Seriously people - how long have I been going on about this?
Waste of breath, for the most part, isn't it?

St. Moritz
You know I
actually get invites to places that Alex Jones and others talk about a lot with
some considerable disdain. Most of those ‘events’ which get featured in the
general media are these days the second-string though. Too many people already
know too much about what is said to be going on at those gatherings and so the
‘hard core’ goes even deeper to ground.
Even so, you can see and feel the trailing
whisps...!

this was political correctness then...
Even for a muslim...

Take St.
Moritz for one example. The Bilderberg Group went there a couple of years ago.
I’m not sure though – are the Bilderbergers of the mind to think they are
something ‘higher’ or more connected than the normal ski-bunnies and the
bunny-masters who go to St. Moritz each season.
This year, while the
press is posting pictures of a melted, slurry-darkened, wet St Basils surrounds
in Moscow, the
snow has been very good in St. Moritz, where they eat a lot of caviar and the
dames still feel naked without their Barguzinskaya coats.
Yet I have
friends in Moscow and they tell me the snow has been great there – there isn’t
any slurry and slippery ice, just the usual pretty white winter scene. I wonder
why the usual media is as a man using the same drab wet slurry spoiled scene.
St. Moritz today |
Heavy wealth
is very tribal. Those who do the Sydney-to-Hobart are distinctly not the same
as those who do St. Moritz or Gstaad.
This coming year
I will find for you some less-problematic tribal wealth. There is much going on
in the background.

Snegurochka
I have
personally known one or two industrial designers over the course of a lot of
years. Not very many, mind you, just one or two I have known quite well enough
to say they were friends whilst they were alive; and they are not, as is
implicit in the wording, alive any more of course.
The
understandings they communicated to me were simply amazing to me when I was a
younger person. When they used words like ‘dynamic,’ and ‘force’ and
‘foreground’- the way they explained the ideas behind such words was totally
enlightening to me.

Some design here...

They made
everything start out from such simple basics too.
A basic is a
foundation, but it may not be simple! But great industrial designers have a way
of breaking things down into very simple elements.
Design is a
progression using simple building blocks but employing the edges of any defined
thing, and the borders or bridges demarking things which are by small degrees
separately defined, but closely related. And then when you incorporate action
or movement, and time, and severity or gentleness of curvature and density or
heaviness or lightness, on the top of ideal straight lines, you begin to get a
living structure. Living in time and space, but also alive to the subtle senses
possessed by the human being, and conveying meaning to the human mind.
Architects
and designers know what to be ‘living’ in these terms means. The contemporary
mind insists on trying to adjudge whether a thing ‘exists’ or not, rather than
observing that a thing unseen may yet be alive in a subtle way. But even material
existence is a far more unusual thing than many ordinary people care to know...
Snegurochka - The Snow Maiden
|
The genesis
of the Snegurochka – the Snow Maiden – dates from long before Communism in
Russia. It shows the Russian mindset certainly predated the Communist Russian
ideology. If you consult Wikipedia on it, you will see the most blatant
anti-Russian and ‘anti-myth’ modern propaganda about it – it’s complete rubbish
and deliberately so...
Soon, we
shall not have snow anymore. And then even this shall pass into mystery and
dubious beliefs of the past. Lol. Climate change you know. (Nods sagely).
But in
reality everything old is new again. The latest, most avant-garde popular
entertainment – The Legend of Korra – essentially a re-imagined modern anime,
is an ancient Greek story with every single piece, even the names, completely
intact. Yet the kids think they invented it though. I have not yet consulted the
Wiki on this but I know what I shall see there. Aarne-Thompson does not know
how to deal with this particular kind of myth... And that’s because like all
other post-Cartesian propagandas, Aarne-Thompson too is specious. That is why mainstream
schools of psychology despise university academia. Jung is discounted and the
pretentiousness of Aarne-Thompson is worshipped as ‘golden truth.’ Personally I think it is an interesting
codex (IE., A-T) but no more than that.
I wonder how
many people realise that the story of Father Christmas is actually a very old
version of CSI?
People write
into folklore what was very unusual in its day. And that is the reality of it.
All folklore is true, and even though there are no physical straight lines in
Nature, yet underneath industrial design there is a subtle ‘straight line’
which is in Nature. And I would counsel even the most cynical or ‘realistic’ to
scratch a little deeper beneath the surface than all the sides of modern
sociological disputation represent – they are all fundamentally flawed
arguments and wrong because they are so politically loaded. People object to
the power claimed within the myth. That is only because they themselves have
never accessed it or think that they cannot. The Ipsissimus can never reveal himself. He is there
though. It’s part of the whole human thing. Think Steve Jobs. And project him
another five hundred years from now. Anything
is possible. This, you should know as
my message of Christmas.

Think You know, Do You?
On Friday, 15 March 2013, I posted something here called 'Calling Andy Garcia.'

A guy who deals in Cuban cigars. And who is a 'friend' of the global-operating casino owner, James Packer. Ta ta, James.
Otherwise,
NO COMMENT!

A Blistering Attack
And yet at the
same time is it entirely realistic of me to keep trying to avoid talking about
all of this?
I have said
for many months now that I wanted to steer well clear of what was going to
happen – it was not a guess any more than the CIA’s ‘misery index’ is just
guesswork about whether or not things are likely to get ugly suddenly in any
given society.
I actually
detest what has been going on – it is very distracting from the things I, you,
and everyone in business prefers to focus on.
Modern Arab think tank guy -
Maajid Nawaz
|
Anderson
Cooper’s interview of 16 Dec 2014, of the Quilliam member, Maajid Nawaz, was
absolutely spot on: Nawaz said to stop referring to these people as ‘lone
wolves,’ because that is not what they are.
I don’t
think Nawaz is going to be listened to though. And that means these things will
continue all over the world.
This is a
free blog and there is no conceivable reason I can think of for me to attract
the wrong kind of, and completely unnecessary attention, by blurting something
out that would lead to just more of the wrong kinds of questions.
Don’t trust
what you are being told by governments though. On the surface they are all
holier-than-thou and so-on and stand on television complimenting the field
officers for putting their lives on the line and resolving crisis situations
involving serious violence and threats of violence.
Underneath
it they take twenty million dollars from criminals found guilty of oil subsidy
frauds in South Africa, and massive oil frauds in Nigeria, allow those
individuals in on forged passports, whilst bunnies stuck with that individual’s
identity are jailed in say South Africa, for example – falsely, of course – and
then that criminal pays for and is allowed to promote Islamic missionary
activities inside the country that are precisely designed to agent provocate people like Mohammad
Hassan Manteghi . Oh, I meant ‘Man Haron
Monis,’ the name the media is using to talk about the Sydney chocolate shop
gunman.
Underneath
it, they take massive investment inflows from dictatorships like that of Sri
Lanka, and even taken terrorism advice from representatives of those
dictatorships, such as Rohan Gunaratna, so-called ‘terrorism expert.’
Another cheap Sydney Barrister- lol (with Maajid Nawaz, again) |
And then, to
cap it all, senior intelligence staff, go off to Riyadh and Dubai, to hob-nob
with the exact same big-money international money fraudsters in their
multi-million dollar lifestyle abodes where they also put up officers from MI6
who are deeply inveigled in the money. Am I guessing? Not really – it’s all
contained in a recent Auditor General’s report into questionable ‘tourism
planning’ non-tendered contracts worth fifty million put out by the then Gallop
Western Australian State Government and continued by the current Liberal Party
government.
Sydney –
which is a big finance hub of the world, rather than just a large city in
Australia – one thing about it, you know when you are there, that it is
exciting and fast-paced and very very
professional. Full of professional people. Media centre of Australasia. It isn’t
cheap to live there.
