As stated above, this video game trailer is a textbook example predictive programming. Undoubtedly, it does a stellar job in commanding audience attention by scaring the living daylights out of anyone watching. Once terrified the viewer is then assaulted by a barrage of powerful ideas that are not so subtly dropped into their subconscious mind. The main concept being sold here is that of high tech terrorism. The not so distant future will apparently be riddled with these evil doers, and there is nothing you can do about it!!!! (extra exclamation points are added here in imitation of the trailer's tone, please try to relax for a moment)
Yes, we would all do well to sit back and think about this trailer because it is a weapon in and of itself; a psychological weapon. There are many points to consider in this regard. First and foremost is the fact that we are gravely being told by military experts that there is a dangerous proliferation of killer technologies, and that said technologies are going to cause catastrophic dangers in the near future. The obvious question to ask here is: where have these technologies come from? The answer is that they are the product of US military R&D via DARPA. That makes this trailer beyond ironic. It is akin to an abusive husband's lecture to his wife in which he tells her that she is only safe because he is there to protect her. Not only is blame shifted away from the true culprit, but a justification for their further "protection" is placed in the mind of the abused. (who is also an enabler)
The premier source of high tech development on this planet, DARPA, has their own youtube channel. This is not news, seeing as how the channel was created in 2009, but I had never realized that it existed until very recently. Here are a few choice videos from the channel,
More videos featuring robots, autonomous vehicles and explosions can be viewed on the channel. I selected this set of videos because they are the sort that fly under the radar but are actually incredibly interesting, disturbing, and important. I'll keep commentary to a minimum here. In brief summation DARPA has been working on: automated surveillance systems that can understand specific human behaviors, a mass inoculation system in case of pandemics, and small scale Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.
Another quick note has to be added. Anyone who may be eagerly anticipating transhumanism has to be aware of the fact that any future technological "upgrades" to humanity will either come directly from the military, or will otherwise be old military technology that has been commercialized for mass consumption. There will be very few exceptions to this rule.
This is a quick update to let readers/listeners know what I have been up to as of late. In the past few weeks posts have been sparse here at theageoftransitions.com. Here is a list of what I am currently working on,
Much of my time has been devoted to working on the new documentary, The Age of Transitions II, which I want to complete as soon as possible. It is a large project, and will involve months of work.
A Trans Resister Radio listener recently sent me a video that they put together. The video is very cool, it takes audio from the Looking Into the Future episode of Trans Resister Radio, and adds in visuals. There is also a clip from The All-Seeing AI at the beginning. The best part of all is that there are German subtitles! Check it out,
I was very excited to see these videos, and greatly encourage the production of more. If you would like to take any audio or video material produced for this website and remix it into a new video of your own, then by all means, do so. Also feel free to simply repost videos to your own youtube channels. My only request is that you give me credit for the source material, and that you put a link to http://theageoftransitions.com in the description of the video.
Considering that we have explored the specific topic of Alchemical Dissolution in two separate articles (1, 2), I think we can confidently move on with this Alchemy in Popular Music article series. Today we are going to explore some occult messages within a very unassuming country song. From the 2004 album, Van Lear Rose...
I know what many of you (especially first-time readers) may be thinking: Occult messages in this? Why it's nothing more than an upbeat country song about a bunch of hicks living in Appalachia. To this I say yes, you are partially correct. That would be the obvious exoteric message being conveyed, but if you'll humor me I will direct your attention to quite a few points of interest that lie hidden below the surface. We're going to have to go deep down into the coal mine to discover the truth on this one.
