The Mars Effect presented by Michel Gauquelin back in 1955 demonstrated that there was a statistical signifiance of Mars showing up in key sectors in the charts of eminent sports champions. He divided the chart into 12 sectors and found that in eminent sports champions, Mars was showing up in what he called the rising sector and the culminating sector. The base rate for a planet showing up in 2 sectors of possible 12 sectors based on chance was 17%. In gauquelin's sample, Mars was showing up at a rate of 22%. More than chance, which aside from all other potential meanings, meant that Mars must have some sort of effect. This is a faith inducer.

After he tied Mars influence to a scientific potential, I took Mars and tied it to a religious signifiance. Using the English Sumerian Gematria, where the letters of the alphabet are numbered in multiples of 6....A=6, B=12, c=18, so on and so forth, I added up the letters of Mars and got 306. After simply adding 360 to 306, I got 666. Essentially Mars 360 is the revolution of Mars around the Sun and its influence humanity.

Then, I found that the position of Mars within 30 degrees of the lunar node was coinciding with the escalation of rocket fire from Gaza into Israel since 2007(actualy 2006). I discovered this in 2019. Then after discovering that, I demonstrated IN REAL TIME, that this was the case.

I went on youtube and predicted in advance 2019, 2020, and 2022 the rocket fire escalation time frames for all three years(2020, 2021 and 2022) consecutively by observing when Mars would be within 30 degrees of the lunar node. The 3rd year was a charm because before when this was unanimously considered a joke, now perhaps a handful of people are listening to this. Not alot but a long way from how this data was perceived in 2019. The fact that I demonstrated in real time had an effect.

I then tied Mars to economic significance by showing how stock market crashes occur when Mars is within 30 degrees of the lunar node. This is in volume III, only in the book version.

This is a theological development, The question is who will be the next prophet of Mars. Gauquelin sort of like an Abraham figure. I'm Elijah. And many more will come along and induce faith

The Apocalypse Guild Field Guide

[banner image]

What we are experiencing is not only an apocalypse (the revealing of truth), but it is actually the much-fabled Apocalypse (with a capital A). This is *The Apocalypse*, it’s here and it’s also right around the corner. It’s a cascading wave of unfolding which hits us all at different times and speeds, gaining momentum as it goes along. Experience is very much critical to the quality of your own personal apocalypse, whether or not it could be described as a lifting of the veil, a revelation of insight, or merely a really bad time of stress and suffering, wishing for things to go back to normal.

A large part of the apocalypse is understanding how much we have lost over time, how our deep connection and relationship with the world around us has been systematically whittled away, leaving behind not much more than a mere dead husk. I am talking about spiritual death, something which can never be known until one becomes spiritually alive (reborn, etc) and gains something to compare the past life to, and to know what has been lost.

Near the end of the last writing piece, I jumped right into the American revolution of 1776, with the Declaration of Independence, using this as a great example of a collective struggle for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Back then, they were fighting against tyranny of a foreign government, collecting taxes in a relationship of subjugation. This is the classic pattern of slavery that we see throughout our history and right up until this point in time. Through this piece we will be exploring the mechanics of spectacle, tyranny of the masses, and the alienated commodification of all life which amounts to modern-day slavery.

An estimated 40 million people, well over the entire population of Canada, is said to be outright enslaved through out the world today, but how do we define slavery? ‘None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.’ — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. I don’t have to sit here arguing semantics. The fact is that most people living on this planet have no option to stop working without dying. The pandemic will continue to show this to us, as it drags on it will become more and more of an apparent problem. Life on earth was not always this frantic, with no option to stop and smell the flowers, no option to take a break and enjoy being alive. Chasing dollars and desires, we all know the tropes. I’m going to show you what these people have been trying to tell you.

Most of us today are subject to varying intensities of what can be called modern day slavery. It is the ongoing process of alienated commodification which has led us to this point. Part of the apocalypse is certainly becoming aware of this gaping void, this hidden death trap which has been set, not by any one person, but allowed through convenience and carelessness. Part of waking up to our collective situation is to gain a vision of what it would take to become responsible for the world around us, what it would take to take care of our needs and of those around us. The apocalypse is a vision of what it’s like to be more fully alive.

In order to gain this vision, I’m giving you a pseudo-history of our people, your people. A story of what happened to your ancestors that lead to this point, and what of it can be seen reflected in your own life. It doesn’t have to be exact, just plausible enough so that you can click some pieces of the puzzle together. We are focusing again on the axial age and the transition from oral tradition, because the move towards written language holds the master key to unlocking all of what happens afterwards with regard to the commodification of all life.

If you have a feeling that something is wrong with society in the way that people are so concerned with appearances, and very shallow surface understandings of the world around them, then you’ll appreciate the origin story for this behavior. In fact it’s one and the same as that first great failure which practically created a new species out of us.

This surface-level navigation of reality is really the end result of this long road, this long process of commodification of life. It’s this surface level through which we break when we gain deep insights about our self and the world around us. I’m trying to help us orient ourselves in a history which accounts for this surface level navigation which one normally does not realize they are bound to. This accumulation of appearances is sometimes called the simulated reality, the Matrix, the Spectacle, etc.

These are matters of the gravest depth and concern, and encountering them can be very dangerous, extremely dangerous (though I would argue that not encountering them is moreso). It’s possible for these types of engagements to shake one’s reality to the core, leaving one disoriented and grasping for something solid to hold onto. In fact, one of the responses that I received from my last piece was exactly along these lines, that feelings of revelation and insight were coming with regards to the apocalypse, and it had a very disorienting and emotionally disturbing effect. We could go on about the ethics of talking about this stuff but it is truly the case that an informed consent is absolutely impossible (you can’t know this stuff without changing yourself through the process of discovery).

This work has a necessary component of inner participation, in which the reader must be looking into the phenomena of their own experience of perception. When doing so, deep insights can be triggered, and once you see some of these things they cannot be unseen. Nevertheless, I am adamant that in fact the world needs to know about this stuff, needs to go through this, or we will never have the capacity to approach the various problems that I outlined in the previous writing.

What I’m talking about is learning this skill of relationship with the world around us (and indeed even with ourselves), it can go very deep, or it can merely be imitated. We could even just call this the skill of skillfulness. To be even more clear I’m not expecting some kind of mass awakening event, however, we are certainly approaching some major thresholds. I have heard it said that a mere 10% of the population is often enough to trigger systemic change in the rest. We’re not quite there yet, but we seem to have entered a very widespread networking phase which is an immediate precursor. By the end of this writing piece we should have a pretty good understanding of the dumpster fire that is our modern world, and what new sparks of life are emerging together out of the ashes.

If you feel like you’re not in a very mentally stable place right now, or not ready to make changes in your life, then I would recommend not reading this series as this type of writing could trigger an involuntary cascade of insight which, without proper grounding exercises, often becomes a traumatic hindrance to further progress. With that being said, I would also like to offer as much of my time and attention as possible to answering any questions or concerns that you have regarding your own experiences. We have to also look to each other, to create our own support networks. There is no education that could ever prepare anyone, and needless to say I’m not a doctor or psychologist.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is in fact, the Apocalypse. We are going to establish that, first by exploring the mechanics behind the critical mistake humanity made when transitioning from oral to written culture (we lost our natural immunity to memetic cancer), second by a pseudo-history of the commodification of all life that ensued from that point, and finally by describing the current perilous conditions of our society that have resulted from our cumulative neglect. As what could be called mathematical certainties come to fruition regarding things like our monetary system, and our ecological systems (more on this in the next piece), the simplistic surface level views of the world that we hold will be forcefully ripped away from us revealing the raw consequences of our actions, and this is what we will call the Apocalypse. A judgement day, in which we do not answer to each other, but to the unchanging creator of this world (I will rationally explain this language later, don’t get your stuff in a bunch).

The vast majority of people have no clue how their own perception of the world around them works. What I’m going to describe here is something that everyone has access to, and yet most of us have been systematically prevented from realizing. You may have some feeling deep down that you were born to do something so much more amazing and wonderful than what’s been put on your plate in this life. You may feel like you’re not a robot, not a machine, not such a simple equation in a corporate database. What invisible trap has been set for humanity?

If you understand these feelings, then you intuitively know exactly what I’m talking about. You have a perceptive intuition about things that I am going to explicitly describe in an academic approach. People have since time immemorial had these intuitions, and until the dawn of the Axial Age, an academic explanation was never really available. The axial age birthed many of the modern religions, and this was done in direct opposition to the forces which could be seen acting in the world that caused this gradual commodification of life (in fact the religions all but completely succumbed to it). We knew long ago that we were about to go down this long road.

At the same time that we learned how to write down and teach each other what should never be lost or forgotten, the very lack of responsibility described caused us to lose and forgot all of that. These ancient teachings were held in some of the most popular texts the world has ever known including the bible and many other scripts, but over time, mediation away from the Tree of Life paid its cost in entropy (decay of all society). The Hail Mary of these ancient teachings are now ridiculed according to surface level appearances and not their True Message, which was a Relationship with Life itself. So long have we forgotten the substance behind appearance, that every facet of civilized life now bears the marks of alienated commodification and decay (entropy).

There are so many histories, so many people, so many places, so many stories, that there can never be a true objective account. There isn’t a single history or perspective upon which to orient the entire world with its past. This is why I mentioned the pseudo-history before. I am more concerned with conveying the mechanics of change over time of our collective reality, the change in the types of immanent experiences we have had over the past many thousands of years. Through this approach, we can uncover the hidden dynamics that were certainly at play in the past, by witnessing their effects in our own present experience.

Now, before we get into literally the secret teachings of all the ages, a quick note on delivery. With abstract and systems thinking, context is everything. It is absolutely necessary that a map or a picture be painted so that you can get oriented before we start to proceed with some deeper mechanics. Without enough context, one’s biases and assumptions fill in too many blanks to understand whats communicated here. I am trying to give your imagination as much fuel as possible here to sustain blastoff.

This is one of the most critical points in human history which we are now entering. I am making a case that this is the Apocalypse, to many people who don’t even realize that anything out of the ordinary is even happening.

We need to figure out a way to help everyone everywhere to become more alert and sensitive to the world around them, and to give more care to think about what kind of world we live in and what kind of responsibilities that means that we have. There seems to be a lot of big changes happening right now and it’s important to be able to figure out which causes are worth pursuing, how best to do certain activities, etc. Mass pain and suffering in the world is causing our collective imagination to explode in search of answers. If we can bootstrap the Guild before the general dissolution of our alienated commodity stacks, we might prevent an even greater, and ultimate suffering (a biblical “flood”).

In order to embody this change we have to be literally spending time paying attention to and interacting with our local networks. I have spoken with many people who intuitively feel this as a direction and what it means is to become more responsible for ourselves and those around us, the world around us. If the launch of the Internet is a major mark of a shifting culture, its faultline runs between a one way broadcast and a two way communication. To relate as peers is the foundation of networks, but once again we see the alienated commodity has mediated our services (servers). The fact that we are now seeing officially sanctioned narratives on our social media, and the censorship of officially wrong thoughts should be troubling.

If you have any intuition that something is wrong with the world and would like to find the deepest roots to the problem together so that we can properly orient ourselves, then keep reading on. We are currently walking through a gradual unfolding of the apocalypse itself within your experience. This is no small feat to accomplish, both on your end and on mine. You may already be on your apocalyptic journey, but we can journey together. Let’s begin with a meditation.

Allow yourself to come to rest at the end of this sentence. Stop. Breathe. Look away from the screen and be aware of your surroundings — you are in two places at once — sitting at your computer or with your phone, reading my words, and then in this shared space that we have created between us, neither here where I sit typing these words, nor there where you are reading them. You can feel the connection of those two different realities, and you can become aware of your awareness of them. Through this kind of awareness you know much more than you think. This is cyberspace.

Now.

If you’re wondering what that strange swirling distortion of light is that’s been forming within the periphery of your senses, we call it a Portal. Portals are entry points from one’s current “reality” into adjacent, tangential, or parallel realities. I stepped through a big one six years ago, and only relatively recently have learned how to recognize and intentionally use them. The reason that they seem so indescribable and sometimes hardly noticeable until pointed out is that they bend our lens of perception itself and the fabric of reality appears to shift and become unstable. Once you’ve spotted a portal it’s almost certain that you’re going to be drawn into it, but it’s nothing to be afraid of (look up grounding practices). So if reality is like a lens constructed by your mind that you look through to understand the incoming data from your senses, then a portal makes contact with this lens and augments or bends it, or sometimes causes entire portions of it to collapse (seen for pure illusion).

This particular portal is an Isomorphic Portal, that is, it’s a portal-portal, a Portal that is self-referential in nature, revealing an entryway into one’s own self, through one’s own body. It’s a point of departure from normal activities in which we are kept constantly occupied with “the world out there” or “objective material”, these mind games played in the virtual machine of a floating head that doesn’t realize its direct connection to everything around it through the body.

We call it the Sorcery of the Spectacle, all of these inbound signals, advertising and official messages, news and propaganda events and architecture which interact in very discrete and computationally exact ways with our perception of reality. Vast swaths of the population can be triggered by specially crafted signals to have precise responses. With our simplistic apprehensions of the world around us, these surface level understandings, one who wishes to control our behavior, need only create certain appearances. This level of mass control is only possible if our overall apprehension of reality is limited to appearance without any will or even skill to dive deeper into the possible meanings of any particular signal.

In order to understand the Apocalypse you have to understand the Reality War, in order to understand the reality war you have to witness it first hand on the battlefield of your mind. Watch as narratives are projected into your mind and the minds of millions at the same time. Notice the effects of warmongering, advertising, editorializing, fear and desire, aversion and attachment. When there is an official narrative projected through broadcast media, if we rely on it exclusively to form our worldview (our universe) it means that what could be called our reality tunnel is entirely mediated, and its navigation commodified. Narrative projection used in terms of public relations and manufacture of consent is a completely pervasive dark sorcery which happens surreptitiously.

If I walk through this portal will you follow me there? Will what I have to say reflect itself upon your inner world, will you take it as an invitation to experiment with your own perception of reality? Will you get lost and upset and reject the exercise entirely? Will you keep trying even if nothing special seems to have happened? Will you keep paying attention? Those who would take the blue pill have already left.This is the part where we take the red pill, strap ourselves in, and touch the mirror. What happens next?

When we were born, babies, did we know what reality is? No, but through contact with the world around us, we slowly started to learn about “things”, about what stuff is, how it works, how to get our needs met, driven by simple pleasure and pain responses. Our mother didn’t read the dictionary to us so that we knew what types of objects could be expected to compose reality. For every single thing, every type of object that exists within our reality, there is a number of actual memories of experiences in which they appear, giving you material to work with when forming a vision (imagination) of what’s possible in reality.

We all do this, it happened to all of us. We weren’t raised by dictionaries. Each noun type has appeared so many times in each of our experiences giving us a refined understanding of the possible. Each verb type, describing actions between these noun types, came from experience of the actual unfolding between types which has been categorized. What we take for real, for reality, is an ongoing process and product of direct step by step construction of narratives over time since birth. Therefore, although we have each accustomed our neural networks to largely similar training environments, giving us a sense that we’re sharing the same reality (and there is actual convergence here), our experience of meaning for each facet that we encounter is entirely unique to each of us.

The effect of reading the previous paragraphs might be an uncomfortable unpeeling of certainty that we normally find very comfortable and unconcerning. This veneer of certainty that we feel about how the world around us works is a product of natural selection. Neural networks tend to find these metastatic comfort points in the absence of pain and in the presence of pleasure (or even just neutrality), but they can conceal great dangers of an ever-changing underlying situation. It’s been said that the only constant is change itself, and this is one way to articulate the problem of clinging to an unchanging simulated reality generated by the mind. It’s only a matter of time before the disconnect with “reality” becomes so wide that disaster strikes. That’s the point we’re at with this apocalypse right now on a societal scale.

While getting into the mechanics behind all of this, a phenomenologically verifiable model will be used. In order to phenomenologically verify a model, one would have to consciously apply it as a model to their current experiences of perception and notice the results. In this case much of what we’re doing could just be called watching thoughts and noticing if their structure, their composition, seems to match up with the map provided (the Model). We can’t get into everything all at once but hopefully enough materials will be provided along the way to cross that bridge. Phenomenology is looking inward at the experience of perception, while noticing the codependent arising of phenomena which cause the experience of categorical thought (ontology), and the real-time modification thereof (epistemology), literally the ongoing projection and modification of reality.

Meme wars of the illuminati (and judgement day is now)

Recent post from this series for context:

My plan to save the world from perpetual slavery and win the meme wars (not a shitpost)

The most difficult battle of my life. Words fail me over and over again. This almost became a massive shitpost describing my experience and situation, but I trimmed out thousands of words for great justice. I intend to continue with more specific details which may enable others to begin replicating the behaviors that our network has pioneered. It took a lot of writing to get to this point where you might be able to recognize what we are doing and participate.

I have now expressed the importance of the individual to the society which emerges from their behavior towards others. When it comes to organization, we have explored two fundamentally different stacks we can use to meet our needs. The network stack (symmetric/asynchronous) differs from the hierarchy stack (asymmetric/synchronous) by the authority of the individual. Decentralization is a process of restoring responsibility (the ability to respond) to the individual through the revival of the network stack.

Self-awareness is an absolute requirement to network behavior because each individual has to act autonomously under their own authority in the context of peering with others. Authority to action is granted by divine sovereignty to all of us who simply realize it. A hierarchy may have a king, but a network is made up of kings. Both operate side-by-side and overlap, but as a matter of control, autonomous behavior has been stripped from our culture.

I have been waiting a long time for this moment. Partly cause I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing. Manifesting creation is a very interesting activity, there are many factors and it can be analyzed and stacked in layers or spheres as in celestial bodies. The medium is the message, everyone interprets signals differently according to their own web of meaning. I have laid enough foundation that I can reasonably expect others to pick it up and peer with me.

I wish to be as straight forward with you as possible about what I am writing. Many have asked for conciseness. Many have asked for specifics and plans. I fully intend to do this using the protocols which I have described earlier. Protocols can provide material evidence of immaterial order. They can be used to quickly convey meaning. From this point on we will be assuming that the reader is interested in consciously experiencing and expressing network behavior.

The most notable effect of awakening is realizing our direct connection to existence and our divine sovereignty. This birthright is the key to liberty, because without an internal authority to balance the external authority, slavery will result. Liberty is the reason for decentralization of power and individual responsibility. The will to navigate our own lives is systematically put to sleep by the dream state. [The #seeker protocol instructs the individual to recover and cultivate their divine spark.]

What happens when you get a whole bunch of these awakened individuals together? A whole different kind of society is possible: the society of being. [The individual is instructed to continue their existing societal and life support duties while searching for network solutions to meet their basic needs. #transition] [Basic needs are a special form of motivation which are critical to survival. We will use #formofsuffering and #formofjoy as the discrete units of human motivation to create society together.]

Authority is equal between peers in a network, and the information flow is governed by memetic selection. Choosing to share or copy information is an act which enables the information to spread and exist among many, beyond the individual, or even the two peers involved in the transfer. The individual can be seen as a database for cultural information, and all the pieces come together to form what could be called an operating system. Its very convenient for me to use computer networking terminology for what I am about to describe because its all the same.

An operating system hides many layers of abstraction from the user, and provides an interface which can be understood. If we can become self aware of our programming and the reality of our existence, we can engage and manipulate it directly. Genes express life and memes express culture, and there is competition and selection (evolution) happening at every layer. What makes us more than machines simply executing our genetic and memetic code is self awareness.

I am attempting to construct and convey a meta-framework for that which is already happening whether we are aware of it or not. In taking a meta-perspective we can manipulate the system as engineers and directly take control of our own culture at the individual level. [Become aware of the mechanics and ability to consciously create and select memes #metameme.] [Use the metameme protocol in conjunction with the seeker protocol to create and select #wholesomememes.]

We are already meme machines. We all have the ability to socially replicate culture, but through our ignorance we replicate the culture which enslaves ourselves. We don’t realize how our centering on the false-ego self has alienated us from each other, forming meaningless and cancerous culture. The dream state relies on hosts who are not aware of their own abilities and their own authority. We are told that we ultimately have no free will to create the future that we imagine. We are kept ignorant to preserve the dream state machine.

There is no fight to take to the streets, no war to wage across the seas, no flesh to hang up from the trees. The entire battle takes place inside the mind of each individual. This is the reality. Further efforts to fight against the dream state will only continue to validate and empower it. It would be nice to simply walk away from it, but as a matter of control, our survival has been made to depend on it. There is no greater threat to the state of modern day slavery than an individual who would not be dead without it.

Keep in mind that every effort to escape has always resulted in adaptation and recapture of those efforts. The dream state is a massive distributed intelligence made up of individuals who are deeply dependent on and twisted by it. Through it we make every effort to cancerously expand into every possible opportunity for control, and like crabs in a bucket, rip on those who invalidate it by trying to escape.

We can not simply pass along instructions for liberty, but if it is to be sustained, the individual must be deeply self aware of their own existence and connection to reality. This will allow them to make judgement of memes in the full context of reality. With this ability, an individual may examine their own behaviors for those which are ultimately harmful to themselves, and those which are wholesome. [Examine existing relationships and organizations and institutions to explore how our needs might be met in a network (self-contained hologram) context. #socialalchemy.]

It is not necessary that everyone be awakened to existence in order to participate in this eschatological unfolding. Although we all have access to this highest order within us, it takes a great deal of personal development to fully participate. Anyone who has already been disillusioned to the dream state should be able to understand the reason for what is now happening, and share in its fruits. Even those who simply don’t want to die as the systems of centralized control collapse should be willing to entertain the thought of network based cooperation.

The only reason we cannot choose to do what we want with our lives is because we are hopelessly dependent on foreign centers of power for our survival. Decentralization brings the means of production for meeting our needs closer to our local sphere of influence, and ideally, within the direct responsibility of the individual. Direct self-sufficiency for meeting needs was once a full time job, but considering automation technology, it could be much easier than your current job. Keep in mind this is just an ideal to work towards, not an expected result.

In bringing the means to meet our needs towards our own local community, we reduce the ability for foreign exploit of our helpless dependencies. I am not talking about small business here, I am talking about community. Community based on symmetric relationships and holographic organization where each individual has full authority to view and act upon the network. If we can augment or replace our existing hierarchies, which funnel our capital off to foreign centers of power, with networks through a web of trust, a golden age of prosperity would result in those communities.

That hierarchies are said to be efficient is a deceptive myth. They are efficient at centralizing profit and power, that is all. The fact that we have no alternatives to rely on these days to meet our needs is an invitation for these power centers to enforce scarcity and poverty for further control. The central banking system for example is a major drag on all economic activity. The patent system is a major drag on all innovation. The schooling/certificate system is a major drag on the free flow of knowledge and work. The national defense system causes war and destruction for its own sake. Healthcare is just sickcare. And who can build a family with such damaged and narcissistic culture. We are in a massive depression caused by our institutions.

It seems like there is a lot of work to do, and there is, but if we each do our part, the network effect can easily reverse this process of captivation. I don’t have all, or even a lot of specific answers, but collectively we certainly do. What I am describing here is a way to take back our culture and to allow it to evolve through memetic selection. In this way we can test and spread the best way to do anything. We should be using our information networks to access the absolute pinnacle of culture for any particular application. Why are we wasting our time in isolation from each other?

I have derived the network stack from existence itself. What I am describing here is not intended to be taken as an assertion. Just try it yourself in your own brain if you want to verify or improve on it. The individual has many needs, and can meet them in many ways. Each way might have its own organizational structure if it involves more than one person to accomplish. By taking the responsibly of cultural authority, the individual participates in memetic selection and brings the principle of evolution to the shaping of our culture.

In this conceptual model each individual has what we can call a database in their brain which is able to hold distinct elements or concepts of culture. These little pieces originate within the imagination of an individual, and after expression, pass memetic selection through at least one other individual. I am specifically focusing on the information flows which support the organization of individuals to meet specific needs. The trick is figuring out how to do what a traditional corporation does, but without the parasitic and heavily inert management structure.

In a corporation, information is guarded and compartmentalized so that control can be maintained and advantage turned to profit. In training, your supervisor might give you a number of guideline sheets for how to accomplish specific tasks. These are protocols. They contain general instructions which can then be applied to specific cases. Your boss, using his authority over you, instructs you to use these protocols to perform your duties. You don’t have to know why you are doing it, you just have to do it.

Organization with open network principles is vastly different. Its up to the individual to cultivate their own capacity to accomplish any work. The work is also self-directed, and so, the individual has to become their own manager. Information is not guarded behind closed doors, but instead is shared openly in the hopes of attracting others to the work. Operational information including the organizational structure itself flow by memetic selection, replicating throught the network.

Memes are difficult to nail down. We can call it a unit of culture which is able to replicate across multiple minds. This structure in the mind is replicated through exposure to the physical manifestation of that structure, such as a particular image with text on it, but what is happening in the brain is not the image and text itself. There is an underlying meaning which the mind can intuit, a reason for spreading it further. If done right, memes can be used to convey real meaning between individuals, beyond the content of expression itself.

What’s actually happening in the real world is a big mess, because each individual has their own concepts and their own access to information. The meta-analysis that I am performing here is an attempt to pull out general operating principles of network behavior so that we can better understand and engage it with a higher capacity. I am potentially talking about everything we do of our own authority directly with another individual who is also exercising their own authority to peer with us.

Our work could have been replicated for a long time now. Every behavior we have exhibited has had the potential to be understood by others and copied, but it largely has not for a few reasons. One is that we don’t have a massive reach or exposure, our network is still small. Another reason is that our work is difficult to understand in its current form. We are now at a final stage of manifestation where we make it easy to understand and share and therefore pass memetic selection out into the wild.

We know what hierarchical organization looks like at a planetary scale, but what does network organization look like at such a scale? Instead of a parasitic management tree concentrating power and authority at the top and reaching down to ensnare all, everyone is potentially their own manager working horizontally with others. Instead of requiring secrecy (which is becoming increasingly impossible) and doing everything behind closed doors, the information has to be spread openly to give everyone the opportunity to fully participate.

Activity in the network organization happens asynchronously, meaning that any work to be done can be completed by any capable individual. There is no external authorization of the work needed, it simply gets done. Neighbors alert each other to a new potential threat to their environment – work done. A piece of open source software is created and shared – work done. Anon comes out of nowhere and drops a perfect comment at the perfect time – work done. You try to meme an awesome way you figured out how to do something – work done.

Culture is social replication of behavior. Exercising individual authority and autonomy to meet certain needs is a behavior which can be shared. More specific behaviors which actually get things done can also be shared, and compete against other ways of doing that thing to find the best ways. Memetic selection enables the evolution of our culture. These behaviors first originated from the imagination of an individual, and then physically manifested as cultural experiments. These material artifacts of expression can be generalized into protocol material for assimilation and replication by others.

This process has been quite elusive to pin down and express. Our specific instance of the TEAM protocols, for example, is not the protocols: it is our network, our guilds, our chat rooms, our resources, which were all experimentation to test for viability. Once we knew that our behaviors were functional, we began to codify them into general instructions which we call protocols. The purpose of this is so that our behaviors can be easily applied by others to form new territories completely independent of our particular work.

The protocols are meta-culture, they are generalized instructions which attempt to describe culture so that others can easily replicate it. This protocol framework does not prescribe what culture or ways of doing things are the best, it simply attempts to make the process of cultural evolution explicit and in the open. This is the context that allows any little piece of work done by an individual to flow out to the rest of the network on a peer to peer basis without the need for a central authority. This is a framework for explicitly cultivating collective intelligence and converging upon stateless solutions to the problems of mediated authority.

The framework is like a common language that we can all speak to translate our individual efforts into something that can be understood by others who are confronting the same problems. The framework is already compatible with existing network behavior, because it is derived from the geometries of individual authority. This language will allow us to identify all of the existing efforts towards individual autonomy, authority, and liberty, and bring them together into one shared context. Every social effort can be described in the context of this whole, and can easily be assimilated by others for replication.

We organize these efforts into a system of guilds which are a container for the human needs that motivate them. These needs are articulated as specific forms of suffering and joy which are addressed in the context of the guild. A guild may list many forms of suffering or joy which seem to be within the scope of the guild. Keep in mind that a guild is not an external synchronous state to which one can belong, it is a shared context for cooperation and sharing of related culture.

When specific work is being done to manifest some structure into existence we call it a project. If this work is guided by existing protocols, then it is simply cultural replication of existing order. If the structure being manifested into existence is a pioneering cultural experiment to test for viability, then the next step after success is to generalize the activities into protocols which can be implemented by others elsewhere. As I have mentioned before, there are already so many existing works of decentralization out there, and we can mine it all for protocols and spread these behaviors, bringing them out of obscurity.

A project often requires the context of more than one guild to proceed, but it should have a primary guild to be listed under. It is possible for one person to take on the roles of multiple guilds to complete a project, however it is more likely that multiple individuals will come together to collaborate on the project. One individual may lend their expertise to many projects.

Protocols are general behavioral instructions for humans to interpret and implement in the environment. This is a framework for explicit memetic behavior. The technology infrastructure that we develop to support decentralization also spreads in a memetic fashion, which is why is has to be free and open source. If our technology also behaves in this way, it will be subject to evolution via memetic selection. It is important that we learn to recognize and replicate free and open technology which we can use to free ourselves from arbitrary mediation and exploitation.

An individual interested in taking responsibility for meeting their own needs either directly or through local community can use this framework to share their discoveries and collaborate with peers who also have the same interest. The entire framework is contained within the individual, enabling complete autonomy. Ideally, the technology we use will become completely disintermediated, allowing the whole thing to happen directly between peers, even the communications technology (offline contact).

This is a complete paradigm shift which may be difficult to comprehend, but note that it can coexist alongside existing technology which demands mediation (until its obsolete). Years ago, I theorised an internet without servers, where data spreads via memetic selection across a web of trust directly between peers (even offline). I see the same respect for individual sovereignty and the principles of nature built into projects like Ceptr.

We have a full network stack now coming into view and if we value liberty we should select for these memes in our environment and bring order to the chaos and unconsciousness wrought by the dream state. For those who have woken up to reality, these writings may provide an orientation to the work that logically results. Judgement day is now: recognize the work of your fellow human beings, and recognize the memes which enslave you. Together we will rebuild the society of being.
