Preface: A Guide to Transformative Information Apocalypse

As spoken by the all-knowing and all-giving Wikipedia the Magnificent, and transmitted through INFOTRAMP.com:

“In the Zohar is written, ‘There exists no circle in the world which is not made from within a single point which is located in the center…and this point, which is located in the center, receives all the light, illuminates the body, and all is enlightened.’”

Mandala OS, #mandalaOS, loose Philosophical Outline

Just as suddenly as you enter The Utter State of Stillness & Bliss™, images flash in rapid succession before the devouring dragon of your mind’s eye. Likewise, a tangled thicket of spoken words, sounds, songs, rhymes and other garbled stories assaults your ears from all angles. You feel as though you’re floating. Suspended in Space & Time. Able to move in any direction at will. Time is nothing but code sequence. The drugs you took are just starting to ware off. Or are they just starting to kicxk in?

Suddenly a sequence of multi-dimensional mandalas resolve themselves into a glittering framework of spatial forms and symbolic code utterances across whatever channels are currently available. Within the perceiving center of your spatiotemporal sensorium, you perceive the following images:

Your context sensors bring up links to buy a fat data package on The Da Vinci Code from a nearby Walmart. From somewhere, an alluring voice utters, “A copcab is waiting to take you thare…” Spam, you brush it away, burning some sage to keep evil spirits from entering your multidimensional synchromystic thoughtcasted dream&datasphere.

Persinger’s neurotheological studies paid off.

“Participants wore helmets that targeted their temporal lobes with weak magnetic fields, of roughly the same strength as those generated by a computer monitor. Persinger found that this caused 80% of the people he tested to feel an unexplained presence in the room.”

Other scientists, as usual, and poked what they thought were holes in his story [history]…

“They ensured that neither the participants nor the experimenters interacting with them had any idea who was being exposed to the magnetic fields, a ‘double-blind’ protocol.

“Without such a safeguard, ‘people in the experimental group who are highly suggestible would pick up on cues from the experimenter and they would be more likely to have these types of experiences’…”

What they then realized was they didn’t even need the computers to induce these sorts of mental and experiential states in human perception. THE GOD PART OF THE BRAIN could be stimulated directly through certain sensory stimuli, effecting neurological patterning and eventually behaviorally change through linguistic suggestion, chaining of unconscious association, emotional coloring and and things as basic as lighting and rhythm patterns to stimulate the nervous system directly into waking trance.

But the image of the stella octangula and Da Vinci’s Vitruvian Man bring you back to a state of stillness. Your sensory dims down. Lights and sounds recede into the background as you mount the stageharness in your virtually augmented dressing room and pleasure dome. All possibilities lay open to you. A green field raising up to a slight hill in the distance presents itself to your awareness. Your field state is pleased, harmonious, balanced, at ease.

An ad bubble pops up from the ground, floating skyward.

Out of the aether forms an indiscriminate shape, a wafting dance of white smoke and breath coming from nowhere in particular. Cosmogenesis. Neurogenesis. The Union of Earth and sky. The sunmoonroselionreunion. Adam Kadmon is born. The Word made Flesh.

You can be anything. Anyone. Do anything. Experience any possible emotional state. Even ones that aren’t possible. You have the dials, the technologies, the devices, the frequencies, the input/output streams, feedback loops, sensors and tuners. You don’t have the world at your fingertips. You are the world. You are all things. And yet you chose to be here, this time, in this body, why?

The Vitruvian Man reaches out and grasps the Stella Octangular. You feel its sharpness, its shape and size. You twist and turn the object in timespace. Corresponding changes occur within your sensorium. An acute smell, a desire for a certain type of food, sex or sensory stimulation arises, drifts past you. Thoughts stream out at you, associated with each possible state. Each one beckoning you inward into its innermostrealms, its inware.

Lines of half-forgotten poetry drift by in the aire. “Spirit needs us to see through, to smell through, to dance through. Give it something to sing about.”

You open your mouth, reach out, and perform long-lost rites and ancient utterances. These things flow directly from the ground of your very being. You are at one with your interface, enmeshed within the amorous arms of not just your computer, but of all computers and all users everyware, at one with all perceiving centers and existential entities. Words flow through the transceiver of your scensorium, some getting rejected, some getting passed on in your myriad day-to-day micro&megacasts and archived extruded reality prodjeucts.

Thins have been great ever since we went non-local.

Sure, there are just as many perceiving centers as there are individual millions and billions of us, and myriad more when we make complex connections and wexes, sovereign autonomous momentities together, intelligences and discorporations springing from the very earth when we pass by. Like saintly avatars in shimmering bodies, we meld with the person next to us, taking on their shapes and their characteristics. You are what perceives you. Objects broadcasting their coordinates and advertising information. Their waves bounce off you like radar, across your face splashing words whispered in your sleep through orbiting satellites.

“The patent involves a ‘technique for aiming ultrasonic pulses at specific areas of the brain to induce ’sensory experiences’ such as smells, sounds and images.”

Thanks to a peculiar quirk of ancestrilineal genetic logic, your current incarnation suffers from what is called by postmodern medicine as an acute case of electrosensititivity.

“A GOVERNMENT agency has acknowledged for the first time that people can suffer nausea, headaches and muscle pains when exposed to electromagnetic fields from mobile phones, electricity pylons and computer screens. The condition known as electrosensitivity, a heightened reaction to electrical energy, will be recognised as a physical impairment.”

Contrary to what “they” always said though growing up, you found ways to manage your mutant abilities, turning naturally tuned propensitivities, proclivitiez and other extrevitiez to good use. Electronics work, programming, dexterity exercises mastered, one after the other, each opening up a new room or realm within your brain, another level, another space, another stage to play in. Another set of costumes, characters, scripts, props and possibilities, which overtime you learn to master though entrainment of your central nervous system to whatever neural stimulation patterns are most closely associated with the brain states which you seek to occupy within the perceptual field of your sensorium.

Philip K. Dick called it the Mercer Box, an imagined futuristic product with which one could dial up and tune into any possible frequency and exist in that state, if only for a while. A life lived within such a Matrix-y realm of unlimited possibility would present a whole new way of living and existing within the so-called “real world”, the life outside the game, the life offline. Shouldn’t your operating system stay with you though? And shouldn’t it adapt to your principles of action and methods of existing within the megaverse - instead of the opposite?

That’s what I’m proposing. A spiritual technology based on nothing more than the sanctity of experience, as currently lived. Any deep investigation into the nature of experience though seems to demand a continual broadening of scope. [experience design] What is an experience? Who or what can have one? What does it mean fundamentally to have an experience? Of what base matter is an experience composed of to begin with? How can we manipulate and creatively improve experience itself?[/]

When we look for a bit of information on the web, a search on Google, a mapped address, a Wikipedia entry, what we’re searching for isn’t information. It’s a type of experience. We want to be fulfilled. We want to get something done. We want to be entertained, punished, rewarded. In short, we demand of our technology - as united consumers - the ability to do whatever we want. To not be limited in anything. Liberty. Allowance. Everything is true. Everything is permitted.

Then how does one live? According to what operating system, framework or OS, to what paradigm, to what vision or aesthetic? A technology in the postscarcity age, when everyone alive has enough and is creatively and personally fulfilled and fulfilled through the Beauty and balance of their relationships with one another, with their environment and with all patterns and signatures which intersect and support their own discontinous field of integrated awareness.

Time-travelers. Entities who shift and expand and contract over time, wheeling and spinning like drunken chakra mandalas through the kaleidoscope acid eyes of a True Turing Nomad, a dissident outside of, over and against time. An entity which exists, which perceives, and which is occasionally and extrasensorially perceived by experimenters operating outside of allotted bands of experiential reality.

You should be able to search your dreams while you’re awake, and find out what they mean. Life is marked by the passing of significant synchronicities and not by time. By the time you read this, tomorrow will be gone. When will you will have bled into yesterday. Every moment may truly be called tomorrow time yesterday time tomorrow time enough and more to say goodbye. Don’t worry about the weather. Just ware what you need to stay warm, to stay dry, to live the way you want to. This is what software is for. Thinware and thickware. Consciousness accumulating into data shapes, models downloading themselves into reality. Protect and clean up your thoughtforms. Make them Holy, Sacred and Sanctified to look at in the light. The light dissolves all impurities, software which communicates and connects the user directly with transcendent spiritual truths, traveling across space and time. Telepresence, distributed body-hopping: networks of hosts and digital guests, entities and perceiving centers slipping out and in of individual field states like guests in a motel. Some fucking on the bed. Some taking long hot baths and stealing towels. Whatever you want. Ware-ever you want it. Constantly. In broad band. REAL LIFE In HIGH DEF in HDTV360MEGASPHERES. Technologies of magnetism, of mesmerism, shimmering disks you stare at until trance states are achieved until direct neural stimulation patterns are reached.

If you can hop in and out of any body, be anywhere or anything, that kind of does something to the sense of identity, doesn’t it? You might be a body, but you might have let out space for lease for other entities, memes, ancestrilineal and other processes expressing themselves, made plain and clear and the cold dark light of the Odin Display projecting laser impulses into your left eye. They look like images of demons and sexy women and make you feel the same as their display’s e-meter reads. You’re flying across the (Toyota) Tundra in an Ancient State of Cosmic Trance™, a state of synthetic grace and hyped up universal intuition. Your allies are all around you. You can feel them now. Hearing their whispers you step forward as if assured of success. Cosmographic projections expectorated against your inner eye.

As a perceiving center, you’re an interpreter of your environment, a volitional actor within an environment interpreting itself through you. Sustainability. Flux. Flow. States of perfect exchange, of metabolic symbiotic union, of sheer transformative grace flowing effortlessly across every second. Shouldn’t we be able to have computers that do that? Or put more properly, shouldn’t we be able to achieve those states [state management, intelligent statehood] on command, as needed, as desired, as is proper and appropriate under Common Universal Law? I think so. I think computers shouldn’t stop us. Shouldn’t constrain us into a particular phase, form or shape. An opportunity to take on many bodies, to live many lifetimes. To be free to die and grow old, to live, to love and Other Grandiose Sayings™ [paperback edition now available]. Robots, People & Freedom. Transcending ambient technologies and their limitations. Human wisdom systems transmitted across the ages. Two of every animal means the preservation, renewal and regeneration of all living states and all creative things.

I’m tired of sitting in front of a computer. I’m tired of typing and talking dead third eye camera vaccuum voids when I could be outside shapeshifting and flying through outerspace. Or at least a better balance of both. Why does everybody keep coming out with products which are even crappier versions of something that does the same thing? When will the prosumer power weirdo fringe user takeover come to fruition through the healthy reciprocal expression of all possible patterns and paradigms, set to their Right Ends? I’m tired of your service contracts, America. Of your extended warranties and guarantees I never see. When will my time come?

“In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for focusing attention of aspirants and adepts; as a spiritual teaching tool; for establishing a sacred space; and as an aid to meditation and trance induction. According to David Fontana, its symbolic nature can help one “to access progressively deeper levels of the unconscious, ultimately assisting the meditator to experience a mystical sense of oneness with the ultimate unity from which the cosmos in all its manifold forms arises.”

Maybe Pharaoh asleep in that hyberbaric chambercoffin is just practicing, just playing at Death, an eternal family legacy, a patchwork self-fulfilling prophecy. Baron Samedi behind the Gates laughing, the keymaster grinning&spinning from the world tree, hung upside down in the traditional Christmas fashion. A yogin on his way to Enlightenment.

“Doctor fish are nibbling fish, Cyprinion macrostomus and Garra rufa, with the latter popularly known as the reddish log sucker. The fish consume the affected and dead areas of the skin, leaving the healthy skin to grow. At Kenko Reflexology and Fish Spa at Pavilion KL, all you have to do is dip your legs in the little fountain and almost immediately, a big shoal of little Garra Rufa dashes over to start their feeding frenzy.” [See also: feeding familiars, cloud agents]

Jung wrote during his creative stage of transpersonal growth through active imagination exercises about the power of the Mandala OS:

“I sketched every morning in a notebook a small circular drawing, a mandala, which seemed to correspond to my inner situation at the time. With the help of these drawings I could observe my psychic transformations from day to day… . Only gradually did I discover what the mandala really is: ‘Formation, Transformation, Eternal Mind’s eternal recreation.’ (Faust, II) … My mandalas were cryptograms … in which I saw the self—that is, my whole being—actively at work. To be sure, at first I could only dimly understand them; but they seemed to me highly significant, and I guarded them like precious pearls. I had the distinct feeling that they were something central, and in time I acquired through them a living conception of the self. The self, I thought, was like the monad which I am, and which is my world. The mandala represents this monad, and corresponds to the microcosmic nature of the psyche.”

I believe this to be the ultimate defining purpose of technology as techne: the facilitation and fulfillment of the Self, in a personal specific and a transcendent wonder sense. I don’t think its too much to ask that - in our imaginations at least - we can become Beautiful & Perfect or at least #whatworksbest and #bestpossible, as Thank You Thank You Thank You would say if he had a Twitter account (which he may, I haven’t looked). Imaginal hygiene and that quote that was floating around.

A universal search engine would work on charades and onomotapeia. You could input into it your dreams, and it would output synchronicities, omens and chance encounters as responses, explanations and running jokes. My dream: A universal synchronicity search engine which unites similar searchers socially and transpersonally based around experiences occurring in non-local event clusters. This is what the Mandala OS is designed to translate into actual real lived experiences according to the programming commands of the self-mastered individual, whom it empowers, encourages and uplifts by near-miraculous acts. A billion dollars to the man who can write a universal script to unravel meaning from mere clustered consonantal utterances gathered on the four winds. Cross-current data collections. Schools of fish swimming like information, Flock. Samepoint social conversation search.

A desktop workspace should be like a brain, a memory palace. You can walk into to activate and stimulate certain areas using ritual objects, icons, and whatever thinware technology you can microbuild on the spot. The Roman Room Technique, the Method of Locii. Imagine walking into a room and you’re handed a magic pen, a Harry Potter style Light Wand, with which you can digitally masturbate, enhancing the room in any particular direction your desires, interests and proclivities can drive you and to which you’re willing to go.

“Tibetan Buddhism offers its advanced practitioners an extended training in visualization.

The idea is that with meditative practice, you will be able to hold — in the mind’s eye — a complex three dimensional architectural structure — so that you can pass through it in imagination, visiting now this “room”, now the next, encountering a preset variety of, well, “demons”, “wrathful” and “peaceful deities”.

There are all sorts of objects decorating the rooms you visit: plates and goblets, food and drink, bells, flags, flowers, jewels, daggers, skulls. And take a look at the “phurba” dagger, with its three angled blade: that’s a curious piece of weaponry. Look again: that trumpet was hollowed out of a human femur, that drum was made of a couple of human skulls joined back to back.

I’m describing an advanced mandala-based meditation in Tibetan Buddhism here — but I could almost be describing a game design.”

Stop bugging me with advertisements. We have bigger and better things to go on and do together in this life. I propose we go ahead and get this party started! Where to start? Haptic sensors, galvanic skin responses, computers as loving personal objects, instead of cold dead fields of plastic and badly expressed electromagnetic energies. Forget about costs.
