RE: History of Elon Musk, Maye Musk and his grandfather the Technocrat Joshua Haldeman who was a chiropractor and flew all over the world. Where has AI already gone and how far will it go? Neuralink and DARPA's mind meld tech!
Claire Boucher [Grimes] the growing up years from Vanity Fair.
According to her little brother Mac, the Bouchers’ childhood in Vancouver was like Stranger Things minus the Demogorgon. Kids in nearly every house on the street. Secret clubs in the basement. Bikes. Vancouver is also a port city, though, with lots of crime and pretty much every drug that enters Canada. By high school, they had more or less graduated from Stranger Things to Euphoria.
The Euphoria phase was less about defiance, Grimes says, and more about DNA, particularly that of her grandfather on her father’s side, whom she describes as “crazy” and “jarringly unwoke.” “My grandpa is hard as f*_,”^ she says. He grew up in poverty. “Super antiestablishment. Teach yourself. Don’t rely on other people to teach you anything.” She says he taught her how to shoot guns when she was six. Grimes’s parents divorced when she was around 11, and her mother married a man with two sons, bringing her brother count to four. Her grandpa nursed her competitive fire.
You gonna let your brothers defeat you? Being outnumbered by the boys has never phased her since. She says he taught her to drive a standard transmission by instructing her to reverse the car to the edge of a cliff. If she lets the car roll backward, she says, recalling it now, “we’re literally going to die.”
Grimes’s grandfather is still alive and still lives like a hermit in remote British Columbia. Once he gave her some professional feedback: You really need to sex it up. You should be more like Miley Cyrus. “He was like, ‘Your career is going to be way better if you start showing more skin,’ ” she recalls. “I was like, ‘Grandpa.’ ”
Interesting as that's what early Hollywood was also about,
Pushing the Occult and Vampirism early in the movie industry before there was even Talk in Hollywood! Theda Bara and other 'Vamps' with symbolism like Marina Abramovic's Art.
