CHAPTER
01. INTRODUCTION.
This
work represents a breakthrough in the philosophy of science and outlines a new
academic paradigm. It also attempts to deal with the inherited inertia from the
old paradigm distributed as old modelling strategies and identifies theoretical
distortion and causes for refutation amongst more established data models.
This
work will also present a new essentialist model within the philosophy of
science called Trinology and use it to solve paradoxes and make extensive predictions.
It
will also attenuate the despair for our current lack of interstellar capacity and
unity physics with a Scottish sense of humour.
It
will supply the designs for interstellar travel and robotics and provide models
for both human consciousness, machine consciousness and the soul. It will
supply a software with which to address issues within; chemistry, biology,
psychology and technology, and in the macrocosm.
It
will provide a new model for the Cosmos and for social regulation trade and
defence.
Numbers
and Agreements represents an interstellar breakthrough for the Human Race.
20th
Century Brain Death and the rise of the instrumentalist strategies.
Finally, in The Final
Grand Unifying Theory of Relativity, its Everythingness being both Simple and
Easy to understand, we see that Science is a game of two halves. The problem
with that theory of games though was that even if you had all your bets covered
as in arbitrage, you had to knobble the referee as well before you could
collect your hard earned dosh at the Institute soiree.

Instrumentalism: 'the theory that scientific laws
and theories are instruments for predicting observable phenomena, and are
therefore to be judged by their usefulness and not classified as propositions
which can be true or false.'
e.g. the
bi-plane is a useful strategy for flight. It flies and is aerodynamically
sound. The red baron used it - what's with this turbo jet Frank Whittle stuff
anyway.
With the failure of the 20th Century scientific method to deliver scientific unity - the apportioning of blame requires a 'shoogly peg' to hang its troubled white-coat on.
What
better pleasure then, to blame it all on Adam Smith, 1774 CE, of Kirkcaldy,
whose notion of industry getting the most benefit for the least cost was the
cutting edge of the economic revolution.
None
better knew its lifestyle benefits than the pampered apple-pies of the princely
American Philosopher Kings and Queens,
for whom merely feeling elite was sufficient.
With
scientific discovery becoming redundant, a new role for science graduates
started to emerge: that of the 'janitorial technologist' or caretakers of the
paradigm and its doctrine.
Outwith
this comfort zone - things could get pretty bleak for some.
An era of
post-scientific social constructionism utilising instrumentalist technologies
had arrived.
Instrumentalism
e.g. Dulhem P, 1906, 'The aim and structure of physical theory'. had it that if
a bi-plane design worked why change it if it satisfies the criteria for flight
- i.e. why try to develop a jet aircraft.
US
President Dwight Eisenhower, presumably responding to the time travelling
alienz who watched the part a bi-plane cropduster played in the X-files movie, 'Independence
Day' had the following to say about the death of science - in a potentially
dark and alien cul-de-sac.
It was
all so different from those days of 50's B-Movie promise when the German
Scientists came to the High Chapparal to start work on space travel. In his
famous farewell radio and television address to the American people on 17
january 1961, he foresaw the threat to intellectual freedom and scientific
evolution.
'Akin to,
and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military
posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades.
In this
revolution, research has become central; it also becomes more formalized, complex,
and costly.... Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been
overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields.
In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free
ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of
research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract
becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old
blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.
The
prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by Federal employment, project
allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be
regarded.
Yet, in
holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must
also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself
become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.'

From
Plotinus c.250 BCE to Descartes c.1800 CE to Hooper c.2000 CE, the big issues
of philosophy have remained the same. Civilisation on planet Earth was built on
the shoulders of giants, each and every one appearing to recycle the same
problems and, in the case of Hooper, the same solutions.
Although
20th Century Science failed to unify these problems, as did Hooper, it is sad
to say and rather unremarkable that though Hooper in 1903 CE produced a version
of reality more advanced than any particle physics we have in the 21st Century,
the guy is a complete unknown - one big issue that never got sold.
Unfortunately
for Hooper, there was no Windows95 and computer modelling or freely available
global information.
His
physical theory, therefore, failed at the last hurdle namely an absence of
hitek observational tools that would have detected and computed chaos in natural
systems.
For over
100 years, the same problems he had examined in 1903 CE, still make redundant
effective futures for mankind. This problem infected the behaviour of matter
and material objects, it also infected the observations and were incorporated
within the measuring devices and within the scales of measurement and
representation.
This
massive infection wasted rainforests of paper on glossy grants at glossy
institutes, tonnes of ink and tonnes of technology, and produced more hot air
than the vulcanism or sunspot activity that
led to global warming.
This
infection came from somewhere - every day, every moment and no-one knew what it
was because comparing notes between scientific fields would expose levels of
endemic infection and dent professional standing.
As rigorous
reporting, measurements, intellectual honesty and the scientific practise
failed in the 20th Century, the scientific establishment itself became a
living, large-scale example of the very infection it was trying so desperately
to hide.
That
infection was chaos.
The basic
universal transaction model upon which absolutely everything hinges in its
natural state is: some A to some B through a common medium of C with the
intercession of some D.
This
transaction is driven by a natural and universal law of:
High
Energy to Low Energy through some Common medium with the intercession of some
inclusion. In various human semantic idioms this process has been measured and
seen to be relatively law-like. It is broadly speaking, a power law.
In
Chemistry, it is called Fajan's Rules, in Biology, it is called Osmosis, in
Psychology it is called Transference, it is also observed in the dissipation of
sensitivities in neural nets, in gravitational interactions between particles
and planets and between clouds of drifting stars.
The speed
of flow between A and B can be measured because everything material is a flow
of waves that naturally create an energy field by force of motion. This field
can be scientifically measured across every size and scale of turbulence using
a relatively impeded inverse square power law, where, the more the distance
between A and B, the less the strength of the field.
After the
basic transaction model and its relative field effect, there is another factor
within matter totally unaccounted for in establishment Physics and in every
system ever measured and made into Laws - that is 'emergence'.
Emergence
continually makes new particles from an ocean of smaller sub-atomic particles,
or ether, by folding complex mixtures of smaller ethers driven by first cause
emergence.
This
force and its emergence gradient replace the idea of gravity with the idea of
'compaction' - where particles are compressed by external force to resonate
variable 'quantum' shells caused by
transverse waves.
Effectively,
then, a new particle physics and new cosmology are possible with this model
that uses entirely natural and simple physical rules to explain empirically
observed transactions.
In the
words of William of Ockham in 1318 .. 'Entia non sunt multiplicanda' ... or,
'Entities are not to be multiplied beyond what is necessary.' i.e. Keep it simple.'
To that
could also be added the wisdom of Life tutor and personal Life Trainer Baron
Sacha Cohen, Ali G in 2004 CE, 'keep it real.'
This work
solves many problems in; electrical engineering and artificial intelligence,
neuroscience, psychology, social science and nanotechnology, space travel, time
travel, linguistics and semiotics, and provides a working template of state
descriptions upon which to build fresh paradigmatic models. If necessary this
modelling technique can salvage data that has been misused on other
dysfunctional models.
It is
effectively a new semantic framework for a new scientific paradigm. Without
such a rational model, there is only darkness, ignorance and disease and the
creeping failure of reason and the alienation of life from its berth in the
Light.
The
following local ethnological evaluation illustrates a creeping malaise of
laissez faire, and berserk ideologies run amok amongst local science and
silicon industries in 2003 CE in Scottish Urban Hinterland.
It can be
summed up as cultural dissipation e.g. [Durkheim.E, 'anomie' ]
Whereas
Eddison, the inventor got his ideas in a flash on the bus, clearly some people
were not too fussy about the future of mankind
and seemed to be sourcing their enlightenment from 'whatever'
naturalistic pantheon took their fancy.
My personal
life coach and life trainer, Ali G suggested though, that they deserved
'respect' - but the task was 'massiv'.
An
Alienation of Reason :
‘The Emergence of Post-Scientific
Magical Realism in West and South Fife.’
INTRODUCTION.
The onward march of technological and scientific
progress towards the creation of civilised perpetuity in the 21st
Century even with the aid of global industrial complexity and militarism acting
and serving elite ideologies, appears to have been halted by the inward march
of lights inside and outside the mind posing as illumination. This paper is a
study of the failures in the structural proclivities of such elite psychology
with particular reference to empirical evidence in central Scotland.
‘Gnostic Luddism’ – rebirth
bereft of technological process.
Scotland
is a place rich in ancient cultural traditions that are intimately linked to
processes of growth and natural cycles.
There are
many examples of beliefs in and worship of animism to be found as a matter of
course within the immediate rural hinterland of most urban conurbations.
However,
whereas the ancient practises were intimately and evidently related to organic
processes, animism in the 21st century has also progressed to the
worship of the god in the machine.
An
empirical re-evaluation of those ancient spiritual ideals within the context of
21st century technology as practised within Fife today will lead to
the conclusion that the architect of the universe is now thought of as an
architect of civilisation or an architect of desolation.
E.g.
1 Cruicks Quarry and Dalton’s scrap
metal yard set on land assigned by papal Bull to the Jews in the 12th
Century BCE.
E.g.
2 Desolate structure within
institutionalised ritual in the form of solid concrete buildings with mock
windows and doors overseeing a pit with the artefact of a withered tree set in
the rocks. Usually seen to incorporate some broken industrial or domestic
motor-powered unit e.g. Refrigerator, convector heater.
[Specifically; a)
‘mock temple’ iron works Crossford, Dunfermline, internal combustion
engine parts and embedded iron girder sculpture with phallus. b) ‘mock temple’
Exxon oil terminal Aberdour. [ritual, desolate sculpture of electrical
switching system]
Note that
both temples a and b are constructed to identical morphology.
E.g.
3 Thomas Carlyle’s descriptions of the
naturalistic ‘Ragemon and Drudge
concepts of the travelling folk’ [essays on the hero. circa 1876], in contrast
with a people who today also incorporate broken motorised technology into their
animistic signs and presentations. [Specifically; Motorola Dunfermline, and,
abandoned engineering yards at Dollar, Lanarkshire.]
It was
always an ancient Masonic promise that illuminated and advanced Civilisation
would be reborn with the return of a new golden Age.
An
exploration of Masonic ideology [an
interest group] as a primary driving group within society may reveal why our
future lives could now be in peril. Anti-civilised ideologies may have come
about by exposure to some confusing occult or alien state of consciousness.
There is plenty evidence to suggest for instance that the recent art of Wicca
uses plastic tree casings from tree nurseries e.g. of a type at Newton, South
Queensferry to inscribe Ogham spells upon within the Dunfermline area. [Duloch
woods]
Elsewhere,
the traditional corn dolly is now sculpted in blue plastic towrope E.g. Kings
Seat Hill, Dunfermline, at Harvest Moon.
These
various groups seem to have abandoned
an organic aesthetic at some point and appear to contradict the concepts one
would associate with the rebirth of Civilisation. [C.f. working, problem-free
technology and method]
The
programming mechanism for such sabotage, if any, may be identified using the
established ideologies of persuasion; [Pavlov], the Innate Releasing Mechanism, Stress
Releasing Mechanism, Transference,
trauma bonding, within a modern model of Neuro Linguistic Programming
[NLP]. It could be that with some subtle and intrusive psychology and
some emergent and hypnotic and empathic process in play, [E.g. Sheldrake R],
during the guilt and trauma inducing strategies of cult practise, Nihilism may
have invaded the emergent structural processes within the hierarchical
personnel responsible for our social and scientific evolution.
Examples
of paranormal activities in Fife observable with the use of digital technology
and displayed globally on the internet by a loosely knit network of self-styled
enquirers may also carry with it the implications of severe social intrusion.
On a
global basis these lights and or beings are seen to manifest.
One such
contact collective in Kirkcaldy, Fife recently produced an image of a being
appearing to point a weapon. A very similar being in better and higher detailed
lighting was photographed in New Mexico and can also be described as
‘insectoid’ and ‘Mantis’.
With the
onset of digital photography presenting very high resolution capture of
photonic events, such images were abundant all over the internet. Good beings
and bad beings and neutral beings glow in mythology and tradition and 20th
century culture. [‘Grimm’s Teutonic Mythology’, circa 1890, and, Kirk Reverend
R, ‘The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns and Faeries’, 1679 CE.]
In the
ideologies of Social Darwinism, where the strongest and fittest people get to
the top of the social pyramid, the hierarchy of civilising processes take their
direction from a top down cascade of directives, where also some authority is
often delegated or devolved.
If
somehow these processes were being subverted by alien ideation that targeted
and programmed our perceptions using associations that were not overtly
intellectual E.g. associations of; colour, sound or other forms of intellectual
and bio-electrical distortion then perhaps society and its hierarchy could be vulnerable
to alien intrusion.
Certainly
2 or 3 anthropomorphic forms in the 911 impact clouds and of a static
airvehicle retrieved from the internet at ground zero, plus other bona-fide
imagery from global museums and art galleries suggest the possibility of other
intrusive realities that are uniquely alien to the human biological process.
The
implications of a post-technological imperative within the recreation of a new
order, however, contradicts the will to survive and the ontology of evolution
and continuity that is often associated with strong Social leaders.
It is
evident from field research that many of these modern magical practises have a
very strong post-technological profile and that they appear to be endorsed at
high levels within the social structure.
The
classical models of civilisation employed and adopted by the renaissance and
imported into the values and attitudes of social engineering in the 21st
century have at their heart several models and attitudes derived from the
philosophical discourses of Greece and Rome. [E.g. Plato’s Phaedo]
E.g. The
culture of youth and beauty associated with the Bacchanian and Dionysian rites,
elite guiding elders, gregarious group behaviour, naturalistic and animistic
ideologies, grooming, sexual license and substandard access by the proletariat
to the keys to personal education and hence self identity were once part of an
ancient practise of social predation now evident in the cult of sexual liberation and the disassociation of
the nuclear family in the 21st Century.
With the
break-up of social and gender role-models and associated ambitions in the 3rd
millennium and with only computer interfaces for most of the education and
guidance, the socially undereducated Youth will tend to resort to provocative
rhetoric [pseudo-autistic] to gain attention from an increasingly uncaring and
impersonal social system.
Such
doctrines of rhetoric and stoic persistence were also the premises upon which
many of the assumptions to rule would be later based. [E.g. Machiavelli, Plato, Marcus Aurellius]
It may be
then that local youthful aspirations in Fife were ripe for subversion by a new
kind of illuminated mercenary and revolutionary – a fresh and stylish
contemporary idea of International Socialism and class war that may have
sounded better than the usual fare as it made its way through the stark
ideation on the international internet.
Any
post-technological imperative within society’s ruling structures may not be in
the interests of the elites themselves, as a barren social order bereft of the
technological skills necessary to maintain barbarism would have no need of
pontification or discourses. Behind the ‘Masonic’ promise of a classical
rebirth [socially evidential by ‘Moody R’] and new renaissance of a new golden age would be a return to classical
norms of beauty and architectural line populated and driven by beings of
sublime artistic and scientific capacity. E.g. [Gregory A. ‘Eureka, the birth of science’. 2003, and
also, Hagger’s ‘scientific and medical network’ page 1-2 who can conclude that
‘non-logical reality’ is not detached thinking.]
The
failure of science and scientific discovery as Karl Popper had already deduced
could be discovered within the tyrannical self interest of the Platonic crusade
against the emergence of individual originality.
Whereas
the ancient Greek schools contained the precepts of harmony and the laws of
nature, there were no observable scientific systems or processes or
technologies to implement them in the late 20th Century because of
the often irrational inertia of various interest groups.
Plato’s doctrine of Rhetoric and systematic soul
combat as alluded to in Phaedo (Thompson editorial), however, provides in its
elite insularity no social evolution beyond the ‘noble lie’ told to the profane
by the philosopher King’s and Queen’s, for having clearly failed in its elite
duties to itself to provide a better scientific reality in the 20th
Century, had already precluded by other forms of reductionism the scientific
tools required for perpetuity.
E.g. the
continued under funding and decay of UK social infrastructure would lead to the
necessary rebirth of a new era of society, yet the inherent flaws within the
cloning process and particle physics and Genetically Modified Organisms do not
guarantee a safe rebirth of the planet.
Social
cataclysms whether natural or artificial cannot guarantee the survival of
passengers and accessories and in terms of
an unsustainable web of technological destruction, highly specialised
passengers with redundant knowledge flawed by unworkable paradoxes would not
have the skills to be selected-for in a barbaric social structure therefore it
could be fairly suggested that there was something suicidal about elite
behaviour in this context.
Within
the failure of scientific eugenics lies the failure to perceive and account for
and incorporate the emergent properties of chaos within physical processes.
[E.g. WWW. SantaFe. Edu]. I would contend that scientific measurement in all
idioms constrained by reductionism tends to produce a generic paradox E.g.
Turing, Gödel, Particle/wave, Olbers’, and that by excluding the genetic chaos
from a cloning process one could and did predict the frequent cloning deaths
now observable using the same model of unity that could solve the other
paradoxes mentioned above.]
Under
these scientifically un-unified and paradoxical circumstances then, that
successfully suppressed for over 100 years, new thinking through the social
inertia of powerful interest groups, a ‘Masonic Conspiracy’ of a return to a
classical golden age was not only a noble lie for the lower castes in such a
Platonic republic, it was also an ignoble lie for the elite themselves. For
such enthusiasm was clearly not scientifically sustainable.
Ritual sculpture at Kings Seat
Dunfermline takes the form of a
wire frame Tumbleweed containing some
tractor parts and a
broken headlight with a small funnel
for an imaginary fuel tank
that empties out into nowhere.
Within
the ruling cohorts’ Gnostic ideologies
there is strong patronage of necessary death to obtain better and necessary
rebirth, however, the values of structuralism espoused by E.g. the Masonic
order, are not upheld within these new and emergent practises evident within
rural Scotland.
It does
not necessarily follow either that the commercial instincts of biotechnological
industries in their haste to subsume the planetary gene pool would later make
the planet barren with a reduction in biodiversity and an increase in
maladapted species. Every future industry, however, will always require power
and technological vehicles to implement its strategies - and given the evidence
available for the emergence of a post-technological ideology within their own
traditional cadre of employees, it may be that Gnostic Luddism in the 3rd
Millennium would possibly sabotage the future of these industrial assets with a
denigration of ideological priorities within the labour pool. [E.g. Exxon
facility, Aberdour]
The
emergence of an aberrant cult belief system in west Fife seems to run contrary
to the expectations of youth as portrayed by the Celtic Druth or Fool or the
un-illuminated quester. I hypothesise
that it is a belief system operated by both young and old people with wealth,
that espouses control over the effects of the creative processes within;
society, technology and nature, but having
no particular requirement to invent new causes, [E.g. mechanisms or
organisms with which to progressively interact.]
Its use
of shaped bonsai type cultivation of older [10 year +/-] living local
indigenous woods in its play behaviour seems to add realism to its magical realism. Perhaps these
ceremonies seem to endow powers of self-belief that an un-illumined and
disestablished Fool could never attain by way of ‘illuminati’ patronage. Che
Guevara, the local role model for this cult, was always willing to put his body
into the front line of self and world struggle albeit in a violent way to seek
social retribution.
In its
social attributes as ‘middle-class
winebar-gothic’, it seems to have taken a relatively safe and fresh
approach to recruitment to the usual array of socially macabre and
institutionalised myth in desolate and more socially endorsed concepts, within
urban life and culture. This belief
system appears to endorse social
constructionism [agreed means to an agreed end] in its tool making and play
behaviour, and stands opposed to concepts within ‘satanic desolation’. [E.g.
recycling, blood and mud.]
They do
appear as a whole to take the notion of physical and social challenge to
observably extreme levels.
[E.g. rock climbing, mountain biking, dangerous
driving,]
Evidence
on the activities of this 21st century youth subculture
suggests that feats of incredible physical capacity are not only imaginable but
also regularly feasible.
E.g.
several mountain bike runs around the Inverkeithing area in dockland areas now
in disuse, suggest by evidence of recent use that riding a bicycle down a stony
89 degree to the vertical incline of approx 6 metres is more than a usual event.
Although
no local evidence of mountaineering and abseiling skills is evident within the
local community and its social expectations, levels of income, etc, it has, nevertheless been possible for this
group to spray graffiti on areas of a quarry face that would have needed group
co-operation with the use of ropes.
Some road
traffic incidents involving people
within this social group often end up with the vehicles having been bounced off
the ground or kerb at high speed to gain elevation that puts the crashed
vehicle to rest many feet above the ground E.g. in a large tree or on top of
the brickwork of a big roundabout.
In terms
of this youth subculture making progress into society at large, its connections
with the retarded satanic ideas of technological desolation are at this time
insubstantial. However, the group
concepts and identities that make these children a subculture are evident in
lower and upper middle class environments, often with obvious adult patronage
in local woods ring-fenced by million pound properties. [E.g. Dalgety Bay]
One would
presume that membership of this social group in early life would preclude
expectations of treatment by the National Health Service.
e.g. see
'Jackass The Movie', A Cult USA TV and Internet group of people who espouse the
values of destructive stunts with domestic equipment as part of their play
behaviour to get a feel for the extraordinary perspectives needed to bounce a
high speed car, or solo on a precipitous rock face with a spray can.
The group
identity tends to espouse the socially catalytic status of an individualist
attitude, in this case the established and culturally retro but acceptable
subversive E.g. South and meso-American revolutionary Che Guevara [14/06/28 – 09/10/67].
Guevara
was an individual subliminally transformed by magical process into a world
changer, and into this idiom the group incorporates variants on gothic
subculture with the use of black dyes and clothing and darker elements of
contemporary Japanese cartoon artwork [Manga].
Much of
its ‘corporate graffiti artwork’ is spray painted mainly gloss black through
various stencils.
Similar
stencils and art are seen labelling the recycling skip containers supplied by
Fife district council at Dalgety Bay shopping centre. [E.g. clothing skip], and on the Student Clothing skip at
Potterrow in Edinburgh’s Bristo Square.
It would
appear therefore that the Local Government department responsible for the
issuance and labelling of this recycling service has been influenced by the
cult’s socially intelligent aspirations.
In
practise as cult play behaviour however, this artwork contains notions of
artistic and intelligent slavery to some dominant aesthetic.
An
instance of three gloss red stars stacked vertically and bound in red brackets
was found in highly patronised and exclusive woods in the Dalgety bay district.
The South
and Meso-American theme in Fife continues with much of its casual graffiti
which at times is a collage of unbounded but curved lines and offshoots often
clustered and presented incorporating more structural themes such as circles
and triangles.
Much of
this can look like the large cacti of the Mexican and New Mexican deserts and
can also take a science fiction aesthetic as if inspired by some alien gaming
concepts within the computing, gaming or internet community.
Many of
the children espouse black hair and black clothing and tend to be small in
stature and of slim build, the family homes and dress of their elders are
indistinct.
They
appear to practise some kind of arbocultural art in that they appear to
influence and retrain the growth of older living roots and tree stems by
breakage and ties and also by some other means that does not break these thick
10-15 year growths, and seem to incorporate this process into their group
meetings in a locality that they have engineered and furnished for this purpose
often using social debris such as metals and good woods, [as opposed to Satanic
use of wormwoods] but also with the construction of barricades and fences using
piles of recent hedge trimmings and garnered coppice etc.
Many of
the curiously bent tree branches and roots tend to be found severally sharply
cut and truncated by some gardening tool as a hazard to the careless often at
heights that could endanger the head and torso at a badly lit gathering.
Obviously
not satanic in nature by use of living wood and the celebration of the growth
process, their places of gathering may be identified in ways often seen and
previously regarded as Wicca temples.
I.e. some
notion of structure in disarray with struts of wood and etc. on display.
Some
places where this cult gather are marked with a beam of wood approximately
symbolising an angle of about 45 degrees against a tree or other such growth.
No
arithmetic Pythagorean concepts have been as yet identified with this practise.
From the
construction of some of these play areas, it is evident from the landscaping
that adult patronage was involved because of the weights and costs of the
materials and tools used in the construction of these often dangerous bike runs
and meeting places.
Transport
whether hired or not needs either substantial income or access to a credit card
and valid identity checks.
Also, the
social strata of these children and adults suggest large amounts of disposable
income.
Their
tendency to endorse the natural process of growth as well as patronise the
intellectual aspects of youth technology continues with local cultivation of a
fungus, an unusual white basidiomycete, possibly a toadstool, with an elongated
centrally pinched basidium with frayed edges,
on a long stalk, again on abandoned industrial land.
Night-times
in some of these estates and villages where this cult can be observed operating
and or visiting can be unusually quiet.
E.g. large council housing estates that contain accommodation for
upwards of 800+ working class families that are 2/3 bed roomed homes usually occupied by 2 or 3 people, suggest
very little evidence of use or occupation in the dark after 22.00 hrs either
weekdays or weekends.
E.g. out
of a possible 2 or 3 thousand occupants, at least 200 of which could be
children in an age range that would be active either on computer gaming or in
social activity with music, or evening social gatherings either by car or by
bus or by train, there appears to be very little activity by way of switching
on a light bulb in estates that ought to be more socially active.
Working
class social venues tend to be unattended, E.g. bars, chip shops and takeaways
and leases on these premises do tend to change hands frequently or can close
early at nights.
These
asocial and insular attitudes on display by the traditionally impoverished
working class groups at nights indicate that a change in attitude and lifestyle
appears to have come about without the wholesale intrusion of expensive digital
TV into the unemployed casement areas where social redundancy was likely to
produce social problems.
Children
and adults on these estates with little or no disposable income do appear to be
conserving domestic electricity and are mostly inconspicuous in the evenings
before and around the traditional terrestrial TV newscasts between 21.00 and
22.30 hrs
This
concept of the insular urban hinterland in the dark can be observed in many
places throughout Scotland’s central belt. E.g. Falkirk and Stirling
communities.
This
Calvinistic approach to youth entertainment and lifestyle may facilitate the
acceptance of a more intelligent and belligerent social attitude amongst lower
class unemployed youth seeking greater socialisation and a sense of intelligent
identity. Perhaps too, there is some deeper significance to the depressed range
of social activities in evidence that would welcome a new concept in social
revolution in central Scotland.
Where
this cult has been observed operating, however, there is no indication of any
anarchic belligerence towards social and technological evolution. On the
contrary, however, they appear to be using urban wasteland constructively to
incubate new lifestyles and peer groups.
At this
time however, there is no evidence to suggest that these youths, however rich,
in a post-scientific 20th century era could be the way ahead for
Humanity. Given the rather menacing
overtones and context of this youth culture in post-scientific Scotland, it
does seem that the Kurt Russell B-Movie ‘Escape from LA’, the sequel to escape
from New York seems to portray the idiom rather well. In this movie set in post
apocalyptic America, now a hardened dictatorship at war on a fragile planet, a
virtual reality terrorist similar in looks and disposition to the 60’s Che
Guevara revolutionary – claiming to be of the ‘shining path’ captures a key
American political asset in order to extort the operational code for a blanket
electromagnetic pulse that would wipe out all electrical equipment on the
planet.
Also,
although most 20th century graffiti seen in and around Edinburgh and
environs can often take a Sumerian and cabalistic character in the individuals
choice of personal ‘tag’ or gang name, the graffiti espoused by this
post-scientific ‘guevarist’ cult is
more often seen on the internet on websites devoted to the tales and
recollections of alien abductees.
Recent
local Film footage of extraordinary nature which seems to illustrate the
concept of the ancient Hindu ‘Vimanas’, the flying ships and chariots of fire
over Scotland offloading glowing lights along with the high resolution images
taken by locals of glowing lights in Kirkcaldy, plus an enormous publicity
campaign to bring these ideas to scrutiny, illustrate a very strange and highly
suppressed social intrusion.
But then,
seeing Dr Gregory of Cambridge recently extol the virtues of the medical
amenities of King Amyntas of Macedonia, elevating practises conducted in the less than aeseptic
conditions of ancient Greece presumably in possession of; blunt bronze tools,
and a rather disorientating education in the evil dilemmas of mystical soma and
or ‘Pandora’, - to the context of modern healing, reminded me of the film ‘The
Time Bandits’ as well.
