Nothing is in and of itself describable to the fullest extent.&amp;nbsp; Where language fails, where words cease to derive meaning or primacy, we should allow image to take the wheel, and metaphor is itself wholly derived from this pathway and inclusion.&amp;nbsp; Time, it will be proven again and again, is not linear, at least not in the sense that proponents of Freudian or Einsteinian models once quibbled through in their respective fields.&amp;nbsp; Time is in fact simultaneous.&amp;nbsp; The All-Now described by Gnostics as The Pleroma.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If that omnipresent background proves to be folding and collapsible, and human being's relation to mind and light both individually and collectively, then it stands to reason that, as the neural pathways of a single human brain outnumber the collective stellar activities of the known universe, and that which is above is like that which is below, then any seeming action or activity, regardless of moral implications, works according to the omnipresence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To this end, Good and Bad are naturally little more than labels, and the visual systems crowding aesthetic theory are matters of divination best left to the Oracles and arbiters of good taste and sound judgment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In retrospect we view the Ancients as backwards and brutish, lacking our sophistication or technological achievements, see their associations of gods and goddesses to locations and corporeal forms as limiting, and prescribe our own phantasms to the realm of action in such a manner that the invisible world, the molecular and spiritual, goes unrecorded, disregarded, and inconsequential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That "treasure in the realm of shadowy thought" as Kant put it, or " the archetype" as Jung put it, is often a projection we overcompensate for, creating an imbalance in our perceptive capabilities and applying neurosis to the collective rather than the individual, where it originates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And with regards to Esoteric Essay Blogging, the act of E.E.Bs, we so often seek out regions form submissions and end up being dominated.&amp;nbsp; Balance for the Whole is sought and even on rare occasions found. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-5820318978349281159?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/5820318978349281159/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=5820318978349281159' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5820318978349281159'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5820318978349281159'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2011/09/poimandres.html' title='Poimandres'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-4596672063031446556</id><published>2011-08-16T01:03:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-08-16T01:03:41.776-05:00</updated><title type='text'>The Chariots Arrival</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Cognate references refreshed, she looks up over the rim of her eyeglasses, a dim recognition emerging.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A virgin bride.

An equation of the working substance within these words cannot be properly known, that is, it cannot be housed by sane means, couched in linear thinking.The evidence seems pervasive that contemporary experiments with the Word provide a coalescence of identity which is not ordinarily provided in ideal persona models, factory-direct or home-grown.&amp;nbsp; The alliance between so-called conventional wisdom and and sanguine fancies grows dim in the presence of the Word. Linguistic structure as a whole begins to break down on a cosmic level, in a manner of speaking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mimic the dealer and you will never bust; a concurrence of skulls and diamonds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Periodical linguistic consumption and purging fringes our interactions here, as if the process of translation itself was never-ending. The massive lore of the Word's cryptography yawns wide like a black-lit abyss, antiphonal, scarcely pronounceable, hastily scribbled, hurriedly typed, unmistakably unique it its inheritance. The manuscript, as we have already said, is compelling yet absurd.

We create countless but not innumerable variants of this archetype and live them out according to specific parameters. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Designated events in the seemingly chaotic swirl of events motivates us to enter mystical states from time to time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You might say that &lt;i&gt;Yahweh&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Baal &lt;/i&gt;struggle against one another throughout the constructs and constraints of a particular program; every religious structure engages the concept of the divine within the space allotted it in society, whether positive or negative, ruling class or slave, and as such is informed by the space's limits and excesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand that even this text is only acknowledging that the writer is I who speak to you, the one you expected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I see the clock on the mantlepiece. &amp;nbsp;The Universal Tree centered at the core of everything. Acts are, but there is no actor. The furnace of Gehenna and the paradises of Arcadia are alike and apart in their terrible and wonderful beauty Outwith the fourth dimension.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sky is set to the movements of the four elements and light particles distill three wheels to the moon and the sun. &amp;nbsp;A maiden robed in light enters the chamber of the archons. The result is all plant life. &amp;nbsp;Miscarriages from heaven string the land and self-replicate. &amp;nbsp;The result is all animal life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Western alchemists attempted to re-create this scenario for centuries. &amp;nbsp;The result has been billionaire boy's clubs where damaged people come to revel in their own crapulence. &amp;nbsp;Like dark shadows they swallow light and return nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The expression of the undifferentiated symbol, or &lt;i&gt;Logos &lt;/i&gt;is by far best represented in the overall scriptures attributed to Jesus Christ. &amp;nbsp; This was co-opted by the Empire and re-edited for public consumption to assure a more complacent populace as a whole. &amp;nbsp;This has met with periodic resistance amongst those most in need of reassurance. &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Baeline message as processed by Philip K Dick in VALIS: THE EMPIRE NEVER ENDED.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are levels attributed to Gnostic Cosmology that correspond fittingly with Quantum theories. As science and religion both have their own unique relationship with dogma, it arises that one might Quantify God as a Tenth Dimensional entity, comprising the whole of not just this universe but every potential universe that could ever exist or even be imagined, as the Fifth Dimension is easily quantifiable as the imagination, a paradox machine generated by the miracle of life and observational existence. &amp;nbsp;And as such to a Tenth Dimensional entity time is not just simultaneous, but omnipresent. This greatest being destroys senses of hierarchy. &amp;nbsp;The eschatological character of certain entrenched religio-political shadowplays maintaining perpetual war at the cost of light and life gives rise to a culture of fear, which eventually gives rise to an overthrow of said entrenched systems, as crisis after crisis precipitates change overall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-867056638758922038?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/867056638758922038/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=867056638758922038' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/867056638758922038'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/867056638758922038'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2011/05/invocation-twelveleven-of-5d-consulate.html' title='Invocation Twelveleven of the 5D Consulate'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-8416076770902937821</id><published>2011-04-16T15:03:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-04-16T15:03:02.815-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Eucharist Premise (Poetics of Place)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;Jigging in a circle.&lt;br /&gt;Half-dressed and turgid,&lt;br /&gt;narrow shoulders slapped the length,&lt;br /&gt;assessed width, a&lt;br /&gt;baby arm holding&lt;br /&gt;an apple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Growing restless in the sheets,&lt;br /&gt;gesturing with an electronic device,&lt;br /&gt;intruding the dew plum,&lt;br /&gt;She grips on the gravity&lt;br /&gt;slipping as performances&lt;br /&gt;elsewhere and when&lt;br /&gt;peak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Performative verbs&amp;nbsp;

The technological discourse of instant communication has made these transfers between above and below not just possible but an integral part of the everyday.&amp;nbsp; Almost every principal derived from our interaction with sublime material and gross matter is characterized by individual experience, such that even the driest rhetoric, the most stale academic jargon, is coated in a thin veneer of fertile philosophy.&amp;nbsp; The character of these contents is for certain given a presence, then, in our own interpretation of the materials, the filtering borne of a general disquiet inherent to ontological query of any breadth or width, the presence of tradition insisting on a man who dwells inaccessible to the everyday to be flogged by the iniquity of the micromundane and macromonotony to the point that absurd notions of potions designed to destroy crop up, the life/death struggle quivers in anticipation, and spiritual napalm is extracted from what some would refer to as the collective soul of being, others a metaphysical life-essence trap.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-5903805331724246655?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/5903805331724246655/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=5903805331724246655' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5903805331724246655'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5903805331724246655'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2011/01/1112-11111.html' title='11:12 1/12/11'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-2554664410592480679</id><published>2011-01-12T01:42:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2011-09-26T14:20:51.656-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Proust's Questionnaire</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #191919;

Mme. Blav was a medium, and very ugly. Blavatsky did translations for Jacob Bohme's Key (interesting stuff, once when I traced a few of his keys in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;"&gt;&lt;span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"&gt;Illustrator and then tried to load them online, reality broke in a new and interesting way) and provided Eliphas Levi marginalia commentaries... she debunked false mediums and had rampant threesomes with the Fox Sisters. I joke, I kid. Esoterically speaking, one should understand that all these sorts of "special clubs" of "initiation" into "mysteries" were exclusively reserved for the upper to sometimes upper-middle classes and amounted quite often to mere boys clubs (see: Freemasons), but have their roots in Mithras/Orphic Cults. Crowley worked for Hitler, briefly. Wrote disinformation booklets for him, said he was emphasizing on Jew Hate too much. Funny stuff. EVERYTHING influenced Nazi Occultism. Especially Tibetan Buddhism. Hence the flag and tarnishing/tilting the swastika. But hey, I digress. Manly P. Hall keeps popping up.

Destiny is governed by the Kosmos, which is itself beholden to the Outsider, or non-being, standing in Perfection remote from the fullness of creation but completely intrinsic to it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Simply a matter of having form in the desire of movement over stillness, action beyond inaction, pulling away from the lure of Nirvana for the sake of&amp;nbsp;propagating&amp;nbsp;the eternally&amp;nbsp;desolating process of Life and its cold twin Death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Freedom acts as a stimulant for the many classes to war over. The snobbish upper-lower middle class dynamics of previous steam-soaked centuries must be surmounted in order to bring about an egalitarian cure for the disease of government&amp;nbsp;bureaucracy, its countless field agents, secret agents, active agents, inactive agents, moles, honeypots, plants, double agents, triple agents,&amp;nbsp;black ops, etc. The power of the Proletariat is forgotten, long ago sold for cheap thrift sun-dresses and imported apples. &amp;nbsp;Ask a child about Marx today and you'll see the wasted potential of movements for communist sympathy in the&amp;nbsp;raucous&amp;nbsp;American sixties. &amp;nbsp;Everyone has sold out, and they have an expensive heated pool and dressage horses for their nephews and little bratty girl, and so on. &amp;nbsp;Greed perpetuates Greed, sloughs off envy and pride and avarice-tinged fear, jealousy, and so on. &amp;nbsp;As things stand we are all subject to a front row seat for the premiere attraction, the name of a game, which is Distraction. &amp;nbsp;The economy of this worldwide global hellscape is much as the Roman Empire was, centered around symbols of status, self-perpetuating miracles that speak of a great wealth of history but provide very little in the realm of practicality. &amp;nbsp;Time was, working a backhoe had integrity built into it. Now, staring blankly at the screen, you are left with words again, a keyboard laid out in front of you, in your pocket, on your ear, in your eye, in your brain. Get by on your brain. Yeah. Reinforce that anachronistic Cartesian Body/Mind split prevalent in Western norms. Brains in jars? Brains in jars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So we live and have lived as average people (programmed) interacting with video screens, programs, from games like Winky Dink to the portable computer, the birthplace in games, games according to myriad convolutions/revolutions of rules, great and important work, trust&amp;amp;team-building exercises (excluding noobs), the seedbed for data interaction revolution via GNOSIS.&amp;nbsp; The first person perspective of a shooting game versus the side-scrolling overhead of early children-geared greenbacks, the true impact of the immersible environment's perspective has not yet come to full fruition.&amp;nbsp; What started as a solitary enterprise has become most real in the soldiers and controlled environs that provide an unbelievable amount of information while calmly controlling an environment. Information management is the defining characteristic of the twenty first century's dawn.&amp;nbsp; The future is computer systems operated by movement.&amp;nbsp; More and more we see the world as a system of the sublime.&amp;nbsp; We have no easy answers, we have persuasive advertisers trying to develop a better consumer, a bonus point grubbing remote-sensor-covered designer of the spiritual engine. Who can stop this nightmare world from intruding upon the landscape when it is already the color of the grass.&amp;nbsp; The urgent optimism of the interaction, the tight social fabric required for this tottering structure, this great and towering Pylon of our new century,&amp;nbsp;millennium, in this our Year of the Rotting Zombie Jesus.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-7963962100180911303?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/7963962100180911303/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=7963962100180911303' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/7963962100180911303'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/7963962100180911303'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2011/01/inquiring-gaze.html' title='An Inquiring Gaze'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-1191192444364271701</id><published>2011-01-03T13:47:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2011-01-03T13:47:59.343-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Vortex</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Neither entertains the notion that they are ignoramuses in the face of a totality so vast as God. Of course, usually neither realizes that they are both in their own ways programmed by the social norms and conditioning received at whatever institution or group they spent the majority of their lives in (families, homes, churches, synagogues, schools, nightclubs, etc.).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Without humility in approaching this question, one must confront their ignorance with humility, or a snarling beast may emerge without warning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This often leads to an argument or steeping weeping arrogant banter where an enlightening dialogue could have done nicely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When approaching the question of God's existence on my own (I tend to avoid these conversations) I usually arrive, with some hemming and hawing, at the elegant statement that the concept is variable and our words for it extremely limited, but God (that is to say, the perfect and most Alien Being that encapsulates the entirety of existence, not the Demiurge called Yahweh, etc. but more what is described by some as Allah, the Pleroma, Kosmos) is &lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;an absence that indicates a Presence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does that make much sense?&amp;nbsp; A crude metaphor would be a hand in a glove, say.&amp;nbsp; But I digress.&amp;nbsp; Yes, yes I am a Gnostic. We're the rarest of sorts, anachronistic in our approach due to a claim of "direct knowledge of God" that very few touting "faith in God" would care to stomach, hypocrites and cowards that they are, by and large.&amp;nbsp; Religions are spoiled directly after inception due to the fallen nature of matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Matter is fallen, you ask?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, insofar as all living things are beholden to cessation.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Perfection, another unattainable concept, as remote as God, stands at the forefront of our attempts to interact with the everyday.&amp;nbsp; And every day we fail. God is a Thought. If your grasp on reality is such that you tend to require irrefutable proof in every formula, every i dotted, every t crossed, then you could say that no, God does not exist. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is that simple enough? God exists as a concept that drives us through its divinity; perfect, immortal, mysterious and eternal, insofar as we will carry the concept so long as we exist as thinking beings.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-1069804997345282061?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/1069804997345282061/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=1069804997345282061' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/1069804997345282061'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/1069804997345282061'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/12/does-god-exist.html' title='Does God Exist?'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-3061129028476764258</id><published>2010-12-05T10:36:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2011-09-26T14:57:05.938-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Write.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doesn't matter what.

The as yet unknown but innate structures that this language of the end times prepossesses deals with this problem elegantly enough:&amp;nbsp;ambiguity gives way to pun, allegory, and a variety of emotion highly informed by what has been up until now described as ethereal, that is, rather than being a linguistic structure built on the edifice of sensation, it is a superstructure beholden to the interaction of forces. In this sense an oracular or inaugural weight is called upon in the problem of response; stanzas fall flat,&amp;nbsp;haiku seems contrived, and any distinguishing between the Mind or the Hand seems a trivial observation to be shattered with each enunciation.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-7943201214305504265?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/7943201214305504265/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=7943201214305504265' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/7943201214305504265'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/7943201214305504265'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/11/part-4-poetics.html' title='Part 4: Poetics'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-5691337518381529556</id><published>2010-11-11T14:38:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-11-11T14:38:05.713-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Part 3: Essence</title><content type='html'>Where a word meets a boundary, there will the new language find purchase; details summarizing a resonance in second or third or fifth meaning, as the dimensions of time and space and potential arise, so too does the Eschaton Language. &amp;nbsp;The essential function of a mode of communication such as this is to emphasize the deeper structure of meaning in language (or essence) to the degree that so-called "surface chatter" becomes increasingly irrelevant as words take on ever-greater (and ultimately infinite) resonance. &amp;nbsp;As such, any attempt at a lexicon's functional application in this matter abdicates to a continual renunciation of appropriation by standardized systems and culminates in unframed&amp;nbsp;correspondences or, in effect, a seeming silence.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-5691337518381529556?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/5691337518381529556/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=5691337518381529556' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5691337518381529556'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5691337518381529556'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/11/part-3-essence.html' title='Part 3: Essence'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-3441223179196508133</id><published>2010-11-11T14:19:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-11-11T14:19:36.010-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Part 2: Functionality</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"&gt;A unifying reference crossed out, held in check, grounded to the extent that it carries the weight of the dichotomy addressed in any commentary or question, for much as a heart is designed to pump blood so to would this new language communicate aggregates in a series of assertions that address the activity of a subject as well as the ontological weight of an object, the “divine similitude” found lacking since the fall of the Tower of Babel.

style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;There are a great many gates that have sprung up since the onset of the Atomic Age directly due to the testing of atomic weapons, the constant detonation in atmospheres and underground, the outpouring of radiation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;In years to come historians will tell of the marvels and wonders that led into the Silicon Age, then the Holographic Age.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;In all the strife and horror that is inflicted on man and animal and plant and mineral, there is one thing which&amp;nbsp;distinguishes&amp;nbsp;real from unreal, and that is the degree to which it stands by itself, where it can be said to exist with any concrete validity or passing attempt at objectivity. &amp;nbsp;Sychronicity is the idea proposed by Jung to explain what is seen as meaningful coincidence, or more validly, correlations a human mind can draw from any number of events to inculcate a belief in something like fate or significance.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;It has been said numerous times that the individual can be rational, and some hold that the human, by nature of being a "thinking" animal, is inherently a rational one as well. &amp;nbsp;This has been cited as primary to the development of so-called "civilization", humanitarian and technological advances. &amp;nbsp;It simply is not reality. &amp;nbsp;We should bear in mind that the seat of all action for a human animal is in the realm of the emotional. &amp;nbsp;Animals are emotional by nature of living, hence reproductive processes expressed in life forms higher on the evolutionary scale as mating rituals. &amp;nbsp;Proved with numerous tests, the stock market is not beholden to rationality but an emotionally informed attempt at rationality. &amp;nbsp;The ennui and angst that arises when the seat of power in a government is filled by an&amp;nbsp;incompetent&amp;nbsp;fool or&amp;nbsp;nepotistic&amp;nbsp;stooge is carried in the cultural under-consciousness (a specific tangential aggregate of the so-called "collective unconscious") and results in an emotional reaction in all markets. &amp;nbsp;When a culture is bred in these conditions, the Unawake, or mass psychology as a whole, react with fear and greed. &amp;nbsp;Fear is a basic triggering mechanisms by which populaces can be controlled or directed. &amp;nbsp;Greed arises from a spoiling of masses by individual cells. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

type='text'>Reappraisals</title><content type='html'>I have undertaken and am seeking to publish a series of memoirs which are interlaced with pure fiction and what can only be described as a peculiar adaptation of reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question of course being what is reality, what constitutes unreality.&amp;nbsp; Fiction given the non-fictional bent, aligned with certain occult properties which carry a peculiar stigma in esoteric traditions but are rarely expressed in exoteric or mainstream spheres. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am looking for something concrete to interlace with the fluff and nonsense which permeates most of my appropriated cannon-fodder prose, avoiding airport novels and their focus on thrillers or sales-driven narratives, such as this digressive distraction of a web-based log, removed from my core occurrence and event of 'being' by at least one if not three intervals. This is my thrice-removed context for confession, my machination of externalizing the excess materials I am forced to deal with. This mind. These thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As artists draw from live models to better hone their ability to draw, so too do I use my own life to draw from in order to better hone my ability to write. Real life as a model, the shifting chaos which writing imposes a particular order upon, is a matter of capturing and imprisoning moments into text, honing the methodology and practice to the point where flaws are at least less apparent, and eventually (after some revision) completely invisible, while nonetheless present. I'll always know they are there. Doesn't mean you have to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Analysis of structure is a method which many rely on for their revisions, however I feel my means to the end and ends themselves can best be served by sectioning my method into 'work-zones' clearly defined as utter chaos, controlled chaos, and chaotic order. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You could say that utter chaos is as a mental diarrhea, sputtering chunks and liquid soft segments which spew violently from the bowels of my muse as if inundated with some e. coli laden chili dog of inspiration. In this mess we find a series of unintentional repetition and unidentifiable sources, a sort of soupy mixture which is unfettered by the second guesses of the conscious mind, a graphic broth containing, among other things, the many sources of my material, including but not limited to statements and events within the context of "everyday life", prose and poetry which I intake, television and radio which I see or listen to, and art which I digest through the eyes or ears.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Controlled chaos comes when I am in the midst of the day, somewhere peaceful, with a real and honest idea which has been brewing in the back of my head, or sifted out of the utter chaos shitpile, and there are clips and phrases, usually lines of prose or statements directly taken from memory or manipulated from another context, and I jot them down somewhere like a yellow legal pad, or a notebook. The controlled chaos cannot be typed, for all too often when I attempt to enter controlled chaos into typed text it instead degenerates into utter chaos, and suddenly the few lines I intended have evolved into a messy convoluted series of paragraphs, for the most part illegible or obscene, or at the very least ill-conceived.&lt;br /&gt;Chaotic order is the place which is arrived at shortly before revision, which is a stage that evolves the work into something worthwhile, after appropriate review and feedback from whatever source I am currently subscribing to as valid. Chaotic order may be shifted slightly, but remains itself at the core, as by the time I have arrived at this stage a theme has been established, characters have introduced themselves to me, and the plot has fought it's way out of the birth canal, mewling pitifully. These are all things which are arrived at in a less than intentional manner, sometimes fed by the roar of the utter chaos, and sometimes conceived in the heat of passion by the controlled chaos. Like a symphony with no liner notes, you might say. Clips and phrases from my hand-written word metastasize in the body of the text like a fast-acting small-cell cancer. They destroy the chaos an impose an order onto the work which kills some parts, yet heightens the experience for the reader, since that is ultimately my highest priority.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See, though writing feeds a need within me, and without it I would in fact wither like a raisin in the sun or whatever, dream deferred and soforth, the audience is crucial, for without them, I would never make a living off of doing what I want with my life, which believe it or not is my goal, all lofty ideals concerning art and all that notwithstanding. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ideals without profit as a goal don't feed you or get you royalty checks. Ideals without profit as a goal get you hungry or poor or dead. Mind you, profit is not the only goal, it can't be unless you want to become a metahack or a flake, but it must be kept towards the front of the mind at all time to remind you of the audience you are feeding your shitstorms to, applied to whatever you in whatever manner is plausible as many times as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here, in my utter chaos and squalor, this hobbled hovel, I am seated calmly in my confessional booth with the computer monitor as the privacy screen between me and that old priest who is an obvious metaphor for whoever just read those words I just wrote, who could say something in response but usually just listens quietly as I spew my list of sins in an infinitely digressive quality which comes out in great quantities, my overflowing poetic purse of verse and prose-prone mishaps scraping along the pathways of excess in these vast palaces of wisdom, where everything said is scooped up like horse manure and processed, then used to fertilize those gardens tended to by the well-intentioned angels of my higher functions, the flowers and trees blooming in the sunshine proliferating at an exponential rate of growth, sometimes getting pruned, sometimes getting pulled (if their root systems become a hazard to the prettier plants), and sometimes getting plucked and placed on my dinner table in a vase, to make this place look and smell pretty when I have polite company over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That might be the longest sentence I have ever written.

That was my science fiction meal when I was growing up. I remember the unsettling feeling that came over me with some of his stories. I remember him like I remember Kafka and Tolkien and Salinger. I remember it like a dream. &amp;nbsp;Bradbury has a degree of Borges to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What do you mean by that?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well honestly with Borges it's more like a gallery of landscapes and portraits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;I agree. The store is haunted, I hear.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What? &amp;nbsp;What's that got to do with anything?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Just thought I'd mention. &amp;nbsp;And its your fault.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A stranger phantomperson called one day, another time doors were opened and items fell, doors open and stick shut of their own accord. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A man with a briefcase has a vial of holy water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The demons dealt with are often issues of the&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;s&gt;Qliphoth&lt;/s&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(or flip side of the Kabbalah).These will drive most sensitives insane. Oddly drinking helps, but only red wine, and nothing too strong, moderation in all things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was a time when a Catholic priest with only a flask of whiskey and a Bible made from old German leather could exorcise a rash of demons. A yogi could&amp;nbsp;achieve&amp;nbsp;much the same as a monk or some being possessing mentation as an exercise in a reverse ritual throughout active action or moreover inaction.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-1173496457104290382?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/1173496457104290382/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=1173496457104290382' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/1173496457104290382'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/1173496457104290382'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/10/further-excerpts-from-interview-with.html' title='Excerpts'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-8335639921035750544</id><published>2010-10-07T00:34:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-10-07T00:34:39.155-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Unmarked Helicopter</title><content type='html'>It flies along the edges of the neighborhood, circles back overhead, heard as an incessant chatter coming closer and closer. The park closes at eleven p.m. and the helicopter circles back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An old man finds a girl doing her mantra by the river. He warns her that she shouldn't be out here alone, points to a girl's dress in the leaves by the water, tells her she reminds him of his daughter, tells her English is new to him, that he's here from Greece to visit his daughter, but she will not see him. He was in a horrible accident, he tells the girl, and he still has glass in his skull. He offers her water from his sack, he's coming back home from the grocery store. The river over the spring had been home to Canadian geese that raised their babies quickly and moved on before the cold creep of autumn arrived. &amp;nbsp;Too cold these days to expect many birds. The old man tells the girl that the most fundamental forces of the universe are dark matter and dark energy, and those equated warm and cold. He tells her the forces of warm and cold make the battle of matter she and he see as seasons. He offers to walk her home.

Wells and Robert Heinlein really paved the way for a lot of the technological advances we enjoy today.&amp;nbsp; And at the same time I think it's very telling in a book of science fiction, or any book set in the near or far future, or any fable, for that matter, of the time in which it was written.&amp;nbsp; Guys like Phillip K. Dick were pretty good at capturing that, sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;KN:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; What do you think about the Kindle and e-book craze and its concurrent backlash? &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's foreign to me because I can't afford to buy one.&amp;nbsp; It's like the early days of telephones or phonographs, there are resistances that people have, naturally, and it's a luxury only the upper or middle class can afford.&amp;nbsp; I think as it becomes more pervasive and affordable we'll see the real repercussions of it, the expectations consumers develop.&amp;nbsp; Nobody should say that print is dead, it's far too early to say that. I feel like the appeal of a book, something you can hold in your hands, something you can smell, something precious about that is irreplaceable, and anybody saying that a piece of plastic and silicon can replace that doesn't really understand the joys of reading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;KN:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; What is your writing process like? Do you have a formula or a system?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;LW:&lt;/i&gt; I guess I sit with my stories for a long time, which is part of the reason it took me so long to finish &lt;i&gt;This is a World&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Started as a set of short stories, then grew up into a novel.&amp;nbsp; I write down my dreams, call up flashes of inspiration in old notes from things I read and then expand on them.&amp;nbsp; There's no set schedule, a time of day that I prefer to work.&amp;nbsp; I'd prefer to remain organic in how my writing develops, no matter what it is.&amp;nbsp; I collect snippets of conversation I hear on the train, conversations I have with my friends.&amp;nbsp; I put things in context with an overarching plot that reveals itself to me as I cut up and rearrange the story as it demands.&amp;nbsp; I think every story, every fiction, demands a kernel of truth in it, or it will fall flat.&amp;nbsp; I prefer a cup of coffee or tea when I write, or cigarettes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;KN:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; Where do you start when you start writing?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;LW:&lt;/i&gt; It depends on what I am writing.&amp;nbsp; If I'm trying to develop an essay, say, I need a structural basis, a skeletal framework that fleshes out with multiple revisions.&amp;nbsp; If I'm writing a blog entry I have the weight of an anonymous and mostly silent mass of readers weighing on me, so I usually approach that in a stream of consciousness or digressive manner, which shows up sometimes as pretentious trash.&amp;nbsp; When writing a short story or a novel I start with one scene or a collection of scenes and then branch out forward or backward from that scene as the story demands.&amp;nbsp; A writer's conversation with his or her work is essential, I feel.&amp;nbsp; For anything involving fictional characters as the focus I try to map out their arc, in general terms, beforehand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;KN:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; What writers inspire you?&amp;nbsp; What are you reading right now? Excited for anything that's coming out on the market?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;LW:&lt;/i&gt; For me, Vonnegut's easy to fall back on.&amp;nbsp; Hunter S. Thompson was my hero growing up.&amp;nbsp; I've always had an affection for Italo Calvino and Grant Morrison.&amp;nbsp; I feel like certain comic book writers are fantastic, more literary in their approach, while others seem tied down in the trenchant divisions of the marketplace, genre work, which is fine, they often have families to feed and if a certain trope is the tried-and-true way to feed them, to satisfy editors and readers, I say go for it.&amp;nbsp; I discovered Roberto Bolaño not that long ago, a master of his craft.&amp;nbsp; Currently, I'm reading through the &lt;i&gt;Hermetica &lt;/i&gt;for the first time, a work attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, the patron of alchemists.&amp;nbsp; I'm also rereading the &lt;i&gt;Gnostic Bible&lt;/i&gt;, which inspires me quite a bit actually.&amp;nbsp; I don't know though, I don't keep up with current popular authors quite as much as a lot of writers I've met, so anything coming out this year or next is usually lost on me. I take things as they come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;KN:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt; What is it about disjointed narrative that’s alluring?&amp;nbsp; Did you intend the novel you wrote to confuse the reader?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;LW:&lt;/i&gt; When reading James Joyce's &lt;i&gt;Ulysses&lt;/i&gt; I found a weird comfort in not knowing precisely what every inside joke or allusion or conversation meant, or even what character was saying what, what was happening, necessarily.&amp;nbsp; I feel the same way about David Lynch films.&amp;nbsp; I think that if the quality of the material can carry the weight for the reader, they can inhabit it, like an underwater cave, watching a storm from below, say, so that no matter how convoluted or obfuscated the story is, they are with it, running alongside it.&amp;nbsp; There's something about a straight linear progression in storytelling that seems contrived to me at times, unless it's elegant somehow, or clever, or has a funny formula.&amp;nbsp; I'm not writing to confuse the reader, though that may be a side effect of my approach to writing.&amp;nbsp; I'm not Dan Brown or Steven King. Or even Johnathan Franzen, for that matter. I'm not a writer that wants to be immediately accessible to every reader that picks my work up at an airport or a garage sale. I'm not interested in coddling a reader, neccesarily, you know?&amp;nbsp; I'm more interested in shaking the reader loose of their expectations of what a standard story might be, giving them something to return to again.&amp;nbsp;

Innovation is dangerous in an environment where the tried-and-true has proven so profitable for the Unimaginative Elite.&amp;nbsp; I for one believe that moving into new areas where content supersedes limited technical dynamics is the hallmark of a healthy and mature industry.&amp;nbsp; The novel and&amp;nbsp; more recently the graphic novel have proven this time and again, as forms defying easy definition have emerged alongside genre-intensive material, works that challenge convention and thwart superficial expectations.&amp;nbsp; I believe that such works trigger a sort of imaginative expansion in the consumer of said works, facilitating more such materials, new and exciting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human capacity for game-play distinguishes our species in its variety and complexity.&amp;nbsp; I believe it is in our interest as such a creative species to cultivate an environment where our minds can run free, to heighten our discourse, bring a stronger inquisitive collective to bear on conventional wisdom, erring on the side of caution and too often pandering to the lowest common denomenator.&amp;nbsp; It has been proven time and again that innovative technology and thought in general demands room for expansion and punishes trite stagnation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are at the cusp of an age inconceivable even fifty years ago, let along five hundred.&amp;nbsp; Our mythologies stream live into personal devices of intrusion, designed at once to entertain and inform us as to the potential of the world.&amp;nbsp; The world wants desperately to be interacted with, not feared.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've said it before and will say it again.&amp;nbsp; The future is now.&amp;nbsp; Today is tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Lane Williams&lt;br /&gt;Alien Sawmill Unlimited&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:acknowledgeandproceed@gmail.com"&gt;acknowledgeandproceed@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;August 28, 2010&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Written in a minimum wage life-trap.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Seeking a revolution of Higher Expectations.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-1156377591364048283?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/1156377591364048283/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=1156377591364048283' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/1156377591364048283'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/1156377591364048283'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/08/towards-new-potential-in-medium.html' title='Towards a New Potential in Medium Dynamics'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-8454640534796429082</id><published>2010-04-21T12:14:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-04-21T12:18:03.897-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Series</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/S88zMCR9ZPI/AAAAAAAAAZU/S-vFrU9VUoY/s1600/tree.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

I am convinced you understand on the 'true' level that these words carry an encoded series of liminal and subliminal transmissions you may or may not have been originally receptive to.  Due to prolonged exposure to the antigens mentioned some five years hence, you're more likely to comprehend on that self-same 'true' level the severity of these issues, the meaning of my text mesh.  It is the word, the spoken word same as the written or the read or the heard. The tone, the sound, the language without proper form, the glossolalia before such structures, semiotics with no sense, breaking the ingrained horror that is brought about by even the mere concept of Absolute Order, as if such were anything less than folly, or anything more than a pipe dream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bring me the ring.

I looked it up and directed her to Sociology, showed her Labor History, and then waved in the direction of Cultural Studies.  I could have told her the whole shebang in one quote, it's something Studs Terkel once said, something to the effect that similar to absolute power corrupting absolutely, absolute powerlessness corrupts just as well.  I find it unlikely that this woman has ever known more than a single day outside the sheltered egocentric little box her parents built for her out of the restraints they inherited from their parents.  She's Old Money.  She needs a book written by another well-manicured rich woman, just like her except with a doctorate, to understand the poor and impoverished.  She's trying to understand, this idle rich plasticized old woman, but more importantly she seems to &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;want&lt;/span&gt; to understand. What she's attempting to wrap her head around are Heavy concepts such as Going Hungry and Living Paycheck to Paycheck. Until she heard about this Recession, she'd been unfamiliar with the choice between feeding your child or feeding yourself, something I can distinctly recall my own mother going through.  She's never been to a used bookstore before, either, bearing a strange smile, seeing everything anew, conversing with the  unnaturally tight-faced woman she arrived with.  These people inhabit every corner of America's Long Dark Night of the Soul phase, these mildly opinionated rosy-cheeked consumers with little fire left after raising a household of children or running a household of servants.  They concern themselves with the price of tea in China as well as seeking medical breakthroughs that increase life-expectancy at the expense of life-quality. They would  prefer feel-good movies that reinforce their belief system while attempting to maintain a icy-cold lunatic grip on what may be viewed by some as the mutated bastard child of the American Dream, the remnants of what was before the Revolution of Lowered Expectations, a promise thirteen generations removed and sold to an ever-eager populace again and again.  These people wear pastel to their sports arenas and, like fickle flies, seek fresher fare in the pasture at the first sign of a stale taste.  I'd insert a final witty quip concerning my own insight, but the act of writing even this minor shred of my thoughts on the matter has been exhausting, and customers keep asking for books.  Books on Dutch football.  Oriental medicine. Beckett and Steiner and Martin Luther.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-4505354641102714227?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/4505354641102714227/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=4505354641102714227' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/4505354641102714227'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/4505354641102714227'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/01/at-bookstore.html' title='At the Bookstore'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-5982771779994485258</id><published>2010-01-26T17:38:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-26T17:39:15.123-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Winter</title><content type='html'>Most facilities fail when presented with THE PLEROMA.

Was Scott Brown attempting to pimp out his daughters at his victory speech?  Am I to believe that this &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtycdRBAbXk"&gt;awkward television conspiracy&lt;/a&gt; is that transparent?  I mean sure, you can say "just kidding", but &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Lies-Lying-Liars-Tell-Them/dp/0525947647"&gt;"kidding on the squared"&lt;/a&gt; is something another senator comedian tried to coin a while back, but regarding political language these days, its so commonplace nobody notices.  I love Jon Stewart's spirit here. He enjoys the doing the "whetahded accent", you can tell.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;Anyway. The&lt;a href="http://www.hulu.com/watch/122028/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart-jim-wallis"&gt; interview with Jim Wallis&lt;/a&gt; is enjoyable.  "Old boy" has a soul and we've seen enough politicians on this show without souls that it's refreshing.  The Left needs more smart and devout people like this fellow to counter the shrill keening of the Right.  Not that either is "in the right" as both are invested in hypocritical questionable interests by their very nature, i.e. politics in America, but at least the Democrats don't seem hell-bent on immanetizing the eschaton.  Still, Wallis puts into some perspective the insecurity all this unchecked fear and greed has thus far generated, repeating instead of repairing the wounds inflicted by poor judgment. Like a snake devouring its own tail, this messy beast may yet prove to be its own solution.   &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;Let's see. &lt;a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/19-24.htm"&gt;"Trick"&lt;/a&gt; the rich into providing moral high ground for once by letting them know how wonderfully they will be treated if they invest in the community that hasn't been given any choice but to invest so much in them.  The refractory nature of doublespeak indicates that the most logical solution is a tremendous tax credit for massive investments into genuine philanthropic enterprises.  Let them know they may pay in very small ways once their pay and practice are brought into greater scrutiny by scrupulous people perhaps damaged by the very callousness that allowed the rich to become rich or, if having inherited their fortunes, they may yet retreat into "stupidity".  Maybe what happens is, there's an attempt to make altruism the norm and promote the "green" mindset as more profitable on the whole.  Yeah, basically it's providing them with an equivalent to that &lt;a href="http://www.obesitypanacea.com/2009/10/shake-weight-for-men-move-over.html"&gt;device &lt;/a&gt;they spliced into Fox's victory footage for this episode.  They can go at that thing all day and feel great about themselves.  "Feed them cake" until their sluggish diabetic arms are too heavy to lift anymore.  Make them so famous they can't stand it anymore. Publish their home phone numbers.  Set these billionaires and bankers up with free trips to Bikini Atoll and make what happens next into a Reality T.V. show akin (on some visceral level) to the movie "Battle Royale".  How many billionaires eating cockroaches do you think it would take to increase the ratings on NBC?  What if a rogue secret agent took a tip from the Russians and started discreetly slipping radioactive particles into their food?  Just to even things up on the inside.  Or we can establish a moral update for them some other way?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"&gt;Anyway. Television.  No hostilities intended.  As a consumer, my only voice is the internet and my spending.  No blame, really. The Daily Show has this effect on me, and I'm with Coco, whatever that ultimately means.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-5765557457604550284?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/5765557457604550284/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=5765557457604550284' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5765557457604550284'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5765557457604550284'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/01/noting.html' title='Noting'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-7339005496687779966</id><published>2010-01-14T17:02:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-14T17:03:49.305-06:00</updated><title type='text'>No Way</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/skCV2L0c6K0&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/skCV2L0c6K0&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-7339005496687779966?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/7339005496687779966/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=7339005496687779966' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/7339005496687779966'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/7339005496687779966'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2010/01/no-way.html' title='No Way'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-1871426007154077413</id><published>2009-12-01T16:12:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-30T16:39:17.631-06:00</updated><title type='text'>CAT'S HEAD MAGIC</title><content type='html'>*  time inflicts people with status, listening closely there's something found in reading updates found in reading books with faces looking back, what's the comic correlative getting turned into a song yeah I mean that movie, remember? Where they speak as they please and the minutes run by and suddenly it's winter?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   * It's strange.  This girl by the post office makes recovering seem easy, like a koala fighting a panda, inflicting koala chlamydia on them, and then never calling again.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   * Are you ready? We've been up all night talking and watching the experiment of the Mothers McFarLane, old media moguls set up as comic book writers first, collaborated in hand published cramps from years back, technical school snobs, their material reprinted and in apocryphal miracle format these days, digital everything being the watchword of these benevolent Archons. . . and those cold stores of magic the Mother's terms came from was a long-lost set of stone tablets depicting little more than humans giving thanks for their birth, which was, by most accounts (at least amongst humans), a miracle of sorts.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;   * Birthday Tower is awesome.  I'm not using that in the new American Dumbass sense, but more in the William Blake sense.  I've got a motherfucking Jones on for some Birthday Tower.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   * Did I mention that all stars are cats?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   * There was this fellow I knew with fire.

Corn sinking in a glass of water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   * You should rest, you've been sick, staying up all night watching George Powell's memeplex company while the resurrection ritual was completed. When it finally moved you got out of the way.  Why? Well, it actually danced at you. Took a lot of furniture out in the ruckus what ensued. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   * Obama must get frustrated that even this blog's spell checker doesn't recognize his name yet.  I wonder if the blog's plural possessive form will be included soon.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;* According to wild late falls, moving through the quantum format should be okay so long as we are finished

/&gt;The art of happiness is listening at the window to passing conversations for snippets of interest, for tales of the long-gone in miniature, excerpts from antique books, lines from first editions, statements dusted off and re-examined with the wealth of information at hand, synthesizing new attitudes and approaches. New Beginnings.  Despite the drive for stasis and homogeneity, the human imagination, thoroughly repressed on a collective scale as it is, can still be said to hold the keys to our salvation.  Potential. Human primates build and escape traps all the time, both on an immediate and metaphysical scale.  Here, a digital fly in amber.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\The irrational character insists on designation and reference within these utterances.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Characters can be portraits of human primates, or components of their sentence structures, the words they use, projected onto a page or a screen (like this).  A proper noun approach to the colossal figure imposing itself on the skyline. We used to call them Gods. Now we have the Box, not even the Box but the Rectangle, glowing and Present. Trickster.  Eyes like a Fox.  Blank face.  No eyebrows, no facial structure to speak of.  A co-opted commodity viewpoint on the issue.   Parallel to the inverse processing mechanism of symbolizing a figure so grand and elaborate in its structure it has next to no reference point for any particular character's part in its immense (and all-pervading) pageantry, it stands to reason that the universe is itself a linguistic construct observing the same tropic relations presented to the knit-speaker. The context points to the content. The pseudo-zoological value of this night-sky dome reconciliation is useful when considering the sky-boat of ages long past, carrying deific detritus across sky-rivers Socrates muttered over before the poison completely set in.  These statements have the structural scenario equivalence of infinity's lapdog and/or live/dead cat replicated within and without ad infinitum for amusement and/or amorous intent.&lt;br /&gt;\&lt;br /&gt;2:0:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;High schools resemble prisons more and more.  Children must be caught and taught.  This is a world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.0:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When your thought patterns are commodities, when the words you speak are thrown into this aethernet and frozen like a fly in amber then repackaged endlessly, when information is a commodity it is not free, when every movement within a space is approaching a scam it's... well it's like the man said, the medium is the message, and the message currently is split between downgrade &amp; degrade or uplift &amp; save.  One side calls this tax and spend and the other side calls it saving lives.  One side calls it saving jobs, and the other side calls it saving the environment.  We live in a society of insults, not compliments.  Globalized name-calling rattles sabers daily, as a side-effect.  He told me he asked him if he was happy that his country was no longer at war.

In the preface to the second edition he describes the steady decline of that organization from "state approved" to "authorized", invoking the flaky nature of the west coast's plethora of fringe think-tanks and high-brow menageries.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This book, once described to me as "a self-help book", details certain&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt; exercizes &lt;/span&gt; for mind-circuit tinkering.  In short, the book is little more than an appraisal of the optimistic mystic's slow-glow approach to the hardware and software of the mind- Wilson adopts and adapts Leary's shorthand throughout the book, and it's clear Crowley's sense of humor got to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Items of import:&lt;br /&gt;oral bio-survival circuit, anal-emotional territorial circuit, the two circuit dialectic, the time-binding semantic circuit, the time-binding dialectic, "moral" socio-sexual circuit, holistic neurosomatic circuit, collective neurogenetic circuit, the metaprogramming circuit, and the non-local quantum circuit.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-5670663050931794640?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/5670663050931794640/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=5670663050931794640' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5670663050931794640'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/5670663050931794640'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2009/10/circuits.html' title='circuits'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-4945711695444079240</id><published>2009-10-06T17:58:00.005-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-09T14:44:45.715-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>The Aspect available becomes far more complex the closer we look into it.  &lt;br /&gt;Of course, "the Abyss gazes also".  &lt;br /&gt;Neurosomatic circuity has been accessed as a "temporary fix" in most instances until pranayama yogic techniques could be made available, properly and fixedly, by an appropriate agent.  Note that ego-socialized medicinal units were procured not by the venerated Doctor Zeitgeist but by his numerous benefactors and placebo acquaintances. &lt;br /&gt;Illegalities of by-proxy moxy notwithstanding, our Hero is still relatively untainted by the indoctrination of certain aspects of his nearest and dearest Lifestyle Junkies.  &lt;br /&gt;The necessity of being united is such that the only action one can ever take is awakening. The most urgent and persistent difficulty being a breaking down of formative and associative thinking, or as Ouspensky might have put it,&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt; "knowing what you cannot know"&lt;/span&gt;.   This is not to say that you may take such an action, but rather that the construct you have instituted as you, mostly imaginary, that functions in a swarm of motes, might partake of such conjecture from time to time for little more than the sake of doing so.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Could be that our rose-colored nature of these clockwork-like incidents stuns you with a specific cookie- a minute and a half in front of six o clock- bits of clips and phrases repeated at particular intervals over the course of months and years, oatmeal and M&amp;M's and chocolate chips and peanuts, scenes blending seamlessly and silently into that which is not seen is not heard - swirling around the Egyptian form of Harpocrates, personified in vaudeville &amp; Marxist* brotherhood as a silent curly-haired early-day Discordian with an instrument fetish - emerging out of a vat of strangely brewed images; certain controversial ominous scenes were depicted to mimic the typographic constructions found within the Font of The Book, that ineffable blank eternal concerning the Unwritten Magnum Opus, disregarding all but the line underneath the text, formulated in the right hemisphere and justified in the left. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Diviners root these instances out with games of chance and changes, the throwing of the bones, the shuffling and turning of a series of cards, counting out yarrow sticks, or any number of countless variations, active as visual confirmations of a crushed trouble with or elated arrival at destiny's fulcrum, small comfort or confirmation in The Age of Comforting Fear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sick of some things. Same-old same-old. Pretentious fucks with trust funds and the means to an End but nothing important to say.  Skateboarders and hipsters.  Beards and their discontents.  Ignoramuses using black solipsism and acerbic divisions as a crutch. Ravers and hippies. Opportunistic materialistic whore-mongers. It stands to reason that in such an environment, emotional and institutional affairs are going at an average rate of a dime for every dozen. A quick letter to the B.B.B. would be appropriate to alleviate most major managerial difficulties, all but for the consequential fallout of negativity and confusion inevitable in such an action, anonymously-placed or not. We'll always work this one out. Always.  This one thought is simply the result of a functional reappraisal of whimsical impromptu holidays and their products and their services.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here: Delicate sweet torpor in the fall, turning over the drivel/speak dynamics, a mystic gibberish brush-fire set in the mind of a skeptical spaghetti-god cleric and spreading ever outwards and upwards- a pantheist faking it until they make it- a Taoist involving themselves in the touchstone that brings strange bliss- a story with a kernel of truth proving to be fundamentally healing. Such acts are cathartic.  As it can be said so simply on this digital media structure: "I am the Storyteller." But that goes for everybody.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what's the story? What's the problem on that large enough scale? Fear and Greed, though not necessarily in that order. Girl with the hair and girl with the dais. Podium-mongers. Face-first into the flopping alternative backlash of ultra-conservative death-centric rhetoric.  Associations between unrelated structures. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Yeah, hey, our Leader is cracking amyl nitrate in the back room and having a menage a trois with two nubile neophytes. Hey, did you know he's also the Voice of God? &lt;/span&gt;The story certainly begs the question "So what?" but identifies a necessary genetic imperative set in the royal superhighway of DNA helix or more esoterically speaking the &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;kundalini&lt;/span&gt;, spell-checked with an alternative here as "vandalism". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ours is the generation of gutters and sewers, the dismantling of the elevated platforms science fiction buffs pine for to this day, the lobbyist-controlled short-term gain supply-side reform yuppie day-trader shits that presume to know shit about fuck, when we all damn-well know that that is far from the case in any actuality.  We must remain optimistic in spite of this, maintaining a balance between rampant shifting and humming stability. Bear in mind that this 'I' and 'We' is only presumed, but the inclinations of the manifestations can become clear through steady evaluation and properly preparing the Home foe that arrival.  The formulation of the aim in these seeks at first and effortless method, then as we look closer into this aspect, it becomes more and more complex.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-4945711695444079240?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/4945711695444079240/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=4945711695444079240' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/4945711695444079240'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/4945711695444079240'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2009/10/aspect-available-becomes-far-more.html' title=''/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-6559571602876130553</id><published>2009-09-17T12:32:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-17T12:32:50.445-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Powells</title><content type='html'>&lt;IMG SRC="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2158/2522497094_ea341f8b21_b.jpg"&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17198906-6559571602876130553?l=acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/feeds/6559571602876130553/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17198906&amp;postID=6559571602876130553' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/6559571602876130553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17198906/posts/default/6559571602876130553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acknowledgeandproceed.blogspot.com/2009/09/powells.html' title='Powells'/><author><name>Lane Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dA9iwKzd050/SKtohqlLDeI/AAAAAAAAAEo/oI2mt9D-8kY/S220/n82100802_30446569_4320.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2158/2522497094_ea341f8b21_t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17198906.post-4553866814911040711</id><published>2009-09-15T19:40:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-15T19:44:02.456-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>A family of German Shepards, a mother, a father, and two well-sized pups, run down the sidewalk and into traffic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From a passing car, a boy calls to a girl: "Gimme some that chicken!"&lt;br /&gt;Girl: "Whaat?"&lt;br /&gt;Boy: "Why don't you gimme somma that chicken!"&lt;br /&gt;Girl: "Nuh uh!

Flatlanders we, law of the jungle being eat or be eaten, survival instinct stint.     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Old old soul traversing the aethernet, quibbling over quantities as it/we/I go. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forgive our seeming obfuscation. Due to lack or overabundance. Spirit infusing material. Golden cube at the center of the room. Wealth in several forms. Armor for astral conflict. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We bid you, lick the rim of the scum bucket and pay homage to your mother protozoa with vomit, sundry soul-suckers of this holographic travesty, well-fed hostages of a Power Greater than Yourself.

By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude.

It's impossible to 'do' anything without proper understanding of the necessary components of an action.  Most actions are circumstantial, put into place weeks, months, or years before they come to pass.  The illusion of action is a strong one.  Things happen. Things are happening continually and we seek to affect change, impose our order onto the teeming chaos of the everyday, and we of course fail only insofar as our understanding is limited, our perspective flawed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To affect change in the outer world one must first affect change within, and the difficulty is variable given the particularities of circumstance.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One must surmount stagnation if they can hope to achieve the fullest scope of their capabilities.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am disconcerted.
