Parable Of Zarathustra

Am I the first?

Of all of the reviews and discussions about - I'll not say 'critiques' (no one can do that) - of Eyes Wide Shut, there are none as yet, I believe, that have made reference to Kubrick's interest in Strauss's Also sprach Zarathustra as the actual basis of the movie.

No doubt you will recall the beginning of 2001 A Space Odyssey, which completely relies on the fanfare beginning of Strauss's tone poem (Also sprach Zarathustra), and of course Kubrick himself noted the significance of Nietzsche's great work about the (his) character of Zarathustra, who rushes into a public place seeking god with a lantern, only to be derided by the crowd and deemed a fool or a madman.
Nietzsche by Eduard Munch

Although everyone seems to hold that the movie Eyes Wide Shut is a filmed version of the story The Nightmare by Arthur Schnitzler, this is only a bare 'clothes horse' and in fact it is Kubrick's working of the ideas and philosophy of Nietzsche's Parable Of Zarathustra that is the real story and the intention.

The movie itself cannot be understood merely from the perspective that it is Schnitzler's story, simply because of the symbological discussion that Kubrick makes to go on within the scenes; and these ideas expressed in symbols are calls back to Kubrick's past attention to Nietzsche. There are no such ideas and symbols in Schnitzler's work.

Tom Cruise pointed out that 'Kubrick does not make mistakes, and everything is in the movie on purpose.' I suppose it is a radical perspective of mine to even go so far as to say that very likely Kubrick himself desired both the actors themselves and other directors to finish the film - because that is exactly how Nietzsche concludes the body of his work dealing with the fictional philosopher 'Zarathustra.' And I am sure no one has realised this yet about this particular movie.
A nerd, a genius, and Nicole.

Yes, a lot of people have said that the (this particular) movie occupies an important place in modern literary work, but I'm not sure they know why.

In fact, it is intended that this movie be re-made by future people... That is the whole point of Zarathustra's philosophy.

Virtual Reality Gordon Gekko

The VR Gordon Gekko website

Here's something new - this is the Virtual Reality Gordon Gekko development website:

http://interqward1.wix.com/digitalsyntheticmind

This is the 'Enhanced Recall' program website -
like the movie 'Total Recall,' only this is real.
http://interqward1.wix.com/enhanced-recall

Hey there's a lot more to this than can be shown for free on an open access website, and, as far as the actual prototype hardware goes, right now we're up to a small fortune in development costs so that won't be out there for free any time soon!!



Virtual money? Nope, real money. If you go to - I think - the fourth page or the contact page, you'll see.

Risky, dangerous, illegal money - nope. Just picked up a few dollars from an 'adult content' Oculus Rift developer from the Deep Web!

Money Always Moves

A lot of - well probably most of - tax dodging and money laundering proceeds from an entirely incorrect premise.
Van Gogh's Irises

Firstly, you will encounter this idea and attitude that 'oh, well, if I only just didn't have to pay this tax, I'll then have enough and be satisfied and have the money that I want to have...'

And once again this is the same kind of flawed thinking that even people like Ben Bernanke indulged in when he was Chairman of the US Federal Reserve - namely, that money is static.

Money is always moving.

There is no such thing as having the money you want to have - there is only possession of the continuous real capacity to buy the broadest variety of things.

Secondly, there is an attitude of resolving the past; 'if I can but avoid what in essence is already fixed as a fact as owed - then I will be happy and satisfied and have enough.'

So the incorrect premise is that of attempting 'to fix' a past static fact.

We are witnessing in the recent press, stories concerning several banks' involvement with money laundering and tax dodging for cocaine dealers and criminals and celebrities and all kinds of people. And the mechanisms were said to have involved 'secret accounts.' Of course it is clear now that the banks had no such a thing as a truly 'secret' set of client accounts.

People, and corporations are regularly disenfranchised by the regular competing interests in human power - namely, political sources, psychologically impaired administrators and officials, other people seeking power, wives, mistresses, and Lagerfeld's famous 'expensive' friends!

Society is not co-operative. That is why banks cannot be trusted to remain secretive about their clients. Banks will co-operate with the immediate most important 'client,' rather than the counterparty to any past agreement.

Real money laundering and tax dodging are automatic processes not involving retained counterparties.

Here is a scene in the French Charente:

You should note it in respect to the picture in the immediate previous blog entry in which I showed a picture of an old French stone building in the Cognac district of the Charente.

Now, you can see all over the internet, experts' opinions and reviews of Cognac, great and ordinary, and even the industry itself's discussion about the differences between descriptions - VSOP, OP, XO, and so on.

But this is what you must know about Cognac, if you are to know it in truth - a great Cognac, like a great woman, ought not to be attempted to be opened in anything under um thirty, even thirty-five years. And you cannot, if you are one of these modern day marketeers and commercial operators, make money from waiting around for thirty-five years!

Consequently, you are unlikely to have ever encountered an actual Cognac in the style of the Napoleonic Era - regardless of how much you paid, what the brand name is, or any other thing.

You... are unlikely... to have ever tasted a proper Cognac. Full Stop. (Or period, as the Americans say).

Now here is a picture of the Irises, but it is not the same as the painting hanging in the Getty Gallery:

The Irises

But people want to see what they want to see, rather than what is real. And that is why fools still use banks like HSBC and UBS and so on.

Do not be a fool yourself.

Tax dodging and money laundering are not about the money you think is there, or was there - it is about things which have not happened yet.

What has not happened yet, however, is more real than what has already happened and has drifted into the past - but this is not something readily explained to ordinary people.

Money never changes. But the banking system and banks do, and so do governments and even government systems. I suppose the most amazing thing about money is that when it comes to guarantees, the future is more guarantee-able than the past. Again, not an idea that has currency among those who just lost several billions hoping that HSBC knew what they were doing! And you know what, still they will not get it.

While idiot governments and criminals pretending to be watchers over our safety and security hug closely the money they believe is in their grasp, the world of money itself, has wandered away...

Trapping The NSA And The FBI

So there is this old aphorism in the intelligence business - sometimes a downstream thing is also an upline means of information flow.
 
And then there's another really famous one about 'two armies in the mist.' We'll leave that for a later date.
An expensive hotel in Paris
 
It seems to me that a two hundred per cent increase in viewer flow each time I stick something to do with the words 'money laundering' has more to do with those who have the time and the resources to go around doing continuous meta-tag searching. I wonder who that could be?
 
Anyway, so for those particular people, here is something that will explode their tiny little minds: Yanis Varoufakis uses what some Greeks know as 'the vocal ellipse' when he speaks. And this will prove too difficult for people like Wolfgang Scheuble to comprehend. The vocal ellipse has some explanation dedicated to it in the usual resources such as Professor Wikipedia and Professor Google - but none of these are what some types of Greeks know.
 
Thus you can hide something completely in open view and it will be totally obscure to many others.
 
Here, for example, is one of the most important centres for global tax avoidance and money laundering in the world:
This is in France...
 
Now, for the most part, money laundering falls into two categories - the first, in which very large and important corporates use various mechanisms and things available to them, to reduce their exposures, and the second, that applies mainly to petty drug criminals and the like, which tends to be a business activity individually sub-million dollars though around at least the million dollar cash amount.
 
There is of course, a third category, in which extraordinarily clever people legally reduce their taxes to 'nil' and have instant access to massive amounts of cash at any time and there will be simply nothing authorities can ever do about it. And it has to do with things like the 'vocal ellipse' and 'bothies' and 'petit maison' and things like that. Almost always strictly European in character, accessible only to the very bright, and impenetrable by the dumb. This Web-log will be filled with the sorts of things involved and virtually never will those for whom the meanings should be excluded, ever get to understand any of it! ...And that doesn't mean, by the way, African Americans or Chinese or Asiatics are not fully involved and part of the scene; just that the origin was probably Roman from the times of Caesar.

Secrets Of International Money Laundering

Should I be surprised? You know that last post here about money laundering? Oh yeah, the figures for people visiting the site skyrocketed once again - as much as two hundred times the normal number of people who read this blog.
 
I think the point I am trying to make is that with something as sensitive as 'money laundering' it is not at all possible to blurt out real techniques - especially nowadays - because before you know it, the spill-out of technical knowledge will badly effect the conditions, the associated markets or financial pathways and their costs, IE, a whole range of things.
You have to go Deep...
 
And yet you can see there seems to be a huge amount of people who are 'interested' almost with an avidity that defies logic. It is not possible to generate money from merely knowledge about money laundering, especially not open public knowledge about it. And you're never going to find out significant things just from a quick scan of a blogpost, for god's sake. Almost no one who reads the money laundering articles here goes on and reads anything else... And yet... that is where I might secrete away some clues.
 
Government revenue services are almost never brave enough to go where the real action is.
 
Here is a link to a site that has photos and biogs of some of the world's most successful money, er 'managers:'
