Here It Comes Slowly
Crawling like a thunder slug
Now it smells like a war drug
Here it comes slowly
Here it comes slowly
Deeply burried in the bowels
Now it spurts out of the wells
Here it comes slowly
Here it comes slowly
We can keep that beast away it still lays in its gore
We'll never stand fascism anymore
No way out no miracle, just stop it your blood
Has your neighbour really understood ?!
We all wallow in dirt
But there's a shadow to hurt
Crawling like a thunder slug
Now it smells like a war drug
Deeply buried in the bowels
Now it spurts out of the wells
Sad shit flowing to the skin
No one forget what you mean
If it grows up like a death tree
Why don't we beat it down here and now ?

What do we know about the seismic weapon today?
During the Second World War New Zealand researchers have attempted to develop a machine to generate tsunamis that can be used against Japan. The project was directed by Australian Thomas Leech of the University of Auckland, under the codename "Project Seal". Several small-scale experiments were conducted in 1944-1945 at Whangaparaoa. They were successful.
The United States viewed the program as promising, as much as the "Manhattan Project" for producing an atomic bomb. They appointed Dr. Karl T. Compton to liaise between the two research units. Compton was the president of MIT. He had already recruited many scientists for the war effort and was one of eight individuals responsible for advising President Truman on the use of the atomic bomb. He thought that it could provide energy for the Leech's team to cause larger tsunamis.
The works of Thomas Leech were pursued during the Cold War. In 1947, George VI lifted the dignity of Knight of the British Empire as a reward for having developed a new weapon. Project Seal is still a military secret, it was not revealed at the time he was honored for tsunami bomb. Subsequently, U.S. intelligence services were applied to believe that such research had never existed and that it was all a decoy to impress the Soviets. However, the authenticity Leech's test was established in 1999 as part of the documentation and has been declassified by the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Official studies have resumed today at the University of Waikato.
It is unclear whether the Anglo-Saxon research were pursued during the 60s, but they have taken things by force when it was decided to abandon nuclear tests in the atmosphere for the submarines . The United States feared to cause inadvertently earthquakes and tsunamis. They wanted to know to do so voluntarily.
Officially, at the end of the Vietnam War, the United States and the Soviet Union had renounced environmental war (earthquakes, tsunamis, upset the ecological balance of a region, changes in weather-clouds precipitation, tornadoes, and hurricanes, changes in weather, ocean currents, the state of the ozone layer or ionosphere) by signing the "Convention on the prohibition on the use of techniques to modifyi the environment for military or other hostile purposes "(1976).
However, since 1975, the Soviet Union has begun a new research on Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). It was to study the Earth's crust and to predict earthquakes. The Soviets studied the possibility of causing small earthquakes to prevent large ones. These searches were quickly militarized. They resulted in the construction of Pamir, the earthquake machine.
During the dismantling of the USSR, leaders of the program decided to move to the United States, but research was still incomplete since the Pentagon refused to pay. In 1995, when Russia was ruled by Boris Yeltsin and the oligarch Viktor Chernomyrdin, the U.S. Air Force recruited researchers and their labs from Nizhny Novgorod. They built a more powerful machine, Pamir 3, which was successfully tested. The Pentagon then bought men and equipment and moved to the USA where they were integrated into the HAARP program.
Your "Free world" is a lie.

Started in late 2008, The Zeitgeist Movement exists fundamentally as the communication and activist arm of an organization called The Venus Project. The basic pursuit of The Movement is to begin transition into a new, sustainable social design called a “Resource-Based Economy”. This term was first coined by Jacque Fresco of the Venus Project and refers to an economic structure based exclusively on resource management and relevant education.
The world today has become very detached from nature, with techniques of production and distribution that have no relationship to the physical environment. Our use of a profit based, “growth” driven monetary system has become one of the greatest destroyers of the natural world and sustainable human values. It is important to understand that the entire global economy requires “cyclical consumption” to operate, which means that money must constantly be circulating. Thus, new goods and services must be constantly introduced regardless of the state of the environment and actual human necessity. This "perpetual" approach has a fatal flaw, for resources as we know it are not infinite. Resources are finite and the Earth is essentially a closed system. Once we run out of life sustaining resources, the game is over. For example, our entire society is constructed out of fossil fuels, which are not renewable, and require millions of years to develop. The plastics in everything you own, along with the ammonia-based fertilizer which is used for the mass production of food, coupled with the outrageous amounts of energy used in transportation, along with the electrical grid that powers your home, are almost all derived from fossil fuels. In other words, we have constructed a society based on a resource that is nonrenewable. What is going to happen when we run out of this resource? It is simply a matter of time, isn't it? This is a question which is critical to consider, for the consequences are dire and staggering for the human species unless we make a quantum and radical change quickly.
Sadly, the intents associated with the monetary system are counter progressive in this regard, and derive a strategic edge from scarcity itself. This means that depleted resources are actually a positive thing for industry in the short term, for more money can be made off each respective unit. This is known as the basic law of supply & demand and hence “value” in economics. This creates a perverse reinforcement to ignore environmental problems and the negative consequences of scarcity, for it literally translates into profit.
To make matters worse, the system requires problems/constant consumer interest in order to work. The more people who have cancer in America, the better the economy due to expensive medical treatments. Needless to say, this generates an inherent disregard for human well being. The monetary arrangement, whether in the form of capitalism, communism, socialism, fascism, free-market or the like, is utterly detached from natural resources and thus human well-being. It is erroneously assumed that the incentive to seek money is also the incentive to help society. Nothing could be further from the truth. For example, every single product created by a corporation is immediately inferior by design, for the market requirement to cut creation costs in favor of lowering the output "purchase price" to maintain a competitive edge, automatically reduces the quality of any given item by default. In other words it is impossible to create the “best” long lasting anything in our society and this translates into, again, outrageous amounts of resource waste. This is entirely and provably unsustainable as a social system and the world you are beginning to see emerge around you, with starvation, poverty, unemployment; along with the growing scarcity of water, food and arable land, is the result.
Likewise, most occupations are not directly related to the actual necessities of life. Rather, they are artificial concoctions in order to keep people employed so they can maintain purchasing power. The very reality that each human being is required to be put in a position of servitude to a corporation or client in order to gain income to purchase the necessities of life also perpetuates extreme waste... however, this time, it is the waste of the human mind and human life. In the modern world, advancements in science and technology have shown that we can automate a great deal. In fact, statistically speaking, the more we have applied mechanization to labor, the more productive things have become. Therefore, it is not only negligent for us to waste our lives waiting tables, working at a bus station, fixing cars, or other repetitive, monotonous jobs, it is also entirely irresponsible for us not to apply modern mechanization techniques to all industries possible for, apart from strategic resource management, this is a powerful way to achieve balance and abundance for all the world's people, reducing crime generating imbalances. In other words, it is time to update society to present day knowledge, taking the carrying capacity of the earth into account and realigning our methods based not on the reward of monetary gain..but the goal of social sustainability as a whole.
Even with our current, destructive methods, the Earth is still abundant with resources. Today our practice of rationing resources through monetary methods is irrelevant and counter-productive to the well-being of people. Today’s society has access to highly advanced technologies and can easily provide more than enough for a very high standard of living for all the earth’s people. This is possible through the implementation of a Resource-Based Economy.
A Resource-Based Economy utilizes existing resources rather than money, and provides an equitable method of distribution in the most humane and efficient manner for the entire population. It is a system in which all natural, man-made, machine-made, and synthetic resources would be available without the use of money, credits, barter, or any other form of symbolic exchange. A Resource-Based Economy would utilize existing resources from the land and sea, and the means of production, such as physical equipment and industrial plants, to enhance the lives of the total population. In an economy based on resources, conservation and the most advanced methods of science and technology, we could easily produce all of the necessities of life and provide a high standard of living for all. To do this, we have to overcome our current, outdated, established practices. This is the purpose of The Zeitgeist Movement- to create a global awareness to thus transition into a new, sustainable direction for humanity as a whole.

First Circle
"I AM WHAT I AM." This is the latest offering of the marketing world, the final stage in the evolution of advertising, ahead, so much ahead of all the exhortations to be different, to be yourself and to drink Pepsi. Decades of concepts to get there, the pure tautology. I = I. He's running on a treadmill before the mirror of his gym club. She's coming back from work driving her Smart. Will they meet? "I AM WHAT I AM. "My body belongs to me. I am me, you're you, and things are going bad. Mass customization. Individualization of all conditions - of living, of working, of trouble. Schizophrenia broadcasts. Depression's coming rampant. Atomization into fine paranoid particles. Contact's hysterization. The more I want to be me, the more I feel a void. The more I speak, the more I'm petering out. The more i'm running after myself, the more I am tired. I hold, you hold, we hold our "Self" as a wicket. We have became the representatives of ourselves - this strange business, the guarantors of a customization that has all the aspects, in the end, of an amputation...
The injunction everywhere to "be somebody" maintains the pathological condition that makes this society a need. The injunction to be strong produces the weakness by which society is maintaining itself, to the point where everything seems to be a therapeutic aspect, even work, even love. All the "Are you OK? " that are exchanged in a day are similar to many temperature measurements that are administered by us to each other in a society now constituted of patients. Sociability is made of a thousand little niches, thousands of small refuges where warmth is held. Where it is always better than the big bitter cold outside. Where everything is wrong, because everything is a pretext to keep warm. Where nothing can happen because everyone is surdingly busy shivering together. This society will soon stand only by the tension of all its social atoms toward an illusory healing. It is a plant of which turbine takes its energy from a huge retention of tears always on the verge of flooding.
"I AM WHAT I AM." Never domination has ever found a watchword that is so much beyond suspicion. Keeping ego in a state of semi-permanent disrepair, in semi-chronic failure is the best kept secret of the actual order of things. The weakened self, depressed, self-criticising, virtual, is in essence the matter indefinitely adaptable that is required by a production-based innovation, the rapid obsolescence of technology, the constant disruption of social norms, the general flexibility. It is both the most voracious consumers and, paradoxically, the most productive ego, who will throw itself onto any project with the greatest of energy and greed to return later on in its larval state of origin.
"WHAT I AM" then? traversed since the infancy by milk flows, smells, stories, sounds, affections, rhymes, substances, actions, ideas, impressions, looks, songs and nosh . What am I? Linked in all directions to places, sufferings, ancestors, friends, lovers, events, languages, memories, all sorts of things that obviously are not me. Anything that links me to the world, all the links that constitutes me, all the strengths that inhabit me do not weave an identity, as some may encourage me to claim, but an existence, singular, common, alive, and of which emerges in places, at times, this being that say "I". Our sense of inconsistency is a byproduct of this stupid belief in the permanency of the ego, and the carelessness of what is making us.
There is a vertigo to see on a skyscraper in Shanghai the "I AM WHAT I AM" from Reebok. The Occident is advancing everywhere , as his favorite Trojan horse, this tedious discrepancy between the "self" and the world, the individual and the group, between commitment and freedom. Freedom is not the gesture of getting rid of our attachments, but the practical ability to operate on them, move inside them, to establish them or slice them. The family exists as family, that is to say as hell, only for the one who has renounced to alter its debilitating mechanisms, or doesn't know how to do that. The freedom to break away has always been the ghost of freedom. We do not get rid of what is hindering us without loosing at the same time that which our forces could be exercised on.
"I AM WHAT I AM", therefore, not a simple lie, a simple advertising campaign, but a military campaign, a war cry against everything that is between people, against anything which circulates indistinctively, everything that binds invisibly, everything that impedes the perfect desolation, against everything that makes us exist and that the world doesn't look like a highway everywhere, an amusement park or a new city: pure boredom, dispassionate and orderly, empty space, glazed, inside of which circulate no more than registered bodies, molecules automobiles and ideal goods.
France isn't the homeland of anxiolytics, the antidepressants paradise, the mecca of neurosis without beeing simultaneously the european champion of hourly productivity. Illness, fatigue, depression, can be taken as individual symptoms of what is needed to be healed of. They then work to maintain the existing order, to tame my adjustment to deficient standards, modernization of my crutches. They include the selection of my inclinations timely, consistent, productive, and those I will have to gently mourn. "You have to change, you know." But, taken as facts, my failures can also lead to the dismantling of the hypothesis of the self. They become acts of resistance in the ongoing war. They become rebellion and a center of energy against everything that conspires to standardize us, to amputate us. The ego is not what is in crisis inside ourselves, but the form that is attempted to be inprinted on us. Some want to make us well-defined "selves", well separated and identified by classifiable qualities in short, controllable, when we are creatures among creatures, oddities among our fellow, living flesh weaving the world's flesh. On contrary to what we are told since childhood, intelligence is not only beeeing able to adapt - or whether this is intelligence, it is that of slaves. Our inadequacy, our exhaustion, are problems only from the point of view of what is trying to submit us. Rather, they suggest a starting point, a junction for new complicities. They make us perceive a landscape far more dilapidated, but infinitely more shareable than all the fantasies that the society maintains on its account.
We're not depressed, we are on strike. For one who refuses to manage himself, "depression" is not a state but a passage, a goodbye, a step sideways towards polical disaffiliation. From there, there is no conciliation other than pharmaceutical or coercive . That's why this society is not afraid to impose "Ritalin" to the rowdy children, braid pharmaceutical loins dependencies and pretends to detect the "behavioral predispositions" on three years old kids. Because it is the assumption of the "self" that is cracking everywhere...

New paintings in my "Colors!" gallery:
I really love this homebrew software running on the NDS !
I really love this homebrew software running on the NDS !
I was bored to draw frogs so i've tried to make a cool "digital painting" from one of Otoki's set.
and yes.
I like her very much.
and yes.
I like her very much.
Stumbled upon an awesome homebrew for the NDS.
Gave it a try and ended with a nice froggy !
All you need is a linker with Micro SD card and you'll be ready to use the touch screen to draw anywhere,
The app you need: "Colors!"
