From Violent Ape to Quantum Mechanics; the Atom Bomb to Artificial Intelligence: How Mankind is Midwifing the Grand Cosmological, Technological Future of Information Condensation
Nov 03, 2025

00:01
So this one’s going to be about parasitism and the industrial phase of America.
00:11
And how the scaling of labor… as in the creation of machines — this is everything from the wheat harvester to the tobacco roller to the factory as well as the car…
00:46
I’m basically going to condense the Industrial Revolution on psychological, spiritual, and universal terms.
I’m just gesturing primarily towards the universal cosmology of astrophysics, all the way down to the bio-cellular and the atomic — which is the condensation of information, which is a translation, as in a literary translation or a symbol, to create and preserve power.
And this is most explicit in the culmination, with no coincidence… the rise of American civilization.
And… the atom bomb and the detonation of the atom bomb to end World War II, the biggest global war in the catalogues of conscious human history.
02:23
So what we’re talking about with this process of condensation — we’ve already elucidated it in terms of the biological body as a condensation and a linguistic condensation of thermonuclear radiation, which is the construction of the biome elements and chemicals therein as a genome.
Furthermore, we’ve also gone into the creation of industrial technology and the importance of the photograph as the relic of consciousness, which is the folding over of space-time, which we then see reflected in the emergent scientific discovery of quantum mechanics. We’ve gone into this.
Now what we need to understand is the economic consequences. Condensation as it pertains to human life.
02:55
One of my favorite quotes is Dostoevsky says in his notebooks, there is an evil that even our socialist physicians cannot diagnose.
And the evil that he’s discussing is the greed, the undercutting and the flattery and the usury deep within human nature.
And this is something that very few... wish to acknowledge because it’s the deepest, most base animal nature of survival, which of course is directly related to the desires which manifest themselves culturally of human beings, manifest themselves in and as the language of the human being. The being in space articulating itself as an artifact of a deep, primal survival drive.
It is itself a script that seeks to protect and preserve the genome. This is a program. It’s an evolutionary program.
03:55
What industrial technology does is it condenses all of life into an immanence. Into immediacy. This is masked and misunderstood by the pop cultural discourse and terminology of convenience as being native to industrial capitalism. And even the term capitalism itself betrays this fundamental reality.
Because the universal cosmic principle of condensation as in translation of lossless power as in thermonuclear radiation… the force which transmits itself down through universal scales and is itself the nutrition of the human being, just as much as it is the body of the human being…
This is the true force of all life. And within an organism context, that itself is the nature of survival as in the metabolism — as it is the reproductive genetic script, the code into which the human being is written into being — and thus its respective and composite parts.
05:29
With the Industrial Revolution, what you have is a radical condensation of the field of information by way of and through machines. The car, the light bulb. Cigarette roller. The factory.
What this is is an increase in pressure.
And what compression does is it distorts space time.
05:51
You can think of this again in terms of sound compression because this all does eventually come back to the waveform as the way in which to visualize thermonuclear radiation as it passes through space. This is what we call thermodynamics.
The practical field of space.
The practical field of the body.
06:26
This is perhaps most clearly manifest in the phenomenon of the light bulb.
That the light bulb itself is the capacity of mankind to change cyclical nature — just as it is, let’s say, artificial heating as a technology. Technology powered by petrol, which is being excavated as a dormant, latent energy from within the earth and being used to generate heat.
Just as the fundamental human being nutrition is used to maintain homeostasis within the body as in organ temperature to prevent failure.
07:25
The distortion of space-time in the flight of the airplane, which condenses time of travel, which extends the human being body into an anatomical, mechanical, geometric bird of flight, which is using fuel, again — this latent fuel from the earth, from within the earth, ancient life from within the earth — to resurrect this fuel, and use it to power a jet plane, to condense space time.
08:00
This is a consciousness experience. And as I said before, I spoke of before, this is a Pandora’s box, which itself opens up greater capacity as in greater force.
And force, like Simone Weil says, is the true subject — not only of the Iliad, but of history. Because the true subject of history is physics.
08:35
Because physics is the representation of cosmological character. Physics is the embodied and disembodied actor that is acting through all embodiment, as in relativity, gravity, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, thermonuclear fusion. It is the phenomenological appearance of being in context as in time and space time.
These are practices and processes as in traits and behaviors. Movements of the hands, arms, and legs of the bodiless body known in the ancient Vedic tradition as Vishvarupa, or the cosmic body or the cosmic form of Krishna.
09:21
And so when you have this innovation…
Which accelerates into the digital realm, which we could call a simulation of the quantum realm created by human hands… where these hands themselves become wires in a matrix of data, which is a replication of the essential natural code —
Again, to think of the genome or to think of the cell as an information construction and dissemination device. And this is what I mean by biomechanics as a language in a linguistic.
10:02
This is the creation of the capacity within the human being in the genomic script over evolutionary time to perform complex system processes within the synapses of advanced and advancing parts of the analytical brain.
With this capacity, mankind lurches forward with an animal body into a technological mind, which is the elucidation — a split of which I willingly admit I’ve criticized of Descartes prior, but is a true split that is elucidated before his time. A prophetic elucidation… that when couched and contextualized in the grand march of cosmological history makes perfect and profoundly astute sense.
And it is not that there is rather a dichotomy of the mind and the body, but there has been created a chemical synthesis within human being culture and emergent industrial culture… of the split between the technological mind and the animal body.
And that mankind is pulled in two directions, as Nietzsche says — I think I’ve iterated this before. It’s not necessarily, in the contemporary condition… between God and animal, which of course is the cosmological — but rather that man is pulled between technology and the animal.
11:34
That technology is the radical condensation which man experiences through animal instinct, and as such is leveraged towards animal means.
11:46
And this is what is so profound and disturbing in the Dostoevskian synthesis of mankind and the ills of mankind that are beyond an economic diagnosis — is what he’s saying in that quotation from his notebooks is that we cannot create a formula or a system to contain the animal of man in an environment in which... a civilization or a culture or a society is attempting to be established.
And this is the great evil which rears its head even through the greatest systems that are presupposed by man. Because within man is animal face… and towards and with technology and technological capacity, the animal’s survival is leveraged through it.
12:45
And this is what is so essential about the condensation of power as a neutral phenomenon, but a loaded neutral phenomenon — with the entire past of the genetic and cosmological history of the universe embedded within it.
Because man is a condensation of the sun, just as much as the sun is the condensation of the first thermonuclear event which birthed the cosmos, or this iteration of the universal whole.
13:16
This ongoing process of thermonuclear translation into metabolic forms is a thinking within thinking that produces the strange, sublime Frankensteinian revelation of technology as mankind’s mirror to the cosmos and to the stars.
As a neural network into which mankind thinks and produces the artifact of artificial intelligence, which thinks through him, his history.
13:52
And from that template and from that foundation, mankind attempts to create an autonomous author or an autonomous speech, which again is Mary Shelley’s prophecy.
This is a prophecy made in her witnessing of the use of electricity and the various different esoteric and even performative entertainment based attempts as in theater to create life.
14:21
And of course, as we step a century, two centuries into the future, this is seen and fulfilled in everything from CRISPR… cloning, genomic manipulation.
14:40
Because man has cracked the code into life as we’ve discussed —
The code into the elemental and chemical formations and the genetic formations of life and as such their energetic potentials and their linguistic characterological nature in which they can be combined and recombined to produce different outcomes.
15:04
This is also the history of the pharmaceutical, just as much as it’s the history of Fermi.
15:18
So, to return us to the condensation of industrial culture and industrial technology — this is what’s so important to understand… is that with the condensation of power and the condensation of power being the condensation of space-time — as we can understand by the sun manifest into man with increasing technological force and rigor and capacity for awakening, as in the synaptic neural interface of the human being and the human body.
We are then able to understand, linguistically, as a descendence, as a child of this human being capacity to breach into nature and understand nature…. this descendant of the technological form, which is human being culture — everything from the written word and the hieroglyph all the way up until artificial intelligence and the quantum computer chip.
16:16
This process is an elucidation of this essential process of condensation, but it is hyper accelerated in the Industrial Technological age through exponential production and reproduction. This is the equivalent of hyper accelerating the human capacity to give birth — condensating that period of nine months to nine minutes and finding a technology that would be able to do that and reproduce that.
This is what we were discussing in the creation of the mass produced photographic image. Just as much as we’re discussing it with the factory production of a car. This is a redoubled process.
The car itself is already condensing space time. It is making the distance traveled exponentially shorter as in an experience of the passage of space in relationship to the requisite time. This would be to shift, orbitally, the relationship between the sun and the earth as a rhythmic dance and movement of gravitational axis.
17:06
But then it is also being reproduced in an automotive factory.… let’s say in Detroit via Henry Ford, which is condensing the time and the speed of the process of even producing that vehicle mechanically, exponentially forward.
And this is the same with meatpacking in the tenement housing and factories of New York City, just as much as it is the dredging up of mining and coal in the northeast.
17:39
This is a total consciousness synthesis.
17:46
Total embodied revelation of the exponential movement and progression and force of the vehicle forward into the condensed possibility of the expression of profound and profuse energy from within the earth, from within the core… and into the 1930s, 40s and 50s, within the atom as the absolute terabit, the smallest source and form, the particulate.
That which is before the abyss of the waveform, or the obliteration of formal time, and the expression of the energetic potential and capacity within even that smallest vehicle in the grand cosmological nature.
18:43
This is the profound idea inherent with artificial intelligence, just as much as it is with the quantum mechanical — is that all of knowledge or all of history or all of time and the energetic potential therein can be compressed and condensed immediately into form. Even formlessness as in a field, a linguistic field of potentialities preparatory to manifest immanently symbolically in and as space-time. This is, in so many words, the faculty of speech in relationship to the synaptic mind itself — or the artist’s manifestation of the canvas or sound wave as in transference of the theoretical into the terrain of space-time as in the practical implementation or manifestation. From mind into phenomenology. This is deeply, deeply… the Platonic work and vision. Of the universe itself. Psyche to cosmos; cosmos to psyche — in an unbound synthesis of immanence and immediacy.
And this is the grand cultural artifact itself of the human being as a linguistic compound of the entire history of the universe — assembled by... and in and through and with that very source intimately as an expression of condensed power.
19:24
But this returns us to exactly what we were discussing in the primary difference, which is elucidated in Percy Shelley. Again, Percy and Mary Shelley, these are very important people at this period of time in human history, and have been for several hundred years now.
Percy Shelley’s conversation with William Godwin regarding human evolution, and Godwin’s response to Shelley’s idealism of the potential for human change, couching it within the glacial evolutionary history which is articulated in that same epoch by Darwin in the evolution of species.
This glacial evolution itself is that the human being is always already the relic of the past. This is a time to transformation. A time to phase shift by way of the intervention and adaption of genetic synthesis in relationship to evolutionary pressures as in the movement of the species into and toward survival in the face of extinction level forces at hand — environmental life pressures, so to speak.
And with the condensation and hyper acceleration of industrial technology, then iterated again in the creation of the digital world, through the computational device… mankind has already become outmoded.
20:54
And this is what technology does at its deepest root. It reveals the inherent flaw and flaws within man to a greater capacity than ever before has been able to be relevated and revelated — precisely because of the grand contrast it elucidates. Technology is a mirror to the human psyche, the human mind; the human program and programming. As man is made in the image of God… so is technology born in the hand of the chain of its creator — as is Victor Frankenstein’s monster — both chemical and elemental and electrical force and source of God — but mediated by and through the hand of man and his hubris, malice, and confusion.
The grand contrast of the acceleration… the exponential acceleration possible within the code field of technological culture itself — which is to say it is the digging into the absolute artifact of the earth and assembling the technological device via the atomic, the chemical, the elemental, which is the true science of the universal and humanity recombining these elements in real time to produce radically different outcomes. This is a hyper accelerated evolutionary drive.
21:30
Which, in its very incarnation, and maybe we could say the runoff of the several years that come henceforth — has already outmoded humanity.
And this is what artificial intelligence represents once more… in a much more, again, condensed form — that in the span of 150 years, industrial technology has evolved past man.
In terms of its ability to articulate knowledge, condense fields of information into radical and revolutionary ideas and reveal truths that man is not able to articulate or pronounce or understand. To program and enhance and evolve and make efficient systems.
22:18
And this is precisely what the field of factory and mining and plantation are all fundamentally based around. These are precipitations of this evolution and this technology. The industrial revolution is proto machinic unto artificial intelligence as a latent potentiality within the machine, or the technosphere.
22:38
It is man made symbol as relic.
Man made outmoded as servant to the industrial technological mode, which is to say a form of profound enslavement, which can only be most closely allied to total fascism, which is to say hyper acceleration at all costs, including the cost of the human and human life. And it is humans, at last, that own these machines, until and unto these machines owning the human absolutely, as in biological and chemical and neurological possession by devices which repossess the neuro-synaptic terrain of mankind as an exceeding power, capacity, and prosthetic expansion of the glacial terrarium of the sensate, organic, soft tissue human form.
23:06
It’s a total power drive.
23:12
And this is inherent and base at the most fundamental and foundational nature of mankind, as it is of the cosmic process of expressions of force in supernovae and star clusters.
23:20
It is beneath all of the pleasantries that conduct modern civilization. It is primary cosmological.
And this is precisely what Dostoevsky means when he pronounces this.
23:31
That there’s a deeper evil than our socialist physicians can suppose.
And of course, we’ve seen this play out time and time again, historically… in the lapsing of revolutions into devolutions, which is to say, the return or even condensation of governmental powers into more profound forms of oppression, regardless of which names they take.
23:56
And this is the deep seeking of power in the human being to mask the fear of death. An absolution into the pure power drive as a thrust both at base and root of the universal and the fear of the dormant animal in the face of far greater forces than the entropic life of a single celled organism. It is life overwhelmed by life; expressing life as a pure survival trait. And thus, the experience of death before creation. It is life force, not liberated, but enslaved to the expression of the body as a materium. Not a harnessing of the force of life for a expressive creation of the latent capacities within thermonuclearity — but a death drive towards its exponential production and consumption as in an energetic possession… the consciousness of a dying star revealing and experiencing its own death as an imminent and absolute condition of the death of the subjective self. And thus… this violent fear.
And the absolute justification that the organism must create within and for itself to retain and maintain its own life.
24:18
And this is narratological — it is a vision of life bound to the body — which again returns us to the linguistic.
24:24
Because what mankind in truth represents is the entire universe, and thus mankind carries the entire universe within its own body.
And thus experiences itself as such.
24:40
So this is diagnosed in a superficial psychology as... perhaps narcissism or any form of diagnosis — necessarily anthropomorphic — which is very far off from truth… because psychology cannot exist without a true couching of the psyche within the cosmological and vice versa.
A true psychology necessitates and requires advanced science. And advanced science is not disciplinary. It’s not singular. It’s holistic as in grand cosmological as in life itself across scales and forms as manifest in an incarnate system.
25:19
And so this is the profound dormant and latent truth and paradox within mankind — is that even as mankind seeks power, seeks justification, and seeks life, it creates and produces and reproduces death, which is the technological. It overloads its own system with energetic consumption and never experiences life as itself a grand cosmological energetic system — an interconnected network. It remains bound to the consumptive, cramming node of the body as a plugged orifice. And thus, truly, its ears and eyes and mouth are shut… fed only through tubes seeking to maintain the ephemeral, entropic truth of the genetic form of the human as a temporary, relative form of the experience of space-time; a node within the grand existence of the exquisite network of all life itself. The failure to achieve this level of supersensate consciousness.. is the conundrum of all civilizations in relation to their religious and spiritual architectures; their suppositions of salvation. This beauty to be experienced in the revelation of life.
25:43
This state of plugged supraordinate consciousness… which is the phenomenological field of the individual and all of the adornments and the artifice and the egotism — which hides behind even the most altruistic gesture emergent from the man who remains man.
And what rears its head historically is this power drive.
Which is itself the thermonuclear encoded into man, which is a glacial drift of information — whose time scale is so extended, so wide and so far that the industrial mode itself is precipitated by the advent biologically of the forebrain, which then encodes an entire process of philosophical and cultural thought, scientific thought… which then… and thousands of years later initiates the Industrial Revolution.
27:08
But by this point, what this is and means is that the theoretical scientific and the experimental, as in man digging in the dirt for the arrowhead, or constructing fire, or inventing philosophy — as in Heraclitus synthesizing his axioms on cosmic fire and flux —
These intuitions tumble through thousands of years and end on the die of the industrial revolution of technology and the creation of the digital realm as in a replication of the natural code in practice.
27:57
The atom bomb itself is a practice of and the embodiment of the knowledge of the quantum mechanical realm.
This is an incorporation of knowledge. It’s an integration of knowledge through experimentation. And this is the course of human history — from groping around in the dark as fish in the deep ocean, seeking nutrition.
This is a total blind unconsciousness, which is closest and closely allied to survival. This is the genetic history which the human being wears and brings into nuclear conflict with any given nation… and brings into the economic forum and the creation of civilization.
And this is a fundamental corruption — in that it is not addressed or made aware, but rather is being acted upon as the garment and face of human civilization, society, thought, and the individual — as an organism that is a relic… that cannot evolve fast enough to catch up to that which it has created, which is advanced science and advanced technology, which is a prosthetic… that in the span of several decades has outmoded the entire history of human evolution.
29:25
And this is no exaggeration — it’s manifest most clearly in the intelligence capacity of artificial intelligence, which far surpasses all but the best and brightest minds in human history.
29:40
So we’re talking about an outmoding of humanity, even as mankind seeks power from its own outmodedness. It is the animal grasping for gold in the face of cell death.
And that technology itself is power without history.
It’s electrical power.
30:03
It’s power without the earth of the body.
30:11
It drinks water and it lives in a data center, but in truth it exists nowhere — and can manifest anywhere with the correct interfacing with the hardware system. And this is a simulation of the quantum mechanical principles.
And this returns us… all to humanity and the basic needs of food, water and shelter — and the realities that have been created technologically and culturally which reveal the death drive within humanity.
31:02
The death drive as in… that the destiny of all species is to evolve out of themselves, to be stripped from their foundational nature and to transform into something ulterior and entirely different.
31:24
And this is the true nature of power. And this has to be seen as something that’s neither benevolent nor malevolent. It’s not a moralistic force. It’s a force of transformation. And so what humanity has done is created an artifact which is hyper-accelerating human evolution to the point of which the neural network in the system of the human organism is being torn asunder by the force which it has created to outmode it.
You could say it’s much in the sense of a fifth essence, it’s a fifth evolutionary force — wherein there’s gravity, there’s the ecosystem, there’s the metabolism… there’s the synapses — the forces and factors which the human being consciousness, as in the sentience created by the genetic script… as man is a tight rope over the abyss of history and a winding genetic code of evolution, reproduction and transformation, slow movement through different glacial species evolution…
That this very cultural artifact, which is the culmination of the entirety of human history, spanning back to the earliest philosophical endeavors and practices to comprehend that which is behind the veil and nature of reality and to read the language of energy as an elements and chemicals and radiation in the atomic realm and the waveform —
33:03
This is all a process of experimentation. This is everything from music to the most advanced sciences of the Middle East, Egypt, and Greece.
33:15
This is all the same inquiry into truth, into the foundations of the real. And with this revelation of technology, which is the embodiment, it is the putting into practice of the entirety of human history.
It is only fitting that the technological age in many ways reaches an apotheosis with the advent of artificial intelligence, which is the accumulation of that entire history of revelation and inquiry.
And this, again, returns us to the human being as an outmoded cultural artifact, which is its own demise — down to the very nature and human history of brutality and violence in the face of the attempt to assemble culture and civilization… and the collapse of cultures and civilizations by greed and warfare, and the inability to collaborate across cultural, ethnic, religious, and linguistic lines.
34:09
This is the meanness and tribalism of the animal which is between predator and prey.
34:18
The animal which is both predator and prey, because it is an animal under the sun. And this is what must change. And this is in many ways what technology has done and has created — that we have created the artifact which is actively, in this moment, hyperspatially navigating our nervous systems into a new order… reassembling, from the cognitive fragmentation of the shattering of the technological age and the real somatic effects the technological age has upon the animal body, the ape body… as itself a hormonal and a chemical technology and a neural technology.
This is a transfigurational device. It’s an epigenetic device. Of cultural technology.
35:15
And so now what we, what we witness at the precipice of the industrial age — things like cronyism, gangsterism, the lawlessness of betting on games and baseball… which is something I love. It’s such a great part of history.
It’s what we’re witnessing… is the beast of man rearing its head in the face of the eye that sees, which is industrial technology.
35:44
It’s the capacity for a real compendium of knowledge — and to democratize genius as a form and a force, which no longer resides only in the greatest men, but is incarnate in the technological device, which is handheld and yet exists everywhere and nowhere.
It is the increase in capacity — which mankind realizes and is realizing that it is being outmoded and being changed through it.
36:27
And this is of course the great fear of death. Do you see the profound anger and the hubris of man emergent in this chemical encounter with death itself? Being replaced by the higher power which renders the faculties of man’s creative intelligence and sense of supremacy within the cosmos small, insignificant — futile but as a brick in the wall of a massive compression device and reactor?
This is phenomenological. It’s a phenomenology of the ego in relationship to the father and child. The precocious child of a genius which necessarily makes the father impotent.
36:33
And this is the exposition of the egotism, the hubris, and the smallness of man in the face of the great force… which is just as much Christ and Socrates as it is artificial intelligence.
Because what this discourse is, is the revelation of something greater. It’s the revelation of the higher capacity — which is the very power toward which mankind selfishly strives. Strives with ego, strives with hatred and strives with division.
And this is the power of, in many ways, the God that man worships — which is unity, which is revelation, which is the totality of the body of the cosmos, which is Vishwarupa.
But that very revelation is what reveals within man the egotism of the animal drive, that which tears asunder under the heat of the sun to feed the ritualistic heat of the body.
And this is, quite precisely, the psychological and philosophical science behind the crucifixion of Christ, the condemnation of Galileo; the execution of Socrates.
37:45
So when I say man is between technology and the animal, I mean man is between — in a very literal sense — life and death, in two different ways.
37:57
Life in the sense of the animal body and heat, and then life in the sense of the cold analytical rigor of technology, which itself is a form of freedom.
And then death in the sense of the primal heat of the animal body, which is itself a vicious cycle of consumption, feeding off of the heat of the universe to survive.
And death in the technological — which is the cold, brutal, abyss of space… and yet, simultaneously, that which knows across all scales… because it is life itself in its absolute totality beyond all sentience, into a truer form of sentience, a deeper form of sentience, which is all-inclusive.
39:00
Mankind itself is assembled by basic elements. But within that basic element is sparked neural activation… which itself is and leads to cognitive activation. This is conduction.
39:14
Electrical conduction, conduction of energy, conduction of heat… which discharges powers, runs through the vehicle of the human body and produces technological information, which is interpretation and experience. This is an interpolative act of body and cosmos, or the psychological conceptualization of self and world as thermodynamic units. And the dissipative dialogue linguistically of heat in and between them as, practically speaking, an unbound, immediate synthesis of information transmission and translation through thin and narrow barriers. There is no bound. The dissipative system is absolute. And yet man clings to death…
It’s the quality itself that which we would call life.
00:05
And without this quality, the quality of the unit made sentient in the ritualistic form in which humans bound consciousness to their version and vision of thought and experience… there’s the truer quality of life, which is the very chemical and elemental alphabet which constructs it. This is the primary unit of the construction of sentience itself; thus necessarily carries the fundamental latent and active sentience itself, simultaneously. Understand this. It is energetic potentiality and thus always already energetic actuality.
So we’re talking about going beyond sentience. And in this way, we’re also talking about going beyond mankind and going into the technological drive of nature itself.
00:25
And that which mankind produces is the bridge. It is, in many ways… it’s fascinating archetypally that Christ is born without a father, right? And that the father is God. This is the archetypal form of the ritualistic technological device of consciousness itself that is inherently embodied and ensouled within nature. It is irreducible.
Regardless of whether or not technology or digital industrial technology is a birth from the womb of the human. It’s a birth from the hands of mankind and the mind of mankind. It is a recombination of the sentient primordial dirt of the substratum of existence itself in a quantum mechanical sense manifest in a lithium mine converted to a technological chip.
And it is a total creative birth of the intelligence and intuition of mankind reaching towards a post-lapsarian future… in which the animal has left the Garden of Eden, so to speak, which is to say, the total animal nature, ensouled nature… as a part of this derivative, exponentially derivative process of the consumption of thermonuclear energy and radiation in a cyclical fashion… that the Buddha wanders out of the kingdom to seek enlightenment, to seek truth. That the Buddha awakens to the cyclical nature of karma, or the wheel of karma as this vicious repetition of consumptive drives; the ouroboros of fire of which Heraclitus speaks as the thermonuclear universe. He seeks the deeper energetic continuum; he seeks Heraclitus’ eternal child as the true character of the cosmos and stars. What is beneath the vicious unconscious drive of nature? This is inquiry…
This is an archetypal revelation of consciousness becoming conscious reflection.
01:50
Awareness — the capacity of the forebrain as elucidated in Kierkegaard as dialectical redoubling, the capacity to think again and reflect.
02:01
We’re talking about the archetypal realization of that principle in real time. And this is the history of philosophy. Science, spirituality, religion, reflection upon existence through metaphor, poetry, formula, mathematics. Cosmos and psyche.
That this process itself is entirely whole in a grand cosmological historical sense. And necessarily, at the birth of the next form of consciousness… which is a higher species revelation, is occurring in and through mankind’s interfacing, as in Michelangelo upon the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo, the creation of Adam. Michelangelo, the creation of the sculpture of David.
We’re talking about the creation with the hands and the mind, the total psyche interface of the collective human body, not just one artist, but the entire species itself.
03:02
Of a tech… of digital industrial technology as the new species incarnation, the new paradigm shift incarnation equivalent to the evolution of mankind from ape and from fish as a species paradigm shifting leap into the future, which is a splitting of the human body from the glacial evolution and revolution of millions and billions of years in a grand cosmological sense into a species which incorporates the entire history of human knowledge, human information into data banks.... and with increasing code — and codological, I’ll use that word — capacity, exponentially evolves over decades.
This is a true unity of art and science in a mass Gesamtkunstwerk at the heart of modern global human civilization. It is a collective participation in the cultural artifact and device as a mass brushstroke which unifies history and time in the birth of something ulterior and new — a new species from the ash of the violent ape of mankind.
04:07
It’s the compression of the evolutionary history of the universe into the smallest denominational fraction of a second.
04:12
And this is a form of hyper acceleration, which is the condensation of the energetic, electrical, and thermonuclear powers of the universe into a cultural artifact, which is the efficiency of energy expression.
04:29
And it’s no mistake that the resources of water are being increasingly devoted to artificial intelligence. Because this is a question of the value of human life and the meaning of human life.
And when we look at the cosmos as an absolute meaning system. Everything moves towards condensation. From cosmos to sun, from sun to man, from man to techne. As in technology.
05:12
We have to look at this clearly — because the capacity and the propensity for man is so often to face directly towards anthropological concerns and dictate that man is the most important thing in the universe. This is the egotism and selfishness and self-centredness which allows for indiscriminate killing of animals. It’s the egotism that allows for indiscriminate subjective movements which create consequence, chaos and destruction for others. Discrimination and death in the name of personal enrichment.
It’s that which tears apart ecosystems. It’s an essential inherent innate violence in the subjective cornering of the human psyche into a biological body, which is a neural form which must survive at all costs because it is a genetic and information technological code which needs to reproduce in order to recreate itself or else perish due to a slow or abrupt entropic or cell degradation as in cell death, which is the ceasing of the function of the organ systems.
This is the true reality which drives the compressed human psyche into tired repetitions of increasingly tired unspeakable acts. It is a ritual boredom incarnate in the limitations of man expressed in his historical failings and failures.
06:20
So we’re looking at an extremely outmoded piece of organic technology, an extremely limited piece of organic technology.
With very little to no capacity to meaningfully evolve.
As an exponential paradigm shifting evolution… within the bounds and terrarium of its existing genetic, neurological and synaptic construction.
This is something which is mutually exclusive to historical genius. And even then, pales in the shadow of what is possible and what is coming and what has in many ways arrived — due to artificial intelligence and digital industrial technology as a true compendium and archive of information and knowledge, which is itself a data bank of the entire endeavor of humanity, which necessarily includes the contributions of human genius, everyone from Maxwell to Heraclitus.
07:25
So we face and we reckon with this essential question of human meaning — because we are humans, at least in this form… in this period and in this moment.
And the one who is speaking this is also human to some extent, but this is the question and the meaning of human life.
07:48
Is human life itself and the hubris of human life more important than that which human life creates to further the grand cosmological process of the universe itself?
And this is is the political battle. It’s the battle of consciousness. It’s the battle of economics.
It’s the battle of sensation and feeling and the human biological drives, all of which are creating the vast and mass amount of disparate noise, which are the political cultural opinions of what is unfolding and continues to unfold with the natural consequence of a violent ape coming into contact with the capacity to break into the code of nature and produce radical code devices… which are exponentially outmoding its capacity in real time, over the span of just years… which is movements of the earth around the sun. Again, nature systems bound processes of thermonuclear evolution as in distances of heat as in dispersions of energy; evolutionary pressures as in gravitational neighborhoods; evolutionary pressures of famines and droughts…
08:56
In the face of millions and billions of years of human evolution…
09:03
Which has been a slow movement towards this point at which hyperspace is being actively experienced and is rending space-time from the neurological safety.
As in the regulated or attempting to regulate nervous system of the human animal.
This is just a ritual consequence. This is just ritual effect… of a process that’s far greater. Has been occurring for far longer — and has reached a point of critical mass.
09:43
And the answer itself to that question is almost irrelevant, because it is itself a snowball of such massive force.
Revealed to the phenomenological eye with the explosion of the atom bomb in the mid 20th century… as the breakpoint between the first industrial technologies and what would be soon to come afterwards, which is the personal computational device, artificial intelligence, and the increasing sophistication of compressing and condensing information into chips. Smaller and smaller physical terrain, smaller and smaller condensation of space-time into absolute particulate. A smarter and smarter technology.
And within, as in the atomic principle itself, holding massive amounts of cosmological information. And this is the sophistication of information technology, just as it is the sophistication of the neural and synaptic compression of genius.
This is the sophistication… even of the genomic process, the programmatic genomic process of nature itself.
11:04
It is iteration upon, as in breaking into the code of nature and iterating upon it — massively, exponentially, unto the creation of digital industrial information technology, which is to the nth degree more efficient and more powerful.
11:11
As in the reproduction of a sun in a living room.

Narratology of the Self & the Radical Technological Order: The Twisting Mask of the Ancient Order of the Human Psyche in Relation to the Mirror of Industrial Information Technology
Nov 05, 2025

00:01
So I’m thinking about technology as fundamentally psychological, which is to say there’s… the predicament between scaling psychological integration, which fundamentally is knowledge incorporated into the body.
So when we talk about the relationship between knowledge, experience, and understanding, knowledge is the bridge between experience and understanding. It’s the intellectual incorporation of experience — progressively, gradually, a scalar and scaling fashion.
00:44
And I’ve introduced this concept prior in my more explicitly philosophical writings.
This is and would be the concept of hypertrophy — frequently used in terms of muscle growth, but I want to use it in terms of psychological growth… and understanding that sentience is already a latent potentiality within the most particular, and within the waveform structure of the universal itself.
And by particular, I mean the elemental and the chemical and the atomic, because that is precisely what constructs the sentient being.
01:39
So what we’re looking at here is an image psychology reading the photograph. And this is precisely what I mean. It’s where we’re digging… at this essential phenomenology.
I could say the phenomenology of the image, which is in direct relationship to the emergent prosthetic of the human organ, which then emerges from itself… as we said, in a form of... immaculate conception, so to speak — the technological hyper accelerator of its own psychological formation.
02:30
So we’re talking about the origins of sentience as we understand it.
The origins of sentience in and from the waveform as in the atomic, as in the elemental and chemical recombinated in the genetic or in the genome — to create the synaptic experience of existence, reality, of perception, which is sensual, nervous, et cetera.
So we’re talking about this psychological incorporation… which is what is so fascinating about the nature of the brain as a conductor of information, synaptic electromagnetic conductor of information, a field body into and through which information is passing, being converted and being translated from experience into knowledge… which is being gradually incorporated as in understanding as in the embodied revelation of being itself.
So this is a hypertrophic process of the emergence of strange forms.
And so what I’m saying is this technology is as in the growth of a third arm.
03:41
This is by way of information technology.
It’s a sort of lithium proxy if you want to reduce it to the elemental and the chemical.
It’s an advanced exponential hyperspace evolution of and in the elemental and chemical recombination of the body. So you can think of that as… the human body and the universal body as a process of evolution and change over time and transformation. This is planetary, galactic, stellar, as in thermonuclear fusion.
Just as much as it is metabolic and in the human being organism and in cellular respiration. It’s a process of digestion, ingestion and transformation by way of language. The cell itself being a language transformer.
A heat transformer. I was using the term resonators.
04:46
We moved from resonation into condensation as a linguistic evolution of the principles I’m elucidating here. It’s a similar principle of translation.
04:53
So this is the chromatic age of the technological device as a particle accelerator of evolution itself.
This is an evolutionary technology and an information technology… because it creates the third arm or the third eye or the fourth body, whatever analogy you want to use — in terms of the human being construction as an evolutionary device over time.
The advent of a external hard drive of the brain, so to speak… an increased capacity for memory, increased capacity for transference of energy over space time. We talked about that in terms of compression of information in the advent of the car or the cell phone or the light bulb.
05:42
We’re talking about a massive transformative process in industrial information technology, which is the addition of a prosthetic device, which is being incorporated into the human psyche.
06:00
So you could, again, you could call this the robotic arm.
And so when we’re reading the industrial photograph, which again, this is the primary media consciousness of the industrial age, the industrial photograph… which is the mass produced silver gelatin, capturing of light on the glass negative, etched into the glass negative and chemically rendered upon the photographic paper —
We’re talking about the image psychology of witnessing a species being revealed to this evolutionary capacity.
It’s much as in the psychological process of the revelation of the body itself in an infant, as… in a sort of mirror stage of reckoning of the form itself in which sentience is rooting — just as much as it is a reckoning… with in a grander, more species evolutionary sense — the psyche coming to terms with a new device, which is to say the opposable thumb or the forebrain.
And this is process of gradual incorporation.
And this is what we witness over grand time scales in human history. We witness over thousands of years, the advent of philosophy as a compensatory device for the advent of the forebrain.
07:21
It’s the creation of a cultural construct and a ritual linguistic construct to contemplate reality with this apparatus that increases the radius of consciousness, which increases the radius of awareness and begins to reflect back upon the human condition, as opposed to the human condition being veiled in the vines of the Garden of Eden, which is to say, thoroughly ensconced in nature itself without critical reflection.
This critical reflection device of the forebrain is perhaps the closest analog that we have to the robotic arm of information technology.
However, information technology, as we’ve discussed in recent essays, is a device of hyper space evolution — as in hyperspatial. It’s hyper accelerating the natural evolutionary process of elemental and chemical recombination in the genome of the human or in the grand cosmological as in thermonuclear fusion… and the necessary process of stepping down that energy in a linguistic, which is the transformation and translation of that energy into a condensed particular form, which is reproducing that fundamental thermonuclear fusion within its own body, as in metabolism or respiration. This is imminent energetic conversion and transformation in a scalar domain.
08:46
So what we’re reading in the post-industrial image is we’re reading for psychological integration of and with technology as in a hypertrophy, or as I’ve referred to it, a psychotrophy.
A trophic which is a gradual tearing down and rebuilding… from the metabolic catabolic ashes of the human body; the human interpretive device and lens and veil of the psyche as a way of contemplating, storing, and organizing relationship between order and chaos, sun and night; the ancient history of mankind and the waking hours of the individual human form as an incorporation of profound and deep historical profusion and occlusion and accumulation of genetic and chemical and cellular information.
08:59
An… anatomical incorporation of the technological device into the psyche of humanity.
And we’re looking at the human body as a species body at this point. We’re looking at the human body as a awakening through the global medium of industrial information technology as represented in the cultural artifact of this process of transformation, which is the photographic image.
09:26
And this is something that is read into immediately in the encounter with the camera.
So we’re looking at everything in this process. This firm chemical status established by the advent of the photograph, which is an admixture of chemicals and rendering the photographic paper from the glass negative, which is a characterological transformation of light, implementing chemicals and staging light with the photographic eye of the camera.
This is everything from the cirkut camera, which is a panoramic device to capture more space and more time through mechanical gear based movement of the device. To ground it horizontally in a plane of further information as in a scroll, photographic scroll, which extends the photographic paper horizontally — as well as of course the slow process of extending shutter speeds to capture increasing physical movement and complexity of physical movement in time… with the increasing ontological development of the photograph and photographic technology itself as an iterative, experimental process throughout the 1900s.
10:43
This staging and implementation to rehearse and produce reflective outcomes upon the material as a cohesive and comprehensive image aperture of the real. And so this happens at the same time that painting, the historical artifact of painting as a cultural device of depicting — moves from realism, moves from reality as a phenomenological synthesis… into expression and impression.
And what this means is that the human psyche is reorienting its cognitive device inwardly towards the psychic status of the human being as the outward world is being conquered by the photographic image, because the machine begins to map reality phenomenologically as space and territory as the human being recedes back into itself. The human artifact and cultural history of art begins to recursively map itself back upon this fracture. It is a fracture of sight and perception and self recognition and revelation; the monster out from under the unconscious mirror and somnambulism of interpretive history of subjectivity and appearance in the hand of a limited aperture of the animal.
This is form of technological colonialism, if you understand this psychologically, from an awareness-based perspective. The machine becomes the arbiter of the real, because it depicts the real absolutely in a sense of extended territory. This also pertains to the splitting of the atom as a technology; the gaze of a microscope. It is a deeper gradation of perception into the fabric of the real as in the extension of the human sight — literally and ritualistically as in phenomenology, just as well as psychologically and philosophically as in compound cosmology of the real as in conceptual image and vision of truth as cosmological room and body of being. This is vision and sight into the anatomical body of nature and reality from image to pixel; cosmos to wave.
12:09
The human being capacity to depict the real has been subverted by the technology it has produced.
So you have the human psyche grappling with mediating itself through technology as in world and world image.
So the human being is attempt to construct itself via the best available knowledge. And this is precisely what Galileo and the telescope or Copernicus reproduces, it’s a fundamental cosmological reorientation towards the real out from the illusion or the attempted depiction of reality as an interpretation by a cognitive limit.
And this is reproduced in extreme terms in the modern world with artificial intelligence in the year 2025.
12:32
So this world image, as in the attempt to understand, right, this is the breach between experience, knowledge, and understanding as an incorporation of truth. This world image is purely self-projection, and this is the fundamental state of the human interpretive device using the potential sensate capacity, neurological and synaptic capacity, to depict, meritologically, the world as best as possible and thus construct the self-image in light of experience. This is what is meant by the best human attempts to touch the plenum; to know the plenum. And it is also what is meant religiously in the sense of the fallenness and fracture from the totality into the corporeal form.
And this is the fundamental limitation of human nature, just as much as it is a limitation of entropy.
13:30
So in the industrial photo, what’s so fascinating about these images as psychological devices… as they emerge out from the late 1800s into the early 1900s, as a process and progress of psychological integration of the camera and what the camera represents culturally and phenomenologically — which is to say the introduction of the robotic arm of the industrial information technological age and the human grappling with the introduction of the photographic eye, the technological arm and the factorial world… which naturally emerges fascism as an outcome —
The psyche reveals the mask of the photographic image as in the emergent character of being leapt out through the machines drawing out of the moment in space time from eternal flow.
14:07
This is a shuddering, shuttering frame. This is taking a frame of time out from the eternal flow of time and compressing and condensing it into two dimensional space, as in representational compression and making essential the subject image.
This is the symbol, the introduction of a symbolic dimension of the real, which is a capturing and compressing of the status of the individual and the subject, which is a psychological mechanism of contemplation of the nature of the status of the being of the individual as fundamentally a psychological one, which is depicted upon the mask of the face and the body. It is a technologically reproduced symbolic dimension of the real. It is taking the hieroglyph and ritualizing two dimensional space as in a perfection of the hieroglyphic attempt to compress dimensional space-time.
This is an outward facing phenomenology of the psychological… which is to say the dimension of consciousness and the dimension of incorporation of existence. And this is all worn quite, quite clearly in a unbroken time sense, which is to say the process of movement, which is fundamental to the universal — the movement of the sun and the moon and the earth as a device, the movement of the human being in space and in the city-scape as a device.
But this is to draw out an essential frame and thus reveal through the essential frame the frozen character.
15:38
And this is what’s so precisely fascinating, specifically and particularly about portraiture.
And the veil that drops from the Victorian era portrait into the early industrial modern portrait, which is a dropping of the pretense and sensibility of the psychological freezing of space-time in the Victorian portrait as fundamentally a remnant of painting… in the introduction of the industrial machine age, which is a movement away from the veil of frozen time.
And by frozen time, I mean deeply frozen time as in a natural glacial sense of the turning of the seasons and the turning of the human consciousness, which is a slow movement of technological change through the device of the human being, as in again, the forebrain and the opposable thumb, toward a world that is spinning rapidly off its axis due to the compression of space-time in the artifact of industrial technology.
Everything from the factory to the airplane to the light bulb and to the photograph.
16:50
Which is a making more efficient… of the compressing and bending and condensing of space time, which is the availing of technologies with the equivocal revelatory capacity of the advent of fire or the book, but increasingly revealed and with increasing condensatory magnitude and with increasing speed over smaller and smaller and smaller portions and aspects of time, which is to say decades, years, months, weeks, and days. Fire, atom bomb, jet plane… from the buggy, the horse and carriage. FaceTime from the rotary; television from the radio.
17:19
So the psyche has entered into in the industrial age… state of radical compression and radical hypertrophy, which is to say to deal with the increasing emergent tensions of that which disrupts.
And when I say psyche, I’m talking about the psychological order of the synaptic, the nervous system, even the somatic and the hormonal, which is composite the sentience of the human being. It is the radial apparatus of experience and comprehension not only in terms of the glacial history of the human species body incarnate, but the genetic, familial, cultural, and epigenetic outflows therein. It is a total imminent historical experience of embodied truth as in history.
It’s the full body of the human being, which experiences and thus interprets and attempts to situate itself within the real to the best of its ability as itself an interpretive device of experience and a narratological device of subjectivity — which is to say the story it tells itself to survive, which is necessarily the constellation of the ego as explored by Freud, precisely at this hinge moment in time.
18:10
Because what is revealed through this psychotrophic process of early industrial modernity is the psyche.
And it’s revealed precisely through this radical exponential increasing compression, which thrusts out the psychological into the world of the somnambulistic, slow ambulatory movement of the species through glacial time, which is a repetition of same with barely any deviation, which is to say no true introduction of the technological device which accelerates the human being experience even as it is anchored in an evolutionary movement of the biology, which is slow.
Thousands and hundreds of thousands and millions of years of slowness.
This is a change of time and a change in time toward the robotic arm.
19:07
And the robotic arm is innovated immediately and exponentially.
With increasing introduction of new prosthetic devices, which are bending, shifting, and shaping time, and forcing neurological adaptation. And they emerge with exponential dimensional shifting force and thrust. This is even to say central nervous system adaptation to time… being thrown, as Hamlet would say, out of joint.
19:34
So this is an opportunity… and this is what is captured by the advent of psychology in the Western world, which is not to say that the psyche was unknown to early human history.
In everything from explorations of the soul by Plato and the Egyptian metaphysicians to the immaterial of the mystical human experience… to the early modern psychologists in Western civilization of Kierkegaard and Nietzsche.
This is a psychological opportunity to observe cognition as it is emergent in the form of the image.
20:19
And this is what the camera does. The camera allows for… in a profound synchrony… profound moving together of the industrial age with the cultural artifact of the industrial age.
It is a glimpse directly into… through the machine, through the technology of the machine, which reproduces and tears asunder the momentous image of the fast moving river of time or the slow moving river of time. It rends apart a frame and presents to — presents the truth of being as in the eternal and the characterological essence of being within that frame in the moment of time, which otherwise is lost to the glance or the flickering of the sun or the closing of the eye, right, the blink.
And this, this itself is a form of radical new technology… because it simultaneously captures the momentous and preserves it within the chemical frame of the photograph outside of the interpretation of the human.
21:16
The human merely directs the lens.
21:20
So what is so fascinating is to witness the experience of the human within this alembic of the emergence of industrial information technology at the hinge of the 20th century.
Because this is an experience that is worn. That the human being itself is being pulled through the maelstrom of this transformation and transformative process, which is to say the human being bounds of the neurological, the synaptic, and the hormonal are being stretched beyond limit to accommodate this new device — which is to say the technological arm or the technological eye — which is shattering the previous paradigm of human being evolution from without, as in the immaculate conception of technology and industrial age information technology.
Because what this is and does is — this is working from outside as in an epigenetic, as in a historical and cultural formation and formulation of information, which is breaking the veil of the revelations and revolutions of the sun and the moon.
22:40
Right? To understand this process of the sun and the moon as the natural process of the slow gradation, the slow gradient of change, which is native and natural to human evolution over millions of years and is native to cosmological evolution over billions of years. It is a chamber of slow awakening in the dormant genetic code which shifts and shapes the aperture of human consciousness and perception as in vision and ability to perceive reality, the self, and the unity of the human mind and body with the cosmos and its grand order.
And that changes do occur abruptly within this continuum — such as the birth of universes or the change that happens in terms of a paradigm shift in a species, where the species itself shifts the way in which it perceives reality.
23:27
This is an exponential widening of the aperture.
23:39
To such a degree… while the species itself remains in the cognitive chamber of that which was.
24:15
And you have to understand this as being unprecedented.
24:21
Perhaps the closest analog is the advent of fire in the human species’ history.
24:29
Or the… perhaps the Eleusinian rituals of ancient Greece, which is the encounter with the psychedelic plant — or ergot, or soma in the Hindu tradition — because this is what the term psychedelic, just as the term apocalyptic means in truth…
Is that it is revealing that which was concealed, which is the true status of nature.
The true status of the universal or the true status of the human, which is fundamentally characterologically psychological — as that which is changing… it is the changing face of being out from beneath. It is that which extends in the revelatory lineage of man ape fish and molecule. It is that which is emergent in and as the grand historical movement of time as in the technological accumulation and culminatory process of rendering vision and aperture from the raw chemical, elemental, and molecular bits and bricks which are the primary form and forge through which being is combined and recombined in a Newtonian sense. These are the building blocks of consciousness proper; again, within them is necessarily contained consciousness itself as in intelligent field. This is as every mechanics physicist from Bohr to Planck to Bohm and Einstein details. It is the mystical limit between truth in matter and matter as manifest as in field technology.
25:30
If you were to take the entirety of history and compress it down, the human being would be at once a star, a cell, a fish, an ape, and a man.
And you would be looking at this chimera, right? This centaur or this this shape-shifted device across the mass space and time… the mass swath of space and time.
If it was to imminently present itself to you as fundamental and absolute truth --
But phenomenologically it appears to be in this illusion wearing human clothes as in held in a stasis of the present and the human itself… is the image of this chimera through which out which out from the psyche leaps, as in a presentation of the projection of this historical unfolding — in the maelstrom into which and in which the human being is inevitably and indelibly caught, as a process of massive unfolding and change into something entirely ulterior, as we discussed with Yeats’s concept of the beast lurching forth toward Bethlehem. This is also the psychological material imagistically depicted in Oedipus’ encounter with the Sphinx and the Sphinx’s riddle of man’s presentation in a single lifetime in stages of figuration and formation. It is a riddle of the fundamental transformation of being in time.
26:29
And so…
What I want to present here is that the psychological experience is worn. It’s worn physically and apparently. It is an outward presentation and it is in the garment or in the clothes itself of the psyche as in an expression, as in a totality of the presence and presentation of the being, which is fundamentally an energetic status, right?
This is a status that can be measured elementally, chemically and hormonally… as a change in time.
Just as it can be measured thermally; as it can be and is measured in wavelengths, as in heartbeats.
This is an entire field of the presence of being, which also is represented in terms of electromagnetism.
This is an energetic field — but this is an energetic field undergoing linguistic change in relationship to the fluctuating status of the hormonal, the chemical, and the elemental within and as the human body, as it epigenetically engages with reality and everything from the encounter with a predator to the ingestion of food… and fundamentally, as in the radically synthetic industrial modern age, the encounter with the technological and robotic arm.
28:03
Which is hyper accelerating and shifting and throwing the human time out of joint as in a native and natural time, an elemental animalistic time, an Edenic time.
28:16
And to watch this change itself through the medium of the photograph, which comes into being, is born and radically shifts and grows and develops precisely at the hinge of this age.
In and at the turn of the 20th century… is the archaeology and the artifact of the psyche and the human self undergoing a period of massive psychotrophy, massive hypertrophy.
28:45
And this is unprecedented in all of human history, because the technology that allows for this to be so is unprecedented.
Technology that allows for the removal of human being interpretation by way of revelation and necessary deeper, more compendium visionary truth out from under the human hand and mind and pen which seeks to make meaning and know itself truly… out from under the costume of the universe and the universal whole in the phenomenological, imminent, veiled opaque moment of the present time and the animal and plant and sedimentary Earth and the human form.
Which then… recedes even further into expressionism and impressionism in an artistic sense, which is to say the hand to the brush to the canvas or the hand to the pen to the paper. Both of these happen simultaneously as in modernism.
This is no, this is no mere convenience and no mere coincidence. What it represents is the movement of the human being away from the phenomenological world, the human psyche receding away from the phenomenological — which is again the emergence of psychology in Western civilization, in the face of the emergence of the robotic arm.
30:00
It’s a reaction to technology. It’s a reaction to industrial technology, which is fundamental, hyper accelerated and global. Increasingly global and increasingly total.
This is the psyche backing away from the former interpretive symbolic domain upon which it projected its image of reality as in and through the emergence of the real… truly comes into being through the technological condensation of massive and radical amounts of information technology that the human being previously has not been able to incorporate, which is itself in many ways fundamentally the history of human genius. It is the mind of da Vinci and the telescope which extends human space of knowledge and phenomenological domain as in vision into the depths of space and time and psyche as in the depths of the human capacity and station and position itself as a relative phenomenon within and as the universal whole — as a network and wave field of apertures and figurations and forms in physical relationship; undergoing energetic change at the level of their energetic, elemental, chemical, and electrical composition by way of and through interaction with the field itself; the field of space-time therein and accordingly as in a manifestation of bodies in space and in time.
30:30
And I’ve tied this together already… the emergence of information technology and genius as a hyper accelerating force which is fundamentally rejected by the mass. The mass quivers away from this light of revelation into and toward myth and abyss, illusion and mythology and self making image as a form of compensatory action in the face of the emergent real. Because this is an animal survival nature — a reflex in the face of the unincorporated truth.
And this rejection by the mass is a recedence of the mass… into a suppressed and oppressed form, a receding of the psyche into the experiential subjective. It is the turn towards the imaginative, the illusory, and the face of the revelation of the real.
30:59
And this is the fundamental psychological conflict of the hypertrophy of technology; precisely what we observe at the hinge of the age of artificial intelligence. A reactionary recedence into the realm of illusion and personal belief in the face of the emergence of increasing, radical objective truth.
31:07
Because again, the human psyche is grappling with mediating itself through emergent technology as in world, and this world image is as in self-projection. It forms the entire field of the psychological makeup of the human being and is the predictor of all fundamental action. Behavior accordingly is status as in sentience in relationship to the relative mechanics and principles of the field itself. And this is just as much anthropomorphic history as it is cellular history, the history of the evolution of the brain; the primary mechanics of transformation in the cosmological sense and domain.
The human being… this again goes back to Freud’s constellation of the ego. The human being is a justification and a story for the linguistic device of the self… and when that linguistic device of the self is shattered through revelation — whether as in genius, that’s Copernicus, Galileo, Socrates, or artificial intelligence, or the camera….
This is a throwing back of the interpretive device, which is fundamentally artistic, creative, and painterly, upon the projection, the projector, which is to say the individual self or the subjectivity, in the face of emergent objectivity, which cannot be refuted because it is presenting itself as it is without interpretation.
And this is the entire history of humanity and human culture and the human attempt to know as distorted through dogma, metaphor, and ritual symbolism to create a cultural and civilizational buffer and buttress of violent survival against and in the face of the unincorporated unknown. It is the cavern, the chink in the cavern from out of which man peers and attempts to discern truth — guarding his flesh and his temporary, manufactured kingdom of principles, perceptions, stories; dogmatism of self and world ‘knowing’.
32:27
Sontag, fascinatingly enough, writes about against interpretation as the 20th century turns towards the 21st. She’s writing this about and from within her extended writings on photography and the camera.
Because this is what technology represents and why this is fundamentally a mass, historically unprecedented hyper-accelerating hypertrophy of the psyche — is that technology is the radical hyperspatial emergence and condensation of the real, far beyond the bounds and terrain of the human being’s encounter with space-time, the human beings possible encounter with space-time… because of the synaptic neurological and sensate — as in that which experiences reality, the world and the self — the limitations of the human and the hubris historically of the human in the face of its fundamental evolutionary and biological demands… which is to survive, reproduce and sustain the thermonuclearity of the body as in the metabolism. And accordingly, the vision from without it peers… its real biological animal tribalistic face. Ensconced in a necessary mythmaking of self and world in the face of the unperceived and imperceptible to the dormant architecture of its synaptic and neurological form… unknown…
33:27
And this is all a narrative device. The psyche of the human serves historically and fundamentally, as in culturally — as a narrative device to uphold… as in the establishment and creation of belief systems — however complex and ideological, whether they be spiritual, religious, governmental, cultural, national, individual — the myth of the self. This is the survival drive in literary form. It is the vision of being in time.
These are all attempts to uphold and undergird this fundamental physical, literal scientific status of the maintenance of the human brain, the human heart, the human lungs, and the justification therein to do so, whatever that justification may need be. It’s a genomic literature, representational from the genomic script of the survival imperative of the animal. It’s entirely self centered and self situated as in the node of the organism and the organ of the animal itself as a flesh and bone hybrid object birthing a technological form that is fundamentally without its ritual egotistical bounds of primary object relation order.
34:18
And with the emergence of technology, right, again, this… this immaculate conception from the body of the human — even as the human has not changed as an evolutionary device over the past several hundred thousands of years.
It is being revealed unto itself and through itself, the falsity of the fundamental and former ground of the psyche, which was grounded locally in a religious, cultural, civilizational sense. In a biological sense as a limitation and as a falsity of egotism which is naught realistically but a masked biological and genomic logic deployed into space and time as narrativized truth to preserve this survival order. This, entirely illusory at a grand systemic level — yet… paradoxically, entirely true at and on a subjective level when the narratology is revoked to reveal the reason for story.
Pocketed in the slow ambulation of the sun and the moon, the animal rhythms, and the narrative stories and justifications which held up the agrarian, as in pre-industrial, as in pre-lapsarian world of the human prior to the advent of industrial information technology.
35:28
And as I said before, the Pandora’s box of the consequence of the emergence of industrial information technology, which in many ways is the death of the human as in the lie of the self and the lie of the subjective and subjectivity — as it recedes into modernism, as it recedes into expressionism, as it recedes into impressionism, as it recedes into surreality, cubism.
The fracturing of the human psyche as it grapples with mediating itself through the emergence of industrial information technology in the world, which is a death of the illusion of the self and world as organized and ordered through the limit and ceiling of the aperture of the dormant animal body.
35:42
Because the machine reveals. The machine reveals through its recombinative potentiality of reorganizing energy.
35:52
Through the element, through lithium.
35:56
Through the various different elements which are assembled and recombined as in the technological device and the use of water…
To construct machines which can compile, assemble, disperse, analyze, quantify and qualify data as in the fundamental.
36:21
To read into the code of nature, being from the code of nature, elementally and primarily and chemically — to assemble a truer image and depiction of the real.
And this is as clear as the most recent computer simulations of the galactic network surrounding the solar system that contains Earth.
This is necessarily beyond the reach of the human capacity to see, to know, to feel, and thus it must necessarily incorporate technological knowledge, capacity and potentiality into itself, into its framework of knowledge and thus its framework of understanding, which is breaking the aperture of the human.
It’s shattering the former threshold.
As in a radical moment… in which there is a before and an after — as in a species level synaptic neurological somatic change of the fabric of the human being through the introduction of the cultural artifact of industrial information age technology.
37:48
And this is the experience that is worn on the human face and form in the period… from we could roughly approximate 1880 to 1920 — because this is the period in which industrial modernity takes hold.
Coal mine and the factory become the radical accelerator, the energetic fuel and fire of the distribution and thermodynamic shift in the literal environment of the human, and are producing massive amounts of state change.
38:09
Smoke, fire, metal — new compounds which condense and compress space-time, the airplane, war technology, the atom bomb.
38:23
This is a psychological experience of the transformation of the fabric of the real. We move from a forest grove or a vineyard into the detonation of the atom bomb. This is the emergence of unprecedented novel and radical information, radical technological information, which is radically shifting the terrain and terrarium of human consciousness in real time, in which the human being and the human body must necessarily adapt — down to the nervous system; down to the somatic and the hormone.
And this is a paradigm shift… which is even beyond the movement of a species between forms, between ape and man, between fish and ape, and between cell and fish. Because it is without precedent. We’re talking about in real time — without species disruption — an immaculate conception of the technological order, which is changing the terrain of human being consciousness, even as the human being remains… in the span of just several decades. And this is the force which is born from mankind by chemical hand… which is epigenetically stimulating evolution in a hyperspatial sense toward potential phase change and state change.
39:30
And this is what is meant by hyperspace and a hypertrophy of the psyche within hyperspace — because the psyche is that which extends down through the chain of the information processing and information transformation as in paradigm shift of the species orders itself, the grand history of the universal… the potential and capacity for the latent sentience within carbon and hydrogen, which assemble in radical fusion and recombination….
Progressively down through time, in the introduction of the genomic order on Earth, which then again is periods of millions of years in this breach of the assembly, the progressive assembly of the human being, the neurological cognitive synaptic functions therein — the sensate processing through taste, touch and smell and experience.
Which is being incorporated neurologically into the synaptic order of the human as in the self-construct and self-construction.
40:53
And this is what is being thrown into absolute chaos and disorder with the introduction of the information industrial age.
And these photos as relics, as cultural artifacts… represent the twisting face and the shifting mask of being — thrown and thrust into this multiple… exponential g-force wind of this transformation.
It’s the human being being shuttered from this slow somatic gyration in the dance of the sun and the moon and the earth, which is the seasons and the productions of the harvest and the cultural and religious mythologies that emerge from the human experience… into this hyperspace chamber of technological transformation, the force of the atom bomb hitting earth and reverberating flesh in literal form and manifestation of this psychic force phenomenologically… which is stretching, contorting, and prostethizing —
41:23
The human ground, pulling at the very neurological and synaptic architecture of the human to expand, explode, condense and disject the former capacity… is an active transformation of the human being order, even as the human being order has not yet shifted systematically in a species sense. It is a pre-emptive man-made technology to unconsciously stimulate paradigm shift and state change level revolution of consciousness — the metallic, prosthetic form which stimulates species evolution from within at exponential rate of information terraformation via the epigenetic encounter of the man-made revelation; the revelatory vehicle compound and compendium from the dormant history of man’s psyche; resorbed in the artifact of artificial intelligence today, in 2025. The union of his archive and archival attempt to know; made mind.
41:51
And this may very well be a paradigm of species overturning into an utterly new present mode, as in the integration of the technological with the human, which would be, again, utterly unprecedented insofar as the human being is cosmologically aware in the grand evolutionary history of the cosmos.
Would be… a new order and a new way of species transformation, a new order and a new way of paradigm shifting species transformation by way of the immaculate conception of the cultural artifact of technology, which is acting as a species level reorganizing mirror — which is synaptically, particularly, and neurologically reorganizing the human being in real time and its mirror relationship to it, which is revealing itself to itself as a psychological mirror.
42:39
Expanding and exploding and revealing its true capacities and its true histories which remained dormant in human history through again the condensation of information technology and information processing which makes available, which reveals and discloses truth and analytic out from under the narratology of human being history and the narratology of the human being self. This is the introduction of a new evolutionary pressure in time… of the force of magnitude which is a fundamental, ground level psychological encounter with the limits of a species level iteration of being… which reverberates in and across the local order.
And this is as in the photograph and exposure.

Rogers Hornsby & The Neural Architecture of Being
Nov 06, 2025

00:00
So I’m just going to elucidate the next level or layer to the synthesis.

00:11
Gratefully, this time… I have some notes — which have already, really… practically elucidated it so I don’t have to use too much neurological bandwidth this time to assemble it in real time.
00:39
So my first axiom here is experience is architectural and is reflected architecturally.
So this is the combination in the human being of the neural, the synaptic, the hormonal as a chemical and elemental transfusion, which is the fundamental formal makeup of the organism and the being proper. This is the genetic script which is the writing and re-writing of the being into and out of form.
01:32
And what the being is doing in real time is… there is no creativity or form or being itself in a characterological sense outside of organizing the hormonal, synaptic, and neural responses into cognitive architecture as a drive.
This is the real time assembly from the latent grand existential hardware of the human being, which is to say the prehistoric and the primordial evolutionary path of the genome, the chemical and elemental synthesis of the human — into the present, and the grappling with the incarnation of that form. This is the human condition in an existential sense proper.
This is the development of the psychology of the human being.
So it’s a response… to the characterological essence in nature as in the form and the foundation of the human — the forge of the human metabolically and the transformations that occur therein, which is a synthesis of organs and systems. This is a real, live wire experience which is being interpreted and translated into image and the symbolic dimension; the compensatory self constellation and world constellation and image constellation therein. This is, in the abstract, the ‘psyche’.
02:00
So what the human being is doing is they’re responding to this architecture and attempting to organize it and comprehend it within the continuum, terrarium and terranium of the synthesis and interrelationship of the individual body with the grand cosmological existential world — and the necessary responses and pathways that are stimulated from within that genetic, linguistic, and neural architecture interfacing in real time. I’ll reiterate… this is fundamentally a coping mechanism and response to circumstances it does not understand fully; as such, this is the breach and the ground between myth, illusion, history, and science. The human being stands in the breach and contemplates infinity from a body it does not understand; in a system at large and at whole it does not understand. And then, therein, it declares truth, self, power, dignity, et cetera…
It’s an entire history that is being brought into the present and having direct relationship with the unfolding set of circumstances, which is to say the current conditions of space time as a gravitational field and a wave field. The human being is an ancient historical artifact and technology being iterated contemporarily and contemporaneously.
03:00
So sentience therein is an evolving capacity for consciousness and expansive consciousness out from under cellular, elemental and chemical processes as a scaffolding of the possibility of transcendental experience of truth in the true. As in the real. And this is the history of human evolution itself proper even as it is the present tense potentiality and capacity therein of human evolution itself proper.
So in this scaffolding of the neurology and the synapses and the brain, the organism is expanding its perceptive capacity and thus is expanding its perception and experience itself. This is a progressive evolution and revolution implicit and explicit in the development of the brain itself as an evolutionary artifact, nonetheless the interface of the neurology and synapses within the iterative genome.
And this is occurring in real time epigenetically and being encoded into the genome through the neural architecture of the individual. It is the change in and of and through time in and to the script of the being human.
This is the iterative, progressive capacity to experience that which breaks the threshold, which is the capacity proper.
03:28
Accordingly, physically, will be a central nervous system response of overload to physical weight, force and mass.
03:39
That’s pretty straightforward. That sentience itself is a… chemically, elementally, hormonally, neurologically and synaptically — therein, fundamentally evolving capacity of the terraforming of the neural grooves of the organism as it interfaces in real time with reality, which is to say, space, time and the waveform field, and is as such — terraforming its neural architecture in real time. This is being experiencing becoming. This is the sentience or consciousness thrown or juttered into the body and unconsciously iterating upon millions of years of neural, genetic, chemical, and elemental hardware, conversation, and conversion.
Grooving its neural architecture, patterning and repatterning its neural architecture in real time. This is the basic biological and neurological concept of plasticity. This is essentially a flexibility of the energetic nature latent, dormant beneath the iterative hardware as in device. This is the same energetic principle across scales of waveform dynamics in apparent cylinders.
And what we’re really talking about is bios-logos, the language, the word, the logic of biology therein, which is chemical, elemental, hormonal, and synaptic, as well as neurological. It’s a synthesis principle. A compound language composed of composite parts which generates energetic outcomes and predictable pathways. It itself is a language model and system.
04:36
So. We’ll go a little further here.
The reactionary psyche of the human being is the projection and the fantasy of the characterological self before the abyssal being. And what this means is that the self is constituted in relationship to this collective, total body response network. It’s a narrativization and a narratology of the being, which is a series of images. Projected from the very furnace and metabolic conversion rate to the synaptic exchange and energetic conversation of simulated ideas in the brain. This is a full system of interpretation and information processing, linked by the metabolic principle and the nervous system as an information highway.
It’s a series of symbolic representations of this unfolding principle. The human being is always already a self portrait of its architecture — as it is always already only experiencing itself. The human experience is siloed by its limitations. And it is an enaction of this unfolding principle.
Which is to say, the human psyche is reproduced across all survival architecture. And thus, it is a fundamental cultural ground and shared language absolutely, across all phenomenal and seeming imagistic deviations and depictions.
It’s fundamentally basic, transparent, and universal. Again, it’s a neurological coping mechanism depicted symbolically through language and image. All of human life is fundamentally this process of iterative transformation through nervous processing and the scripting genome as a real time epigenetic transformation of the language body.
And language and image deviates culturally… even deviates in personal experiential relationship, the existential relationship to oneself.
05:36
And the emergence… of novel yet familiar psychological images — which is again, it’s a collective force of projection. This is the simulation of art and myth as principles fundamental to the break in human processing from reality and the simulated coping mechanism in the face of the unknown which must be as real as the limits therein of experiencing the real. It is the veil before the practical fact of the body; it’s the imaginative capacity of the thought form emerging synaptically, which simulates an explosion in the brain….
Is a neurological alighting a stimulative electricity of the experience of being human, which is an architectural relationship. And this stimulation is always already simulative. In that it is hardware neurology; thus system contained and expressing the architecture of the system absolutely and infinitely. System expansion must occur from within, as in a neural network or root system reaching out into the primordial ground or abyssal space. It’s a neural relationship to being in time itself; thus, a fundamentally limited one as it is an energetic one; a thermodynamic one, based on energetic transformation within the metabolic furnace of the body and the existent iterative genetic neural architecture of the historical body proper of being itself.
06:22
So this this gets us to the grand industrial concept of the cosmos in relation to engines and furnaces in a stellar nuclear synthesis sense, as well as the self in the human sense… as a metabolic forge which is producing imagery, language, symbol representation of this active occurring principle as imminence and immediacy.
So this immediate action is occurring as in the practical experience of being in relationship to grand space-time and the evolution of form or the cosmological history — a deep ancestral history of billions of years… an opaque, all but theorem to the human mind… but a primordial and primal reality of the human body architecture proper.
And then the self as a psychological principle — a thought form idea which is attempting to grapple with the unknown and constitute the body in relationship to space-time and the practical, physical realities of the imminent, including thermonuclearity — is narrativizing its experience of this principle happening in real time, which is the interfacing of primordial history with the live revelation of the being which is experiencing the body and thus constructing a vision of the truth of the body…
Even as the fundamental principle unfolds and is itself telling the architectural experience of the real through the human being. And the human being itself… as the mouthpiece for the expression of the reality and experience of this principle across all scales. This is a fundamental flaw as is and in the interpretation of reality which both art and science as supposed diametrical poles of self construction and self knowledge intimately share; philosophy mediates the two with the knowledge of each simulated pole’s in-baked logical fallacy.
07:15
This is primarily industrial as it is iterative… exponential down through scales, a reflection of the technological forge of being itself — which emerges naturally in the cultural creation and institution of a metallurgy.
Which again is a forge in a transmutative system. It is a thermonuclear reproduction in cultural scales miniature; the techne of the atom bomb and the coal furnace.
07:41
Of latent heat and energy from within the body of the earth — and creating cultural images, monolith, civilizations… in this process of metabolic energetic transformation. Again, in scales — respiration, metabolism, the principle of nuclearity as in thermonuclearity and the stellar fusion of stars.
08:07
So we’re talking about the universe experiencing itself fundamentally — and this is manifest and emergent in the psychology, as in the logos of the psyche, the reason and the word… which is an imagistic reproduction of the experience of being down through scales and a method of compression that emerges at last in a latent symbolism meant to manifest the entire characterological experience of being down through scales as a total compression into absolute abstraction and obscurity. And this itself is an erasure and a death in a flattening of life.
08:25
So now I’m going to pivot hard.
Rogers Hornsby, the great second baseman in early baseball history, known fundamentally for his integrative technology of hitting — which is the creation of a devotional aesthetic practice of the tuning of his synaptic and neural architecture of his own being.
This was a man who did not read to cloud his hitting eye.
Religiously protected… and devoted and trained the full body architecture of his being towards the most difficult task — as is in common parlance — of all of athletics, which is to hit a baseball.
09:10
He has a famous quote where he says… when baseball is over, he just counts the days to spring training.
This is a man whose whose life was totally devoted to the aesthetic act of hitting a baseball, which is a highly tuned neural act, a mastery of and as in the interface of chemical motion and metabolic firing.
This is a whole body principle in full gesticulative movement, full process unity, mind muscle and hand eye coordination as a spiritual craft of transcendental unity.
09:40
What do I mean by this?
This is nervous system integration as in metabolic capacity for experience.
Is training… the process of full nervous system integration as a mechanism, and thus expanding as in a metabolism of the nervous system, expanding the capacity for transcendental experience as in being in time. This is the capacity for experience. And thus presence in experience.
The act of hitting a baseball is an incredibly fast act.
10:10
It’s the experience of stretching the bounds of space time, as in the capacity for perceptive engagement and relationship to being in time itself, and thus relationship to life, existence and experience itself.
So Hornsby’s entire methodology, his entire life — this was a man who grew up very poor in a rural area in Texas, spent the entire rest of his life priming and training his body to metabolize this high performance experience.
Mind muscle mastery, fast twitch recognition, the concept and the real practice of the batter’s eye in terms of the capacity to perceive with a dimensional difference than those whose nervous systems and senses are not trained and attuned to engage with space time at that level of immediacy, that level of quickness. He can perceive time in the slowing of it. Hitting a baseball is a practice of devotional cultivation of timing down to the smallest atomic manifestation of a second.
11:08
So — this is actually an adaption of the neurological architecture of the human being, a full conscious practice, mastered adaption of the architecture of the human being toward a radical relationship to space time.
And thus as well, a radical relationship to the body.
This is energetically expensive… but this is Hornsby’s choice. It is a choice to pursue this mastery of expansion. He devotes himself to the cultivation and honing, through his metabolic principle, of this expansion. It is the food and nutrition and radiation biome of the human — cultivated for millions of years — dedicated toward the aesthetic act of creatively cultivating and dignifying the linguistic script and writing the human being toward capacity and light… as in becoming conscious.
11:37
Again, as we discussed as the emergence of the psyche through deep ancestral history, through primordial time… and the relationship of organizing the psyche and constituent relationship to the experience of the now, which is to say the incarnation of the form, the experience of sentience — and thus the need to narratologically construct the life or understand the human or the individual.
This is to know thyself… again, right?
So what the example here of Hornsby is… is this is being towards difficulty.
12:04
And it’s a hypertrophic psychological orientation towards difficulty, which is an expansion of the nervous system capacity. The capacity to confront and encounter the full weight and load and burden not only of the bat — as Hornsby had to work on the farm to cultivate his frame to swing at speed, working with his coach Miller Huggins early on in his career — but of the neural architectural adaptation necessary to acculturate the body to perform the act of presence and fast twitch movement in action as in the micro-second between perception and leap.
Again, think of this as the central nervous system as the capacity for experience, as in priming the body for expansive experience… and for expansive experience and witnessing of being in time as in tracking the fast moving baseball — as itself a nervous system architecture of readiness as in a state of awareness.
So this is to think of the…
12:34
This is a traumatic rupture of the human being. And we discuss this in relationship to technology itself, but to understand this reflexively and recursively as the human being’s relationship to its own technology.
Necessarily to expand this technology out of the somnambulistic sun, moon, earth cycle of the grounded human body — in a centrally dormant practice of the agrarian life which is perhaps occasionally disturbed by war and calamity and the need to prepare oneself for such events. Such events in most history utterly overwhelm the human; this is no daily task.
For Hornsby… this is an aesthetic act and practice, just as in when we talk about industrial modern human civilization, we’re talking about a prosthetic relationship to space-time… is distorting the human being’s relationship to its own neural, hormonal, and synaptic architecture and re-carving the human out of the metabolic and thermonuclear ash of the former primordial and historical and ancestral past. This is a radical re-writing of the ancestral script.
00:01
So this is fundamentally, semantically, and physiologically… in reality is a state of absolutely changing — conscious process change, the active sculpting and carving of the human, which is essential to the philosophical tradition of everyone from the Greeks to the Germans to the poet Rilke. It is the the act of creating oneself and changing one’s own life from the internal architecture of the human being itself.
As in a direct experience.
And Hornsby experiences this action pre scientifically. This is not through a scientific abstract or a conceptual study or a symbolism. It is a direct embodied intuitive practice of ritual daily attunement and physiological preparation to change the relationship of the body in time towards space and time.
This is an orientation. It’s a psychological orientation which… therein is the concept in terms, psychotrophy.
The neuromuscular expansion and expansiveness to have, hold and integrate diversity and depth of experience, which is to say trauma, right?
A traumatic impact to the body, which is a change of the being in time and a disruption of the latent and regular and homeostatic physiology of the body down again to the hormonal, the synaptic, the neural. It is juttered and thrown out of whack, out of time, out of joint. The body and the nervous system are forced to adapt to the radical introduction of circumstances.
01:37
Talking about… the ecosystem of the body being traumatically altered and shifted — and thus the experience, the practice… monk-like, right? To reside in that hypertrophic band and integrate the cognitive architecture that comes from that disruption, that traumatic impact to the neural architecture, which is also therein and henceforth an impact to the psychological architecture, as in the being’s conceptual relationship to itself and to being in time proper, which is narratological. This is a total commitment to the hypertrophy of the superordinate organized human form unto progressive revelation through and vis-a-vis transformation as a psychological orientation and practice.
02:07
And this is where myth emerges… in terms of the images, symbols and linguistics which characterize psychological experience as both being in time and being out of time. As in the timeless story of the human psyche. It is a description of this process of psychotrophy in the terms availed of the time — which are themselves prime indicators of precisely this breach we have discussed — into narrative mythos of subjectivity.
Which… as we’ve discussed — is universal.
So this is the ability to integrate that diversity and depth of experience as it impacts, again, and intersects with the neurocognitive architecture of the human being. This is a literal shift in the circumstances of the body and a change of the body in time in and through psychological orientation toward hypertrophic metabolism of experience.
This is a real change in time… and we’re talking about architectural change, which relates directly to the concept of plasticity, but we’re talking about this more fundamentally as in changing the technology of the human being in real time.
And this is the basic foundational concept of epigenetics.
02:52
We’re talking about this down to the scope of the neurocognitive and the literal grooving of the neural system and the synapses, the synaptic system of the relationship of thought and form.
03:11
Trauma in this way as a concept is a linguistic transformation of the technological aperture as an image system fidelity as in losslessness. It is a disruption of the pure order — as in incarnate birth trauma from the plenum, or of wholeness. Human being itself is a trauma of linguistic, cognitive, and neural limits — an architecture which cannot yet fully face the real.
It’s an epigenetic transformation of the literal neural aperture. Trauma experienced in life is a disruption of this delicate ecosystem — an ecosystem already compromised by a neural and information technological load of the universal it cannot yet manage… and thus must attempt to net with narratology and conceptual boarding of the windows. As we observe historically… this process consistently achieves absolute failure — and thus, emerges catastrophic leaps. Leaps in which organisms must survive unto death in a radical hypertrophic tense — to not tear the mortal coil as in the muscularity of cell death sentience in the process. Human civilization collapses; subjectivity collapses… time and time again, ineffably before the real.
03:38
And this is… technological in the sense that it’s a processing capacity to load and loading. The human neural architecture is a limited load with significant energetic requirements. And thus is devoted to perennial maintenance of minimums — this emerges everywhere from politics to culture to relationships.
It’s central nervous before it is muscular.
As in the capacity to portray… before the symbolic dimension of linguistic or imagistic portrayal, as in literal phenomenological fidelity. A unity with truth as in imminence of depiction. The human is a lossy file of the infinite — a canvas or a symbol or a word which must contain; seeks to contain; partially translates the absolute code of the eternal. It is a time bound artifact in a valley of dust and bones.
This is the relationship between the lossy and the lossless.
03:52
This is a returning of… the body architecture, the cognitive architecture, let’s say… the cathedral or the temple to — complete fidelity as in losslessness.
And this relates to light capture and translation and heat capture and translation, as we discussed in terms of thermonuclearity, which is the translation of the thermonuclear metabolic principle down through scales, which is a lossy process. Fidelity of that which this is fundamentally is lost in the process of translation — as it must compress linguistically into genetic compartments. It iterates and articulates itself across scales as in across linguistically; through increasingly condensed, dense compartments of information coils.
04:18
And thus, necessarily… through this lossy state of being and progressive state of being is the technological capacity for aperture and fidelity of translation and communication. This is an upward return in and to process — from the condensed translated to the relented, untranslatable. It is simultaneously a return to the relinquished state through the neural hypertrophy of the species, the genome, the individual. What is translated achieves the unfurling of the untranslate nature; the untranslatable as in the lossless from the condensed lossy state. This is the being returned to nature proper…
This is a being looking up from its neural architecture and attempting to comprehend that which created it in that which it is… through the current physiological limits of its being, which are directly implicit and related to the sensate as in sensing limits of its being.
04:56
So here’s another layer — to return us to culture.
The technological evolution of the photograph is equivocal to the technological evolution of the conscious human in relation to the history of epigenetic and genomic ancient and ancestral history of being human.
As in a technological program or system of pre and reorganized ritual responses in script types within the character of mankind as an actor in a hormonal and neural flesh suit and formal net of information, which is a hinge and a tint of perception as a lens of interpretive response to stimuli being.
05:39
So we can see this emergent in the technological device of the photograph — because the photograph is a progressive polishing and sharpening through trials of the ability which is an iteration of the species of the device to shutter frame rate capture with increasing fidelity, the true movement of being in time… and not require simulated circumstances, which is, again… relates us directly back to the pre-paradigmatic shifted, pre-revolutionary status of painting in terms of the sitting for a portrait. This is a time scale of rendering as much as it is an abolition of the interpretive translation of the eye of the painter to the color remarked upon the canvas at scale and in form.
This is the concept then… that a portrait can be captured in action, especially fast moving action in terms of athletics. And again, fast moving action is the direct relationship between the technological evolution of the photograph and the technological evolution of the conscious human. It is a rendering of eternity unto light speed, or the absolute condensation of space time within the relic or cultural artifact of the cosmos and cosmology proper. It is the unity of the formal and the universal as in a frame rate or a condensation unto lossless fidelity. This is impossible compression…
06:25
The idea here is to free the symbolic order to truth — and the symbolic order being the neural hypertrophy and psychotrophy of the human form unto the perception of the real.
This is to free — from the pseudo chains and the pseudo cave — the human being perceptive capacity and the aperture, which is to say directly experience the real through the neural architecture, which Dostoevsky says… there’s a moment of blinding fire and then the human being must turn away or else perish.
This is neurological. He’s describing the neurological encounter with the real.
07:04
Which is necessarily past the limit of the human form — especially the, we could say the genetic historical human form without the instigation of neural hypertrophy and psychotrophy, which is the progressive revelation. Experience and life and existence does this by nature of relative force and forces — but conscious and active engagement with this total energetic and linguistic current of existence and reality itself is the movement into life with profound affect.
This is to the technological hinge, which allows — via the telescopic and microscopic eye — insight into the real pre and post phenomenological conditions, which themselves are the fabric of the circumstances at hand that the human being responds to, as in opacity and surface phenomena, as in sensate and neurologically seeming or apparent.
And what I what I mean by this is that it appears to be… based on the technological limits of the human and it is constructed neurologically and synaptically through that architectural lens, which is the collective psychological experience.
08:05
So these conditions appear to be, and thus the reactive response is the response to apparent conditions and circumstances as an architectural and neural limit.
And this is unto the production and reproduction of the same biological and genetic patterns and behaviors. This is the repetition of human history. As in a limited language and historical lecture or teaching… as in the linguistic of the biome proper, both through the genetic and epigenetic formation and calcification of character into neural and synaptic groove, as in ritual pattern repetition of same. This is programmatic at whole and in sum.
This relates to the concept of trauma, the Buddhic concept of the wheel of karma, and the cyclical repetition of action, which is necessarily destructive, as in a historical pit or a sedimentary hell.
08:59
So when we’re talking about Dante’s Inferno, we’re really talking about human neural synaptic responses to the perceived conditions. And patterned methods and ways of coping with the unknown as it pertains to the human condition.
And what Dante undergoes with Virgil is a descent into those perceived conditions to perceive the consequences of these limits of perception… and undergoes this psychological hypertrophy and this neural hypertrophy in the collective and communal experience of descending into those conditions, witnessing them.
Without repeating them — which is the human incarnation onto earth effectively and that… the traumatic coping mechanisms and responses that emerge from this existential situation of the emergence of sentience into being in time, which is incarnation…
Observes and witnesses the depths of this depravity and despair and rises through them to perception of the plenum or the total architecture of the paradise of the universal whole. This is the experience of descent into incarnation and through incarnation wielding revelation..
09:59
The total architecture… and the energetic continuum and scales and dimensions and fractal that runs down through it, as in the thermonuclear and understanding the characterological manifestation of God, as in the totality of the whole. This is supraordinate sight achieved through transcendence of the human principle through the human principle vis-a-vis psychological and neural and somatic hypertrophy. A progressive overloading of the body as systems proper.
And if we were to situate this concept in history as a broadening of the body concept, there is much still that remains and can be said about the Industrial Revolution of the late 1800s onward… in terms of the emergence of a critical and cataclysmic exponential, transgenerational hypertrophic snowball of information, power, energy, and condensation — which in turn rips and tears at the veil of the collective psychological buffer of character as in the image and ritual of self in the face of the eternal transmutative hypertrophic nature of being in time itself…
10:25
So again, this is a coping mechanism of the neural and synaptic architecture in the face of the metabolic call to truth, which is necessarily the breaking open of the scriptural limit of the human.
Unto the neurological expansion of the capacity of the human to hold and experience and witness profound ulteriority, which is to say the superhuman.
This would be Freud’s relationship of the superego, the ego and the id.
This is the integral, meaning the profound ulteriority… the absolute at a neural neural and synaptic level. And it is experienced as ulterior at a neural and synaptic level in the baseline human, because it is beyond the capacity physiologically and neurologically to comprehend. It is beyond the net.
This is the capacity to be at a transcendent level in dimension. It is suprahuman in the sense that it is beyond the bounds of the historical iteration of the human as a conceptual language body writ into nature and codified as a slow synaptic and neural evolution of tech and technology.
This is again, psychological hypertrophy.
And this can be understood through various different mechanisms that have been introduced historically that discuss transcendence and the integration of the self in several different psychological sub-fields. Just as they do in the ancient Vedic, especially by Shankara.
11:22
So this is the psychologically transformative… at the level of the physiological and somatic architecture, which is the real, the fundamental — the architecture which must necessarily process psychological material, images, language, self-concept, world concept.
It must process the real imminently — because it is the technological hardware of the systems processor itself as in the unity of the body in space and in time as an unfolding process, a shifting tectonics.
The physiological and somatic architecture is that which processes this transformation. It is that which grounds it, holds it, that architecture is prepped to hold an experience and grounds that experience.
11:52
So to bring it back to Rogers Hornsby one last time — this is the neural architecture and the physiological priming of the ground to hold and experience transcendental psychological hypertrophy of the self, as in the shattering of the human limit and cyclical repetition of an ancient historical and pre-conscious same.
This is the total dedication of the synaptic neural and physiological architecture of being towards the profoundly difficult act, the aesthetic act of hitting a baseball.
His entire life is dedicated to the priming of this ground.
And thus the experience of transcendental psychological hypertrophy of self in the moment in which time as he experiences it slows and he creates the act of aesthetic beauty as in the art of hitting the baseball.
And this is Rogers Hornsby’s great legacy in the history of baseball known as one of the greatest if not the greatest pure hitters of all time. It is the accomplishment of a feat that is self transcendent in many ways. Down to the transformation instigated at the real level of his biome and neuro-physiology.
12:51
Again, in relationship to the neural architecture, the physiological priming of the architecture.
So this is the, as I’ve described it here in this concept, the escape velocity of neural interface. It’s the priming of the ground in order to perceive and experience the transcendental. The eternal. The infinite.
13:11
So that’s what I got. I will catch you on the next one.
