Yesterday in the mall, I experienced an additional view of dimensionality. As people were walking along in 3D space, if they made a sudden angular change to their trajectory, they disappeared, only to show up walking in their original direction some time later.

Some good news after the tragic news that Lux Interiors died a little while back.
To quote one of his songs 'How far can too far go'. Well Lux, you went all the way!

Show me

Show me your death scars,
bloodless and clean.

Post human babies never cry,
the perfect machine will guard them
let them sleep

The riot be the rhyme of the unheard
Hard wired resistance
short circuited by the living
weighed down by the dead

We need you
we need you for organs,
we pray for your DNA

Something of interest for today...Another hero down.

Was listening to the King (Lux, not Elvis) mourning his passing when I found this quote about the great man. 62 years old, and starting the Cramps in the 70's does that to a man.

Hopefully it causes another person to be a fan.

Some 30 years ago, with the King still warm in his casket, Lux rose like a zombie from the primordial swamp as a twisted, grotesquely libidinous, werewolf Elvis from Hell, and the mask – if it was a mask – never came off. The Cramps went one step further than punk rock: they didn't merely go back to basics, they stripped rock'n'roll naked and flaunted it in its lethal distilled form: as a relentless sex beast, a psychotic release, a nihilist post-apocalyptic celebration, the ultimate in trash culture.

They were definitely a big part of my musical development.

psychobilly has always been the tip of the iceberg, a clever crafting of several styles with a total disregard for what is thought about the performers.

Black holes and spider webs

One must be a little paranoid when having a new idea for a PhD. I'm not talking to anyone about my black hole theory until I am more knowledgeable in the math needed.

I did make a little observation today. How spiders make non-Euclidean webs in the corners of my bathroom. Maybe they're trying to tell me something.

Saw Tony yesterday. He's looking worse sadly and had much trouble concentrating, but many people visited. He's one of the most visited men in the rest home. While we all love you Tony, there comes a time to let go. Death is nothing to be afraid of. Ive been there several times.

Ocytocin

Something of interest for today...

I was scanning my dream interface, trying to scrounge some oxytocin that may have been left after sleep and I found something very exciting.

Naturally, such introspective techniques take a lot of concentration. I have been going through a series of meditations and I found a tiny spike in my visualised 2D waveplanes. I must have been ignoring it as background noise in the past, but I've noticed that when I switch from external to internal visualization, its always there. Is it a natural event? I have to spend more time examining this, maybe this is the difference between the body and visualisation. I have to watch for a while to see if they are lasting events, periodic spikes or random events.

A stolen title starts this entry. I had an episode on the train today. An angel came to me and told me that I was here to understand the mechanics of the universe because I had a role coming up. I had to examine evil and find out that it doesn't exist. The same for good. Sounds like typical schizo/psych stuff so I didn't take it too seriously :-)

Samael in dead, so is Michael, during his time with Samael, he found that he had become the very thing he was fighting. Gabriel died rather than stay on Earth. All of the Archangels are gone. Maybe they're recruiting. Who knows. It was only a momentary glimpse.

My decision to become posthuman is fixed now, as is my modified quantum hole theory, I just need to get it checked by someone who I can trust with the new view, someone who won't submit it as their own.

Picked up a copy of 'The High End of Low' today and have found the BEST song in the WORLD...its 'I want to kill you like they do in the movies'. It edges 'posthuman'by the same artist out of the number one spot.

Tony is out of hospital! Hooray, cant wait for him to get settled in so I can visit.

Was learning about DNA last night, and came to the realization that there is only one species on this planet, that species is DNA. As a good evolutionary being, it is trying to adapt perfectly to its environment, hence all the phenotypes, they're just DNA experimenting for a good 'key' sequence.

That would mean that we who deal so much with intermediate tools to handle the world will soon not need those tools and we will truly become 'posthuman'.

Other options I've seen as alternatives are homo destructus, homo intelligentia, and my favorite, homo faber (the man who makes).Maybe we'll make the big jump and become homo universalis..!

Maybe lets shed the homo species and replace it with 'hyper sapien'

I'm trying to score some L-tryptophan for experiments in sleep regulation. It seems that you can't buy it in OZ anymore.

Am thoroughly enjoying Greg Egan's 'Diaspora'and am looking forward to buying the rest of that trilogy.

Lots of little things today.

Yesterday went to the RAH to visit a couple of friends, Simon and Tony. Tony was looking better but was sound asleep, so we wound our way through the corridors until we found Simon. We were really happy that he recognized us and though speech was difficult he was very entertaining, he loves being like a big kid. You could feel the love when his wife Marian came in.

There was a funny incident that happened, when Jelina met a Filipina nurse and they started talking Visayan, their home language. Poor Simon thought he'd lost it until we explained the language situation. We all had a great laugh.

We left Simon imploring Marian to get him some Doc Martens like I'd just bought. We have many things in our lives that are similar, and I look forward to getting them better.

Lithium flower has been on my mind again. She stays so golden solo.

How is she when she doesn't surf?

I've been playing with the medicine again, trying to find the perfect cyberspace connection,. If 'There's no There There', can there be no 'me either'? I'm really finding the limitations of a body to be more and more restrictive and irritating. The limited tech we have doesn't help.

I wonder what she does when she wakes up?
When will I never wake up?

Spent a while today watching Clockwork Orange in pieces that I could grab. Still has the best gang fight scene in movie history.

I'm happy Jelina is much much better. We went into the city yesterday to buy some shoes and were rewarded with a Doc Martens sale! Jelina now has a pair of bright red patent leather Docs!

Spending too much time with maths. I was advised about an author called Greg Egan. An Aussie author who is surprisingly prolific. He writes science fiction that is loaded with complex maths concepts and even better, he resolves them in the stories. Much better than a textbook.

Must go, Fawlty Towers is on.

Hi to everyone, this is a quick note to everyone I know who has the knowledge to understand.

I hope that you and your families are all O.K. We had a bird calling on our front lawn at the wrong time of night. It was quite insistent until I got up and put on the lights.

I've had enough experience with traditional cultures over the years to understand what this means.

Triggers

Just had a life changing realization!!

Throughout the history of my schizo affective disorder, I've always known when an attack is coming on because I would get the same feeling all over my body that rubbing some rough polyester fabrics would give when touched. It was a whole body thing, teeth and tongue as well.

This limited a lot of the clothing I could wear. As I've just become aware of this being absent for a while, I can't say how long, but will try many different surfaces. When about to have an attack now, I just know its coming, and if I can get to my minor medicine quick enough, can stop it before it gets started. I have 2 meds - one for minor attacks, and a heavy duty one that really helps if I am having a bad attack or am somewhere that the results of an attack would be catastrophic (like when driving).

I hope to explore this further

Not allowed me to use any of the following noms on some favorite sites. Bummer

'the antipope'
'cheerleader death squad'
'decayed of burlesque'.

I had an online meeting that was just like a real chance meeting in life. A mutual friend's Facebook lead me to an old neighbour and friend, and from there to his Dad, who we already had some history with but neither of us put the pieces together properly until yesterday.

Been reading over old posts, and while I admit to a degree of psychosis, I don't get the urge to hurt others. I don't even enjoy football games. I've often posted about an effect my illness has had and usually found a positive. They are all true in my mind; they are what I'm doing and saying, but when I discuss how I use symptoms as tools for alternative interpretations some people have decided that the results are wrong because they come from 'wrong thought'. I will say that the results stand and bent and curved as the data is, I get better results than when I'm not having an attack. I still hold that the illness can be focused to become a useful tool and will continue to do so throughout my career. Some question my stand for Anarchy without discussing the role it plays in my life. Its the only belief system that matches my illness and through that improves my analytical results.

Some scraps overheard/seen/done

football game

Now thats what I call a football game. Those cheerleasders are HOT.

Does anyone know where I can download just episode 11 of season 5 of the x-files. Kill switch its called. I'm not interested in downloading the whole series as appears to be my only option.

Found some youtube videos discussing the difference between Goths and Emos' a favorite subject between me and my son and his friends. I survived the punk days, hiding it from my parents. From the pictures, it looks like emos hold their cameras/phones at the same angles while Goths have a more formal pose.

Had another chat about anarchy. Anarchy can be gentle, friendly and nice and is not just the haunt of destructive maniacs. Anarchy on the web has a good coverage and lots of merchandise. (As the DK's said in 'anarchy for sale' - "buy buy buy from Circle-A") but I have to say that its about not recognising any authority above yourself (unless you want to). For example I have to drive various places, so I made the conscious decision to get a licence. While driving I accept that for my and others safety there are a standard set of rules to be followed. I accept this. Also there is registration, overpriced petrol, services, tune ups and tyres - all things that I accept for the sake of driving. There are many other laws I don't accept and actively sabotage others. Anarchy is about your choices. Anarchy is my choice.

Nice quote from Lilly Allen "I am a weapon of massive consumption" - great heh?

Discovered a set of triggers today that open abilities and stimulate positivity and empowerment. I have been listening to Marilyn Manson. This showman has a wild, raging style of communication, with many layered music and lyrics that I am spending time analyzing. I mentioned it before, but the deeper I go, the more I find. There is much freedom here and I intend to make the most of it.

New Life

The last few days have shown me how ephemeral life is. Sick friends, the swine flu and all of that crap opened my eyes to a new view on life. I was walking down Rundle Mall today and my sight shifted to the mall and its people and buildings as a continuous plain of data and or probability. People were gravity wells, as they moved, they dragged with them nearby parts of the plain (there's a term for this, but I've forgotten). Forgetting doesn't master. What you forget isn't important, there's been many a time that I've just lost my whole train of thought.

As Ive mentioned, I'm using my illness as a focus and way to free my ego from its bonds and have been on some rollercoaster rides along the borders of reality. But who says it is reality? Not me any longer. Much meditation allows a freedom that the drugs don't give, but at the cost of time and effort. Sometimes one is a s good as another.

So I have given myself a restart, a new life. I can be a middle aged technogoth and I will work well in AI with absolute freedom. There is no need for negativity, anger or disappointment its all an infinite universe of power and love.

I Died Again Today

Something of interest for today...

Yes death, our old friend came a calling, but I was not willing to follow the complete path. Jelina is very sick, and while she was asleep, I began performing Reiki on her. After a while, everything went white and I found myself on a raked gravel circle. I was asked what I was doing there and I explained that I was attempting to absorb the negative force from Jelina. The voice said that would probably kill me, so I said, 'she's my wife, so thats OK'. The voice stopped me about half way and said I was needed later for work on M.I. and that she would be OK with what I had taken, even though I had taken a couple of days supply of negativity.

I sat in the circle for a while and a door opened. I was told that I had to go, so I did, back to the floor of the bedroom (I had started on the bed).

Interesting experience. I wish there was some way to measure it to prove it wasn't just another psychotic episode.

Today while out shopping I was assailed by a woman who took my circle A hoodie to be an affront to her religious beliefs. After making a scene, she calmed down and I convinced her to sit with me. A scary prospect when you're a 50kg 60 year old woman and I'm a 120kg, touching on 6' clad in black with piercings and holes all over the place.

I cleared the air about Christ first. First, I do not embrace Christ, my God is dead (died 10 may 1964) but we still carry on with the heat from his decomposing body.

Secondly, Anarchy. I am an Anarchist and proud of it, but Anarchy does not have to be violent. The old image of the bomb wielding mustached villain is merely a reflection of TV. I am non violent and like to encourage creativity. The circle A is just a symbol. Anarchy is merely another take on personal freedoms and it is up to the individual as to how they present.

So she sat and we talked but I don't think I got any message across. The only way you can educate people is by living the example of your philosophy.
