Commex
I was in my late teens when the internet started building, coming from an age of cds and physical photographs but what is amazing if you think about it is that if the digital world collapsed in 10 years where most culture is now based (digital non physical music, digital non physical photos, all writing that only exists on the internet etc) we would be reduced back to the late 90s/early 2000s. Anyone looking back at this age would be missing 80%+ of our cultural input, these past 15 years would almost be all but wiped out.
Imagine being a child growing up in 2080 after a digital collapse and trying to piece the history together
Hmmm

(Disclaimer: From my own experiences and no-one elses: as all this blog is)
The adult psychotic split could be explained from the difference of a childs-like acceptance of all things, ie. a child's experience is 'what is' and not 'what is not'.
All things that happen as a child are just accepted into your reality, but when you become more aware and have certain things embedded into your ego consciousness then you have a 'what is' and a 'what is not' reaction to new experiences.
So now I am older, each new experience is in battle with the many previous years' experience, and these can cause disharmony within my brain, there can be a 'free' me which is open to everything and also a 'challenging' me which questions any new experience and views it as a threat.
Therefore, becoming unhinged or scared of a new experience is more likely to have a stronger impact because there are more 'me's' trying to understand it.
What needs to be remembered is that a child's acceptance is one of the most beautiful things we can have and so any troubles amounted from new experiences resulting in a certain kind of psychosis is actually a positive and welcoming thing, even if what it makes us feel is terrified.
A child wouldn't be terrified, it would just see what was. Time and experience gives us a certain view of what should be, and what shouldn't be, and this helps us grow in many ways but then can also harm us from growing in others.

For the first time ever I think that technology has really superseded human thought. Look at the internet.
Really look at it. Pretty much everything that anyone has ever thought or ever wanted to express is on there now, but what do people do? They'll just limit themselves to their own thought patterns, visit whatever 5 sites they deem worthy of their time and not really look beyond that.
This is not a judgement, I do it myself. But wow.
If anything has shown how limited the mind can be and how imagination can be and how narrow minded human beings can be the internet has really put us in our place.
It is surely the biggest anthropologist experiment that has ever happened:
'What human beings are'
We are all simple and incapable of really grasping the enourmousness of the universe. Even within one that we all helped to create we still look towards masters and corporations to tell us what to do with it. It's quite sad. But more than that. If we can really grasp our limitations and see it as a way to grow and a way to expand then it will surely still be a helpful assistant.
The age is still new. We haven't even yet begun to experiment with it and what its capabilities are, we started as naive inventors, growing into mass induced corporations, and now are in the subordinate role of following what we are told.
But underneath all of that there is still a certain kind of thing we may call freedom.
People can still make choices, they can still choose to explore the outer realms of the internet and find great art; film, music, photography, words, that can still inspire us to a new sense of reality.
What the internet has shown is much like the drug/hippydom/lsd age that the 60's gave us.
There are countless possibilities, but how many people really want those possibilities? Mostly none.
Humans are still weak and in need of being taken care of, they still want to be told what to do.
Bur someday there will be a breakthrough of people saying:
'There is no one. There is no one but us. And we write the story. And those who are in power have no imagination. It is up to the rest of us to create a story worth living. We are not living it now'

Just came across this video when looking at Tesla’s numbers (3,6,9)
It’s funny how what they say about the number is similar to what occurred when I came up with it as an alias.
My reasoning was the cyclic essence of the word (this was back in 2005/2006 when I was 23/24):
Thinking:
Nein>No (German translation) >No. (reference to number abbreviation) >Number >Nine
I liked how it fit together, repeating and self contained. It felt satisfying.
Then a year or a few later a friend of mine said ‘you know it’s funny, because by choosing the name Nein you trapped yourself into a cycle of negativity’, and I hadn’t even seen it.
Thinking of that anecdote and how they describe 9 in the video makes even more sense, that it is both the singularity and the vacuum. I’ve always seen the number nine as one step up from 8.
If 8 is the measure of infinity then 9 is the cycle spinning off, an evolution and of growth, consciousness growing
