The Royal Oops

Bloggish

Artemis has come up with a method of jamming 35 times more data density into cell phone networks. You can view a video demonstration about is here:

Here’s a couple of possible viewer comments:

  • Wow, that’s amazing.
  • Holy Sh-t, wifi hubs popping up everywhere … densely modulated RF all over all over the place … f**k it, I’m going to the woods

I agree with both sentiments.

Growing up with an over-active imagination fueled by a hefty diet of 1950s black and white scifi films I know what can go wrong when scientists get uber enthusiastic. Continue reading →

Confusion, Kerfuffle, Confabulation oh my.

Bloggish

Below is a response sent today to someone wondering about the mornings ICW talk. I have not included even a summarized portion of the original email. Didn’t seem the way to go. So what you have hear is one side of the conversation. The other side is left to inference.

I hear what you are saying. And, yes, it gets hot on occasion and it gets hard at the bottom of the bowl.

The particular practice that was/is being presented through the Ashram Ground Floor City Planners experiment would not have been facilitated by handing out step by step directions with proper preparation and planning. Continue reading →

Intro to SlimeMold Telepathy Course

Bloggish

Half of the method for telepathy is learning to look in the right place. The other half of the method for telepathy is learning to stop looking in the wrong places.

When listening to your own mind ramble on, the associated thoughts, impressions, pictures, perceptions, and feelings all seem to originate from a place that many of us call “inside my head.” When telepathically in touch with another, his or her thoughts, impressions, pictures, perceptions, and feelings will also seem to originate from that same place — the one called “inside my head.” Why heck darn when you get right down to it every thought, impression, picture, perception, and feeling is rattling around in that place you have come to call “inside my head.” Continue reading →

Lucid Living

Bloggish, Tid-Bits

The phrase “Lucid Living” intentionally draws inference from “Lucid Dreaming.”  The goal of Lucid Dreaming is to awaken in the dream coming into an awareness of self — with operational presence and attention.

Lucid Living has a similar goal: to awaken coming into an awareness of self with operational presence and attention.  Only in Lucid Living one is wakening while in the walking around sleep state rather than the horizontal sawing logs sleeping state.

Your dreaming carries on with or without your awake presence. In the same fashion your life carries on with or without your awake presence. Continue reading →

Virtual Reality Training 2002

Bloggish, Gaming, Prosperity Path
Below is an article from 2002 on the topic of Virtual Reality Training. It was tempting to update the article to reflect current games and even remove the typos. But, I figure any positive gain in grammar would be more than offset by the negative of losing the original flavor of the piece.

So here’s the problem.

When you’re in the unbridled states of the bardos you are free, totally free to be who you are, to run the race guided by nothing more than you in the highest — without change, unedited, you without the plain brown wrapper, nothing more nothing less.

You will move through the bardos unshackled by anything other than your own body of habits. That’s either the good news or the bad news depending upon the work you have or have not done. Continue reading →

PLS App — Dev Goes On

AppDev, PLS, Prosperity Path, Web-Dev

The first functional preview of the Parallel Life Survey is posted. You can find it at the Akashic Library: http://akashiclibrary.com/books/pls1/

It is running. Soon we will have it working better and better.

The next step in the process is to add more chapters. I thought perhaps we could add 7 more chapters bringing us to 10 total. So if you have already sent in 3 chapters, please send in 7 more. And, if you have not sent in any chapters as yet you can still participate by sending in 10 chapters. Continue reading →

Write, Write, Write

Bloggish

Write, Writewright.

If you google the word wright, you will find a variant of the following definition: a worker, especially a constructive worker (used chiefly in combination): as in a wheelwright; a playwright, a barrelwright, a shipwright, etc.

A wheelwright constructs or makes wheels, a playwright makes plays, a barrelwright creates barrels, a shipwright builds ships. I hope you can see the pattern emerging. Continue reading →

Why Zelda is Great — Part III

Quest is Everything, Thirst is Nothing.

Thirst is a hankering or scrambling toward some temporal goal driven by an itch more often than not localized either in the belly or some place just below the belly. Thirst is earmarked by terms such as bigger, better, faster, further, prettier, fancier, etc., etc., etc., — basically different versions of how many, how much? Continue reading →

“Not Handle” to “Handle”

The progression from “Not Handle” to “Handle” is such an important aspect to any game. This teaches the player first that it is possible to make the transition from “Not Handle” to “Handle”. And second it demonstrates the difference in how one can be in a space once one has learned how to “handle” a particular thing. Continue reading →

Why Zelda is Great — Part I

Monday, Jan 3, 2000:

Let’s see if we can figure out part of what makes Zelda great.

Almost without exception everyone who has actually played Zelda agrees that it is a great game. And here we are of course talking about Zelda I. The others may be good, but Zelda I is great.

Let’s see if we can figure out part of what makes Zelda great.

Later let’s consider the elements of a game. For now let’s just take one element and look at it: Story Line. Continue reading →
