INVENTION: Aura Projector

Aura Projection with bumped-up contrast

Aura Projection with bumped-up contrast

I had an epiphany last summer and canceled my cable TV subscription immediately after I got up off my bed (where the epiphany struck).
Here’s what happened.

I was feeling extremely low-energy after taking a shower on a hot, sunny, summer day.

I had the TV on, CNN rattling on and on in the background while I went about my day.

All hot and wet from my shower, I flopped down on my bed, and just stared at the ceiling, not particularly listening to the blaring TV in the next room, but able to hear it nevertheless.

As it happened, there was a small stool with a half empty glass of water on it beside the bed, and the stool was actually touching the mattress.

The surface of the water in the drinking glass was creating a reflection on the ceiling, due to the 3pm sun streaming into the window.

Because there was contact between the stool with the water glass and the mattress where I lay, I noticed that the beat of my heart was slightly jiggling the sun’s reflection on the ceiling.

In my glazed over state, I gazed at this jiggling reflection, amused to see my own “vibration” on the ceiling.

I picked up the glass and put it right beside me on the mattress in order to create a more accurate projection of my heartbeat on the ceiling.

I then gazed at this for a couple of minutes… CNN blaring in the background.

It occurred to me as I watched the little jiggling light-spot on the ceiling, that there was a rhythm which was corresponding to the CNN noise.

WAR. ECONOMIC CRISIS. FAMINE. NATURAL DISASTER. MORE WAR. MORE FINANCIAL CRISIS. HOUSING COLLAPSE. MORE WAR. …etc…

I saw the rhythm of the announcers’ dire pronouncements in my reflection, and it was not harmonious. This jangled, aggressive, rhythm with its negative messages seemed to be “invading” my own natural vibration.

So I got up from the bed, turned off the TV, and then went back to the bed, careful not to spill the water in the glass and then resuming my observation of my heartbeat-reflection on the ceiling.

It was now much more harmonious in its rhythm.

I am amazed by this discovery, and I would like to create a device like a glass canister of some sort with a water reservoir for the user to pour water into. It has a powerful light built into it, which creates the reflection on the wall or ceiling. I may need to install a mirror in it, in order to more accurately “point” the projection on a wall or screen… perhaps a device could even be developed to “read” this reflection and interpret it through some sort of algorithm.

Turn off your TV or put on your tinfoil hat ;-)

I really think this is a good invention, again, like all my others, I donate this to the public realm. If anyone could manufacture a nice aura projector, using the amazing properties of water an light, I would gladly buy this at a metaphysical shop!

Below are some actual photos of projections, including my own, unaltered from the original (the ones above have bumped-up contrast) – please note, the photos do not do justice to these projections – I’m going to have to take some videos of these glowing patterns of light, vibrating jiggling, pulsating, slowing, speeding-up, etc.

I am interested in doing some experimentation with playing classical music, punk rock, reading poetry, having a conversation, etc., to see the effects on the projected patterns:

Ganesh Trying To Tell Me Something?

my-elephant

Yes, my photoshopping skills leave something to be desired, so I guess the pic is a bit creepy.

But I had such a powerful dream and it was a while ago.

I was on the back of a wagon, and the ride was pretty bumpy.

I was facing the back so I could see where I had been but not where the wagon was going.

Suddenly I saw this (above) elephant come GALLOPING up to catch up to me.

He was running behind the wagon and he looked into my eyes with these really jewelly-green eyes.

It was a very intense eye-lock.

And he said “____ _____ _____ ____ ____” which sounded like total gibberish to me!

Aaarrgh! It was a really important message, and I couldn’t understand – the words came out of him telepathically, not out of his mouth but out of his face/eyes as sound, but the sounds were in an unintelligible language, or more likely gibberish!

My Hindu friend was helping me to understand the dream… yes, I guess it’s about obstacles…. Or then again, perhaps a bit of undigested cheese…. ;-)

Michael Clayton – Brilliant Movie

I loved this movie – It made me think and feel.

There are several truly poignant scenes in the movie, one of which is below, and if you click the link you will find an excellent review and analysis of it, “Mithraic Mysticism” and all.

I have to admit, I have moments of clarity (I believe it’s clarity, not insanity) JUST LIKE THIS:

We hear Arthur’s confession to Clayton during the film’s opening credits. What he describes sounds less like a psychotic break, and more like a Philip K. Dick-type visionary experience. After a lifetime of conscience-less litigation, Arthur realizes he himself has become an accomplice to mass murder:

I realize we’re standing in the middle of the street, the light’s changed, there’s this wall of traffic, serious traffic speeding towards us, and I freeze, I can’t move, and I’m suddenly consumed with the overwhelming sensation that I’m covered with some sort of film. It’s in my hair, my face… it’s like a glaze… like a coating, and… at first I thought, oh my god, I know what this is, this is some sort of amniotic – embryonic – fluid. I’m drenched in afterbirth, I’ve-I’ve breached the chrysalis, I’ve been reborn.

But then the traffic, the stampede, the cars, the trucks, the horns, the screaming and I’m thinking no-no-no-no, reset, this is not rebirth, this is some kind of giddy illusion of renewal that happens in the final moment before death. And then I realize no-no-no, this is completely wrong because I look back at the building and I had the most stunning moment of clarity. I realized Michael, that I had emerged not from the doors of Kenner, Bach, and Ledeen, not through the portals of our vast and powerful law firm, but from the asshole of an organism whose sole function is to excrete the… the-the-the poison, the ammo, the defoliant necessary for other, larger, more powerful organisms to destroy the miracle of humanity.

Polar Bears Are Disgusting

You know…. I just hate polar bears.

They are total assholes.

Fuck ‘em, hope they all die.

Really, what’s the downside? Is there a downside?

Oh, if all the polar bears die then… there will be more fish & seals?

Ummm seriously, *is* there a problem with wiping them out completely? Ugly vicious bastards….
Of course, this post is in good fun – yes I would feel bad if they really went extinct, but honestly I’ll bet they don’t.

Even the babies are disgusting when they are soaked in blood.
Check out the video below – polar bears generally just eat the baby seal’s energy-rich blubber and leave the meat behind….

Can GreenPeace *do* something about these assholes?

Psychopaths

I found this article very interesting:

http://www.hare.org/links/saturday.html

I want to do a psychopath study, too. I have some theories.  Here’s one of my theories:I think it must start in the womb;  and I’ll venture that easy access to “family planning” has probably reduced the number of psychopaths in this society.
In any society where so many babies are the products of rape, I think you would find a higher number of psychopaths per capita (I have a way of solving Africa’s social problems: a free gun for every African *woman*, but that’s a whole ‘nother subject!).
I wonder if there is a bell curve or some kind of gradient in the degree to which individuals are afflicted with psychopathy.
It’s a truly fascinating topic. In 1871 an Italian doctor out of sheer curiosity cut open the head of a (already-dead!)  psychopath and discovered a physical similarity between the “criminal brain” and the brains of rats – here’s a mention of that in a modern-day article: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/science/eureka/article7011992.ece -
NB: this article uses the f-word (fascism) … what if psychopaths could be outed with an MRI? Would we want to monitor ‘em, sterilize ‘em, lock ‘em up, terminate ‘em? Is it genetic? Environmental (I think so – I think it’s from experiences in the womb – and I’m not trying to cast aspersions on the poor unfortunate women who produce psychopaths – I’m sure many of them are very nice ladies who had a rough time of the whole reproductive thang).
I think psychopaths are *seldom* violent. They enjoy their lives just like any creature and can do very well for themselves in an urban environment, particularly in the fields of finance or law. ;-)

Here’s an interesting video too:

Sports Are Fucking Stupid

I’ll just never understand sports fanatics.
I think there is only one thing more preposterous than *enjoying* chasing around after a ball or puck like a dog: that’s *enjoying WATCHING* a bunch of humans chasing around after a ball or puck.
Seriously… I guess there is part of my brain actually missing, because I prefer to watch a spider spin a web.
Also, there are terrible hazards associated with sports.

I’m in my mid-40s and have avoided playing sports all my life. It was pretty hard to weasel out of it as a kid when they would FORCE us to chase around after these damn balls, run around in circles & jump over shit like a gaggle of trained dogs in Physical Education class.

What a nightmare that was.

I have to say that I am almost alone in my peer group – I have NO ACHES & PAINS. I wake up feeling Fucking Great every morning, no bum shoulder or blown out knees. It’s fantastic. Not one sports injury thanks.

It’s bullshit that playing sports is good for you. That is propaganda – it’s part of the entertainment industry and it serves no purpose at all. Imagine if we used all that energy for something HALFWAY USEFUL?!

British Superstitions

Wow what an interesting bit of Brit superstition – just learned this today from one of my facebook friends:

if you mention, see, or talk about RABBITS, it’s very, very unlucky for a fisherman!
Boats have been known not to go to sea if they see one on the road on the way to work!

My Dad was a Brit, and I am quite familiar with the quirky behaviours of Brits, based on very frikkin’ weird belief systems.

I remember Dad forcing me to give him some money, even just a coin, when he gave me a knife for a gift.

ME: thanks for the knife, Dad
DAD: OK you’re welcome, now give me a coin
ME: What?
DAD: You have to give me a coin, some money, or the knife will cut you.
ME: Hahahahaha!!! Pffftttt!! You don’t really believe that, do you?!
DAD: JUST GIVE ME A FUCKING PENNY GODDAMMIT!

Cunt

My little sister was recently chastised by some Canadians for her use of the C-word (not ‘Canada’).

It occurs to me in this instance that we are culturally British, although brought up entirely in this maple-beaver-hockey country.

My British Dad called pretty much everyone a cunt. We didn’t bat an eye. We were aware that this was not a polite term, but growing up, we were completely unaware that for Canadians, the word ‘cunt’ is much more abominable than, for example, ‘prick’, ‘cock’ or ‘dick’, which are rather well tolerated even in mixed company.

Do women need to “own” the word ‘cunt’ just as black people own the N-word? Do women want to own it? Is it bad or good that ‘dick’ is OK but ‘cunt’ isn’t?

I can’t make these decisions.

I suppose the obvious solution is to avoid using profanity.

Just to prove to any Canadians (I suppose Americans are similar in their abhorrence of ‘cunt’) that Brits just use English differently, here are Dudley Moore and Peter Cook having a casual conversation in their native tongue. Let us refer to this as “Exhibit A” – this is how British people talk:

CURE FOR ANOREXIA

(And I’m talking about the semi-suicidal anorexics, not the vain type who just watch what they eat to the point of neurotic control-freakism)

Lock them up in a pleasant room full of interesting, positive books, yummy meals passed through a slot, NO TV or any kind of glamour mags, funny videos, & NO MIRROR. If you just leave them in there for a month or two without any access to humans they can torture with their psychological bullshit, I’m sure they’d be alive.

Then again, I think there’s some argument for making it a crime against their parents… grrr … spoiled narcissistic little bitches, torturing their Mums & Dads.
I think the most efficient approach is, upon diagnosis, take them to a special kind of (minimum wage) doctor who offers them a choice between
A)eating a balanced meal (without throwing up) or
B)taking a lethal injection
EVERY DAY AT NOON UNTIL CURED OR DEAD.

As with almost every subject, I’m with George Carlin on this one:

MEMORIES FROM INFANCY

I’ve often wondered how many other people there are out there who have memories from infancy.
When I was 5 or 6 I awoke one morning from a vivid dream/memory of my christening.
In my dream/memory, I was in my mother’s arms, looking straight up her nose, and I was crying and spluttering with all the energy in my little body because she was carrying me into a cold, dark building, and I sensed negative energy there (it was an Anglican church).
It is interesting to note that my thoughts were not in English, as they mostly are now (from time to time I do think in French or German, but almost always, I would say that my thoughts have a kind of linguistic structure). I knew no language yet. I was about a month old.
Anyway, my mother was not obeying my “command” to GET OUT OF THERE, and she continued to carry me further and further into this building while I cried to her. I felt I had some influence on her.
At some point, she placed me into the hands of a man, and I remember thinking, again without language, that my “goose was cooked” and I was at the mercy of this man, over whom I had no influence.
I then just gave up and stopped crying. I was exhausted and besides, it seemed pointless at that point.
After some fiddling around, perhaps some ministrations, the man put water onto my head.
This is the end of my memory/dream.
I awoke with a start, a 5 or 6 year old girl again, and went downstairs for breakfast and there was my Mum.
I told her I had remembered my christening in a dream and she smiled and giggled and told me that was impossible because I was only about 1 month old at the time.
So I recounted the details to her and she got a perplexed look on her face.
She said, “That’s funny, it’s true: I was kind of embarrassed that you cried and cried UNTIL the moment I passed you into the minister’s arms, then you stopped crying.”
I told her it wasn’t because I felt calm in the hands of a “man of God” but that I simply gave up crying because I knew I could not influence him, and I was at his mercy and I might as well give up crying. It was taking a lot of my energy.
Please email me if you have similar memories of infancy.

SOVIET MODEL

No this isn’t a Russian Dating post.

It’s an economics rant.

It’s interesting to me that despite all the talk of impending U.S. Dollar inflation, nobody in the mainstream media is talking about hyperinflation (pah rooskie, ‘geepereenflatzeeya’).
I was ranting about that last year and I’m surprised that nobody in mainstream media ever talks about this.

People seem confused about what inflation is.

It’s not rising prices.

In a natural, healthy, free market, prices rise and fall, depending on natural market forces, namely supply & demand!

Hyperinflation is not a situation where there are a just a few too many paper notes chasing the supply of goods and services. That’s just your garden-variety inflation.

Make no mistake, hyperinflation comes when there is NO FAITH IN A CURRENCY.

Hyperinflation is when you’d prefer to own a roll of toilet paper than a fistful of currency that nobody thinks is worth anything more than, arguably, and only in certain unstocked shops, a kind of state-issued foodstamp.

When I was in Russia in 1992, nobody wanted rubles. With rubles, you could only buy whatever basic (lousy, wilted, generally yucky) food actually did make it to market (most food got misappropriated somewhere along the supply chain by hungry workers).

Most of the food available for sale in Moscow in 1992 was on the street outside the subway stations, not in the grocery store. It was generally for sale in rubles but LOTS of rubles… hyperinflated rubles.

Street rubles, not state-run-shop rubles.

With rubles, the main thing you could safely expect to be able to buy was bread at the bread store, where the state had maintained control even throughout the shift from communism to capitalism.

You could even buy black or white bread.

It was a ruble-oasis.

I had a laugh when i saw a loaf of Russian black bread (“chyorniy klyeb” / черный хлеб) for sale for $50/loaf in the posh grocery store here in Yaletown, flown-in fresh on Aeroflots from Russia to Vancouver, Canada. I remember buying that stuff for kopeks (0.01 of a ruble, like a penny to a dollar), in Moscow in 1992, and damn, it IS GOOD STUFF.

But back to hyperinflation….

If you wanted to buy anything valuable or anything imported, people would demand KKKHHARD KOORANSEEE (‘hard currency’), and by this, they meant U.S. Dollars or British Pounds.

Demanding foreign currency for domestic sales was actually illegal, but honestly we had all grown weary with the daily laundry list of completely insane monetary/tax laws – clearly everyone at the top was suffering from nervous breakdowns and insane edicts were being mused over in every radio- or TV-possessing home in Moscow. I remember drinking tea after tea (there wasn’t much to eat) with my Russian friends, asking them over and over again, questions like: “Is it really true that the tax on commerce is now 90%? That’s what it said on the news this morning, right? Is that really true? Can that be true? Are they serious? Holy shit!”

Seriously, I remember some crazy edicts coming from the top in those days in Moscow. The next day, the rules would be changed or the proposed law would not be enacted. Maybe they were thinking out loud and kind of panicking. I guess nobody knew what to do!

I learned the Russian word for panic – it’s “panika” (паника).

None of this really surprised me (OK, OK maybe the 90% tax threats surprised me – but not the general chaos), because I had a basic university course in economics under my belt and I had been taught in no uncertain terms how silly & unnatural the Soviet economic model was.

I remember distinctly in university, taking Economics 101, and how we used to snigger about the Soviet “Command & Control” economic system. Like – HELLO – the only way you can have a healthy market/currency/economy is by letting the market take care of itself.

We, in the West, like to interfere with the market where it seems too harsh, just as we interfere with “cruel” nature.

In some ways this is a good thing, in my opinion. We can have a good effect (ie: a certain level of social welfare), and anyway AS LONG AS WE LIMIT OUR INTERFERENCE, the market, like any healthy, natural ecosystem, can absorb our impact, clean itself, and carry on normally.

Sadly, it seems that the U.S. government and the Federal Reserve in the U.S. has created a command & control economy just like the Soviet model we used to mock back in the 80s. The Fed is busy churning out valueless dollars like sweaty, desperate ponzi-schemers, and the U.S. government has apparently largely taken over the banking business and auto industry…. or vice versa…?

In my 1980s uni class, we KNEW that the childish (Soviet) belief that mere humans could actually print up as much money as they want and attempt to completely control / micromanage the market could only result in disaster.

When did we forget that?

I never took Economics in 2nd year.

I never really think about any of this stuff unless I have to – it’s kind of boring.

Has ANYONE been thinking about this stuff?

Scary.

I HATE having chunks of cold butter ripping my toast!

ALSO, i used to have a tiny travel mouse with a RETRACTABLE CORD. It was great – you would give a tug on each end of the spring-loaded spooler, and the cord would retract. I wish those spring-loaded spools were available as standalones. You could make them open up on the side, wind-in your cord, snap the side-lid on, and boom, have retractable cords on everything. Can somebody please start selling pack of 3 and all different sizes?!

WORKING ON AN OFF-GRID POD


It’s all skylights & gardens on the top level, with a fire-station-type passage to the downstairs.

I had some time on BC Ferries lately – disconnected from the Internet and looking for a good time-waster.
Et Voila:

This sounds a bit nutty, but it would be best built right into a hill - no outside profile… or as my consultant commented “no curb appeal” – LOL.
A la UFO shape…


MIDDLE LEVEL: for bedrooms (AKA: “personal units”) and a central kitchen/command center.

THE BASEMENT: (bottom level) would comprise energy / heat storage.

COLD-STORAGE (FOOD): I didn’t do a diagram, as I am thinking that to store *large* amounts of food, there would have to be a separate building or chamber, accessible by tunnel.

Now I just have to get the world’s top architects vying for the chance to run with this fabulous idea :-)
