A space cathedral…

An important one says enthusiastically, “Time to break the Ogulan and sip the Flal@##!”

The cathedral resides on planet QANN99, where π.0017 was just released… “It’s finally here—the brand new π. Make room space. Infinity just got a little bigger. Only .5674 ulglarkchs! Get yours today!”

Earth artist Erykah Badu, a member of a multi-galaxy diplomatic coalition (The D. Sight Poles), performs in honor of their beloved spiritual leader, Her Most Exalted Ghee, whose visage is said to remind of the center of a forever dying star.

QANN99′s own DJ[] on the ‘beat’. He rocks a hashtag medallion. It’s worn, woven, natural material, in a state not far from freshly separated from life, seconds away, fractions of those. It is the only thing many of the diplomats see. What could perhaps be considered his head is lost in the vastness of space, one notices an innumerable bounty of galaxies before anything that could be considered a body is even hinted at, thus the swaying medallion, the only thing in view…surprisingly, given that it is quite small against the invisible body it adorns…

He has been sampling the universe’s music for ages…literally. He ‘sings’ what our Earth-gravity-bound DJs spin, cut and mix. The diplomats wonder how they are even capable of hearing him…His voice emanates from everywhere, no source of origin more dominant than another, but this does not mean he is without the ability to regulate volume……One of his old stage names was Vampire Beat. This was the moniker he adopted during the ‘period of time we called the 80s’, to him, this period was of such fleeting brevity that in order to exist it must seem to last forever in what could be considered his mind.

the civil union

It’s always about ‘the economy stupid’. We act like the Civil War was merely a war of morals. It was about ‘the economy stupid’. Feds in Washington threatened to outlaw cheap labor! Southern businessmen had a lot to lose. Fast-forward a couple centuries and isn’t it odd how it is the Alabama state government who are the ones playin’ Yankee while the blue bloods up Nohwuth are the ones looking out for the Southern gentleman’s pride…and they are doing so by challenging the state’s authority over what happens within its own borders?! There’s a core dynamic at work here. It’s that unrelenting desire to be the alpha dog all the damn time. Absolute power. Absolute control. The Constitution takes on a religious connotation here. (I’m talking historically, like when the language it is written in is no longer spoken).

it burns…

A collection of sudden thoughts (re: Steve Jobs)

Spaceman's Hairdo — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 09:35:42 +0000

Steve Jobs helped create the future.

The iPod is a remarkable feat of engineering. It is passively aggressively able to vaporize matter. Very Buck Rogers. Back-lit screen flashes on—an effete PYOOM! PYOOM! to our senses. Suddenly tangible mediums like the rekkid, the tape, the CD, the DVD, the BLU-RAY become irrelevant. iT becomes the only tangible thing relevant in the lucrative industry of ‘previously recorded’ forms of seen-and-heard entertainment. Can’t forget about 8-Tracks and LaserDiscs and UMDs and Betamax and…help me out.

Pixar tells its stories in a hyper technical visually way. Pixar’s animation (for the most part) honors the rules of the physical world…as the toys are played with in Toys they flop around as they did when we played with them, but something is divinely ‘off’ about the way this flawless physical mimicry is presented (check out Pixar’s first film Luxo Jr.) because the technical details serve the whimsy. It’s not the other way around. Plus, they go and get all existential on that ass… Fish have a voyeuristic fetish for human dentistry. Flies are aware of relative mortality and they joke about being on the short end of the stick. Robots fall in love. Toys are shown to be mere tangible reflections celebrating the infinite nature of childhood (quick note to self: watch Toys 3 and Children of Men back-to-back). Ditto that same sentiment for the Cars movies (quick note to self: watch Cars 2 and Ronin back-to-back). Oh, and it all looks bloody amazing…

It’s fascinating how quick we all become hagiographers the minute after someone widely-known passes (‘guilty’ of it myself). Steve Jobs is widely-known because his creations offer us a personalized instantaneous connection to what we love—art, each other—presented in dynamically visual ways. It is easy to see how an aggressively social species would fall in love with such creations, but do we love iT for iT or merely for what iT provides? I know…sounds ridiculous, but one day that question may be relevant. Actually, it’s always been relevant. We asked it of ourselves when we stared into the light. We ask it when people die.

Here goes some more of that instant hagiography…imagine the history ‘books’ that will be written by people born today. How will they perceive this era? Think about this whimsical twist for a moment…Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak create a device that will launch an industrial revolution. Jobs, the biological son of a Syrian Muslim father and an American mother of Swiss/German descent wo is adopted by a Northern Californian (future home of the mythic ‘Valley of Silicon’) couple and Wozniak, a pragmatic Freemason are driven to bring into existence a machine capable of doing things better and more efficiently than the human mind. Machines that will come to occupy the body and the places in which the body occupies. In other words…attention-demanding telescreens everywhere…
