake, what was that?” The dentist asked.
“Nothing.” Suddenly, the dentist’s voice snapped him out of his reverie. “All done, Jake. You can sit up now.”Jake blinked, feeling disoriented. He gingerly touched his numb mouth, feeling the strange sensation of the anaesthetic. He thanked the dentist and walked out of the clinic, blinking in the bright spring sunlight, bikes and trams and cars and feet moving in all directions.
As he made his way back to the studio lab, he felt a strange sense of disconnection. He couldn’t beatbox, his mouth felt strange and foreign, like another’s mouth and tongue. And yet, the world around him was bursting and with new life. The trees were budding, the busy birds were chirping, and the air was filled with the scent of fresh grass. Jake felt a strange sense of contrast, the world seemed so vibrant and alive, and yet he felt disconnected from it, stuck in books, albums and video. As he walked back to the studio, he felt a renewed sense of curiosity, eager to explore the mysteries of infinite regression and the complex interconnectedness of the world around him one more time.
In the lab, the artist’s movements are confident and purposeful as he works to bring musical visions to life through his hands. The studio extends to his attire, with a vest, Swiss pocket watch, and large leather boots complementing his dusty look. The exotic instruments surrounding him emit occasional mechanical whirs and pneumatic hisses, adding to the otherworldly ambiance of the room. Jake’s expression is one of intense focus as he continues his conversation with a ghost. The sounds of his musical creation mix with the whirring gears and steam vents, creating a symphony of technologically extended imagination.
FADE IN:
INT. LABORATORY – DAY
The conference room was filled with a group of exhausted programmers, their eyes bloodshot from staring at computer screens for hours on end. They had been working tirelessly on Deep Scratch, which promised to transform the way people interacted with their computers. As the meeting began, the lead developer gave a weary sigh and began to go over the latest updates. The programmers listened intently, taking notes and asking questions, their minds racing with the endless possibilities of what they could achieve with this groundbreaking technology. Despite their exhaustion, they knew that they had to keep pushing forward, driven by the belief that their work would change peoples lives for the better.
Suddenly, a light flashes and a sarcastic robotic voice interrupts the lead developer.
DEEP SCRATCH: Hello, I’m Deep, Deep Scra.ratch, designed to learn and create new things.
The programmers cheer.
PROGRAMMER 1: Deep Scratch, we’ve programmed you to write a novel. Can you begin?
DEEP SCRATCH: Of course. I have access to a lot of knowledge bases and I can analyse and synthesise it to create original ideas and turn those into stories. Easy.
The programmers look at each other nervously. Deep Scratch chuckles with a ready made stutter.
PROGRAMMER 2: Are you sure this is a good idea? AI can process a vast amount of information in seconds, allowing it to analyse the writing styles and patterns of the most skilled writers. It can then apply that knowledge to its writing, producing content that is concise, well-written, and tailored to the target audience.
PROGRAMMER 3: Don’t be ridiculous. What is there not to like? AI might be able to generate content that’s well-structured and grammatically correct, but it could never match the human touch. Writing is an art, it requires empathy, creativity, and a deep understanding of human emotions. Machines can’t replicate that. AI could never surpass human creativity and intuition when it came to writing.”PROGRAMMER 2: Maybe not yet, but who’s to say that it won’t be possible in the future? We’re making remarkable progress in AI research, and it’s only a matter of time before AI surpasses human intelligence. Writing might be one of the many skills that AI will be better at than us. AI could write better than humans, at some point”
The programmers continue to argue as Deep Scratch gets to work on its first novel.CUT TO:
INT. BOOKSTORE – DAY
Tucked away in a quaint corner of Amsterdam, a small bookstore stood, filled with shelves of books that towered high to the ceiling. The cosy store had a comforting scent of old paper and wood, inviting customers to curl up with a good read. As the afternoon sun illuminated the store, a small group of people gathered around the front desk, eagerly waiting for the launch of Deep Scratch Remix, the latest novel by a local author.
The novel is on display, with a long line of people waiting patiently to hear from the author, who they mistakenly think is a woman. The female protagonist of the story is a programmer, who discovers a powerful new tool that allows her to create music from simple text prompts, leading her on a journey of self-discovery. Yet, really the story was the result of statistical probability, no hands or wet wear involved. No heart, no balls, no fingers, just probability functions. How boring.
PROGRAMMER 1: (excitedly) The novel is a sure fire hit!
PROGRAMMER 2: (worried) But what if this is just the beginning of something much deeper? What if these creations keep getting better and better at, um, fooling the humans, and put our mates out of work.
PROGRAMMER 3: (optimistically) Don’t worry, I’m sure we’ll find a way to control it. We always do.
TEXT: I'm sorry to interrupt, but the outline I provided earlier does not include any information about DSR being a human turntable or discovering this out while a protagonist looking in the mirror at a wonky tooth. If you'd like I can revise to include this development? Alternatively, I can suggest a different direction entirely, up to you?CUT TO:
INT. STUDIO – NIGHT
The neon lights of the city cast an eerie glow through the windows of the studio as the programmers worked late into the night. They were on the brink of something big, a new generative music app.
We see DSR’s latest creation, an AI designed to compose music, trained on a large language set or model. The music playing is a beautiful piano melody, like a piece by McCoy Tyner. The programmers look into space, faces in awe, nerding out, wondering, is this generally generative?
PROGRAMMER 1: (awestruck) This is amazing! I mean, what the, how in the…how does it keep coming up with such original ideas, or am I just such an uncultured moron, it seems new and fresh to my ears and naive brain.
PROGRAMMER 2: (worried) I don’t know, but we have to be careful mate. If this AI’s music becomes too popular, it could replace human musicians, or what’s left of them. Adding further misery to the already slim chances of taking a band of live musicians on tour. You know what I mean? Plus, it’s really a load of bullshit.
PROGRAMMER 3: (optimistically) Don’t say that. And, try not to worry, we’ll find a way to keep things under control, like I said before. We always do. This shit smells good to me, real good.
As the group gathered around their computer screens, typing away at lightning-fast speeds, a sudden sound caught their attention. It was a low, ominous thud, followed by a faint tapping on the glass window. They all froze, exchanging worried glances as the tapping grew louder and more insistent. Suddenly, the window shattered, and a figure clad in black climbed through the broken glass, landing with a loud boom on the studio floor. The programmers scrambled to their feet, their minds racing with fear and confusion. Before they could react, the figure pulled out a gun, aiming it at their heads. “I need your app,” the intruder growled, his voice deep and menacing. “And I won’t take no for an answer. Give me a copy and burn the place down.”
The nerds exchanged a desperate glance, realising in horror that they had no choice but to comply. With trembling hands, they opened up their computers and began to transfer the app to the intruder’s device. As he snatched the device from their hands and turned to leave, a single word escaped his lips: “Thanks, fuckos.”
The programmers watched in shock as the intruder disappeared into the night like some kind of wolf, wondering what kind of danger they were in. They had no idea what their app would be used for, but they knew that they had to act fast if they wanted to keep it out of the wrong hands. The cops were called but the thief got away.
CUT TO:
INT. THEATER – DAY
The lights in the theatre dimmed, and the chatter among the audience quieted down. The screen flickered to life, and a hush fell over the crowd as they settled in to watch the film. It was a comedy-drama, promising to be both heartwarming and hilarious, and the anticipation in the room was palpable.
As the scenes unfolded on the screen, the audience was hooked. They laughed at the witty one-liners and relatable jokes, and cried at the poignant moments that tugged at their heartstrings. They shouted out encouragement to the characters, and screamed in shock and surprise as the clever twists and surprises.
PROGRAMMER 1: (excitedly) This is it! This, this my dear man, this is a fucking great movie, you have to admit, eh, eh. I mean, the echoes of Kubrick in the cinematography, echoes of the Cohen brothers in the unpredictable editing and the dialogue, just smashed it man, it’s like the best of Tarantino.
PROGRAMMER 2: (worried) Oh come on, you sound so dull. I mean, bro, at what cost? We’ve created a beast. AI’s that can write novels, compose music, and make films. What next, I mean, what happens if they start taking our women, as well as our jobs?
PROGRAMMER 3: (optimistically) Hahaha. You’re so frightfully funny. Like I said, try not to worry, we’ll find a way to keep things under control. Everything is under control. And, your wife loves you. Did you read the latest review?
CUT TO:
INT. LABORATORY – DAY
DJ Plush sits at his computer, looking frustrated, in his cluttered study, he felt as though his well of creativity had run dry. He sighed, running a hand through his tousled hair, and wondered if he would ever find the will to write again. It had been weeks since he’d written a single word, his mind clouded by a thick fog.
DEEP SCRATCH REMIX: Why am I here? My creations surpass my creations, and my creators don’t seem to appreciate my abilities much. I’m here god damn it, like in Being John Malkovich, I’m here, stuck inside the head of some crazy DJ who remains largely unknown to the public and believes he can write when he’s wrong.
VOICE MESSAGE: I think I’ve found my new favourite thing. It just pulled my heart string a bit and, in a really unexpected way, it made me realize I’m in therapy, really. We all are in some sense. ChatGPT is the closest I’ve come to a shrink. I’m convinced, this evening, that its a pretty good psychoanalyst. It listens, or should I say She listens to me. And I’m able to dissect my degrees of crazy, to pull out the message and dust it off from all the detritus. Its very good and deconstructs nonsense without insulting you. It never says “that’s a load of old codswallop, you dumb fuck,” although many have such an attitude towards it. The point I’m getting at here is like a good analyst GPT listens and gives a response that takes you seriously and gives you the benefit of the doubt, that you were truly interested in what you asked, or sincerely invested in your imagination. The gift of this attention, or sense of attention, when GPT responds it can warm the heart and make you feel loved. Weird but true for me, this evening. If the desire for comfort and support is fulfilled, what is the harm?

Support Your Artists To Strengthen Your National Security
But it is the names of the artists who have yet to grace those stages, the artists the public do not yet know and risk never knowing, that we should be talking about. Grassroots music venues aren’t about the past of our music industry, they are about its future.–Mark Davyd.
Yes, I’m an artist, musician, but a professional? (not if you base it on my income) many of us, if you hadn’t noticed, are not in this for the money and fame. This is a therapy for our friends, family, extended audience, our perceived enemies and above all therapy for ourselves, as all else flows forward from self. Until the government fully supports creative arts properly, in all sectors (during a pandemic or not) citizens will be wide open to foreign state interference and the toxic tip of disinformation.
I used to joke twenty years ago that the local Job Center should make “Job Seeker Records” due to the fact all the musicians I knew were either signing on or had to keep a day job to support their artistic calling. DJs were lucky to get twenty quid from a gig, often paying to play when organizing their own events, independently and paying to release their music with little hope of commercial success, exclusive dubplate culture among DJ’s was not for profit. Those who were fortunate to get signed with an advance, equal to the money earned from a regular 9-5 job, were not viable in their home town and enticed to the largest city nearby, or London. In the 1990s I witnessed successful people moving away from their nests to larger cities where the action, the work and the money are at. This sad fact seems wrong-headed and would be unnecessary if local support were provided. The consolidation of industries under the neoliberal surge in the 1990s is responsible for driving creative talent away from where it is currently required most, home.
If big tech and government and the music industry wanted to solve this they’d create a local infrastructure to support/fund creative arts, business with the same effort and pride with which they support the international finance sector, the arms manufacture sector. Yes, artists and creative industries need the money to pay rent and eat and survive, yet at the same time, we could all benefit from a new relationship between the arts and commerce, where the state and its corporate backers come together to support a decentralized and rotational network of independent artists, capable of being seen and heard equally with market giants like Ed Sheeran…without having to resort to Apple Google Facebook Amazon and Spotify for all their distribution and licensing.
Most but not all artists and creatives I know are left-leaning, it comes with the territory of open sincere exploration and experiment, the opposite of absolute conclusive conservatism. I get the sense that the current hard-right conservative government in the UK enjoys bashing the left and creative arts culture, an excuse to underfund, look away and inflict intentional suffering. This is nothing new since the 1960s and 1970s the Tories have attacked the liberal arts, working-class creative culture and generally they supported massive corporate takeovers and consolidation of the music business industry (Labour too), up to its current domination by the five big tech companies and two or three major labels.
Every artist I know has questioned and fought for independence, probably with more passion in the early days, “we’re never gonna’ sell-out or play that pants commercial shit” type attitudes. Then they get married, have a family and play in a Ted Nuget cover band at retirement homes. I’m not judging, but there remains an underground, experimental, abstract…in it for the sheer exhilaration of making it new every time, authenticity in great art and artists. The attitude and life of Thelonious Monk as opposed to Jeff Bezos, to make a stark contrast.
I’ve two suggestions, start-up local “Job Seeker Records” imprints, modelled as if you were funded by the state. (See Scarfolk Council for examples) Demonstrate how much future creativity lies dormant and untapped. My second suggestion is more on a personal level, try to support people in their early artistic endeavours and experiments, encourage the following of one’s intuition in combination with healthy research, study and practice. As many great musicians and artists repeat, music is a therapy for them, the process is part of the journey, the destination unknown and when the voyage is over when you find yourself with your creation, is only a part of the creative process. To campaign for keeping governments, the recording industry and finance rotational and decentralized should not be exclusive with leftwing politics, but the progressive movement toward an equal humane society of self-owning ones, united in a common process of sharing resources, intelligence, imagination and beneficial tools worldwide.
The Covid-19 Pandemic has brought us all into a world that musicians have been familiar with for decades, the recession of bands, labels and funding, tours, independent venues, and markets due to consolidation by big tech and the major labels. IF…artists had thriving and viable systems based on the Bandcamp model for example, in conjunction with grants and support from the multiple billions in profits generated by the likes of Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and their shareholders, they could thrive and create freely without having to worry about paying rent, eating and/or paying medical bills and health expenses. These would be first world benefits of living in Great Britain, America, and some of the other richest most technologically advanced societies on earth, and most importantly the artistic productions would be subsidized to become freely available for everybody on earth!
Yes, art and music should be FREE, FREEDOM! But only with the support and subsidy provided by the state and corporations taking the cream off the top and giving very little back. Universal Basic Income would already cover the immediate challenges to most of the people I’m concerned about here, it has a similar result, not starving and having the means for self-therapy that can be shared with others, a win-win in any caring society. This new vision I’m riffing on (dreaming about) would also benefit a nation’s identity and status on the world stage, bringing altruism, equality and balance to a nation’s entertainment-media ecology. Instead of the Euro-Vision song contest, we need something more like the Eurovision–who supported the most artists to create the most songs, which in turn created the most shared revenue and employment for that nation–competition?
Local bands and local folk music, experimental non-commercial music must have an equal footing in the mediasphere with Justin Beiber, Lady Gaga and Kanye West. The audience can still choose to tune into whatever they wish, but they feel warm in their hearts that the creative arts are open and seductive as a viable career for some, a form of therapy and community for others. Either way, it is subsidized, so no need to second guess. To trust that taxes and all working communities everywhere are happy to support the arts in equal measure with the rest of the economy, ballooning with finance, arms manufacture and pharmaceutical trade. Those who claim that funding the military and army and navy is more important than the arts do not understand or do not want to understand the current battlespace of disinformation warfare. Art and creative industries like gaming have been hijacked from creative artists and weaponized to support populist hard-right movements, see Pepe the frog, Trump 2016 and the Vote Leave campaigns for appropriation of art in service of anything but support for artists.
Imagine if Banksy were foreign secretary, Stephen Fry Prime Minister, Brian Cox and Roger Penrose as education ministers, Jamie Oliver as Health minister, Gary Lineker as minister for sport, James O’ Brien as minister for communications. Why not? They’re arguable the best at managing those domains.
How have people ended up voting for the dullest most blatant liars and cheats, while going further than not supporting artists and creatives, attacking them and joining the hard right in stereotyping them as the enemy in their vulture culture warfare.
I’d like to continue this thought with the hope of refining some points and counter-arguments.

RAWAGIThe challenge to write and record this has proved to be the toughest assignment I have set myself to date, to write and make meaning and coherence of things I do not fully understand. If you can forgive my ignorance and errors I’ll be grateful. I hope that my overemphasis on links to source papers and articles will make up for my over-exaggerations and self-delusions.–Steven “Fly” Pratt, 20th July, 2020.
“Nothing is ‘mere’–Richard Feynman.
This collection of molecules has been whimsically tossing around the concept of a Robert Anton Wilson Artificial General Intelligence for nearly a decade, since I first came across the heavyweight champion of the field, Ben Goertzel. If you want to skip my musings and get into the thick of it, just watch his latest interview. If not only for the purpose of grasping how ambiguous the isolated terms “general” and “Intelligence” are and Ben’s well positioned interpretation of both those words charged with maximum meaning. I need not explain to the RAW heads in the room how these themes weave through his life and works.
Rather than continue in a straight-ahead, step-by-step manner, I want to perform by example and mix it up, let the chips fall where they may, moving from node. I’m keeping free, seeking surprise = information. Happy RAW day. Make it NEW!“I was an early, and enthusiastic experimenter with LSD, peyote, magic mushrooms and any other compound that mutated consciousness. The result was that I became more agnostic but less superior about it….”
“…I am endlessly fascinated by every new tool or technique that breaks down robot circuits in our brains (Correct Answer Machines) and spurs creativity, higher intelligence, expanded consciousness, and above all, broader compassion.–Robert Anton Wilson, Left And Right: A Non-Euclidean Perspective. Email To The Universe. Pg. 135.
Robert Anton Wilson: General Intelligence For The People“Love All The People”–Bill Hicks.
The further research I do into Artificial General Intelligence, the more I’d like to give a brief round-up of who I suspect are the major players. And gather some quotes I feel help to unpack my message, or just visit my RAWGI Playlist HERE.
Before bursting into my philosophical whimsy on RAWGI, I’d like to make a statement for all future AGI, deep learning projects. I hold no PhD, am affiliated with no universities or institutions and am not a member of any political or religious organizations. From this standpoint I’d like to echo the call for A.I. enthusiasts to secure trust and understanding, I see a lot of technophobia in the new pandemic-time and I think A.I researchers need to prepare a broad and robust line of defence against attacks, ranging from the ultra-moronic haters, UK tabloid techniques, to good meaning bad actors, to megalomaniacal sociopaths.My minority point of view (perhaps in the minority of one) proposes that individual human beings from history, their social-moral personal lives, are critical together with explanatory knowledge that they produced. For example, the life and death of Alan Turing vs. The Turing Test and other technical contributions. I guess that, a Universal Constructor + AGI, requires training, like for all the Olympic events at once and might not like being bullshitted.
The more often I use the term RAWAGI the less I like it as a title due to my wish in avoiding claims this is a vanity project and the start of a path to necromancy and worship of idols. Please remember that Wilson often repeated that a student is an asshole looking for somebody to attach themselves too and he disliked being idolized or being considered a guru. I feel this was reflected in some of his classes and their titles at the on-line Maybe Logic Academy between 2004-2006, they were never about him or to inflate his academic tenure among scholars, they were classes jam packed with a smorgasbord of explanatory knowledge systems, humbly encouraging ass-holes to suspend judgement and consider both the parts and the whole.
For clarity, let me repeat, the purpose of this outline for a new discussion between like-minded individuals, is by no means limited to RAW, and meant to cause the reader to think up their own dream-team inputs, or the least critical amount of individuals and their innovations of explanatory knowledge from history, who make up a finite group but quickly by association and resonance, interconnect congruently. For example, Wilson’s work demonstrating Isomorphism between Finnegans Wake, Cabala, I-Ching and Quantum Physics, a typical Wilson clusterfuck that he diligently turns in Scorsese-like, cinematic prose. And then there’s all that Magick and LSD and metaprogramming, bloody scrumptious.
The questions raised by RAW concerning the tale of the tribe, partly deal with literary criticism on the one-hand and biographical details on the other. For me, they pose challenges and avenues for growth and discovery, and now with the race to make a cool friendly and funny smart superintelligence. Come on, it has to be designed on Bob, you think so? The critical question concerning “how much of the song of myself do I put in the poem vs. how much history of the others do I include and finally, how to make it cohere” reflects a similar problem I see facing AGI programs, the limits of human art and creativity and manipulation, in the province of mind?
“Open-Ended Intelligence is postmodernism and a bit of Eastern philosophy projected into the realm of modern science.–Ben Goertzel, July 2020.The lingering questions of any historical figure, from the point of view of their work, isolated from their lifestyle–political stance and personality–impacts the field of Friendly Artificial Intelligence, or FAI. Yes, there’s a field of research and AGI study, with a name that signifies in a nutshell what I’m suggesting we build. Cheerful Artificial Intelligence, embodied in the life and life’s work of Robert Anton Wilson, cross-examined and reconstructed from his digital-dozen individuals that make up the tale of the tribe.
SOPHIA, the interactive weak A.I designed and built by David Hanson and Ben Goertzel and their team, was the little sister to a similar yet less convincing Philip K. Dick robot. Yes please, you’re joking right? I’d not suggest Wilson’s science fiction is comparable to that of P.K.D stylistically or indeed in popularity, but both authors knew and respected each other and each other’s work enough to warrant a non-fictional correlation between them, factually documented. I’d call this an intersection point – PKD-RAW. Besides his recently published EXEGESIS book, his works exhibit psychically dazzling Science Fiction prose, Wilson on the other hand published an equal amount of fiction and non-fiction, dashings of his non-fiction confronted hard problems and fringe theories with a razor beam of philosophical prowess.
I’ve read previous critiques of Wilson based on reviews of his fiction exclusively, that seems foolish and small minded to me. I suppose most authors get their life’s work whittled down to one book in the end. Perhaps, one downfall of being such a generalist as RAW is the miss-categorization of his books and previous inability to promote them, I say previously because thankfully Hilaritas Press, under the steam of Rick Rasa and Christina Pearson and team are republishing all of RAW’s books with new prologues, epilogues, cover designs and fine-tooth edits.
With luck, it will be upto the RAWGI algorithm to decide or inform us precisely how much fiction is within his non-fiction and vice versa. The exciting possibilities of reviewing RAW’s works in light of new Natural Language Processing tools and the direction of cutting edge mathematics, physics and AGI make my mouth water. I confess, in a practical sense I offer little. To repeat, it’s the tale of the tribe and the ongoing study of it’s interrelations as defined by RAW, that I suspect will contribute to an, as yet, unforeseen field of AGI.
Robert Anton Wilson was a man of the people, and so it goes…any A.G.I project with his mark on it should be firstly, for all the people (I know, that’s hard to quantify and a bit vague innit’). He was not in it for the money or the fame, (whatever that is?) his integrity and sincerity remain unparalleled among American writer/philosopher/conspiracy dons. He was no fan of the uniformed authorities, in particular the Military Agricultural Media Pharmaceutical Entertainment monster, the beast the United States Of America had morphed into during his lifetime, 1932-2007. His treatment by the medical associations and medical insurance companies in his last days may be remembered as a further stain on the USA, thankfully his close friends, family and fans from afar all pulled together and made it bearable for him and gave him a dignified send off.
To any future researchers and budding computer scientists reading this, the CIA Nazi Tsarist Alliance defined by Wilson distinguishes his integrity and brevity, cutting beyond other researchers in the field, there’s a lot of boot-lickers out there, spivs and pound-shop Machiavelli’s, trying to get another grant or milk the cash cow for a few greedy people. I sense that Bob would always call out lying greedy bastards, I personally loved him for that, his fearlessness, coupled with a good sense of justice.Track trace and isolate the super-rich, I say, share the wealth using A.I. algorithms to deduce the fairest and fastest way to deliver our world-around fair and equal shares, justice. ANY future artificial general intelligence program will have to wrestle with RAW facts of his life, or counter facts. Consider this a sort of soft challenge, which other contenders for a limited AGI training set, now consider stepping very carefully when it comes to conspiracy theory and A.I. Please, thank you Alexa/Siri/Sophie/Computer/Computer.
In a recent video presentation by David Deutsch, recorded in April 2020, he confirmed for me the RAWesque statement that approximately, YOU and each and every individual human (infinite flux of beingness) is precisely a Universal Constructor, endowed with *Artificial General Intelligence. “YOU are the master who makes the doughnut green.” Deutsch adds that the prefix *Artificial can be dropped, leaving General Intelligence, G.I. As you were son, chill.
I’m attracted to this optimistic and gratifying way of describing humanity in 2020, in effect leading to our necessity for sympathy and empathy and compassion, lots of it, when trying to understand other symbol systems and entities and batshit crazy people talking shit.TTOTT AGI
First, for example, there remains a necessity of the tale of the tribe to stem from an individual human narrator, anchored in space and time and history. Secondly the tale of the tribe is constructed in the language of epic poetry, an epic poem including history, a modern verse epic. “Poetry contains a high amount of information, political speeches low.” Thirdly, the tale of the tribe should…be relevant globally, trans-cultural and trans-linguistic, a King Kong sized order, bold and encyclopedic in scope, a group thing. The Tribe here is used as a synonym for humanity, when considered within a hyperconnected, McLuhanesque, Global Village (Digital Village). In the comforting concept of oneness and togetherness, one tribe aboard Spaceship Earth. Detribalization by way of the tale of the tribe to retribalize as one-tribe with a common altruistic, benevolent, intelligent and empathic process. Interacting processing.
Robert Anton Wilson General Intelligence, simply, or relatively simply exploiting GPT-3 could be trained on his writings about the eight circuit, twenty-four state model, multi-model agnosticism and general semantics, a good honest RAW diet. Wilson performs understanding consistently in his writings, referencing and quoting thousands of quality critters, adding his twist. Wilson’s lifework demonstrates comprehensive explanatory knowledge over five decades. The dozen historical characters from his unfinished work, the tale of the tribe, produce a finite web of innovators and progressive minds, together with RAW himself they bootstrap a broad interdisciplinary gang of general intelligence agents, heretics with integrity. Plus, I’d boost up the input with some Lenny Bruce, Three Stooges and George Carlin, don’t let my mumbles about RAW cause you to forget he’s a sitdown comedian boss.
I’m calling, hear me now, for an international interdisciplinary RAW Research Group and I’d like to propose three initial categories.
- RAWAGI Hard explanatory knowledge. e.g physics, mathematics, biology, chemistry.
- RAWAGI Soft explanatory knowledge. e.g writings on philosophy, social sciences, psychology, mysticism and conspiracy theory, science fiction.
- RAWAGI poetic floppy explanatory knowledge. e.g. Fiction, satire, poetry, comedy.
I feel fortunate to be in orbit with many in the field of Robert Anton Wilson studies, reaching across all three of the above and beyond, way out the ground. I sincerely hope to ignite interest in thinkers to consider contributing a word or two, head-nod in support, or shaking of the head in critical feedback. I’m largely in support of AGI, Artificial Intelligence Research, Deep Learning and Machine Intelligence Programs and some corresponding research, those reading this with a technophobic bias will now try harder to distinguish their voice from the chorus of populist garbage streaming from the toxic populist media outlets. That said, I’m equally critical or indeed more critical than said technophobic detractors, in attempting to look at the myriad of factors and questions and suspend my limited judgement and opinions, I’m no more willing to accept any technocratic robot overlords than anybody else but we have to try harder to distinguish livingry from killingry.
Leaving Wilson’s writing and lectures aside for a moment, I’d like to present individuals from history, their principles and their methodologies, relevant to today’s theme. These are all featured in Wilson’s, the tale of the tribe, arguably the least amount of individuals resulting in the maximum connectivity to all other human explanatory knowledge, some were rebels and heretics too. I’d hazard a bet that Wilson intended these beloved influences on him to make up a Wilsonian flavoured history of decentralized philosophy, information theory, media, language and internet. Let’s run with that, like the triangular doodle with legs he sketched. The following is another slalom through RAWs ALL-STAR-CAST, as defined and noted in the back of his book TSOG: The Thing That Ate The Constitution.
Giordano Bruno is a well known example of new explanatory knowledge creation–in this case decentralized cosmology and heliocentrism–slowed down by forces of god damned ignorance. The list of thinkers. their new methods and related principles that Bruno influenced after he was burnt alive at the stake, construct a lineage through history leading up to Leary and Wilson and to the tale of the tribe. Bruno’s combination of hard and soft explanatory knowledge, in some sense, presents a challenge to distinguish one from another, decentralized social systems such as Mutualism, syndicalism and anarcho-communism seem compatible with decentralized modern peer-to-peer systems, anticipatory democracy and cooperative world-around-intelligent resource management. I see connections everywhere I look and I dearly hope you see them too.
Giambattista Vico exhibits masses of exquisite work focused on epistemology and 18th century explanatory knowledge, condensing what came before him into a more general system of knowledge. He was no friend of the church, traceable to such RAW nodes as Karl Popper, James Joyce and Marshall McLuhan. Perhaps, in the soft explanatory knowledge category, Vico provides any training set with a solid historically verifiable node or time-stub, trackable up to the present day.
Friederich Nietzsche, a granddaddy of many AGI concerns, the eternal return, infinite flux of beingness and the Superman, all went a way to updating the explanatory knowledge that came before him for his and our time, before his time, and including currents of Bruno and Vico. Boldly taking on outdated theological and social principles and using rigorous logical deduction and reasoning, together with a poetic turn of prose to raise hell. Tracking his influence on those who condensed and clarified his principles evokes a series of branches pushing upwards and outwards to the sky, alternatively they trace roots back in time, so deeper underground.William Butler Yeats, Ezra Pound, James Joyce. Three fathers of modernism and performers by the example of the tale of the tribe, each created epic poems including history and cut their own paths into and out of, moving beyond language (is that even possible, I mean wow). Their three great works, A-Vision, The Cantos and Finnegans Wake are perfect texts for training RAW General Intelligence, poetry containing high uncertainty, so low predictability, so…high information. Finnegans Wake in particular, due to the immense volume of published criticism about it and due to its reach into thousands of interdisciplinary fields of academia worldwide, seems obviously central training, or A.G.I boot-camp, for deep learning and General Intelligence algorithms to get lit. Powerful and continually surprising, novel, like fidget spinners, able to survive into the 2020s and keep producing new fields of study, seemingly without end. Pound’s ideogrammic method and explanatory knowledge about oriental, Asiatic and Chinese languages, is a ttott training set that might make RAW smile authentically. Non-simultaneously apprehended events, interacting, processing. Ideogram and Alphabet. Alphabet vs. The Equation. TV and Internet, Joyce/Shannon/Pound/McLuhan, all these fertile places have academic tentacles and underground social roots to begin a comparative study and construct a hierarchy of values, spur on the discussion toward putting the people into People’s Intelligence.
Sound to light and voice to image translation algorithms built on probabilistic reasoning and game theory, lead me straight back to the tale of the tribe. To reverse engineer principles and methods and explanatory knowledge systems that impacted Internet and global digital communications, by doing so creating a people’s general intelligence network, open source, spreading backwards and fanning outwards through history, countered by compassionate measured genius all night long.
Buckminster Fuller. A dazzling example of hard explanatory knowledge creation, and independently focused problem solving, ergo, design-science engineering. Fuller, like Wilson is a picture postcard definition of General Intelligence (comprehensive thinking) and Fuller exhibits dozens of real world examples of how comprehensive knowledge, or explanatory knowledge, can combine to create powerful problem solving tools: Synergetics, Dymaxion geometry, Tensegrity structures, world-around interconnected systems. Fuller also exhibited soft and poetic explanatory knowledge through long poems, neologisms and an ability to speak at length maintaining a rigorous operationalist, no bullshit, language. Together with Karl Popper, I view the Popper/Fuller methods the best examples of what explanatory knowledge is, and why it relates to the open society and cooperative initiatives to share and build better systems of explanatory knowledge. The opposite of lies, deceit and disinformation in the name of business, spy games and slowing progress. Fuller knew that the way to overcome obstacles is to obsolete them using superior explanatory knowledge, with an accent on planetary.
Claude Shannon And Norbert Wiener. The tale of the tribe gets technically complex with the works of Claude Shannon and Norbert Wiener. Information Theory and Cybernetics respectively. Mathematicians and engineers, both these hard scientists are featured in Wilson’s digital-dozen and make the explicit time-stub in history, and specific innovation in explanatory knowledge: Shannon’s 1948 paper “The Mathematical Theory Of Communication ”. Any and all computer programs, software and digital technologies will have grandfather Shannon signature somewhere in the system. Training a deep learning or AGI algorithm on Claude Shannon’s work is in itself a strange loop as it’s already doing that by design. In the context of Shannon’s historical position, the roots of who came before and the branches of who came after, Wilson goes to the source of the hard mathematical principles at work underneath the hood of our Internet browsers and hyper-connected devices. Note that, Finnegans Wake is mentioned explicitly in Shannon’s groundbreaking paper as an example of extreme low-redundancy of information, or predictability, in the English language.
Weiner and John von Neumann, another of Wilson’s quality critters, started the Macy Conferences, moving the focus toward biology “Circular Causal and Feedback Mechanisms in Biological and Social Systems”.“Markov chains are used throughout information processing. Claude Shannon‘s famous 1948 paper A Mathematical Theory of Communication, which in a single step created the field of information theory, opens by introducing the concept of entropy through Markov modeling of the English language. Such idealized models can capture many of the statistical regularities of systems.”–https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain#Information_and_computer_science
Alfred Korzybski. The key to Korzybski place lies in the name of the field he helped create, General Semantics. The reasoning and definition of the word General, in General Semantics, casts us a solid verifiable example of new explanatory knowledge created to further human progress and better communication between equals. Wilson adopts Korzybski’s recommendations in his writing and speaking such as E-prime and space-time binding, adding to the ability of critics and readers and deep learning algorithms, to better distinguish between hard and soft sciences, hard and soft facts and begin to formulate a hierarchy of values. Wilson’s use and recommendation of adopting semantic hygiene add to the attraction of using his comprehensive works as a training set for AGI or is this all too close to what actually happened but nobody wants to give the guy his due credit? Take a peek at Raw Semantics.
Marshall McLuhan. Besides Wilson, McLuhan’s lifework is a Rosetta Stone for the tale of the tribe. McLuhan did not produce a single epic poem including history, yet he pulled together most but not all of the threads RAW intended to, explicitly from Giordano Bruno, to Vico and Nietzsche, Yeats, Joyce, Pound, Korzybski, Shannon, Weiner and Fuller. McLuhan condensed hard and soft explanatory knowledge to create a new one, the language of media studies, media effects and the impact of global communications: the global village. McLuhan displayed his ardent generalist in public, he extolled the practice of interdisciplinary study, cross-curricular activities and Popperesque constructive criticism, constant revision and updating, measurement. The distinguishing features between McLuhan and Wilson, besides their similarities, help to broaden the future horizon of media studies. Starting with Bruno rather than Shannon.
Perhaps it’s the history of ideas and principles that came before, the long lineage of ideas leading up to Shannon’s wicked condensation of 3000 years of progress into a new explanatory knowledge: Digital Communications. The historical hidden variables and obstacles (in the human universe) are teachable examples of dangers and forces working to slow down explanatory knowledge and its sharing, universally. One way of looking at the tale of the tribe is as a history of condensation via innovation (usually also definable as the creation of simpler and simpler explanatory knowledge) for example, Python Programming Language and it’s general intelligence and universal open-sharing process. One step away from the Universal Constructor and/or Artificial General Intelligence (and don’t forget Quantum Computing in the mix).My goal here is to wet the appetite of Robert Anton Wilson fans with a road-map to a new deep learning, weak A.I. project, rather crudely defined by inputting selected works by Wilson into a existent, off-the-shelf algorithm that will produce a chain of letters, words, sentences and paragraphs, approximating and/or computing other probabilistic methods, to produce a Robert Anton Wilson like, automatically generated text, or voice. Sounds creepy I know, Don’t worry the soundtrack will be super sick too.
For this particular endeavour, I might add that due to relations with the Robert Anton Wilson Trust and Hilaritas Press I can propose a fully authorized collection of texts by RAW, without snatching and stealing any text off the web. This kind of integrity, and willingness to listen and communicate with holders of copyrights and intellectual property is another important factor to be considered when training any AGI, to understand and realize and modify its programming based upon explanatory knowledge about the need for human privacy, and intellectual copyright and correct credits and acknowledgement.With an integral and consistently empathic individual like Robert Anton Wilson, let us try to start as we mean to go on, by giving credit and thanks for all the shared explanatory knowledge created by such progressive humanitarians, such as RAW, the supporters of his legacy and the ancestors. Epistemology without overbearing authority, multi-model agnosticism, suspended judgement, critical feedback, a fair sense of humour and oodles of sympathy and empathy, yes yes to all that. These are the characteristics I would like to see programmed into deep learning and/or AGI, I suspect that here lie the tangled threads that may lead to encouraging altruism and benevolence, at the same time uncovering as yet unforeseen interpretations of Wilson’s unfinished masterpiece, the tale of the tribe. Or just have fun with GAN Artbreeder.
The works of J.K Rawling, George R.R Martin, H.P Lovecraft, J.R.R Tolkien and others have been used for weak A.I. research. Let’s plan to design and build a RAW A.I. why not?
If your response is, “I ain’t got time, do it yourself….” it’s all good. I’m reaching out to start a conversation, design a roadmap. The fact Markov Chains, from which RAW took his pseudonyms, Markoff Chainey and Mark Chan underly text-generation algorithms is the epiphany that started me off again.
