We are the universe understanding itself

Hello,

I don't know you, but i came across your page using a keyword search.
Some of the stuff you write is fascinating.

We truly are the Universe understanding itself in the form of human perception. We do have remarkable potential, but there is a part of us which limits our ability to do these amazing things you speak about.

I understand you're involved with Virtual Reality. I have not had the pleasure of knowing anything about it, but i have had a fascination about it for the past 2 years.

This technology, along with many other proposed systems which would enhance our lives, and would propel us into a new realm of consciousness, is not embraced for the same reason societies seem to remain stuck in its cycle of familiarity.

Some people have an intense desire to control people, whether it be a small group or a large population. If you occupy peoples minds with useless information and material that dulls the mind and gives no ability to critically think, you produce obedient, ignorant, fearful mindsets which may not be the same, but to the specification in which the designer(s) finds relative to their needs. Most people don't want a clue of how their lives have been shaped by forces they could not control.

For technology, we have a limited number of people with an adequate understanding of digital systems in order to produce tomorrows next inventions. Sadly, most people who use the products have a very limited concept of how these devices seem to magically perform the operation.

There is one component of society which is to blame above all. Money. Not so much the mechanism of trading a currency for something of relative value to it, but the art of capitalism which incorporates special systems which are designed to sell substandard products which has been manufactured to be obsolete in an X number of years. While this is going on, these same companies leave the prototypes of the next generational gizmos on the shelf. They do this in order to create components for it which will also be destined to fail at their desired amount of time.
Just think of it, if we had not any concept of this flawed system, would we not be flourishing in a more optimally designed alternative to our current society? I know we have the capablity to duplicate a mirror image representation of our physical universe within astronomy programs... so why aren't people making plans to create a new perception within this new plane of existence?

We are letting ourselves be held back by our own flawed design. That design is capitalism. The systems that were also tried seemed to integrate already known systems and ideas within their own, dealing with money, such as the USSR attempting to create a communist society. Their failure was due to centralization, intense focus on war, and the concept of money being incorporated into a vast human civilization which enticed greed and competition.
People have let this concept of money rule them for thousands of years. It is system that exists so long as people believe in it. The system rules itself due to direct emotional involvement. It will not die because people are fearful and ignorant to any alternative, and will forever stick to what they know because any alternative they can think of would be too hard to imagine. Taking that leap would be tapping into the unknown. The uknown invites intense fear, and people would usually think of any possible way to escape from getting there, because once we're there, the concept of returning may not be possible. They would cling on to it so tight, that they would use violence, even murdering others who would attempt to lead them into it.

My goal in life is to essentially create a division amongst people, so that one side may continue the way it has been going... into its endless cycle of capitalism, etc. Meanwhile inviting a new civilization to sprout, which has no involvement in monetary civilizations. Where work is purely voluntary, though some work required by people is merely for survival. A civilization where robots are constructed to take care of 50-90 percent of human labor, such as garbage, mail, and transportation. Even to the point where robots repair themselves, and maintenance robots called 'repairbots' can repair themselves and provide the materials required for its function.

We have too many great ideas, but we let other people with purchasing power decide whether it is 'cost effective' to be realized. Our hands are essentially tied. We need to regain control of ourselves through commonality and start a movement that will give some of us the challenge to create our own world.

I have no plans, so tell me what you think.

Sincerely,
-Dan

Lighten up on Plagiarism !

Whats with this idiocy of plagiarism? Hardly anything is original to begin with, if most things are to be taken seriously they usually are improvised copies of what was once heard or seen or read.
If we used all of our time improving existing ideas instead of ridiculing, penalizing or suing those who copied other ideas without the notorious "quote" and footnote, we'd be on a one way track to something more perfect.
Ridding the idea of plagiarism is a fast way to collectively improve on existing methods. Sure its dumb to flat out copy an entire composition, but if there is any effort in enhancing it, then fuck the "quote".

message to Frank.. commune developer

Hey Frank,

I like the idea.

As an anarchist myself, i wouldn't buy land, but just live on land not being used by anyone else. The government isn't doing anything to help the present state of the economy, so they shouldn't have the right to waste public funds trying to arrest people for trying to live outside authoritarian rule. I say its about time people start thinking this way and doing what they will. Ordinary people who have skills they cannot use because wealthy people decide not to let them work, these are the types of people that are very available these days. People everywhere are looking to escape the verge of poverty, having to pay rent when they cannot afford food or utilities. This is a cruel world we live in when rich people decide to cut off able bodied workers, who are or 'were' consumers by the way.

We shouldn't tip our hats to the government, or to businesses (certainly not to the larger corporate ones who started the mess) We should instead launch ourselves into the next millennia by setting an example and being courageous. If a government wants to set up concentration camps (prison) for people who claim private lands.. so be it. They took everything away from the native population in the past, so they're only fooling themselves if they are to criticize a group of people for trying to live.

I do not believe in authority, police, war, or government in any kind. I do not believe in money, oppression, or increasing our problems by flooding buildings with people who commit crimes. Crime itself is a byproduct of capitalism, and laws are boundaries set only because private property exists. We get rid of law, money, and violent groups.. we will have less stress and more time to worry about collecting resources, learning valuable skills, and furthering our development as members of an intelligent human race. Not doing the deed would be betraying ourselves and our future generations the freedoms they will so desperately desire in our future.. which if we do nothing, may be under constant martial law. We shouldn't sit back, and let it happen to us. We should at least set an example, an alternative way of living. We should start this commune and build up a community, whose sole purpose is advancing our existence in the days ahead.

You may not like or appreciate everything i said, but if you did.. i'm willing to work with you. Like minded intelligent people need to rely on each other, and start gathering now... this will give us strength in the days to come.

Letter to Irish Commune project

I am interested in joining a community myself.

My methods are somewhat different. Being an anarchist i wouldn't do well working with the state at any level, and therefore wouldn't need money because it holds no value to me. Whatever earthly possessions I have will be committed towards gathering resources, using my skills to make myself as useful as possible for whichever community I am in.

Being anarchist i'd assume people would come to consensus on what goals to follow, but have very little to do with authoritarian practices, such as laws, courts, and police. It may be suitable for some who wish to learn to protect themselves to do so, but i have no say in the matter because i personally am a pacifist.

As an anarchist, the methods for gathering materials from the economic world would have to do with barter, preferably with other communes. I see no logic in dealing with people who refuse to give up money as their way of life. Money is the glue that binds global oppression and lets people be taken advantage of, and sets a class system for their descendants to live under for generations to come. Someone has to break the mold, and at this point in technological development, I believe some of us have.

I am an electronics engineering technician, and therefore can devise ways to provide electricity, electronic devices, and rudimentary manufacturing for commune intended purposes only. Electricity from photovoltaic cells and/or green algae tanks for replicated biofuel extraction. With that, electronic batteries via electrolysis (hydrogen fuel cells), thus electric cars and every common portable electric appliance possible.
It is extremely important to provide education in order to advance average people with limited skills above and beyond their potential. Our goal should be to make life work better for us in a commune setting, not merely to escape the inadequacy of governmental civilization.

Please let me know what you think of my plans,
Daniel J OConnor

letter to Dr Ward

Hey Dr. Ward,


Its Dunngar from a few weeks ago. Just found your email address amongst my stuff. I got back to Florida a few weeks ago. I have been looking for work, but haven't been very successful at it. The main reason i returned to Florida was because I am completely out of money. That place I was supposed to work at in Jaco didn't exist.. instead it was at Escazu with some guy who was trying to take advantage of people for very little to no money.


Anyway, i was able to check out some other places in Costa Rica, met a lot of people, and even found a potential place to live for very little money *40 dollars/month*, should i choose to return in the near future.


I'll say this as per Costa Rica. The country really does not have itself together, and in fact i think it is breaking down into something nobody wants any part of. Firstly, it is extremely expensive.. the crime rate does not help its appeal. Its refusal to work with individuals seeking to help develop the country is obnoxious to say the least. They would rather have US corporations come in and dump money into the laps of the government and elites, in exchange for low wage workers who spend their day handling customer service calls. It essentially dumbs down the populations' potential in various skills and trades. It is no doubt related to the inability for the infrastructure to catch up with the rest of the world, which includes dirt roads and low speed internet traffic, and limited wireless communications. While the people haven't a clue of what they are capable of, the disparity between rich and poor is absurd, and the country seems to be heading backward rather than forwards, in a variety of ways.


I am not confident in Costa Rica, and I would not live there now that I know what it is about. The kind of person I am would enable me to get the word out to the populace that they should be able to call more shots, and dump the current leadership... but that of course is illegal for a foreigner to do, and people would think I have political interest in the matter.. and i'm not going to let myself be accused of being some kind of propagandist.. so I prefer to keep my mouth shut. Activism only goes so far... of course we all know what happens to people when they really make an impact on peoples lives.. they usually end up dead.


Anyway.. the Panama opportunity you offered... I consider it still on the table, but my current bank balance is just hovering above 100 dollars at this point. I am going to attempt to use whatever means of disposal I have from the computer to make some more money. The real shame for my generation is that people cannot just get a job whenever they'd like one. Even after years of education, *in my case being 5 years of schooling*, you may pay your dues for a few years and you still end up getting disrespected by these corporations in the end. To them you're just a number like everyone else, and getting called amongst a list of numbers for a job interview is like winning the lottery... actually getting the job is like winning it twice. There is no opportunity in America if you do not own land or have connections. Whether it be a time of recession or a time of prosperity, corporations will still own everything, and we are supposed to just accept it and be obedient workers if we want to climb the corporate latter.. forgetting that at any time they could just throw you in the pool of sharks whenever they want to save a little money for their billionare king CEO.
People are getting tired of this cycle, and with nearly 20 percent of the working population out of work, many of them are becoming aware to the truth of how America is run, how it is not dissimilar to the age of feudalism, and how people are stuck within a certain bracket to which they are expected to never jump out of.


Our lives exist to what end? If we are supposed to serve other peoples interest by being a member of society, but society does nothing to make life easier for those without jobs, does not this capitalist system prove to be a failure? If we observe China, we see a workable fascist government where everyone is busy doing something... sometimes with workers living in the factory with bunk beds stacked 3 or 4 beds high, busy providing cheap labor for exports all over the world. They may not be the happiest people, having less money and no freedom, but at least they have something to do with their lives, and have less to worry about. It actually proves that fascist capitalistic societies thrive off of the consumer driven "free economies", essentially bleeding dry the wealth of nations without them realizing it, because of the debt trend Americans let themselves be shuffled into. They sell their lives away without even realizing it, and they are so ignorant that they can not even figure out this healthcare problem. Are peoples minds so incredibly distorted that they do not question authority, and start to take their worst enemies' point of view (people who profit on their misery and insurance funds), before they would come up with a plan that works? Of course, because we only have a two party system which people believe they are apart of and control, only politicians are allowed to draft the course of healthcare, and therefore allow one or more ways to bureaucratically prosper from. Then again, it always comes back to the old question... are ordinary Americans even capable of critical thinking and designing a healthcare system that would be beneficial to all Americans who need treatment and routine check ups. The answer is, people are not informed enough to make these decisions because they do not know the big picture or the complexities behind the system of healthcare, nor will they be given a chance to know. And because of this, it will once again be left up to people who serve their own interest and the corporate interest, before the populations' interest. This is why democracy is a distant memory, if ever we had the knowledge of what it was or from whence it came, it is a word spoken of on a daily basis that has reflect the truth of the system of America.
I sincerely hope people come to this realization and find a better way to live, and start a new. This way of life is clearly not working out for the majority, and there must be a multitude of theoretical systems to choose from that are way better than the current political theory. While I have selected Anarchism as my personal preference, for its simplicity and non-emphasis on law, police, military or government.. its emphasis is however focussed on community structure, family life, education for every age, hard work is rewarded with communal recognition, celebration for new inventions, mutal aid and trade amongst communities near and far, etc.


Anyway, that is what is on my mind so far... and it is my mission in life to be a crusader of change. I have no desire to be militant, because I am opposed to all forms of violence... but I will fight to survive if my life was on the line. We're not at the point of societal destruction just yet, but I sense that the repression of so many for so long... ordinary people who have had so many turn their backs on them.. these people can only be pushed so far until they start an uprising. If that is to happen, the first thing I would do is attempt to relocate temporarily. If I was incapable of doing that, then I would assess the situation and attempt to survive however i could. This breakdown of society may not seem evident at this particular time.. but I believe it is actually inevitable. There are signals that i get from lots of people that something may go down... but it is usually not spoken about regularly.. lots of people hide behind the internet to express their feelings.. this is where I am picking up this rhetoric. Anyway, we shall see. I am interested in what you have to say about this theory of mine.

For Obama

Mr. Obama..

I do like you, despite how much i hate government and authority in general. There is something about your soul that resonates a positive aura persona to me. But I do not believe you can change anything in the path we are going.

With so many people out of work, so many bills are paid via debt. People can't escape it, its a growing problem everywhere. Some people had it made, and some people like myself were born in a hole and had to prove themselves worthy due to the mistakes their parents made.


I come from a household that neglected their children. They used drugs regularly, got into violent scuffles, and were foul in every sense of the word. If it weren't for my grandparents, i may very well have turned out like them. This world we live in disregards people with no value, and tosses them aside without question. We people have been taught to let homeless 'hobos' be cast aside, because they refuse to contribute to society.

Nowadays the tides have shifted. The very act of refusing to give people jobs is to reverse the fortune of the poor, so far that when the rich become upper middle class, they will have more power even though they have less money. People who really try, but haven't credentials or any more hope... they become the homeless of tomorrow. They give up on society, and they are judged by those who have no right to do so.

The time has come for the government to simply let communities build upon themselves without government interference or intervention. Communes is the answer for many of America's urban populace who have skills (or wish to learn them), but have nobody to believe in anymore. The fact that private property, and the law of how land is governed and owned, this should ignored for the times ahead. People should not have to contribute money or resources towards a government that hasn't offered solutions. People should have the right to explore regions whose previous occupants were slaughtered by the American government on the basis of expansionism. America had pushed harder by legitamizing the robbery by offering land grants using the Homestead Act , so that it would add security posts to the regions unused before someone else takes it.

Sir, I do not believe people should have to ask for land grants at this point. At this point, people should remove themselves from the system that has denied them access and resources. We may not have much time left by the way the country is going.

Why am i telling you this? Because I simply have nothing left in my life to shoot for. Every door has been closed on me, I was born in a certain class that is practically a ticket to failure, and when i start to burn that ticket, a new failing ticket is granted to me by societal recession. And because I believe that Mr. Obama knows where I am coming from. If you read Malcolm X's autobio, you'd know that he called for a separation from the American government, a movement that would bring supportive urban youths to another place, and give them access to real freedom.

Freedom is having the right not to ask permission... freedom is the right to live ones life how they wish..

A government official cannot convince someone they are free, because the very act of beating the word into someones head without an explination is the very act of taking away their ability to freely think for themselves. And propaganda goes along with oppression like Coffee and milk.

I have wished for a different way of living all my life, seeing a different picture in my mind of how we are supposed to live. The very way we live is extremely confusing to me, and by not speaking up for myself and others would be a betrayal on my part. I need Mr. Obama to know that I do support him, and i have nothing but love for him and his family, but I have no faith in trying to make a system of failure work better for me. It is like telling a sick man with cancer if he wants some morphine to numb the pain... sure the pain may go away, but the cancer remains. Our goal in life should be to finally break through this capitalist system. Money is the oppressive glue that restrains us from achieving the goals we set. When humanity abandons it, it will take the next step of evolution and be in the path of christhood. A way of living beyond our expectations, graduating to a society where education prospers because its methods capture the interest of the youth. A place where everyone hit the lottery, simply for being born into the generation of a caring system of good values. We will have the best of everything if we abandon our foolish pride and start from the simple to obtain perfect complexity.

I would like you to be apart of it, but I see your life may be in danger from radical extremists who support an old system and are too ignorant to offer solutions. Please be with me on this... I fear for you sir, I want nothing but the best for you.. but the system of America is not a system any rational person can be apart of. Take my advice on this.
