Chaos & Creations of the Weird: Art Collection Vol. 3

In an effort to Destabilize the Coincidence Control Office,
let's cut-up the future, so that the Dreamtime can leak out
In order to storm the reality studio and destabilize language,
perception, and reality, let’s break open the mind.

I’m looking at poetry as coding.
I’m looking for source code.
I’m looking to mainline ideas, images, and visions
in order to be able to express them in ways
that speak to directly to the core
and essence of something that we already know
and that we are already connected to.

Intro to Chaos & Creation of the Weird Art Collection Vol. 3

Welcome back, this is Vol.3 of Chaos & Creations of the Weird Art Collection. Please check out: Chaos & Creations of the Weird: Art Collection Vol. 1 for the first set of Dreamtime collages and the Genesis story on how all this madness started. Also, check out: Chaos & Creations of the Weird: Art Collection Vol. 2.

A quick breakdown on what this Art Collection is all about:

The Chaos & Creations of the Weird: Art Collection is my collection of Dreamtime collages, they contain Burroughs inspired cut-ups, remix and bootleg surrealism; the editing is experimental & shamanic; the setting most times psychedelic and exquisite; and the narrative involves poetic identity dissolution, mirrors, quotes, labyrinths of infinite reflection and the Dreamtime.

As a general process of reading something (I really enjoy) I take notes, writing down on a piece of paper whatever quote that glimmers to my mind's eye. I usually just have a stack of notes laying around, never really knowing why until that strange moment when the creations of the weird sing to me, some kind of reverse Déjà vu.

Sidenote: Maybe its time that we put some music on. Here's what I was listening to, when editing and putting together this post: Larry Fisherman (Mac Miller) - Run On Sentences. Volume 2 (Full Mixtape)

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #19

Weird connections of spirits in this eternal,
ethereal view--I'll dive into the waters of the base,
guarded by the masked trinity.

The felt experience of the connection
Of our kindred spirits was primal, mystical, eternal
I have seen the truth many times
But for the first time, You saw the truth in me

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #20

The beatniks aimed at ecstasy embodied as a social form of individual transcendence. Theirs was a culture of jazz, with its spontaneity; of marijuana, arresting time and flooding the soul with pleasure (this was before the substance became the background drug of every youth culture); of flight, on the road, to the West; of the quest for the perfect moment.

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #21

When people lost their sense of awe, they turn to shock.
When they no longer trust themselves, they begin to depend upon authority.

Step back, so that people won't be confused
Teach without teaching so that people can learn.

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #22

We as a species, have been driven by memes for the last hundred thousand years,
and this has forced us further and further away from any
direct connection with the natural world.

The “Post-Truth Age” is nothing new, information has merely
been amplified and accelerated.

Originally from the avant-garde art world,
is to import ideas from conceptual art into the very heart of politics.

The aim is to undermine peoples’ perceptions of the world,
so they never know what is really happening.

Turn politics into a bewildering, constantly changing piece of theater.

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #23

The words that I use to encode my perception, unfortunately, have lost much of its moxie,
its fierceness and complicated beauty that was in it at the beginning of time

In order to be fair to the logos, consciousness is not what it seems,
it's the seamless everything, the everywhen, you know the space between

We ought to reach beyond all preconceived notions, ideology, philosophy, spirituality
because the words that can be said(written) are not the true and eternal words,
the infinite Imaginarium and the boundless everything

Netflix & Shrooms #1

Ah, shit babe?!?! How long have you fucking known me?!?! I'm always up to no good, always playing cosmic games and turning transcendental tricks. Slanging moon rocks, on the corner block, waiting for the shadow beings to turn their backs, so I can jack a couple of keys of perception, Infinity got nothing on me, I dance for eternity, and I pump the heartbeat of the universe. I laugh at the abyss, I cry into the void, I pull up the moon and bring down the sun. How about you come over and Netflix & Shrooms, we'll merge our consciousness together, play transcendental pools of infinity, just don't forget to bring over the songs of eternity...

Note: @adammillwardart left this comment, Netflix & Shrooms lol, which sparked this idea. William S Burroughs said to 'cut-up the past so the future can leak out'. At times I cut-up the present so that the Dreamtime can leak out.

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #24

Change The Way You Look

The divine is the ocean and the human being is the divine in usable portions
Throw everything into the fire. Gold is not afraid of the fire.
A new Eleusis is arising over the horizon.

Note: At this point I start to cut up words and mix them up into the collage. Inspired by @sexdeathrebirth and something James Curcio likes to say This Memes Artwar.
I began to play and experiment more with my collages. The mantra began to be This Memes Artwar, This Memes Artwar, This Memes Artwar.

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #25

A World Beyond Ours

Most people think it's far out if we get virtual reality up and running. This is much more profound than that. This is the real thing. We're going to find out what "being" is. It's a philosophical journey and the vehicles are not simply cultural but biology itself. We're closing distance with the most profound even that planetary ecology can encounter, which is the freeing of life form the chrysalis of matter. And it's never happened before-I mean the dinosaurs didn't do this, nor did the prokaryotes emerging. No. This takes a billion years of forward moving evolution to get to the place where information can detach itself from the material matrix and then look back on a cast-off mode of being as it rises into a higher dimension. -Terence Mckenna

Chaos & Creations of the Weird #26

Entropy Requires No Maintenace

Spontaneous Evolution to Utopia or Oblivion?
The Future of the Revolution, The End of Money,
the Blockchain of Civilization, and
the New Operation Manual for Spaceship Earth

Cradle to Cradle, Meditation to Meditation,
and Reality to Reality The Spell of the Sensuous

Connect, Collaborate and Create
Follow your inner Moonlight
don't hide the madness
Chaos and Creation are the
essences of everything

My consciousness has been lodge loose
And now it needs to be fixed, time to reboot

Hacking into my consciousness
reengineering my neural-nets
so that I am in control
and not some unconscious tape-loops

because,
I burn deeply for those connections
I work hard for those connections

breaking open my mind
trying to find the source code
mental programs running out of control

Where do memes come from or when and why do we say they spread like a virus? your images caused me to think a lot

thanks! at first, I felt the need to 'answer' these questions, but maybe I'll just dance with mystery.

"Language," William S. Burroughs reminded us, "is a virus from outer space." A virus operates autonomously, without human intervention. It attaches itself to a host and feeds off of it, growing and spreading from host to host. Language infects us; its power derives not from its straightforward ability to communicate or persuade but rather from this infectious nature, this power of bits of language to graft itself onto other bits of language, spreading and reproducing, using human beings as hosts.

In the beginning, was the word,
they say that the truth shall set you free
but it's the truth that entraps me

Maybe this is why Buddha told us
to quiet our drifting minds and
to subdue our craving thoughts

Maybe why the Sage told us
The name that can be named
is not the eternal Name

Free from desire,
you realize the mystery
Caught in desire,
you see only the manifestations

I am not familiar with that, shall we call it a supposition? I wasn't making the connection with language as a meme either. ....

Tangential ... .. humans have nothing at all to do with language and language with reality - wait, there is no reality - wait, reality is constructed by language - originally, from outer space ..

I believe that Chomsky's work provides a set of tools which help me to understand language, thinking, politics, sociology, psychology etc.. perhaps you are familiar with him.. he has expressed his opinion into the reasons philosophers sometimes make outlandish claims -- here

I love the collages. It's like a montage of a montage. Some strange and some beautiful. Most are beautiful and strange.
