Midnight ramblings on the Sin-gularity 09/17/2010

Our minds can no longer keep pace with the growing abundance of information as we near the pinnacle of the communications singularity. Every piece of information, (due to the sheer amount of information) must be tactfully glazed over, sparing encoded, partly stored and effectively forgotten, as there is simply too much bullshit going on for us to have a sustained interest in something for longer then 5 minutes, we are driven like dogs to a gut truck, to and fro, corralled here and there at the whim of the senior editors every ejaculation, no time to stop and learn how to swim, much less get our feet wet. It is the “telescoping nature of evolution” to borrow a phrase, as throughout our species development and our adoption of consciousness, evolution becomes accelerated as the potential of body is exponentially multiplied by mind and sublimated into these instruments that extend our sensory and physical capacities beyond our wildest dreams, only to boil to a crescendo when digital and biological ingenuity collide, all under the control of unelected oligarchs and plutocrats who we all hope will be just with this power. For example it took millions of years to begin civilization, thousands of years to invent electricity, hundred of years to invent the automobile, and a decade to invent the internet. If a species ethics are not sound prior to reaching the apex n the natural progression, it will amount to an oppression only known to the animals they now unsparingly consume.
You likely know what I mean when I speak of being bombarded by overwhelming amounts of information, one look at your “live” facebook news feed confirms this, if your like me you need to scroll through 10 pages of utter horseshit just to get up to speed as to what people have been deluding themselves with for the past half hour. Something that is headline news one day, is eclipsed with wave after wave of reports of catastrophe, corruption, death, and destruction, peppered amongst your naive friends location updates, relationship statuses and miserable attempts at morality in their gratuitous addition of cause apps (?), to a point in which anything that happened more then 15 minutes ago is necessarily old news.
I have previously explained my theory with regards to the positive relationship between the minimalism of content and the abundance of content, in that the more content there is, it must necessarily be more narrow, shallow and quick to process. I explained this as a progression in the way stories were told throughout history. Showing how the creative and timeless element of story telling has been supplemented by a copious abundance of insignificant real time trivialities. For example I explained the advent of reality TV (which now dominates all television) as a consequence of the exhaustion of our libidinal capacity to innovate new ideas, and our inert and impotent prefabricated culture of lies, this itself is another by-product of the cultural singularity (the increasing homogeneity of culture). What began as original and innovative forms of propaganda have now been reduced to re-runs of reality TV shows, and this will soon be supplanted by the emerging market that is, real time news, all the time, anytime, about everything, and everyone, no innovation simply a perfected means of editing out anything that is of real benefit to humankind, to the benefit of the profit margins of cancerous imperialists.
Bad news is not in short supply, and how could we expect anything else in this era of consequences. As I have explained before if we look at the progression of media throughout history we can anticipate that the future of entertainment involves solely bad news. We got really wasted and now its time for the hangover. No TV shows, no tired reruns, just in your face fuck you real time reality, but not "real" reality of course, I am talking about that "augmented" shit they are passing off as reality. The epochalypse is a term I use to describe the accumulation of these singularities, the point in which the smart grid starts thinking more then the dumb dumbs it empowers, it’s the point in which the increasingly overwhelming amount of information becomes so overwhelming, that we demand to be oppressed for the sake of simplifying our lives, it will happen ever so incrementally yet build to a crescendo in the coming years. A key aspect of any singularity be it cultural, technological, or social is this:
When the creation process becomes automated and is no longer susceptible to human intervention. So imagine a point in which artificial intelligence is able to create better versions of itself, this is the classic example which can be applied to any singularity, for example with culture it’s the point in which the homogenous nature of art becomes self-guiding and is entirely devoid of actual human involvement and when what is produced is determined by the environment, not the actors within it.
The epochalypse will materialize in every domain and discipline, be it physical (cybernetics, genetic enhancement), technological (artificial intelligence to moderate the system instead of intelligence agencies!), anthropological/ cultural (the point of cultural monotony and total monopoly, the homogenization of culture) psychological (the point in which the collective narcissism of peoples individuality fully neuters their ability to be act like individuals).
We have already been suckered into allowing the internet to become a hive mind/ Gaia/ Eywa equivalent which would not be so unnerving was it not entirely controlled by a handful of people and de facto websites and social media, a place where anyone can access anything from anywhere, providing information about everything in real time, all at the editorial whim of the unelected members of mindfuck inc. Excessive security measures have been implemented in all western societies to control hoards of zombies crying like the spoiled little bitches they are because they are being called out for consuming 80% of the planets resources, usuriously acting on their primitive unconscious desires through ways that are socially acceptable to the neurotic mindfuck, with the assistance of Zions nukes overseeing their energy supply required to fuel this TOTAL WASTE OF EVERYTHING. New technology from laser tasers to ray guns to iDrones to satellite x-ray facial recognition to “smart” technology of all varieties are poised to readily crackdown on the most minute display of social dissent committed by the encapsulated minds of nation iTard. The people can only now watch in desensitized horror and passing disgust as the banking swindlers bask in their new found security having offloaded the responsibilities of the panopticon onto the self-censoring gridlocked avatards, from the comfort of the Burj Dubai with Osama Bin Laden indulging in copious amounts of hookers and blow in the background, with nurses and organ donors on call. This is the fucking future my friends/ infiltrators.
This is the true essence of the NEW world order, and is the only thing that is truly new, the only thing new is the automated method of controlling people. The ‘system’ for the first time ever is not just an abstract concept, rather a collection of variables within equations, fully automated for your convenience, and it now has been given a form in ubiquitous surveillance. They were able to do this by intentionally complicating life, and then offering some regulatory mechanism for your convenience. Standard problem, reaction, solution. Take for instance the facebook live feed, and how they are slowly trying to phase it into a solely “top news” feed, in which what is shown to say is said to reflect a combination of what you find relevant and of course what Facebook finds relevant because they realize there is no way you can effectively use so much information.
In the meantime the fucking world is burning, and that is no overstatement. To meet the worlds unrelenting lust for cheap shit and new iPods every fucking month the earth is being devoured for by greedy resource whores, and “investors” who remotely, through a series of socially acceptable hoops and red tape, are strip-mining, ripping and dipping deeper and deeper into the deepest crevasse of the great mother to keep their meaningless hierarchical pyradigm foisted on all of us . As there is no end in sight to this dick lengthening contest, we would be wise to expect the exponential increase in conflict and struggle to occupy what remains of our minds throughout this pre-mature transition.
The only solution to this evolutionary conundrum is a bona fide global revolution, (not of the financed trotskyite sort) and the only way to have a feasible revolution that will not simply come to reflect its former state of oppression is to adopt a new means of communication. I am a firm believer that you cannot have a revolution unless there is a innovative technological revolution to accompany it. Anything ado with the internet is literally enemy territory so to rely on it to foster meaningful change and truly subversive dialog, is profoundly naïve, and indeed fadsmashers is well aware of the limits of this approach. We must not merely innovate ideas, but also technology, I don't speak of mere hardware, rather improvements in our wetware, a revolution in the way we think. It all starts with believing nothing, especially me, it comes with being critical, a democracy isn't worth a fuck if people cannot effectively make decisions. We need to teach people to THINK again, and I don't mean reeducate like this morally moronic Zeitgeist bunch has in mind (who piss me off more and more everyday because of their persistent dodging of questions, and downright ignorance in debates) thats all for show. The only way to survive the epochalypse and come out a human being on the other side is to question everything, question the questioners, and even those questioning the questioners. People say "well wont this make for a indecisive schizopolis"? NO. It will make for a society of THOUGHTFUL individuals (we have been trained to call them cynics and pessimists because they see through the bullshit) who will collectively use LOGIC and EMPATHY to deal with the problems we face as a species.
And we could.
