The Singularity? First analyse this...

           

            Son Nghiem of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena got a bit of a jolt while analysing radar data from the Indian Space Research Organisation’s (ISRO) Oceansat-2 when he noticed that most of Greenland's surface ice appeared to have undergone surface melting on July 12. It's 2012 and the messenger molecule is fast so apparently 97% of Greenland ice sheet surface melted by mid mid-July. That's the fastest rate than at any other time in recorded history.

            "Not a problem", say some scientists geeks, "ice cores tell us that this has happened before"

            Yes, but maybe so has Atlantis and that's why NASA issued an article called; "The Great Doomsday Scare", which credits Terence and Dennis Mckenna's book; "The Invisible Landscape: Mind, Hallucinogens, and the I Ching", along with John Major Jenkins, as amongst the prime originators of the 2012 Mayan ethos, or Singularity.

            Terence Mckenna died in 2000, so he never lived to see drone warfare, or the enormous CO2-sucking phytoplankton bloom that's recently been discovered beneath Arctic ice, an enormous, (100 kilometre wide), stretch of active plant life that's weirder than anything that science was aware of. It could affect higher forms of life in the polar region, like fish, birds, polar bears, walruses and so on because there's the possibility that the bloom could change the timing of the nutrient chain and therefore the effect on our food chain is currently unknown.

            I'm sure our scientists are working on this right now and have put all their weapon projects on hold. Maybe they can find a way to produce electricity from the abovementioned biomass because India just had the biggest blackout of all time on the 31st July. No need to try and imagine 700 million people, or one tenth of the world's population, without a power grid because it'll give you a headache.

            In synch with the Indian event, Mitch Battros of Earth Changes Media tells us;

            " Solar Cycle 24 has begun - and it has been predicted by NASA, NOAA and ESA to be up to 50% stronger than its 'record breaking' predecessor Cycle 23 which produced the largest solar flare ever recorded."

            It's agreed by most scientists that the Sun will reach 'peak activity' from late 2012 into 2013.

            Good timing, eh?

            Coronal mass ejections coming at us at 800 kilometres per hour will devastate the transformers of power stations. Transformers take months to manufacture, during which time you survive by being a wolf and boy scout while living in a cave near running water.

            Is this the format of the future?

            Looking back, new evidence has recently emerged that fossils recently found in a cave in the foothills of the Lebombo Mountains of South Africa purportedly prove that all modern culture came from South Africa. Of course European scientists challenge this theory, but also acknowledge that;

            "..it remains difficult to pinpoint where in history (that) modernity began."

            One of the things they found at the dig in the cave was a recognisable utensil that the San still use for 'applying poison' today, 44,000 years in the future.

            Of course there's always the view, as in the movie Prometheus, that the timeline of Earth isn't old enough to have produced something as complex as the human genome, so please change channels on your flat screen to the Olympic Stadium in London where an alien landing is now taking place.

            I'll warrant that won't explain everything.

Time Wave Nearly Zero

            It was recently reported in the American Journal of Primatology that a monkey species, once believed to have been extinct, was recently spotted in the Indonesian jungle by a camera trap. Scientists were 'surprised', not only because it was extinct, but because the 'Miller’s grizzled langur' was 'captured' well outside the areas it was once known to roam. This all happened on the Eastern tip of Borneo Island. Another re-emergence of a formerly extinct species, no less than Darwin's tortoise, has been discovered on The Galapagos Islands, a far flung landmass off the West coast of Chile.   Although it may seem surprising that an "extinct" animal can be found, new data confirms that species are still being discovered, even amongst primates. Since 1990, scientists have run into 93 previously unknown species of primates, more than half from Madagascar.

            Think Sumer, Ur, Caldea, Egypt, Greece and Rome and know we're next on the list, unless the radiation gets to us first because across the Northern hemisphere the toxic zone is spreading. I'm about as far South as you can get, living in Cape Town, South Africa, but it still gives me chills thinking about Fukushima. Eventually, there will be nowhere to run.

            Back to the future?

            With Darwin's tortoises reappearing, alongside reports of 'time-control' laboratories, where experiments of dubious nature are doubtlessly taking place, it's only a matter of time before Neanderthals move in next door. Do things ever get weird enough for you?

            I listened to Webbot's Clif High on Red Ice Radio on YouTube and wondered whether meditation is going to be enough. According to Clif, something will break on 10th June, probably reactor 4 of Fukushima, or another 'man-made' tsunami.

            Man-made tsunami?

            He didn't say, but he I know he is concerned that the increasingly radiated North will become partly uninhabitable within our lifetime because his personal geiger counter, get one here on EBAY folks, shows a huge increase in radiation at his undisclosed location, somewhere on the West coast of Canada or America. Of course we all thought that an atmosphere-sweep by friendly aliens was a good plot, but Clif thinks big and envisages time-bubbles, like Russian dolls, wrapping the Fukushima reactors for all of eternity.

            R.I.P. Ray Bradbury.

            No worries mate, time control is with us because Dr.David Lewis Anderson, chief whistleblower of the time controlling scientists has reassuringly reappeared after an eight year 'break', when not even Clif High's bots could find him. Bump up to third generation timewarp-field-generators  and grok that they're talking about being able to effect a 300% change in time, forwards or backwards. Dr. Anderson went dark for eight years, supposedly because of a parting between himself and 'the military'.

            Who else?

            Meantime, why not join the Cybershaman Tribe, because programmer Ernie Vega is embedding signatures in solid state matter, so hang on to your head because new states of mind are being coded, and not a moment too soon.

            Excuse me, my time-control generator is spinning.

Human Robot (H-1)

Greetings Sentient,

Before oblivion, before geology or cosmology; before Minimalism, Pink Floyd, Quantum Physics, Mind Control, Math Rock, Electronic Imaging; before Buddha, even before the cosmic microwave frequency; you only have to pose a single question;

            "What was there before the Big Bang"

            Ask that and you're immediately in trouble.

            Trouble also exists as more than ongoing threats from Alien life forms, cosmic radiation, neutron stars and black holes, nuclear proliferation, climate change, and the need to find sustainable and safe sources of energy. It's in the future so you can rearrange the order because it's emotional and not scientific.

            For 'out there' science, how about the phenomenon of the Dark Matter Halo? Not just scribbling in some mathematician's notebook or a game by Microsoft, it's something real being observed by astrophysicist, Sukanya Chakrabarti, assistant professor of physics at the Charles E. Schmidt College of Science at Florida Atlantic University. This scientist has fixed a way to find and chart dark matter halos of distant galaxies using gravitational ripples caused by the passing of satellite galaxies. How cool is that?

            Need to know more?

            Chakrabarti’s paper – “A New Probe of the Distribution of Dark Matter in Galaxies” – is published online here.

            Meantime, back on Planet Earth shortly before the purported singularity, (timestamps unreliable), scientists move the "Doomsday Clock" one minute closer to midnight. No one is exactly sure how they calculate this, but I hope it's not some concoction of conspiracy theory involving reverse engineered alien technology. The Doomsday Clock is symbolic and has been maintained by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists since 1947. The closer to a setting of midnight it gets, the closer it is estimated that a global disaster will occur.

            Predictive algorithms anyone?

            As previously reported, Future Predictions, aka The Webbot Project, has continuously predicted some negative earth changing mega-event for 2012, but some of us aren't holding our breath because obviously nobody knows much about it. What we do know is that there's some antihuman program running loose on this planet right now, and it isn't inside a computer. It's inside our own heads. It isn't that we don't hope that Aliens with atmosphere sweeping devices and ocean filtering devices aren't dropping in to help us out, it's just that we're too busy being H^-1 to care.

            March 22nd was Illuminati Day. According to David Icke and Co., a mega-shake was going to happen around that date. Portland is safe! There's only been a 7.2 in Chile with no tsunami, so we can safely assume they've struck out, at least on that date.

            Meantime, people are seeing auroras, like in borealis, much further south than ever before but most people would rather go to the movies than watch auroras, right?

            Just in case, prepare for the longest night.

            Solarstorm anyone?     

            Dark Matter Halos may be real, but in Extra-Terrestrial mythology, the 'Black Knight' satellite is for real, or is it just more spin added to the hunt for the holy grail of prehistory, the megalith from the Ancient Aliens, and all of that? But it's spooky to think that there is no evidence to suggest it may not be true. Dig this signal translation, supposedly originating from ‘The Black Knight’ Satellite, according to Time Magazine April 9, 1973

            Beginning Transcoded message;

            “Our home is Epsilon Boötis, which is a double star. We live on the sixth planet of seven—check that, the sixth of seven—counting outwards from the sun, which is the larger of the two stars. Our sixth planet has one moon. Our fourth planet has three. Our first and third planet each have one. Our probe is in the orbit of your moon"

            Message Ends.

Time Travelling Transhumans (T3)

Title: Time Travelling Transhumans (T³)          

            Time is always in the present, because the moment in which you read this is in the past and the future is only a figment of your imagination so regard the present with nostalgia knowing that a millisecond away, in the future, exists thoughts to think. Welcome to the mode of neural text, reverse causality, non-locality and quantum entanglement where the traveller is the journey into entropy; a world in transition; after 9/11, after the oil spill, after the economic meltdown, after the tsunami, after Fukushima, after Gaddafi, after 21st Century melancholia upholstered by anti-psychotic drugs help us forget ‘the good old days’ because it’s business as usual for the 1%, so what were you doing on the 29th Oct 2011, when Japanese IT expert, Shigeru Kondo, successfully calculated the ten trillionth digit of Pi?

            OK, so we've advanced mathematically but would you trust an algorithm to predict the future?

            Christopher Ahlberg, CEO Of Recorded Future, states that his mission is to; “Record and analyze all that is known about the future, and make it available for analysis"

            He doesn't see an 'open source' version of the program being released anytime soon. They're funded by the CIA so what do you expect? Can’t wait to see how it all works out, but if you'd told your psychiatrist back in 1900 that this stuff was going to happen he'd have had you committed to an insane asylum.

            2012 is in place. Eternity is setting in.   

            Plato reputedly created the concept of forever, the summation of all our yesterdays, today's and tomorrow's. He also surmised that eternity may be the point at which past present and future collide. I wonder how he'd feel about Recorded Futures or the Webbot Project, a rival algorithm to  Christopher Ahlberg's, created by Clif High and associate George Ure, aka 'The Time Monks' who claim to have discovered a "data gap" in 2012 running through May 2013. According to the Webbot Project coded by the Time Monks, this (probably) means that a Solarstorm event, equivalent to a global EMP strike, will take place in the near future.

            In case you're wondering what 'regular' science has to say about what's happening, the latest data from The K7RA Solar Update reveals that, in 2011, we only had 2 days with 0 sunspots.

            In 2010 we had 51 spotless days.

            In 2009 we had 260 spotless days.

            It's acknowledged that sunspot activity is on the rise and expected to peak in August to October 2012, so keep a grab bag handy in case you get knocked back to a pre-electronic state but grab bags are a whole subject of their own, so let's swing with some positive predictions instead. For example, Time Monk technology has also advised that a benign form of capitalism is scheduled to emerge during 2017-2020, if we make it that far.

            Disclaimer: Such algorithm technology is secret because their predictions are sold via their website so it's probably just about money, but keep an eye on it, just in case. I've been in touch with Clifford High and maybe there'll be an interview with him later in 2012, meantime take a deep breath because it's still about Corporations Vs. The Rest and our interface to the Internet could be defined as a negative or positive attitude to a bundled moment of past present and future.

            If that seems a bit complicated don't worry, philosophers and sages have been arguing over the nature of time since it was first unravelled, way back. Comparatively recently, the German philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer, b. 1788, d. 1860, taught a pessimistic view of existence which placed emphasis on human will instead of intellect.

            He proposed that; "- life is broken up into Day and Night by sleep, for if there was no sleep then living would become unbearable in its simultaneous deployment".

            It's as well Schopenhauer is not around to see humanity getting closer to a 24 hour existence. The Network allows us to partake of time to the fullest so that, somewhere, somehow, someone will crack the code of our prime paradigm, space-time. X-Post the source-code when you do, bearing in mind that most of our current technology hadn't been predicted by scientists at the beginning of the last century.

            It's an interesting analogy to view ourselves stepping bravely into the future, knowing that one day others will look back and compare us with themselves, so go ahead, imagine a world where your personal electronic slave is a doorway to enhanced intelligence. Imagine a world where images are transmitted into homes all over the world linked by a network of mechanical drones orbiting the planet. Imagine pills that manipulate reproduction, or genetically altered crops which could either save, or kill us. On the other side of a membrane soon-to-be-pierced by genetic engineering, H+ man will emerge complete with wireless implant and wrist jacks but whatever we're going to look like we'll be able to access vast 3d simulacrums of imaginary realities, so imagine cloning yourself, uploading your mind and living forever.

            Life on Earth is fast becoming anthropogenic.

            Excuse me, my time machine is waiting.

Occupy Yourself!

Problems are something we've all got in common. 

You may scoff, but the Arab Spring could be the H+ upgrade we've been waiting for. Nothing is sacred in 2011 as each of us moves inexorably towards personal tipping points, financially, environmentally, mentally et al..

At this time, things are more difficult because human evolution is badly handicapped by the greed virus. It's complicated, but if you're on the network you're in the evolution business, and memes or mental viruses are a good example of online evolution. Simply put, memes are information viruses that travel across the net in waves of intellectual seeding. Memes have become the building blocks, the basic units of cultural evolution, because they exist as contagious thoughts you stumble upon. For example, the 'Occupy Wall Street' meme is a virus that replicated successfully by passing from mind to mind. No virus software will protect Wall Street from this kind of infection. It's a good measure of how much our inner universe has been punctured by thoughts and ideologies of others.

"Words come easily. Thinking is more difficult. Nothing, is impossible."

Keep the above in mind as your networked self, a digital elf, battles the spin doctors of reality. The spin doctors appear varied but they're all the same. Whether they're trying to fragment real issues, like the evolution of non-Darwinian behaviour, or just hitting you up with the latest on Lindsay Lohan, it doesn't matter. What matters is that they wouldn't be needed if cultural transformation on a grand scale wasn't Ahoy. This cultural 'spring', it's not confined to the Middle East, could make it possible for a truly democratic rethink on the fundamental priorities of human affairs on this planet. Of course, the Corporations who own the spin doctors don't like this idea, which is obvious to just about everyone else, except them.

We're living in interesting times, or, as Terence Mckenna prophesized, an advanced state of Novelty. We live on a Planet where Exclusion Zones are birthing radiotrophic mushrooms, glowing fish and spinach that can elevate Popeye to Superman, or induce cancerous growths.

Toxic waste.

An 'exclusion zone' is an area thirty kilometre in radius around a nuclear accident area, so just make sure you've got something like an exclusion zone in your head, a zone that excludes the spin, or you'll be lost to the unfelt nuance of the rarest moment, a moment when your inner self connects with itself. Truth. An ever increasing number of people, all evolving, are asking questions. Small wonder that the Corporate Order of bankers and politicos is imploding or coming under scrutiny, whichever country you live in.

"Occupy Wall Street!"

A corporation is an inhuman and artificial construct used to absolve individual guilt. Anyone who has intimate knowledge of corporate affairs will know that the Corporation eventually becomes more important than the people it is purports to employ. A stock market is much worse. Fortunately, we now stand at an intersection of some kind, so maybe it's time to wonder what happened to the lost inventions of Tesla, or how many energy saving devices are locked away in the Corporate safe. Corporations will chew up people to save themselves. Stock Markets are much worse, because they don't only chew up Corporations, they swallow countries too.

Those in control of the global economy should apply their minds to improving the quality of life on this planet without increasing their marketing budgets, and without resorting to increasing our levels of compulsive, obsessive behaviour induced by subliminal psychotronics. To put it more simply;

"No more mind control!"

H+ is expanding and your network has become a communal contact point between transdimensionals, so be kind to your neighbours - though they be transgenic chimerae.

The Transhuman Agenda

Freedom, not fear!

Democracy, not dictatorship!

Food, not famine!

Celebratory gunfire!



Welcome to the future. Amongst many of the ambient factors we're now living with; like the Arab Spring, global warming, overpopulation and the daily extinction of species, Transhumanism (H+) is an elitist social faction born from the silent screams of billions of cyperpunks who once believed that technology could improve mankind. Meantime, Tyrants have fallen; Tipping points are rife and Entropy remains ruthless. It's more than half-way through 2011 and the ramp to the apocalypse, or singularity, has already begun.
You might as well have been captured by an alien with a time machine because it wasn't that long ago, less than twenty years, that Transhumans were united in believing that the net bound humanity together in some inexplicable way. How little we've changed, a society that still believes machines can solve problems, like the 'The Eschaton', the 26,000 year Mayan Long Count, The Apocalypse, Nostradamus, or the end of Kali Yuga. The winter solstice on Friday 21st December 2012 is not being sold or marketed as just any solstice. It's the Great Solstice, source of all solstices and all equinoxes. According to some enraptured evangelists, 21.12.2012 is about apocalypse and ascension. The end of the world is coming, a comprehensive destruction of everything we hold dear. Life as we know it will end and the winter sun of 2012 will usher us into 72 days of 'upheavals', during which time will have no meaning and chaos will reign before the cavalry arrive and a 'new order', of some kind, is installed.
Yes folks, it's going to be destruction in the vein of Noah, or at the very least, Atlantis.
Are we thus Neanderthals, dying out before the arrival of proto-humanity?
Will we leave behind the brutalities of Kali and birth a tribe of humans who will thrive on a quest for a Golden age of man? Maybe we've already been born; we who read the same book; we who think the same thoughts; we who seek the same justice, the same fair deal. Social networking continues to be the glue which binds global consciousness to the Arab Uprising, Nuclear Safety issues, ecological devastation, Earth changing natural events, or whatever you think is of the utmost importance. Back in the moment, whatever happens next year, the future isn't written, at least not on any kind of a personal level. I believe that the quality and security of your life depends on everything I've written or I wouldn't have written it, but all I know about 2012, right now, is that it's definitely coming and everything is speeding up. According to the PopClock, the World's Population right now is 6,92 billion. For 2012, its projected to be 7,3 billion.
I predict that, at that time, a whole new generation will be born, a generation of (H+) who will already be encoded with the latest in Spirituality, Art, Science, Philosophy; and for whom even physical Biology is within range as the global mind strives to reformulate human priorities for an age of reason, or thus spaek the legend.
H+, or >H, as it is sometimes written, is for everyone who can understand what it means to be linked by cell phone, tablet or PC, which is a lot of us, as you've probably noticed. The H+ Generation is busy overcoming our biological limitations through science, technology and also innovation. Prosthesis and implant will be the way forward as the H+ Generation seeks mood enhancement and intelligence augmentation, along with increased strength and beauty, of course. The ability to leave the planet and seed colonies on other planets, to explore the universe, are goals that every H+ student will acknowledge, goals that will also require extreme life extension.
But if we succeed in becoming demi-Gods, us Posthumans will easily identify the same problems we've got right now. Let's hope we're up to the challenge.
