Nearly a century old, and looking every day of it, Yoshida-ryo is very likely the last remaining example of the once common Japanese wooden university dormitory. This building was built in 1913. Organized from the very beginning to be self-administering through a dormitory association (寮自治会), the students themselves have been responsible for selecting new applicants for residency. This autonomy, however, came under full-scale assault in 1971, when the Ministry of Education began a policy of regulating or closing dormitories, which were seen as “hotbeds for various kinds of conflict.” University authorities first tried to close Yoshida-ryo completely in 1979, and after failing to overcome opposition over the next 10 years finally closed the Western Yoshida-ryo across the street.

With the death of Japan’s violent student activism, the campaign to close the dormitory subsided for a time, but in the aftermath of the 1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake there were new calls to replace the poorly aged building, which had already seen its maintenance neglected for decades by a university that had wanted to demolish it.

Klint Finley: You say you were “addicted” to virtual reality in the late 90s. How did you get started with VR and what were you doing with it?

FSK1138: During that time – I was what you would call cyberpunk – I spent days plugged into a body suit, data glove, and HMD [head mounted display]. I explored virtual worlds and was surfing the web in 3D. Searching, always searching, for others and A.I out there in the sea of information.

What sort of equipment were you using?

Virtual io HMD, Nintendo Powerglove, dual cpu pPRO.

Did you have broadband back then or was this on dial-up?

I was using dial-up but I moved to Toronto because there was faster Internet – this thing called ISDN.

Are you still using VR?

No – I think it is a very bad thing. Even back then 3D was considered bad for your eyes and brain. I don’t think we were made for this type of input.

What makes you say that?

The reaction of any one who has seen avatar – when people who have seen it talk about it they always seem to have a smile on their face – the same smile…

In fact, researchers have been changing the nanostructure of food for years, for example by adding emulsifiers to improve the texture of ice cream. It’s the emergence of technologies such as atomic force microscopy that has changed the game by finally opening a window on the nanoworld.

“We know that the food industry is looking at encapsulating certain ingredients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins or minerals,” says Frans Kampers, who researches bionanotechnologies at Wageningen University and Research Centre in the Netherlands. The idea is an attractive one. Oil-soluble nutrients can be poorly absorbed in the watery environment of the gut, with a proportion passing right through the body. Nano-encapsulation converts them to a dispersed form that is more easily taken up. Wrapping them in nano packages also extends their shelf life, masks any unpleasant tastes and, in the case of nano-emulsions, makes them invisible to the naked eye so that they don’t affect a food’s appearance.


In November 2008, the European Food Safety Authority rejected a request to approve nanosilver products for sale in the European Union, because of a lack of safety data. It is “persistent” nanoparticles like silver and silica, which don’t break down in the body, that are causing the greatest safety concerns among food researchers, says Morris.

Micrometre-sized persistent particles of silica and titanium dioxide have been used as food additives for decades, for example as whiteners in products like chewing gum, with no apparent ill effects. Make the particles smaller, and things are different: some nanoparticles seem able to penetrate the cells lining the gut, and so have the potential to travel around the body. Last December, a team led by Roel Schins at the Environmental Health Research Institute (IUF) in Düsseldorf, Germany, published research suggesting that some nanoparticles, including silica and titanium dioxide, can induce DNA damage in human intestinal cells

I just walked right in. I had studied how the Pentagon staff were dressed, and I was just like them. I wore a dark blue conservative suit. I even had a small American flag on my lapel.

I was attacking Mars, the god of War. He’s still our ruling god. If you think Mars is an extinct thing from the antique past that we can just laugh at now, forget it. Mars is still here. That is not my opinion, but my knowledge. Mars is a terrifying but sobering vision. I have had this vision of Mars—you have to do all the things at certain times of the year, and then he does come through. And he’s about 500 feet tall, he’s not very handsome, he’s very strong, he’s armored, he’s bearded in a scraggly way, he’s got the fiercest eyes of any of the gods. He makes Jupiter—Jove—look benign and effete in comparison. But Mars is kind of childish—that’s why it’s so hard to get to him. He just loves bloodbaths. This is his thing. He does it very well. And he’s always thinking up new ways to do hideous things to the human race. This is his FUN. He’s the god of War. And he’s been alive since there were humans in tribes. War is the most consistent activity of the human animal. For whatever reason, some good, and a lot bad, we’ve been doing it as a race since the cave days. Of course, some wars are justified, like World War II, fighting the Nazis, I can’t think of a better cause. But Mars has nothing to do with being fair. Mars loves bloodshed, and he is a force that’s still operating in the world—it’s a force that according to modern thinking is irrational, but nevertheless there. Freud would have called it the unconscious or something but I believe that these are actual living entities. Not ‘living’ in the way like humans living and breathing, [but] living in a way that are much beyond our capacity, because they’ll never die.

In a personal sense, men more than women have a big problem with Mars. Most soldiers from the beginning of time have been men, and still are. And the Pentagon is controlled by men. The Pentagon itself is sort of an occult shape—like a five-sided collapsed star.

I went from one men’s room to the next. I didn’t stop until I had scattered all 93 of my talismans—because 93 is a sacred number for Crowley. Then I walked out, it was all very inconspicuous. The security guard looked at me and gave me a nice look, like we’re all looking after each other.

Although GMOs have infiltrated our food supply, the results of human feeding trials have only been published on one single occasion. Unfortunately, that occasion offered some pretty disturbing findings. It found that the genetic code of GM soy can infiltrate the genetic code of the healthy bacteria in our guts - and change the genetic makeup of the healthy bacteria inside us. Nobody knows how these mutant bacteria will function inside us - yet given the proliferation of GM soy, most of the population probably already has them inside of them.

Mutating the genetic code of our healthy bacteria is incredibly dangerous because these healthy bacteria live inside us for a reason. They are our first line of immune defense and they keep us well by crowding out many harmful bacteria, fungus, and pathogens that cause innumerable diseases. But when their genetic structure is changed, who knows if they’ll be able to do this job effectively? Who knows if they’ll even be beneficial anymore? More than likely they won’t.

Because GM soy transfers its genetic code into our healthy bacteria, it’s possible that our own healthy bacteria will now produce abnormal GM proteins inside us for the rest of our lives. Mad cow disease is one example of a problem that abnormal proteins cause.

It gets worse because other GM genes may also insert themselves into our healthy bacteria and keep replicating too - and some GM genes, like those in GM corn, are responsible for creating concentrated pesticides. It’s very possible that they’re also transferring this genetic programming into the formerly healthy bacteria inside you - and creating a living pesticide factory in your gut. We can only imagine the destruction this will cause, but because most diseases are created over a period of years tracing the cause may be next to impossible.”

Archinode studio makes a very interesting suggestion concerning the use of 3D printers and industrial-scale recycling:

New York City is disposing of 38,000 tons of waste per day. Most of this discarded material ended up in Fresh Kills landfill before it closed. The Rapid Re(f)use project supposes an extended New York reconstituted from its own landfill material. Our concept remakes the city by utilizing the trash at Fresh Kills. With our method, we can remake seven entirely new Manhattan islands at full scale. Automated robot 3d printers are modified to process trash and complete this task within decades. These robots are based on existing techniques commonly found in industrial waste compaction devices. Instead of machines that crush objects into cubes, these devices have jaws that make simple shape grammars for assembly. Different materials serve specified purposes; plastic for fenestration, organic compounds for temporary scaffolds, metals for primary structures, and etc. Eventually, the future city makes no distinction between waste and supply.

Middle-class kids are taught from an early age that they should work hard and finish school. Yet 3 out of 10 students dropped out of high school as recently as 2006, and less than a third of young people have finished college.

But what if the millions of so-called dropouts are onto something? As conventional high schools and colleges prepare the next generation for jobs that won’t exist, we’re on the cusp of a dropout revolution, one that will spark an era of experimentation in new ways to learn and new ways to live.

Look at the projections of fiscal doom emanating from the federal government, and consider the possibility that things could prove both worse and better. Worse because the jobless recovery we all expect could be severe enough to starve the New Deal social programs on which we base our life plans. Better because the millennial generation could prove to be more resilient and creative than its predecessors, abandoning old, familiar and broken institutions in favor of new, strange and flourishing ones.

Imagine a future in which millions of families live off the grid, powering their homes and vehicles with dirt-cheap portable fuel cells. As industrial agriculture sputters under the strain of the spiraling costs of water, gasoline and fertilizer, networks of farmers using sophisticated techniques that combine cutting-edge green technologies with ancient Mayan know-how build an alternative food-distribution system. Faced with the burden of financing the decades-long retirement of aging boomers, many of the young embrace a new underground economy, a largely untaxed archipelago of communes, co-ops, and kibbutzim that passively resist the power of the granny state while building their own little utopias.

The cultural battle lines of our time, with red America pitted against blue, will be scrambled as Buddhist vegan militia members and evangelical anarchist squatters trade tips on how to build self-sufficient vertical farms from scrap-heap materials. To avoid the tax man, dozens if not hundreds of strongly encrypted digital currencies and barter schemes will crop up, leaving an underresourced IRS to play whack-a-mole with savvy libertarian “hacktivists.”

Our planet’s magnetic field has reversed polarity from time to time throughout its history. Some models suggest that a flip would be completed in a year or two, but if, as others predict, it lasted decades or longer we would be left exposed to space radiation. This could short-circuit satellites, pose a risk to aircraft passengers and play havoc with electrical equipment on the ground.

To test whether we would see a flip coming, Gauthier Hulot of Denis Diderot University in Paris, France, and colleagues ran computer simulations of Earth’s magnetic dynamo based on a range of plausible values for inputs such as the viscosity, electrical and thermal conductivity of the outer core, and the temperature difference across it. The model’s predictions remained consistent over this range of values for no more than a few decades, Hulot’s team will report in Geophysical Research Letters. Their result implies that we can forecast a flip only this far in advance - and then only with data that is as precise as possible. “It’s like predicting the weather,” says Hulot.

“Terrorists who want to overthrow the United States government must now register with South Carolina’s Secretary of State and declare their intentions — or face a $25,000 fine and up to 10 years in prison.

The state’s “Subversive Activities Registration Act,” passed last year and now officially on the books, states that “every member of a subversive organization, or an organization subject to foreign control, every foreign agent and every person who advocates, teaches, advises or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States … shall register with the Secretary of State.”

There’s even a $5 filing fee.”

Black Sun Gazette is kind enough to breakdown the recent State of the Union address:

Barack Obama received his wildest applause when lauding America’s businesses, and said nothing new about the bankers who have swindled America blind. The bankers were not called out by name, the name of their company, and in fact Barack Obama went out of his way to say that he’s “not interested in punishing banks.” This belies, for those who remain unsure, that Barack Obama’s “base” is, was, and necessarily must be the financial elite of this country. A large part of his so-called “jobs” program is $30 billion (a pittance compared to the amount given away to Wall Street in their bail out, to say nothing of the bloated Pentagon and State Department budgets) not for job creation, but for “community banks” (whatever that might mean). A massive public works program to repair and improve America’s crumbling infrastructure, while at the same time creating jobs is, of course, totally out of the question.

Those aren’t the only reductions that the Obama Administration has in store, however. Obama also formally announced his much rumored push for a freeze on “discretionary spending.” This spending freeze will not effect the budgets of the military-intelligence community one cent, as their budgets have been enshrined sacred cows since the Reagan Administration, just one of many of Reagan’s broader policy agendas that Barack Obama represents a continuation of.

Again, it is beyond question that Pentagon and the intelligence community need every last cent of their budget which is used to terrorize and enslave the developing world. Spending cuts will effect the people who need them most. On the chopping block are the budgets of the Department of Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Agriculture, and Transportation. Obama’s cuts also target programs like the National Park Service, the Environmental Protection Agency, and NASA. Another means of dealing with a budget shortfall entirely beyond the pale is raising taxes on businesses or the super wealthy. In fact, Obama proposed to “eliminate all capital gains taxes on small business investment”

“I CLAIM THE WORLD!” is the title of a thirty-nine volume history of Man from the Global Deluge through the modern age. It tells of the Protong, the original language of Man, and the source of universal symbols that we all speak through. It tells of the Yetinsyny, the Sons of Yeti, who have brought Man to a degraded state from their ancient nobility, who fiercely resent Men and lust for Women, but who may be redeemed by their study of Art and Science. It tells how we came from Rapa Nui (Easter Island), and how Man and the Yetinsyny have spread across the world. It is the story of Zermatism, and it was authored by the great Polish artist Stanislav Szukalski.

Zermatism was not crafted as a story to accompany Stanislav Szukalski’s copious illustration, painting and sculpture, and Szukalski did not intend for his work to be treated as a grand fiction. Zermatism is a universal science, attempting to show the interrelated nature of all arts and histories, linking all human culture to a common source. The fact that this science points to inbreeding between humans and Yeti as a source of social conflict, or speculates that heat causes gravity, or that the Zermatic Protong is essentially Polish, may surely seem to make the work preposterous, but, as ever, it may not be entirely without value, even as a mad science.

To call Stanislav Szukalski an art prodigy could be considered an understatement: at the age of six, he whittled a near-perfect figure from a pencil, a feat that attracted the attention of local media. Soon after, despite his young age, he applied and was accepted to the Fine Arts Academy in Krakow. As a prize student, he would win several awards for his art; as a rebellious youth, he was briefly expelled for questioning his professors.”

The Kook Science Resistance further explains to us how yr mom may have banged a Yeti:

“Today, you might be hard-pressed to recognise the a-human Yetinsyny among us, but, according to Zermatic theory, they have frequently positioned themselves as our cruelest leaders, be they the ancient emperors and tyrants, the medieval conquerors and kings, the Nazis, the Bolsheviks. It seems that where ever the children of the Yeti find themselves able to take the reins of power from Man, violence and imperial ambition follow.

For Szukalski, a highly visual thinker, it was readily apparent which physical characteristics would reveal a Yetinsyny: long upper lips; sharply angled, undercut noses; a certain squatness or roundness in physique; a short apeoid tail. And, always accompanying these physical quirks, are the inescapable mental characteristics: unforgiving hatred of man, owing partly to rejection on the basis of their biology; an inborn need to dominate and possess; an almost uniform inclination to Communism; a desire to cause violence and provoke terror.

However, despite the horrors that seem to follow them, there is hope for the Yetinsyny, as there is hope for all, that the burden of biology can be overcome. In his 1979 essay, “Anthropolitical Motivations”, Szukalski argues that “instead of ostracizing every Yetinsyny in every country, that they may not concoct from one of their political philosophers, Karl Marx, Mao tse Tung, Nietzsche, Bakunin, Kropotkin, or other haters of humanity, encourage them to partake in the arts: creative Art, applied arts, literature, in medicine and all forms of engineering. [...] Why then will they excel in the above branches of creative contribution? Because, as frightfully inferiority-obsessed males and females who NEVER get beautiful human women and men into their beds, they persistently dream of the IMPOSSIBLE. To endure their mental hardships they develop extraordinary patience and such perfect IMAGINATION that almost anything they dream of, they are capable of contriving. Thus, patience and imagination, together with their ANIMAL vitality, make them capable to contribute miracles of inventions in every sphere of interest. They are the nibelungs, the little pixies, the fairies of the legends of every country.””

Unlike Szukalski, the Dobbsians assert that the lineage of the Yetinsyny are the true geniuses of the human world, and that being a son of Yeti brings with it great power, or “slack”. They find no fault in the ancient Yeti, and, instead, argue the Yeti were superior to early humans— a point speculated on, albeit briefly, by Szukalski himself in his studies of the physical form of the North American Bigfoot.

The fact that the Dobbsians are presently the ones carrying the torch of Zermatic theory forward may give any scientific mind cause for pause, especially in light of the fact that their hardline, fundamentalist theological positions are utterly contrary to the methods of true Science. Indeed, it must be said that in order for Zermatism to find real grounding, it must be preserved against the intrusions of the fringe religious, and brought firmly back to the domain of scientific inquiry.”

This list seems to suggest that by 2030 we may have a very different map for sectors demanding workforce labor. There’s some interesting proposals for what the future of our employment may look like: Nano-medics, Vertical farmers, Commercial space-travel tour-guides, Memory Augmentations, Weather modification police, Waste-data handlers and Virtual Clutter organizers. The future of employment sounds promising in atleast that it has a possibility to be slightly more fulfilling with such wacky jobs coming to the forefront.
