a sustainable avenue for adventure is in the chaos of powers.
control must wane to the wild and fall back like a meadow regaining from fire.
it comes as a counter-inspiration to wipe clean the old totems and keep it itself.
it's the thirst for immolation.
fear of gods and fear of their demon brethren. they tie themselves by the tail.
Thu, Dec 15, 2011 Permanent linkThis is fantastic. Thank you for sharing this, and the "You are a Receiver" post.
I appreciate this part:
Our stated goal is to re-ignite the art of the "performing philosophers" ... like Timothy Leary and Buckminster Fuller... A post from Wildcat here on Space Collective speaks about “thinkers who act as substantial agents of change, who drastically alter the infocologies they interact with, in the process transforming and meshing the different dimensions in which our minds operate.”
I wish that was an "actual job". I'm always in the situation, lately, of having to explain to people what it is I do or want to do, and it's always really awkward and difficult. This is something between artist, scientist, designer, & philosopher.
The most exhilarating realization, then, is that we all have the power to shape our experience by our linguistic and creative choices.
Yes!
Is there room for one more on your team?

@nom galactic conquest, quite an extrapolation indeed, we know not what we do when we pronounce the word, and well, the bird is the word. can it be any other way? and we are but pond skippers in a very deep ocean, our conscious minds blessed (cursed?) with a perceived continuity of surface tension...
@olena, we are always open for more collab! private message us your email. nom nom more minds..;-)
Yes, this is again amazing. I need two brains to watch and listen to the movie. Yet, I do feel slightly more informed.
A while ago, I felt the great fortune and thrill when unexpectedly I watched a movie in the middle of day, during lunch. I felt that I was overworking and was ill, so I allowed myself to travel around the world with the racers in mighty Lamborghinis. The movie was exceptionally well edited. It had the old-fashioned approach to filming the roads, traffic, and cars from all sorts of angles, from air and in multiple frames. They recorded few events along the way, a lot of cursing, few seconds of footage related with the local culture, and many situations in which crime was a sport. It was all spiced with extreme-sport events that they visited along they way.
I felt the great awe and nostalgia for the landscapes such as the roads around Las Vegas. Of course, due to my issues, I also believe that the expansion of cities and pollution are destroying the world, so paradoxically it seems that I like (the USA) what I hate. If all the roads and cities are bad for human beings in some way, their expansion is a part of human misery.
So for example, to relate this with your movie, the economy of New York is probably destroying the USA and the misery is expanding further on. But, the patterns such as the highways or the city scape are still fascinating. It is sufficient that the expansion is based on a few simple mathematical rules to create those patterns. Even if the cities expand and become a garbage land, they will look interesting. The process is chaotic and ordered at the same time, so the patterns are nice, rich.
It is just a thought. My point is that the patterning of the universe is somewhat inhuman or not that humane.
