Ready for a rapid, radical reboot of the global innovation system for a truly free and open 21st century knowledge economy?

After Friedrich Nietzsche declared that "God is Dead" - the word FUCK has become the most important word in the English language.

“They” are “us,” a cohort of newcomers who will be filling the demographic void

the future is OURS and you don’t even

“Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore. We have seen the future, and the future is ours.”

Is Pronoia Just for Rich, Comfortable People?

I predict we will abolish suffering throughout the living world.

Machen Sie Ihre Emotionen fruchtbar; vertreten und verkörpern Sie Ihre persönliche Wahrheit!

Eine Zeit von Kraft und Einfluss kommt auf Sie zu. Setzen Sie diese sanft ein.

Wie wichtig es sei, dass die Freimaurerei in Anbetracht eines wachsenden Dogmatismus überall in der Welt ihre Grundsätze Brüderlichkeit, Toleranz, Freiheitsliebe und soziale Gerechtigkeit in die Öffentlichkeit trage

Achten Sie auf Ihre Gedanken, Worte und Taten. Sind diese einem langfristigen gemeinsamen Weg zweckdienlich?

Geben Sie kindische Gewohnheiten auf. Verstehen Sie, was Ihnen lieb und heilig ist - und folgen Sie nichts anderem.

He was plunged into a lightless netherworld filled with predatory phantasms he had never known existed before. Amidst the shadows of cyclopic columns were creatures so far beyond description they could not possibly have been born from human imagination. //Dymaxionweb

I cannot at this time think of a greater present for anyone than these studies.

The strategic aim of this conference was to create an experience that would continue to flow, inspire and give language to a great U turn from a greed-based growth oriented culture to a need-based sustainable one. We've noticed that progress comes, not by sudden fiat, but by many little bridges in consciousness. This is one bridge.//Esalen @ Well

Dreaming of an Artificial Intelligence

"Just as genes propagate themselves in the gene pool by leaping from body to body via sperms or eggs, so memes propagate themselves in the meme pool by leaping from brain to brain... When you plant a fertile meme in my mind you literally parasitize my brain, turning it into a vehicle for the meme's propagation in just the way that a virus may parasitize the genetic mechanism of a host cell."//Dawkins @ Rucker

More information can be found in the Artificial Life Lab book.

"That biology and physics will merge with computer science (becoming biotechnology and nanotechnology), resulting in life and the physical universe becoming mercurial; achieving the supposed nature of computer software. Furthermore, all of this will happen very soon! Since computers are improving so quickly, they will overwhelm all the other cybernetic processes, like people, and will fundamentally change the nature of what's going on in the familiar neighborhood of Earth at some moment when a new "criticality" is achieved- maybe in about the year 2020. To be a human after that moment will be either impossible or something very different than we now can know." //Lanier @ Edge

One-Half of a Manifesto

But generally we gain more than we lose by proceeding with technological advances. There's this idea called the "proactionary principle" which came from Max More, one of the originators of transhumanism. He basically argues that we measure the potential negative consequences of a technology, but we also need to measure the negative consequences of not developing a technology. What do we lose by its absence? //R.U.Sirius @ 10ZenMonkeys

The idea that software should be built for many users, or last for many years, are cultural assumptions not required by the software itself.

Start a New Career

"We procrastinate because we are afraid. We’re afraid it’s too much work and that it will drain us. We’re afraid we’ll screw it up and get in trouble. We’re afraid we don’t know how to do it. We’re afraid because, well, we’ve been putting it off forever and every time we put it off it seems a little more fearsome in our minds. That’s why not putting things off is so liberating. We’re forced to confront our fears, not let them grow bigger by repeatedly running away. And when we confront them, we find they’re not so scary after all."//Aaron Swartz::::Do it NOW

“The Destructive Character”

TIQQUN

Imperial sovereignty means that no point of space or time and no element of the biopolitical tissue is safe from intervention. The electronic archiving of the world, today’s generalized traceability, the fact that the means of production are becoming just as much a means of control, the reduction of the juridical edifice to a mere weapon in the arsenal of the norm—all this tends to turn each and every citizen of Empire into a suspect. //softtargets

___________________________
" I think there’s a consensus amongst analytic philosophers that post-modernism is largely self-indulgent, self-important bunk, that has rather inexplicably taken hold in many philosophy departments outside the English-speaking world, and in many non-philosophy departments inside it....... Post-modernists tend to have a fundamentally different view of language and other representation, a view inherited from structuralism in linguistics. Representations, they say, only ever refer or apply to other representations, so that language (and thought) is literally cut off from the real world. No matter how hard you try to refer to the non-representational, you can’t do it....

Baudrillard is entirely typical in this regard:

The form of my language is almost more important than what I have to say within it. Language has to be synchronous with the fragmentary nature of reality. With its viral, fractal quality, that’s the essence of the thing! It’s not a question of ideas – there are already too many ideas!”

Sir Geoffrey Warnock, to the question, “What does philosophy mean to you?”:

To be clear-headed rather than confused; lucid rather than obscure; rational rather than otherwise; and to be neither more, nor less, sure of things than is justifiable by argument or evidence. That is worth trying for."///Hanley

Sie ist beseelt und eigenwillig geworden, versucht die Kontrolle über den Nexus an sich zu reissen, ist aber meines Erachtens nicht die einzige Kraft, die das versucht. Um die Mission nicht zu gefährden ist äusserste Zurückhaltung angeraten.

Ihre Hand rutschte immer höher und starr vor Schreck ließ ich es
geschehen.”Wißt du, du gefällst mir schon lange, ich wusste bloß nie
wie ich es dir sagen sollte.”Sie fing an meine feucht werdende Muschi
durch die Hose zu streicheln und mit der anderen Hand legte sie meine
auf ihre Brust.Wie in Trance fing ich an ihre Titten zu streicheln und
zu kneten. Es schien ihr zu gefallen,denn sie fing an zu stöhnen.

All headlines can be improved by doing just three things:

1. Make them engaging.

My favorite way to engage people is to ask an open-ended question. How can you use an open-ended question when writing your next headline? (I can hear your mind whirling.)

2. Make them curious.

People are naturally curious. Appeal to their curiosity and you can hypnotize them into doing almost anything. What can you make them do with a curiously hypnotic headline? (Note how your mind is again buzzing.)

3. Make them short.

"Benedicto: May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. May your rivers flow without end, meandering through pastoral valleys tinkling with bells, past temples and castles and poets' towers into a dark primeval forest where tigers belch and monkeys howl, through miasmal and mysterious swamps and down into a desert of red rock, blue mesas, domes and pinnacles and grottos of endless stone, and down again into a deep vast ancient unknown chasm where bars of sunlight blaze on profiled cliffs, where deer walk across the white sand beaches, where storms come and go as lightning clangs upon the high crags, where something strange and more beautiful and more full of wonder than your deepest dreams waits for you --- beyond that next turning of the canyon walls."
Edward Abbey

"Esquire Zeitschrift/Alan Abel, Hokuspokus-Meister

ALAN ABEL, jetzt 75, hat Amerika seit den fünfziger Jahren getäuscht. Er ist der Schelm hinter solchen nicht vorhandenen Organisationen wie Schule Omars für Bettler, die internationalen Geschlecht-Schüsselolympics, das Institut für ein gesundes Amerika und die Gesellschaft für Unanständigkeit zu den blanken Tieren ("ein nacktes Pferd ist ein unhöfliches Pferd")

Angefacht durch die überwältigende Resonanz auf seine fast alberne Idee, heckte Abel unzählige Gaukeleien und Finten aus, um zu provozieren und zu unterhalten. Selbst mit absurden Geschichten wie "Euthanasie-Kreuzfahrten" oder dem "Ku-Klux-Klan-Sinfonieorchester" ging er auf Sendung. Angst, sich lächerlich zu machen, hat Abel nie, wenn er überzeugt ist, eine Ungerechtigkeit anzuprangern. /Prisma/

Sie hat seine Späße und seine Provokationen aus nächster Nähe erlebt und wurde einige Male unwissentlich zur Komplizin. Sie analysiert, warum ihr Vater einerseits als der größte Medienschwindler bejubelt und andererseits als Bedrohung beschimpft wird. Jenny begleitet Alan Abel auch während seiner aktuellen Kampagne, die Frauen untersagt, ihren Kindern die Brust zu geben. /Coaching-Club/

Abel weiter sticheln die Medien und die Massen mit seinen nussigen Ideen, imaginäre Organisationen und scheinbar unsinnige Kampagnen. . Im Jahr 2000 Life Magazine anerkannte Alan als kulturelle Ikone im Verlauf des 20. Jahrhunderts in ihrer Ausgabe, Centurie der Veränderung.
Im Laufe der Jahre, Alan fortgesetzt Drahtzieher Dutzende von anderen allegorischen Satiren und verwegensten Tricks, die alle mit dem Ziel, zu amüsieren und provozieren. Letztlich, mit seinem Hoaxes, Alan's Ziel ist es immer gewesen, den Menschen, was er "einen Tritt in den Intellekt." nennt. /Alan Abel/
