Tonight I received an email from Switzerland informing me that my old friend Allen Wright has passed on. Since anyone who was around Scientology in ANZO in the 70's will know him, this message is meant to inform his many friends.
Allen originally hailed from New Zealand. He was an Olympic level cyclist, a world class audio designer and a dedicated Scientologist. He was on the Mission Into Time voyage with LRH and acted as ship's photographer, amongst other duties. Some of the well known photographs of LRH used by the church even today were taken by him.
Allen ran his own business, Allen Wright Electronics in Sydney where he modified and repaired hi-fi and instrument amplifiers, and manufactured his own range of equipment under the Audiolab brand. At night on SydF staff he also ran the Communications Course.
In 1982 he formed a new company VacuumState Electronics specializing exclusively in valve amplifiers. This business has produced audio products regarded within esoteric high-end audio circles as amongst the best available, and he has consistently won awards and accolades from his peers in this rarified realm.
Sensing that he could no longer agree with church management in the early 1980s, Allen trained with Bill Robertson to C/S level for Ron's Org, and delivered services up to the OT levels and Excalibur to various people within Australia before reestablishing his electronics business in Germany in the mid 1990s. At one stage he also manufactured his own meters for this purpose.
Allen also had an interest in Gold exploration and used his abilities to successfully research potential goldfields as a consultant. In the past few years he moved the audio business once more to Schaffhausen, Switzerland and expanded to 3 additional staff.
I regarded Allen as a friend and mentor, and as someone to whom I could communicate anything. His passing will leave a gap that cannot be filled.
Allen is survived by two daughters, and I have contacted his ex-wife Erin via Facebook to inform her of the news.
Go well, my friend.
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

The Rio Experiment:
- ASSIGN a level of 'cultural quality' to members of a group of people
- ELIMINATE a predetermined number/percentage of people from the group
- EXAMINE the distribution of 'cultural quality' in the REMAINING group
The first Rio Experiment was done in Rio de Janeiro on the 13th of February 2011 with a group of less than 20 people using Skywork/Kraftwerk and is therefore very limited in its prognostic accuracy. Another, much larger, experiment is planned next month, same location.
The name 'Rio Experiment' was chosen not just because of the city where the first such experiment was performed but also because of the 1976 publication "RIO: Reshaping the International Order" which emerged from the activity known as the 'Club of Rome' that came to the 'result' that mankind should limit (or kill-off) the vast majority of its people.
The preliminary results of the first Rio-Experiment:
"THE DISTRIBUTION OF CULTURAL QUALITY WILL MIRROR INTO ANY NEW SUBSET CREATED BY CUTTING THE NUMBER OF MEMBERS OF THE ORIGINAL GROUP"
This means, the QUALITY or EXCELLENCE of a civilization is NOT only represented by a small elitist group BUT BY THE ENTIRE CIVILIZATION INCLUDING ITS LOWER STRATAS!!!
If verified, the conclusion is that RACISM and ELITISM are suicidal for civilizations.
For example, the negative qualities of the lower stratas of an existing society are mirrored into the elitist subgroup the moment the lower stratas are being removed.
Likewise, the POSITIVE qualities will be limited to distribution of the original culture. In numbers, assuming we have a group of 100 people and 20 of them have a 'superior' culture; if we now remove the 80 persons with 'lower' culture from the group, the remaining group of 20 will deteriorate over time (function yet to be determined) and go towards a level of 20%, just like in the original culture. In the end the NEW group will have only 4 (four) persons with 'superior' culture.
Again, the EXCELLENCE of a culture will be destroyed if the 'lower' basis is being removed. We could call this 'Elitist Incest'...
The people from the Club of Rome, whatever their TRUE motives were, should come together and think about it: REMOVAL OF THE LOWER LEVELS OF SOCIETY WILL DEGRADE THE SOCIETY OF THE FUTURE.
----------------------------------------
Addendum after first feedback:
Ed Dawson's formulation:
"A society is a hologram in which all aspects are found in any smaller part of the hologram. So not only the lower aspects of a society will appear in its higher strata if the lower are removed, but conversely if you remove the higher strata they will regrow from the lower." More >

Sofia, our little Rottherd-Shepweiler puppie (60 lbs and growing), intercepted the mailman who tried to deliver the book '50 Anos a Mil' by Lobao (with Claudio Tognolli), autographed as far as I know, but, alás, our puppie put me back in the line of readers.
'Lobao' means 'big wolf', understandable why Sofia liked the book so much. For now, she let me read only a part of the back cover:
"Brace yourself, because, from now on I shall tell a love story: wild, unusual, human, all too human, unforeseeable, and improbable, but really real: the story of my life, merged and confused with that of my generation, of our country and our time. It's not a simple narration of a distant past, dead and buried, nor a fruit of nostalgic memories. It is a story full of life, intensity and revelations, which arrived at the present and which extends itself into the future."
Buy the book here, but first make sure you got a hang of the portuguese language:

Well, another year of dreaming in the Matrix is coming up... a Prime Year it will be, the 305th prime-number year since they were nailing down this guy, what's his name.. in any case, the number of the energy of a New Civilization, yet another one, more powerful than any before.
Let's make it a GOOD DREAM, one to recapitulate in the future, one that will our grandchildren make proud of us!
Let's become DREAMERS who create and enjoy their dreams! Let us send the dreams that don't belong to us to where those dreams should be: into their own abyss! And let all those follow who installed these dreams and still are trying to install more of them! Shame on them and down the hole!
Let us become MASTERS of our dreams, and, witnessing the dream body, go for the UNBORN, THE UNCREATED, THE UNCONDITIONED! That's where WE belong to. May all of us settle there in 2011!
All the best to all of you, fellow dreamers and master dreamers.

Max & Helô, Maira & Anthony, Rottie Sophia and Shepherd Hannah, plus all the other critters around here, cats and stuff, and don't forget the birds! And thanks for all the fish! More >

Even though not (yet) listed in Wikipedia's near-complete description of prime numbers [link] , the Sandorian Prime is constantly gaining importance in today's busy world.
A Sandorian Prime is defined as:
Primes p(n) for which p(n+1)=p(n)+6 AND p(n-1)=p(n+1)-p(n)+1
Proof:
- let p!=305.
- Then p(n+1)=p(306)=2017.
- this means p(306)-p(305)=2017-2011=6 !
AND
- p(n-1)=p(304)=2003
- which means p(306)-p(305) +1 = 2011-2003 = 2017-2011 + 1 !
QED
Eurekea!
The proof in clearly in the pudding and thereby unrefutable.
Scientists are still debating the vast implications of this new discovery. The first critics don't hold back, of course.
PhD Norman Brenner from SIT put it clearly: "...this announcement was premature. The authors from MASA even admitted to having washed the formula in water. Every child knows what that means, and therefore MASA should have waited at least until p(305)+10 to announce their dubious results!"

The Sandorian Rune (Runa Sandoriana) first appeared during an MFP Session (Morphic Field Processing / Skywork) some years ago in Italy in my absence and by a person whom I don't know personally. It describes a model of the interaction between a 'governing body' and a 'governed body', for example 'Higher Self' and 'Personality', but also, on a larger scale between 'government' and 'people'. Likewise in Skywork as well as in other forms of investigations, it has been observed that the threefold 'action' of Orí, the 'Higher Self', onto the body's threefold personality structure is best being described by assertions:
"I want..."
"I can..."
"I must..."
These commands are expression of 'Finite Games' [link] , indicated by dots (...) to denote the object of the assertion. The body personality, however, is governed by Infinite Games such as imperatives with exclamation points:
"Survive!"
"Feel!"
"Think!"
If we look at the two triad from an 'archetypal' perspective, we can see the top triad representing male archetypes, and the bottom triad female ones. This gives us yet another model of how the 'archetypes' are finding their expressions on human bodies. In Ifá terminology, the top triad describes Obatala, Ogum. and Shango, and the bottom triad Yemanja/Olokun, Oya, and Oshun.
If we look at social structures, we can recognize the wisdom of division of the 'branches of governments' into legislative, judicial, and executive powers, and we insert the 'needs' of a people here.
Several implications arise: the model of the triune brain as the basis for the phenomena of the archetypes is still visible but the picture is not as clear as in other models.
This new model now gives us a clear procedure on how to 'clear' entanglements and
conflicts in social structures as well as in 'ego structures/personalities' as well.
We can directly investigate
- the 'state of affairs' AMONGST the top triad
- the conditions of the bottom triad, and..
- the connections between both
It gives us a new perspective of the 'control' of people in addition to the well known Meme 'panem et circensis" and we can see that one leg of the triad is missing, intentionally or not, the 'information' part; we can deduce that the 'media' has an even stronger impact on a nation than we thought before and is NOT only a part of the 'circensis' but an independent and vital leg of the triad governing a people.
The implications of this model don't stop here. The contemplations made here are just the beginning of an analysis which can be used to assess the amount of justice, freedom of choice, and 'liveability' of nations. More >

I invented, copyrighted, and trademarked a new symbol: the Copyall Symbol!
Shame on anyone trying to copy it and claiming it was his own!
Joke aside, I'm serious: 'inventions' which clearly arise as a consciousness from the morphic field should NOT be copyrighted, not even copylefted. It's 'owner' is the 'morphic field' itself, its knowledge can be 'downloaded' by anyone able to do so. In especially, all insights derived from methods involving group access, such 'Skywork', teamshape, Kraftwerk, Presencing (Scharmer), or Constellations (Hellinger) are clearly 'authored' by collective consciousness and should not be usurped by a single person.
The symbol is an invitation to 'freely copy by anyone' and shall apply to everything that emerges from the so-called 'morphic field', the 'global/collective consciousness', the 'brain of humanity'. To do justice to the individual creativity, we could extend a copyall-notice to
'Copyall 2010, first published by X'.
For my 'own' work, I shall change the copyleft & copyright notes for the appropriate items over time (most drawings don't have them anyway because I was too lazy to add the notices).
Examples are the 'Root Function/Radical Transform' that describes the form of changes in morphic fields(see earlier in this BLOG) and the 'Sandorian Rune', a model for 'conflict resolution' which I may publish these days.
For a modified Arial Black Font that contains the symbol, download and install this font from [link] . If you select this font in MS Word or OpenOffice and you type Alt Gr + Shift + c you can see A instead C.

Rarely did I talk about the qualities of the Orisha in public forums over the last decade. There is just too much confusion, inside and outside of the circles of Ifá and it didn't seem appropriate to throw in some words of wisdom to so many misconceptions and so much disinformation.
About ten years ago, though, when I wrote articles for the journal 'Odidere' of Chief FAMA [link] , I commented about the sacred Odu (Primal Principle) of Okanran-Disa and its signifance for the evolution of man and the creation of this world and it is now time to add a few notes to these musings.
Oxossi is known as the archetype of the tracker and trapper in the forest. Instead of engaging in open combat like Ogum or trying to be the hero like Shango, he prefers to remain unseen, stalking the prey for whatever it takes until the time to strike has come. He studies the traps within the world of mortals carefully and meticulously. In this way, he is able to find his way through the jungle and create his own traps.
In the jungle of the Digital Culture of today, he is found in the role of the 'ethical hacker'. With a deep amd profound sense for the injustice in this world and equipped with a keen & astute sense of observation, he sits behind the computer screen, watching and watching, finding a path through the net of networks, weaving his schemes to make the hidden visible and to penetrate the invisible.
At the conference on Geopolitics of Culture and Technology last week in São Paulo, Brazil, [link] we heard about the difference of the Chinese and the Western philosophy by François Jullien, Professor at Paris 7, about the wisdom of the 'Art of War' versus the blind and narcistic heroism of the Greek which permeates so much the Occidental thinking. He could as well have talked about the extremes of Oxossi combined with Obatala and the show-off-ness of Shango, The modesty of the 'wise' general versus the false heroism of the West. For Oxossi, winning the war is more important than dying on the battle field and being admired as an hero in a future as a heroic ancestor, which means as a Dead, of course.
The code of honor of Robin Hood, the prototype of Oxossi in the West, is being despised by the egocentrical leaders of today. For them, he simply is a terrorist, and they enjoy humiliating him and his followers, as exposed by Saúl Puerta Peña [link] on the said conference, reporting on the indigenous movement for independence in Peru. Any confessing hacker, even with the high ethical standards (see [link] ) is being labeled a terrorist by the pyramidal power structures [link] .
And perhaps in this way we may be able to understand Brazil's special role in today's world: a country in which the archetype of the tracker, trapper, and hacker, the Orisha Oxossi, is symbolized and incorporated in so many ways, always with a soft but unignorable influence of Oshun, from the colors of its banner to its martial arts, Capoeira, from its carnival to the unique institution of its 'motels', and, last not least, its 'LAN houses', Internet centers pervading urban jungles as well as the most remote of outbacks, from 'favelas' to 'aldeias'.
And there we see the unique importance in the 'endgame' of our civilization: the heroes of the past did NOT save this world. They are dead, we only find their once glorious names on highway signs and street corners. Ogum betrayed and deceived, seeing his technology abused by greed and lust for war, in the end, it will be up to his brother Oxossi to risk a last-ditch effort to make mankind survive this ugly and senseless game of power.
As a sidenote, if he should succeed, and we all do hope so very much, you can count on a Shango to step in to reap the honors and be applauded and revered. It has always been that way. After all, we're talking about the archetypes, the models and blueprints of this World, from its beginning to its end.
As Robert Heinlein put it so nicely "Certainly the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you; if you don't bet, you can't win." More >

What was left untouched during the 'International Forum on Geopolitics of Culture and Technology' [link] is now emerging at the 'II Forum on Digital Culture' [link] a logical and necessary extension, it seems:
The Epigenetics of Cultures, the short-term activations of parts of the DNA of the human race as a whole, is not promoted nor sponsored by governments. In the contrary, as John Perry Barlow, founder of the EFF [link] and famous as lyricist of the Grateful Dead, pointed out: most governments would do everything to ban or suppress this process. One of the astonishing events of the last decade was that Brazil 'under Lula' had the courage, even boldness, to nominate an artist and visionary as the Minister of Culture, a logical choice it would seem, but the most unlikely event in the rest of the world. We're talking about Gilberto Gil, of course, and his visions of the emerging culture, a process ripening over the years and yielding fruits now.
The new science of Epigenetics [link] 'teaches us' that the model of DNA which changes only over long periods of time, needs to be adjusted for a mechanism that activates or disactivates certain parts of the DNA already within a few generations. Without being aware, the priests of today's 'Science', in every aspect a 'religion', have granted traditional and New-Age Shamans the justification and 'scientific' foundation for their work.
If an event can activate or disactivate an entire portion of DNA, a Shaman may work exactly in this way. Enter modern technology: Memes spreading out in hours, covering the entire globe. While, with the exception of the Zeitgeist movies, whatever is spreading fast, is mostly part of today's predominate 'content': trash. But if 70 Million people tune in to watch a toddler saying what every toddler in the world could have said, IMAGINE, just IMAGINE, what if the message would be intelligent and relevant?
Witness the rise of the Shamans, not just plastic ones, but electronic ones: the Shamans of Digital Culture, capable to transform the entire world while sitting behind a computer connected to the Internet. As before, you might say, dreams we are enjoying since the 80s, but AGAIN, the world is ready now, the connections are made. Whoever pushes the buttons to accelerate what's already happening in the world, GLOBAL CHANGE, to be precise, doesn't quite matter and is likely to be unknown. 'Hackers', including the new paradigm of 'social hackers', that are tranceforming the 'morphic fields' of the human experience, they like to stay hidden. Far away from the pyramidal power structures of past and presence, they are the true Saints of our time. Blessed be, and if you meet a 'social hacker' these days, give 'em a hug from me and Anthony.
