Can fame be switched off? A group of revolutionaries called the League for the Liberation of Nobodies have concocted an ingenious plan and they've targeted the year's most glittering celebrity occasion: Oscar Night. The Last Bling King is the story of how ordinary men and women revolted against celebrities and the super rich, became the people they wanted to be, and changed the world forever. This is the 21st Century antidote to Ayn Rand's ""Atlas Shrugged."" Read Less

A detailed quora post alleges that Hockney was actually a multiple of people, or at least relied on a group of other scholars / actual illuminists.

Answer: I presume you’re referring to Mike Hockney of the God Series. They actually discuss who they are (roughly) in one of the books (unfortunately, I can't remember which GS book now). I’m going off memory now, so I can’t say this is verbatim. But what I remember is they said the AC website w...

These guys were seventh degree illuminists who were trying to get into the top 3 "esoteric" levels (the tenth level being either the board of 12 or the "grand poobah" of the board). The top 3 levels of Illuminism are very elite, and you have to be asked and/or accomplish some major task to get in, apparently. So writing the God Series was their initiation ritual.

Then there’s this old post Are the illuminated breaking their silence at last that claims Mike Hockney is Amando Crowley, the son of Allister Crowley (or at least who claimed to be).

that's just a more advanced stage after cycling through a series of selves

funny i was just reading about Amando Crowley last night, he got into some kind of trouble under his own name trying to sell a souped up version of his dad's thought, or something like that

> the very meaning of "survival" becomes different when we stop talking about the survival of something bounded by the skin and start to think of the survival of the system of ideas in a circuit. The contents of the skin are randomized at death and the pathways within the skin are randomized. But the ideas, under further transformation, may go on out in the world in books or works of art.

> The individual mind is immanent but not only in the body. It is immanent also in pathways and messages outside the body; and there is a larger Mind of which the individual mind is only a subsystem. This larger Mind is comparable to God and is perhaps what some people mean by "God," but it is still immanent in the total interconnected social system and planetary ecology.

the bling king sounds alright though, i'd read that

im probably going to end up ordering the first one if theres a physical copy i guess. cant resist.

@Clinamenic you'd like this a lot I think https://faculty.washington.edu/jernel/521/Form.htm

Bateson, from Steps To An Ecology Of Mind

It's what the above passage is from

Yeah that excerpt was good, great way of describing this stuff.

The old unit has already been partly corrected by the population geneticists. They have insisted that the evolutionary unit is, in fact, not homogeneous. A wild population of any species consists always of individuals whose genetic constitution varies widely. In other words, potentiality and readiness for change is already built into the survival unit. The heterogeneity of the wild population is already one-half of that trial-and-error system which is necessary for dealing with environment.

I wonder of the informational heterogeneity of today's media landscape could be understood as evolutionarily optimal from a systems perspective.

this is a meaningless sentence. total gibberish bollocks.
