  • Cognition and experience

    They say that the purest knowledge is empirical, that is, based on direct experience. But experience can be deceitful, e.g. optical illusions or logical experiments of dual interpretation. After all, understanding is the primary of the mind and of it’s director: the reason.

    A simple experiment: imagine the smartest man, the best mind system in the universe. That man needs to live and cogitate a little and then he’ll understand it all, a whole system will form in his head. It will be reflected, organized, prepared, and then be visible. But still the man needs at least a minimum of time to gain an experience of the actual and the reality in which the mind finds itself in order to reflect and formulate the cognition.

    Reason and the power of intellect, packed in a well organized mind are the key crucial forms of knowledge. Logic, mathematics… But experience is still the highest, most important, practical way. Actually, cognition is a competent qualitative connection, refinement and reforming an experience into human knowledge.

  • Culture, information, entertainment, style

    Don’t underestimate highest importance of culture and entertainment, as it is said – “bread and circuses”, 50/50, but actually it’s about 30/70 bread/circuses. Not for nothing even monkeys have a lot of leisure – in the world and in nature in general it is not common to work yourself to zero, leisure is immanent and necessary to every creature.

    Man is defined by the information he surrounds himself with and the information that surrounds him.

    Professional sports – they create information food, we can’t see it but it is a tangible reality – pieces of information in space. People literally eat information… It’s true that there are different kinds of information diets.

    Why do movie celebrities get huge sums of money and ordinary actors get small sums of money? In the essence they might be similar… The answer is simple – recognizability, to attract attention to information. In information flows people cling to familiar faces, familiar objects, as if orienting themselves in space, as a kind of guarantor of certainty, not to lose time. But, sometimes even familiar objects get bored, reduce their reputation, quality, style.

    Style is the deepest basis of any essence. If there is a best – it is very stylish. The best is all on style. Style is not just the decoration, the design of an entity, its the conceptual core… not for nothing deep in the very rudiments of its history mankind has already decorated and created information.

    The best style and the highest wisdom is simplicity, clarity. Not the simplicity of the primitive, unimaginative, undeveloped, or the simplicity of a fool; but a profound simplicity, when the whole essence has been understood and all the stages have been passed through. The best filtered through.

  • New DAS

    Finally I found time to prepare and release the new long-waited DAS album I’ve been planning in my head for over 4 years or so… this is the real sound of DAS – very experimental. It consists of tracks made at very different times, some just recently, some a couple years old demos.

  • Values determine motion

    A man’s set of values determine his motif morality and motivational attitude, motion.

    For example, why do some people today serve foolish mole dictators worthy only of scorn? They are philosophically lost, do not understand values above primitive ones – they only want to fill their bellies, supposedly financially secure, not to take risks, to warm themselves in a pseudo-stability – they do not see values above and do not feel them – both those who directly execute criminal orders and those who just passively acquiesce to all this – they do not understand freedom and perspective development of the whole. This is what drives repressive officers, internet bots, passive silent people, schizophrenic lawmakers – distorted values and moral vagueness within these people. Oversized bureaucratic systems are particularly vulnerable to the lack of values because, besides their mostly senseless over-complexity and fragility, they do not bring any values.

  • Breakdowns, becoming, polarization, consciousness: various thoughts

    Man develops through random failures and all sorts oof other circumstances through the properties of his fragility.
    That is, the movement, the flow of life… Whatever he encounters, and what is actualized by experience, it is forged as a form. Either by breaking, or by making.

    Dividing into total fools and ultra smart
    Today there is a clear tendency and systematic polarization of people, avalanche-like flows of information and new technology seem to flood the ignorant and primitive, raising above and hardening the smart and sharp.
    Already here: on facebook and other same places old people and rednecks are believing, liking and actively commenting on blatant nonsense junk pictures generated by so called AI tech – even though AI is still scary and primitive – and posted for the purpose of getting money or attention by other but sort of higher fools – the middle layer of pus between fat and meat: greedy hustlers and crooks.
    And no need to say about the situation with political propaganda, populism, seduction of the masses by medias and bot-farms, there is no point in even mention: that already got big a influence, everything is obvious there – the masses of fools are growing stronger and more numerous…
    Polarization into idiots and ultra-smart people is rising like never before.

    “Human consciousness is basically a collection of neuron cells that continuously builds models of the external world and predicts their behavior.
    What is consciousness? What is the ON state of a phone stuffed with sensors and internal programs that calculate and model incoming and outgoing data?

  • Silence is golden

    The brain is not perfect – it is only “one of the early versions” of the mother nature’s self-empowered calculation-reflection machines.

    Huge, gigantic time segments of the cosmos, on which quantitative and qualitative changes take place, are extremely distant to us in terms of sensations.

    The reason is not perfect either – though when it wants to be, it is close to it. The reason can feel the god – but not those bootleg religious forms of mythology – rather simply the Highest.

    God is an entity not cognizable in the usual sense of the word – especially within the framework of still quite primitive homosapiens… the very word and concept of god as we used to know it is already a skewed, vulgarized idea…

    You can’t see some things anyway, like what is beyond the blackness of the universe – no way…
    You can feel, you can suggest, but feelings are tricky.

    All religion is just dogmatic fairy tales and propagandistic beliefs – Hollywood and images, self-deception, it’s all about average minds and below. A sense of the higher but corruptly reinterpreted into the lower.

    And even though the reason can sense the higher, it is still stuck on the guts and blood of our everyday life.

    We’re just a transitional stage to the perfect machines of the future.

    But still we’ve something, the essence is to pass this stage, to make it beautiful, clear, not to fall apart and not to shit ourselves, not to destroy our home… Man’s mission and his essence is in his work, in the aspiration to the highest.

    Live and die peacefully, at any moment, and let it be.

  • Degrees of freedom

    Freedom is a necessity for society, and in any case it will come to this because the best, intelligent people will not be intimidated anyway, they will still act in their own way, within the categorical imperative of the mind in the pursuit of the highest quality and development of life… and who drives progress but them – any unfree regime is doomed to slow decay, in fact.

    However, it is important to realize that freedom is a concept close to legal law and balancing, it is not an absolute category. All freedom is good in the context of the virtue, sanity. It is nice when in a structure there are more noble, smart and honest than ignorant and dirty, equality and freedom, such an intelligent environment will be higher. But if the society is barbaric and broken, restrictions are inevitable. Basically, as with man… if a person is well-balanced, controlled to the highest degree – can afford a wider range of actions… A sick, angry, addictive persons need support and restrictions until they become stronger.

    Yet despite all the little things and details, mother nature has something beyond our understanding – great mechanisms and principles of self-balancing systems – in general it’s simple – everything bad naturally falls off and dies – but it takes time …

  • Society as a whole

    Society is a whole entity, like a tree or a living organism… blind Darwinism applied to such a structure is blatant ignorance.

    Man is a variable being.

    Fortune and chance, unpredictability and randomness play too big a role.

    People who are pompous, egotistical, arrogant, superior, biting others, deceiving their own brothers, swaggering and lavish – do not understand much.

    Don’t be like that. Always respect others, be delicate and sensitive, silent and careful. Don’t be loud, don’t be pompous (if aren’t an artists or a clown), don’t show off. Be easy on people and yourself… Never attack first. Remember randomness and complexity. We are all in this together, we are all under the same sky.

  • War is dead

    War is dead. With the invention of nuclear weapons, war is no longer possible.

    The highest value on earth is human life… It is indeed the most complex, beautiful and valuable of all things. The stage of bloodshed has been passed and should be, we are somewhere on the verge…

    The war is dead. But the battle of minds will continue.

    Those who still play war today, especially those who start them, are hopeless fools.

  • Aesthetic nature of destruction and order

    Is the idea of destruction attractive? Yes, just like order… all this seems to be a part or a general composite model of something general and whole. What happens when we feel, express “attractive” – the inner self reflects the outer and is energized, the cognition forms itself then

    Reception of destruction, of order… sometimes we have to destroy and it is good, but sometimes we have to put order and it is also good, both beginnings in their nature are not bad and are mutually essential as black and white, as absence and presence, as yes and no. Context and quality are the keys there.

    Aesthetically, if done intelligently and qualitatively, both ideas bring pleasure – that is, they sensually stimulate positively (both cold and heat aesthetically give a positive charge) and impart some value to the mind.

  • Creation, contemplation, consumerism, possession


    True happiness is not about having things, but about making things.

    Wanting to have a lot usually comes from feeling like you’re missing out on something. Being overly focused on having things can make you bitter.

    Creation surpasses possession because it, to a certain extent, encompasses everything – including possession – as a result. Absolute truth, the categorical imperative of reason – to create.

    Contemplatiton is good and the right path, but it’s only a tool for a higher purpose. Concentrated consumerism? No, be accurate there…

    Having things can be useful too, but it’s usually more vulnerable & corrupt especially for weak minds than creating, although contemplation can mess up some people too. Messing up while creating can happen too, but it’s not as bad as other things.

    However, when analyzing people and their behavior, it is important not to forget that a person is a very changeable entity – today they are one way, tomorrow another. It is important to keep this in mind… but if today it’s 80 percent, tomorrow it’s only 20 or even less, nobody can guarantee you the tomorrow, and it’s not guaranteed that they will come at all – I mean, if you encounter toxic people, for example, excessive consumers, it’s better to immediately work on the cleanliness of your environment and not allow such individuals into your life… maybe they are normal, just temporarily sick, but we better think about today rather than tomorrow, because a person is a changeable, somewhat unpredictable creature.

    I look deeper and ponder… our world was in some way created, prepared, formula or algorithm, whatever – but the concept of creation is also inherent in us. But what’s true making, and what’s just rearranging what already exists? In any case, creation requires some initial material… there is a complexity and multiplicity of the world – as with life, where before transitioning to a qualitative-quantitative transition – the appearance of a human, or even multicellular organisms, there was a long process of creating preparatory material – effectively translating energy oxygen, for example. When you create, you try, you find…

    So, true happiness… it’s where there’s truth and a clear, perspective and reasonable path, a way to make life better, a path to the prosperity of whole life as it is. Obviously, the best thing is creation, that is, to create. But just don’t clutter…. before publishing, preparation is needed, honesty – multiplying noise is an ignoble affair.

  • The phenomenon of a sharp quantitative-qualitative transition

    The phenomenon of sharp quantitative-qualitative transition is what I favor.

    The transition of the Higgs boson into electromagnetism, sudden crystallization, the critical points in economics, revolutions…

    It gives birth to the new. Pure experimenting – what does it bring?

    The very transition of the start of the universe… Or when you are born, when you die.

    Sure such transitions, however, are always preceded by an accumulation.

  • Outer and inner

    It is very important in this world to be able to draw a clear line between one’s inner self and the outer world.

    Do not allow the random external and every passing to insult the inner integrity and peace.

    The outer world – it’s just the outer world… every experience in its essence is somehow subjective, has its own tastes and peculiarities, personal colors, but people forget that the world is primarily just a mutated reflection of oneself from the superficial reality.

    The inner world is like your house or apartment – there should be order, strong walls against rain, and you can change it, work with it. You go out into the outer world, but it is not your place to stay there permanently. So don’t take anything external that appeared necessarily as fact-reality-as-it-is, it is quite likely might be that it was a triple-multi reflections or echoes of the internal.

  • Freedom is beneficial, but it is also an abstract concept that requires clarification

    In society, between us: equal rights, not absolute freedom… Discuss actual liberties and agreements, general universal usefulness. Don’t just talk about abstract independence. Preciseness enhances truth and freedom.

  • Emotional charging

    You have to keep thinking of ways to make life better.

    Collect pluses… And information, real data, not speculative manipulations. Instead of collecting the negativity and drowning in the minus.

    Emotional charges.

    Discuss bad things less, for example. It’s about the tone and filtering. Still need to see the dirt and clean it sometimes… But in a positive posture – change and activity against bad things. There is nothing really wrong between us except the arrogance of ignorance. You’re gonna die anyway.

    A gloomy, dark style is good, but as a coolness – in moderation.
