My Pleroma-Multiverse

The union of a Soul with Spirit, in a Form ( flesh ); produces 'Christ-Consciousness'. "

..." The Pleroma Most High Father IS Love "... " The Pleroma Most High Father Loves All Equally "...

..." The true good will " IS intrinsically good...

The Holy Trinity

The Holy Trinity. The depiction is from ninth century, and found in the Church of Urschalling near Prien near Bavaria. It is interesting and seldom-encountered portray of Trinity, which unmistakably presents the Holy Spirit as a women, indicating that even in those times conceiving of the Holy Spirit as the Trinity's material principle was not unknown.

A beautiful manifestation of faith toward an unknown God

Spirits are androgynous intelligent energy that dwell in visible and nonvisible Multiverse.
Spirits can and do manifest themselves to Us, and must be regarded, first of all, as;

Masculine and Feminine Principle.
" Feminine Principle " a Nurishing-Preserving Force, and " Masculine Principle " a Creative Force.

For exoteric religious knowledge could lead to further esoteric religious experience

My Pleroma And The Esoteric-Multiverse

Writings of Plato   - Thomas Taylor - Introduction to the Philosophy and Writings of Plato

For it is not immortal, as participating of life, but as supplying divine life, and deifying life itself. Thus imparticipable intellect is an intellect which is not consubsistent with soul. In the second place, intellect, which is prior to soul, is intelligible.

Nor do they subsist, says he, together with intellect, in the same manner as those slender conceptions which are denominated universals abstracted from sensibles, according to the hypothesis of Longinus: for if that which subsists is unsubstantial, it cannot be consubsistent with intellect.

For as a deity of an intellectual characteristic is its fabricator, and both the essence and energy of intellect are established in eternity the sensible universe, which is the effect or production of such an energy, must be consubsistent with its cause, or in other words, must be a perpetual emanation from it.

For the Highest God, according to Plato, as we have largely shown from irresistible evidence, is so far from being a part of a consubsistent triad, that He is not to be connumerated with any thing; but is so perfectly exempt from all multitude, that He is even beyond being; and He so ineffably transcends all relation and habitude, that language is in reality subverted about Him, and knowledge refunded into ignorance.

Thomas Taylor - Introduction to the Philosophy and Writings of Plato

“I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.”  –  Max Planck, theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory, which won him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918

My Pleroma Multiverse
My Multiverse

   This is My Pleroma
And The Esoteric-Multiverses as I see it.

  Unmanifest Absolute: A. Aspect - A, is  The Pleroma, as per Valentinianism protological philosophy, The Higher Ogdoad, The Highest Spiritual Dimensions and The Highest Level of Consciousness, The Fullness, Perfection. Home to Spiritual Multiverses, each spiritual multiverse is a home to many spiritual dimensions, that makes The Pleroma expandable to infinity, Aeons, home to; The Most High Father, Bythos, Depthness, Profundity, Undivided Consciousness, Unlimited Potentialities and Unlimited Possibilities, The True World of The True Spiritual Reality,
The All; that is, Perfect Order.
Where the so call " I " does NOT exist.

  See also: The Unmanifest Absolute.

  Basilidian wrote;

  ...The Divinity Beyond Being; "There was when naught was; nay, even that 'naught' was not aught of things that are [even in the world of reality]. But nakedly, conjecture and mental quibbling apart, there was absolutely not even the One [the Logos of the world of reality]. And when I use the term 'was,' I do not mean to say that it was [that is to say, in any state of being]; but merely to give some suggestion of what I wish to indicate, I use the expression 'there was absolutely naught.' For that 'naught' is not simply the so-called Ineffable; it is beyond that. For that which is really ineffable is not named Ineffable, but is superior to every name that is used...

Hippolytus summarizes this condition of non-being, which transcends all being from the original treatise as follows:

"Naught was, neither matter, nor substance, nor voidness of substance, nor simplicity, nor impossibility-of-composition, nor inconceptibility, nor imperceptibility, neither man, nor angel, nor god; in fine, neither anything at all for which man has ever found a name, nor any operation which falls within the range either of his perception or conception. Such, or rather far more removed from the power of man's comprehension, was the state of non-being, when [if we can speak of 'when' in a state beyond time and space] the Deity beyond being, without thinking, or feeling, or determining, or choosing, or being compelled, or desiring, willed to create universality.

"When I use the term 'will,'" writes Basilides, "I do so merely to suggest the idea of an operation transcending all volition, thought, or sensible action. And this universality also was not [our] dimensional and differentiable universe, which subsequently came into existence and was separated [from other universes], but the Seed of all universes.", see: The Divinity Beyond Being

In The Tripartite Tractate:

He alone is the one who knows himself as he is, along with his Form and his greatness and his magnitude.

And since he has the ability to conceive of himself, to see himself, to name himself, to comprehend himself, he alone is the one who is his own mind, his own eye, his own mouth, his own Form, and he is what he thinks, what he sees, what he speaks, what he grasps, himself, the one who is inconceivable, ineffable, incomprehensible, immutable, while sustaining, joyous, true, delightful, and restful is that which he conceives, that which he sees, that about which he speaks, that which he has as thought. He transcends all wisdom, and is above all intellect, and is above all glory, and is above all beauty, and all sweetness, and all greatness, and any depth and any height.

   In principle, the way as I see it is that; The Unmanifest Absolute, aspect - A, The Pleroma is seeing as Masculine-Principal, see: Masculine and Feminine.
   The Manifest Absolute; aspect - BThe Kenoma  in A+B  and all other aspects below are seeing as a Feminine Principle. In principle, the Kenoma is of the same vibration as The Pleroma.

From my perspective and from where I stand;
" The Pleroma " is home to The Highest Undivided Consciousness and many Spiritual Multiverses.
Each spiritual multiverse is home to many spiritual dimensions; that makes
The Pleroma expandable to Infinity.
Below The Pleroma is " The Kenoma " which overlays, and manage each of The Spiritual and material Multiverses located below The Kenoma.
Each of The Multiverses located below The Kenoma; consist of several Spiritual and material dimensions that are derivatives, consecutively from the higher consciousness to the lower consciousness.
Each material dimension consist of billions of stars, planets and life forms.
Non of the live forms duplicate themselfs; they all are different.

   Another way looking at it.
   So call multiverses are nothing else but different levels of consciousness. But, it is easier to picture it like an onion layers, in which outer layer extends to infinity.
   The most inner layer is the matter. The living matter is the lowest layer of consciousness but crystallized. The incarnated Souls, when freed from this crystallized living consciousness that dwells in the matter, Us; could be teleported into any dimension that is located in any of the multiverses, and incarnate again in a most intelligent living a species in that dimension.
   That way the Soul acquire immense knowledge which will be followed by so call " The Christ-Consciousness ".
   Therefore, the Soul will be freed from further incarnations and teleported the the most advance layer of the consciousness; the outer layer of infinity, The Pleroma. Only pure love for other people can lead to that final conclusion.

   Multiverse consists of; a central spirit world aspect " C " on my chart, birthplace of Souls.
   After initial education in central spirit world, the Souls are redistributed into another 7 spiritual universes or dimensions, which in turn are overlaying another 7 material universes or dimensions.
   The Souls, known as traveller Souls, can and do travel, incarnate and reincarnate in advance life forms in all of the material universes or dimansions.
   All of the material universes or dimensions are interlocked with eachother, similar to links in a chain like relationship.

  Manifest Absolute - The Kenoma: - A+B, Aspect B, is Home to, Kenoma local Consciousness, Kenoma local Potentialities and Kenoma local Possibilities. Aspect - B in Kenoma A+B, is Sophia Achamoth and Her Sonship,The Divine Spark:
 The Divine Spark, as per Valentinianism, a protological philosophy and in Basilidians Third Sonship, is incarnated as a Spirit within the Souls of; the Old Testament figure known as Melchizedek the High Priest and King of Salem, the New Testament figure known as Jesus Christ, Buddhists-Buddha, Islam-Muhammad and other religions prophets; see: Ancient Christna. The role of " The Divine Spark " is to inform Souls, in the Noetic Absolute about existence of The Pleroma.

Basilidian wrote:

"For the world shall hold together and not be dissolved until the whole Sonship--which has been left behind to benefit the souls in the state of formlessness, and to receive benefits, by evolving forms for them [the spirit requiring a psychic vehicle for conscious contact with this plane]--shall follow after and imitate Jesus Christ, and hasten upward and come forth purified. [For by purification] it becometh most subtle, so that it is able to speed aloft through its own power, even as the first Sonship; for it hath all its power naturally consubsistent with the Light which shone down from above."

   Noetic Absolute: A+B+C, Home to aspect C-The Source, Father of our Souls, Noetic Absolute local Consciousness, Noetic Absolute local Potentialities and Noetic Absolute local Possibilities. In most esoteric religions. The Creator of our visible Universes or Dimensions. He came to the existence in the image of The Pleroma, The Logos. A powerful masculine principle, beyond our comprehension. Inteligent Living Light Spiritual Energy. To the most esoteric religions, The Father, The God. I see Him as a respectful Father of our Souls, a God but, not The Most High God.

Basilidian wrote:

... but let no mortal think that he can comprehend so great a being, "for he is more ineffable than ineffables, more potent than potencies, wiser than the wise, superior to every excellence that one can name...

In 2nd century B.C.,  Irenaeus in Against Heresies wrote:

 ...He was in the image of the only-begotten Son, and the angels and archangels created by him were in the image of the rest of the AEons. They affirm, therefore, that he was constituted the Father and God of everything outside of the Pleroma, being the creator of all animal and material substances... From this circumstance they style him Metropator,(5) Apator, Demiurge, and Father, saying that he is Father of the substances on the right hand, that is, of the animal, but Demiurge of those on the left, that is, of the material, while he is at the same time the king of all...

   Cosmos Duality: A+B+C+D: Home to aspect D: Well, we need to look into Valentinianism, a protology philosophy around year 140 AD, teaches that; the Pleroma's Anthropos and Ecclesia became parents to six pairs of Masculine-Feminine Aeons means the youngest Aeon known as The Sophia-Wisdom would become a 12th Eaon, but in Sethianism. In principle, She IS The Mother of everything below The Pleroma.
   Her action stemmed from a pure love to The Most High Father, and attempting to see Her Father without participation of Her consort; which could be seen as an attempt to impose Her Feminine-Principle over Her consort Masculine-Principle.
   It has a potential of becoming the so call high " I " which was a no no, the so call high " I " is not existent in Pleroma. All Pleroma Aeons are known as " The All ", and are seen as a unity, unified as and known as " The One "; She could as well be reabsorbed into pure light of The Most High Father.
   Therefore, Her nevertheless noble attempt gave birth to unwanted energies. Those energies were immediately removed and relocated by The Most High Father to an empty space below The Pleroma known as The Kenoma. Keep in mind that Pleroma's nature IS regarded as a Masculine-Principle.
Note here; the manifestation of The Most High Father of love to everything that came to existence; He could destroy those unwanted energies, but He did not destroy them.
   As, a consequence of those activities much later in time we had the so called series of " Big-Bangs ". Pleroma's Sophia-Wisdom daughter, known as The Sophia-Achamoth was put on charge, on management of The Kenoma and everything else below The Kenoma.
   Therefore, in Valentinians protological philosophy it makes Her a thirteenth Aeon, looking from the top down but; She dwells one level below The Pleroma known as The Kenoma, in some religions known as eight level, but in the Lower Ogdoad; She works extremely hard to fix the prior error, strive to achieve redemption of all the Spirits that either, descended or came to an existence below The Pleroma.
   The purified living intelligent energies sequentially stay in:
Pleroma's Sophia-Wisdom did stay in Unmanifest Absolute - A.
The rest of purified and unpurified living intelligent energies were relocted to The Kenoma - B
and Noetic Absolute - C.
Some partially purified and unpurified living intelligent energies landed in the Cosmos Duality: C+D+E: aspects, D. I consider aspect D, shaded area on the sketch, a home to all exoteric religions. Home to 7 spiritual dimensions, overlaying 7 material dimensions.
   And, perhaps home to so call Sethian Demiourgos, a God of all the Abrahamic and some other religions.
   His characteristics are; neither perfect good or evil. In principle He IS good but; most of the time, He sits midway, between perfect good, and I would say He is strict.
   Aspect E, in shaded area on the sketch, manifested itself as some earthbound spirits confined to matter. Known to some, me included as, the "Lower Psychism" or Archons.
   Keep in mind that, the potential of becoming an " I " manifested and still manifesting itself in activities of dark spirits or archons; an anomaly, a mutation that came to light in 1953, similar to a DNA mutation on this planet earth but, confined to matter.
   Then, as further separating from Unmanifest Absolute, Manifest Absolute-The Kenoma and Noetic Absolute; came to the existence Cosmos Duality: A+B+C+D+E, Home to aspect - E; Series of side by side Big-Bangs. Creating 7 material dimensions interlocked together similar to, links in a chain links. Dark ( unknown ) energy. In a fraction of a second conversion of non material chaotic energies to matter and antimatter, ancient collision between matter and antimatter, sun nuclear fusion generating neutrinos and other cosmic living and nonliving intelligent and non intelligent energies.

Quotation below is a best proof of the existence of The Noetic Absolute The Presence. Note, I do not consider The Presence as the Demiurge. I am certain the Demiurge rules as an aspect " D " on my sketch, which is one level below The Presence.

   Quoting the The Basilidian 2000 years ago, read: The Great Ruler | The Demiurge in Valentinianism | Ptolemy's Letter to Flora

Also, on the existence of The Pleroma and The Most High Presence, The Most High Father quoted by The Basilidian 2000 years ago, read: The Divinity Beyond Being.

In a book on Case Studies of Life Between Lives " Destiny of Souls " by Dr. Michael Newton, published in the year 2000.

Dr. Michael Newton writes:

 The Presence
" .... When you take people into the spirit world, do they see God?" This is a question I am frequently asked about at lectures and there is no short answer. I can say my subjects do feel the Source of their origins all about them in the spirit world. The more advanced explain that all souls will eventually coalesce back into conjunction with the Source of purple light.

     During the time we are meeting with the Council of Elders there is the overwhelming feeling of an even higher force which is simply called "the Presence." Many subjects state, "This is as close to God as we get."

   Typically, people who come to me do not like to use the word God in describing a higher Presence, which they feel more than see in the spirit world. They prefer to use such words as Source, or Oversoul, because the word God has been too personalized on Earth.

   My more advanced clients, who are nearing the end of their regular incarnations, indicate that they don't think the Presence is God, exactly. To them it is a deified entity, or entities, with capabilities immensely superior to those on the council. Everyone agrees that the Presence is there to assist the work of the council.

   After reviewing hundreds of case notes describing the Presence, I decided to offer a few of them in a series of quotes.
   The brilliance and drawing power of the Presence is a calling ... an eagerness . . . directed at everyone in the chamber for all of us to join it someday. It is like a parent waiting for us to grow up and unite with it in adult understanding.

There is more on the most advanced person/Soul DR. Michael Newton ever interviewed:

   Chinera was one of the most advanced clients I have ever had. No one has taken me closer to the Presence than this soul. Chinera trained in another dimension before coming to Earth several thousand years ago. Today, this client is an acupuncturist who practices a variety of healing arts.

Case 44

Dr. N: When your work as a personal guide is completed, do you expect to be assigned to the Council of Elders?
S: No, this won't happen yet. I must become a master teacher working with younger teachers ... helping them get in touch with their students on many levels.
Dr. N: How do you know this?
S: Because I am still in training here (incarnating), learning more about Earth's biological life forms.
Dr. N: Chinera, it is my belief we are together today to help each other understand certain things. Let's begin this part of our discussion by my asking you about your relationship with the Elders on your council. Begin by telling me how many you see.
S: I have twelve members on my council right now. After my last life, the four in the center of the table were the ones who questioned me about becoming more centered on Earth. I still have some blocks which need adjustment. The four on the right-hand side are from my original dimension. They are here to assist in the better utilization of the energy I brought with me into Earth's universe.
Dr. N: What about the last four members of your council?
S: The four on the left-hand side of the table act as stabilizers of universal light and sound between all the dimensions around the Earth universe. They act as a pivotal point to ground me in a physical world.
Dr. N: Can you give me some idea of what blockages are hindering your progress on Earth?
S: Primarily, the council wants me to enlarge my influence with more people. I have been resistant to extending myself. I complain to them that it would dilute my power. They disagree with my arguments about spreading myself too thin.
Dr. N: I know the feeling. Do you accept this evaluation?
S: (long pause) I know they are right but I still feel sometimes I am an alien on Earth.
Dr. N: Tell me, Chinera, have you ever appeared with members of your council to discuss certain students you work with?
S: Yes, I have briefly.
Dr. N: Then perhaps you can help me understand the progression of soul advancement. Where would you classify yourself?
S: I'm working on being a master teacher.
Dr. N: Would the next elevation above this level of a guide be a position on the council?
S: Not necessarily. There are many other choices for specializations. One might not be suited to be on a council.
Dr. N: Let's say you were suited and were given a seat on the council and were effective there. Where could you go next as a soul?
S: (hesitates in responding) To the place of the Oneness.
Dr. N: Is this represented by the Presence at council meetings?
S: (vaguely) Into that essence, yes.
Dr. N: Describe the Oneness—is it an oversoul?
S: I believe it is many who are One ... it is the creation center as I know it... it is where the creators of new souls shape light energy for certain functions.
Dr. N: Chinera, please describe this process further for me.
S: I... can't tell you too much ... it is where the energy of new souls is sparked off the oversoul. Where we help the young ones grow, to find their unique identity.
Dr. N: Is the Oneness what we call God?
S: It is a divineness.
Dr. N: Since you have said this divinity could be composed of many who are One, are they the ultimate deity of all universes and all dimensions connecting these universes, including our spirit world?
S: (long pause) I don't think so.
Dr. N: Where do you think the essence of the Presence comes from?
S: (faintly) Everywhere ... (stops)
Dr. N: How do you know of these things?
S: I have a mentor on the council... we talk a lot... my friends and I have flashes of thought... and we ask questions about the ultimate reality.
Dr. N: When you talk to your mentor and your friends of a force that might be above even the Presence, what have you heard and felt?
S: It may be the same force of which the Presence is a part, I don't know ... it is... massive, but soft... powerful... yet gentle. There is a breath ... a whisper ... of sound ... so pure ...
Dr. N: (placing the palm of my hand on the subject's forehead) Stay with these thought fragments, Chinera. Float with them as far as they will take you toward the sound, (speaking in a whisper myself) Is this sound created by some sort of light energy?
S: No,
the sound creates all... including light and energy.
Dr. N: Move closer as if you were floating without effort—closer toward the origin of the sound, (a command) NOW, WHAT DO YOU SEE AND HEAR?
S: I'm at the edge ... I can't...
S: (quietly, with great difficulty) I... with my friends...
when we have unified our minds to the sound we see pictures in our minds... they are... geometric designs... aligned in patterns...(stops)
Dr. N: (now softly coaxing) A little further ... just beyond ... what is there?
S: I... feel... the sound holds this structure ... and ... makes it move ... shifting and undulating ... creating everything. It is a reverberating deep bell... then a high-pitched pure humming ... like an echo of... (stops)

Dr. N: Reach in, Chinera, one last effort. An echo of what?>
S: (a deep sigh)
MOTHER ... full of love ... singing to her child
Click on: Read some of the pages right here.

Please note, what Chinera, being in spirit world but, outside this magnificent geometrical structure said:

S: (quietly, with great difficulty) I... with my friends... when we have unified our minds to the sound we see pictures in our minds... they are... geometric designs... aligned in patterns...(stops)
Then again:
S: I... feel... the sound holds this structure ... and ... makes it move ... shifting and undulating ... creating everything. It is a reverberating deep bell... then a high-pitched pure humming ... like an echo of... (stops)

Dr. N: Reach in, Chinera, one last effort. An echo of what?
S: (a deep sigh) A MOTHER ... full of love ... singing to her child.

   It seems to me, this pure sound that, creates all of the energies, is The Most High Father's " Feminine-Principle " that animates whole universe, including, see: " The All " in The Pleroma.

The manifestation of First Space, aspect " C " is seen by some as the lower or middle Pleroma ( note: The Most High Father, aspect " A " was not manifested yet ), is also seen in; the Bridal-Chamber, as well in the regions of the First Commandment and up to the regions of the First Mystery which is the Mystery of the Father. Within the Veil, within the First Commandment say: " To Love God above all things, and thy neighbour as thyself " then the Sixth Mystery, which is the manifestation of Second Space, aspects " D and E ": The Spirit is strong, but the flesh is weak. Do not fall into temptation ", think Karma, Soul incarnation and reincarnation. The soul, sex, temptation, downfall and regeneration are found hidden within the Sixth Mystery. see: Pistis Sophia and Mysteries.

   I think that the Feminine Principle, from the ancient times is known to us as The Holy Ghost is using this ( unknown ) dark energy to position, form, shape, and permeate everything.
   Then, we came to the existence, Us; from that cosmic primordial soup of this organic world located in the inorganic part of the universe we came to the existence. We are one of the living a species, that are made up of the Soul the carrier of a Spirit that incarnates in Homo Sapiens a species, Us. Therefore we are made up of intelligent living energies like Soul, Spirit and Matter.

Mme. Blavatsky

 Man is also triune: he has his objective, physical body; his vitalizing astral body (or soul), the real
man; and these two are brooded over and illuminated by the third -- the sovereign, the immortal spirit.
   When the real man succeeds in merging himself with the latter, he becomes an immortal entity.
"Christ - the true esoteric SAVIOUR? - is no man, but the DIVINE PRINCIPLE in every human being. He who strives to resurrect the Spirit crucified in him by his own terrestrial passions, and buried deep in the 'sepulchre' of his sinful flesh; he who has the strength to roll back the stone of matter from the door of his own inner sanctuary, he has the risen Christ in him. The 'Son of Man' is no child of the bond-woman - flesh, but verily of the free-woman - Spirit, the child of man's own deeds, and the fruit of his own spiritual labour." Blavatsky, Collected Writings, 8:173. see: Son.

Two Becomes Three - The Reflection in Matter of Cosmic Creation, see: Sound and Harmony

   The union of spirit with matter in form produces consciousness (the Son aspect). The entire human process of reproduction and birth is laden with reflective symbols of the Cosmic creation. During the process of creation, the Masculine - Feminine polarization occurs, in turn reflecting the properties of spirit and matter respectively as the Masculine and Feminine poles.

   Symbolically, Man as a species represents the Son aspect (the fecundation of matter and spirit), because, of all a species forms, the indwelling God is most fully present in the human a species. Man represents the half way point between the tiny atom of matter and the Cosmic Atom of the universe. It is said:

The Whole Creation Groaneth...   awaiting the coming of the Sons of God

   That is because man in the collective sense literally becomes the "hands and feet" of God on the Earth plane - the middle ground of manifestation between the microcosm of the atom and the macrocosm of galaxies and galactic clusters. When fully Divinized, the individual human becomes an instrument of the Divine on Earth, carrying out the Divine purpose. Man becomes the middle entity between Spirit and Matter. In this threesome we find the trinity of the Christian religion: Father, Son, Holy Ghost. Matter is the Holy Ghost because it is the shadow (ghost) of spirit and is matter consisting of living atoms and imbued with all the intelligence that emanates from the Creator (hence, for example, the complex crystal forms and atomic bonding forming molecules capable of reproducing themselves).

The Trinity of Manifestation

Spirit Consciousness Matter
Father Son Holy Ghost

   In Vedic thought the trinity is spoken of in terms of the stages of the cyclic appearances of the manifested universe spun out from the One entity called Brahman, Brahmam and other various titles by diverse religions. Brahman is said to be above, below, behind and within all manifestation. In the Vedas, the three stages of the manifested universe are identified as - creation (Brahma), preservation (Vishnu or Mahavishnu), destruction (Shiva or Rudra). These stages may also be denoted as Generation, Organization, Destruction which in their entirety make up the One - G. O. D.

  Esoteric Christianity utterings:

 I think that Valentinian Divine Spark and Melchizedek person-spirit is one and the same, the manifestation of a Higher Spirit The Pleroma: Man, The Anthropos, The New Testament Son of Man, The Old Testament, the priest of God Most High, Gen 14:18-20.see: Ancient Christna. In my opinion allegorizing to a Spirit that dwell's in our incarnated Souls. Soul as a median intelligent energy is needed for the Spirit to be able to descend to the living matter. Otherwise, a true living Prophet is a person's Soul incarnated with Melchizedek Spirit. The Soul and the Spirit need eachother in order to manifest themselves in the living matter.

   So, I started developing an interst, to follow up on first 200 years of Christianity. Therefore, chart on the left is reflecting what I believe. Extensive reading on Esoteric Christianity about Valentinius, Basillideans and others make me believe that our World, the Planet Earth is run by Spirits, aspect D in A+B+C+D that are confined to matter. Since the year 2008, for 7 years I had been in touch with spirit entities. On few different ocasions, flying above 33 thousand feet, communication between me and the talking spirits was cut off. That proved to me beyond any doubt that those spirits are confined to this planet earth and run all exoteric religions and cults of this organic world located in the inorganic part of the universe. Its seems to me that what is conceived on earth stays on earth.

A word of Caution: Soon you move from exoteric ( where you have a true priest mediating on your behalf ) religious practice and believes into the esoteric religious practice and believes, you ARE on your own. I guaranty you that some earthbound spirits; the masters in managing the life on this planet earth but confined to matter, immediately will attached themselves to you, and WILL try to instill, this so call high " I " into you. Telling you that you are the master of the Universe, the God that descended to this, I call it hell; look around you, the live on this planet earth IS hell.
One need to realize though; that even those Spirits can manifest workings of a Creator, The Father, The Source, The God. That is exactly what did happened to me. So, be aware about it. Ultimately we all pray to the same Creator, The Father, The Source, The God.
A Tridentine Mass. A beautiful manifestation of faith toward an unknown God;
see: Tridentine Mass Vs. Vatican II Mass.

   With Us, came to existance the "Elementary", the "Shell", the "Spook", read below.

    I think that challenges and difficulties of Karma, are imposed on us by a medium or a mediator by way of the "Elementary", the "Shell", the "Spook"; the animal elements or power of desire..., absorbing after death, after the Soul departed, that which it has collected ( through its insatiable desire to live ) during life, i.e. all the astral vitality as well as all the impressions of its material acts and thoughts..., forms the dregs of the animal mind; the "Elementary", the "Shell", the "Spook" or Kama rupa, this has life in it, but in varying degrees hardly any consciousness and is confined to matter.
Denying Soul's ability to incarnate and reincarnate, could motivate a medium or a mediator and must drawn into the currents of its thoughts, when as it were by proxy the "Elementary", the "Shell", the "Spook" in order to impose on us theirs will.
   Mediumship; animal, uncontrolled, negative and automatic, the "Lower Psychism", by way of the "Elementary", the "Shell", the "Spook" could take a negative approach. It could attack your Soul through your flesh, by instilling in your mind a thought of, suicide, narcissism, extreme selfishness, being angry, reckoning it all together; bad karma, like taking advantage of people when they are the most vulnerable, and other evil works.
   Mediatorship; Semi-Divine, controlled, intelligently applied, positive, the "Higher Psychism", by way of the "Elementary", the "Shell", the "Spook" will do positive work: good karma, like to motivate you to be compassionate, loving, forgiving etc.
   Keep in mind that a mediator could also act as a medium for its own reasons, think (testing).

The Universal Law of Harmony

   This law supersedes even the fundamental law of Karma. For " true good will " is intrinsically good; its value is wholly self-contained and utterly independent of its external relations. Therefore, " true good will " is the supreme potential of balance. The purpose of Karma is to attain harmony. If you throw a rock into a still pond you will disturb the harmony of that pond, you are the cause. The effect is a splash and series of waves on the surface of water that flows back and forth until the harmony is restored. Consequently, your incompatible actions with " true good will " will flow into the Universe and eventually will fell back on you, lifetime after life time, until your own " true good will " is restored.

  ... More than one great scholar has stated that there never was a religious founder, whether Aryan, Semitic or Turanian, who had invented a new religion, or revealed a new truth. These founders were all transmitters, not original teachers. They were the authors of new forms and interpretations, while the truths upon which the latter were based were as old as mankind. Selecting one or more of those grand verities -- actualities visible only to the eye of the real Sage and Seer -- out of the many orally revealed to man in the beginning, preserved and perpetuated in the adyta of the temples through initiation, during the mysteries and by personal transmission -- they revealed these truths to the masses. Thus every nation received in its turn some of the said truths, under the veil of its own local and special symbolism; which, as time went on, developed into a more or less philosophical cultus, a Pantheon in mythical disguise ...

--Secret Doctrine

Mme. Blavatsky

The origin of all religions — Judaeo-Christianity included — is to be found in a few primeval truths, not one of which can be explained apart from all the others, as each is a complement of the rest in some one detail. And they are all, more or less, broken rays of the same Sun of truth, and their beginnings have to be sought in the archaic records of the Wisdom-religion. Without the light of the latter, the greatest scholars can see but the skeletons thereof covered with masks of fancy, and based mostly on personified Zodiacal signs.

The Blessed Virgin Mary, as a portrayal of The Divine Feminine; must be recognized in dogma of
the Church, as a Mediatrix / Co-Redemptrix participating in the works of Jesus Christ.

 " The workings of the human body are an analogy for the workings of the universe. " --
  Leonardo da Vinci (1452 - 1519)

   ... The true prophet has no need for sanctimoniousness. We call it exactly as we see it, and if the language offends, we have absolutely no care, because it is not the prophet's duty to please people but to inform them of what they can expect when they continue to act as ever they have acted for thousands of years.
   And, it is a greater one who is not afraid to be ribald, than one who pretends to be holy. And that is the measure of the False Prophet, for the False Prophet is one who knows not how to laugh, to be all people to all people, and has no respect for the truly serious and solemn and the sublime, yet pretends to be serious when it comes time to reprimanding everybody else, calling them all sinners, while he sins in his closet, and takes himself so seriously that one expose too many eventually unmasks him and takes him out.
   To be a Son of God, one must come down to the level of the Sons of Men and find them fair (fair game for pranks in some, but not all, cases!) (and not only the Daughters of Men, are to be sought, either!) ...

~~~Count Welldone. Past Regent of the Ordre des Illumines Veritas.

In summary:

All Souls, Spirits in entire Universe are equal. There is no so called higher or lower " I ". Each of said Souls and Spirits perform a function according to; Local Consciousness, Local Potentialities and Local Possibilities. That way we all are as One.

    The Intuitive Wisdom of The Holy Ghost, " The Feminine-Principle " MUST take over the power from the brute force
of the " Lower Psychism " " Masculine-Principle " which IS confined to matter, imposed on Us, the homos sapiens; by any establishment accepting the ancient Babylonian power grub energy into its systems and operations.
    No matter whether it was or is a cyvilian or ecclesiastical organization. The ancient Babylonian energy, will pervert any of the said organizations intentions into an evil type of acclivities like; wars, blood sacrifices, revenge, fear and suffering etc.
    Therefore this ancient Babylonian energy is trying to wrestle, the Nurishing-Preserving energies from the " Feminine Principle " of The Holy Ghost, a Nurishing-Preserving Force, and turn it into the ancient Babylonian style male destructive force.
    I can see, this ancient Babylonian style male destructive force, is manifesting itself in governments and countries, where there are huge armies and huge, protological, soteriological, eschatological and ecclesiastical organizations.

    Our Souls have a free will, just as we have it. Forcefully sending massive numbers of Souls back home is very dangerous.
If the Souls start refusing incarnating on our earth. Therefore, stop importing good, loving energy to this planet earth; this earth will become barren, bleak and lifeless. LOL, then the " Lower Psychism ", confined to matter will have to bash each-other. Nothing else alive will stay on this earth.

    The lobbyists of every government are working towards the same goal of one religion, one power hungry government, having as a long term agenda, contrary to " true good will ", contrary to good Karma, wanting to; eliminate 93% of earth's population, see: NWO-Depopulation.

" The Logos-Wisdom is the principle of all Divine and Esoteric Revelations. She has the characteristics of being the indwelling revealer of God. She IS the active principle and the transmitter of all Divine knowledge as well the cosmological cause of all creation. "

About 300 people attended a downtown prayer vigil Wednesday to protest proposed changes to San Antonio's anti-discrimination ordinances.

The crowd was led in Spanish and English prayers by local pastors in front of City Hall and then walked to the City Council chambers, where more than 200 people had signed up to speak on the policy changes.

In addition to consolidating several policies into one, the proposal would add protections for sexual orientation, gender identity and veteran status.

“We need our prayers to touch our council members,” Pastor Charles Flowers said. “Let them vote 'no' to this ordinance, and 'yes' to the reign of the kingdom of God.”

Richard Morales, a member of the Jesus Crew street ministry and one of many attendees who followed organizers' instructions to wear blue, said he doesn't see a need for the changes.

“We see this as an infringement on our freedom of speech, our freedom of religion; and to impose penalties,” he said, regarding fines proposed for those who violate the ordinance, “Where is the equality there?”

Flowers also urged protesters to attend the council's B session on Aug. 28, which will be the first time the full body deliberates the anti-discrimination proposal.

Reuters Health Information (2007-10-18): Hepatitis A vaccine, immune globulin both suitable for postexposure prophylaxis

Public Health

Hepatitis A vaccine, immune globulin both suitable for postexposure prophylaxis

Last Updated: 2007-10-18 13:39:09 -0400 (Reuters Health)

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Findings from a new study show that hepatitis A vaccine offers comparable postexposure prophylaxis as immune globulin, which is known to be highly effective in preventing hepatitis A.

In certain high-risk groups, however, immune globulin may still offer the best protection. On the other hand, the vaccine offers certain advantages over immune globulin, including long-term protection, and is likely to be the preferred choice in many clinical situations, according to a report in The New England Journal of Medicine released Thursday.

The publication coincides with updated prophylaxis recommendations issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice, appearing in the October 19th issue of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. The NEJM study results prompted the revisions.

A key change in the guidelines is the recommendation that people between 12 months of age and 40 years receive the hepatitis A vaccine for postexposure prophylaxis rather than immune globulin.

The study involved 1090 subjects in Kazakhstan, between 2 and 40 years of age, who had come into contact with hepatitis A patients. The subjects were randomized to receive the vaccine or immune globulin within 14 days of exposure. The main outcome measure was the occurrence of laboratory-confirmed, symptomatic hepatitis A within 15 to 56 days of exposure.

The average patient age was 12 years and most subjects received prophylaxis during the second week following exposure, lead author Dr. John C. Victor, from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and colleagues note.

The percentage of infected subjects in the vaccine group was 4.4%, not significantly different from the 3.3% rate noted in the immune globulin group.

"The biggest finding we made was that the vaccine really does appear to work just about as good as immune globulin, at least in the healthy persons 2 to 40 years of age whom we studied," Dr. Victor told Reuters Health.

"Importantly," he pointed out, "our study put the vaccine to a pretty tough test, because most persons received vaccine in the second week postexposure, well into the incubation period of the virus. And vaccine passed."

Still, Dr. Victor emphasized that the vaccine may not be the right choice for all people, adding that although the difference in efficacy compared with immune globulin was not statistically significant, it might in some circumstance be clinically relevant.

Clinicians should "consider this possible difference," he advised, "and weigh it with the person's risk of infection, likelihood of severe illness with hepatitis A if infected, and vaccine's advantages over immune globulin when deciding with the patient whether to use vaccine or immune globulin."

The updated CDC guidelines for postexposure prophylaxis include:

--Using the vaccine as the first choice in patients between 12 months and 40 years of age.

--Using immune globulin as the first choice in patients over 40 years.

--Using immune globulin in children younger than 12 months, immunocompromised individuals, persons with chronic liver disease, and those with a contraindication to the vaccine.

The guidelines also discuss hepatitis A prophylaxis for people traveling to or working in endemic areas. The vaccine is the preferred option for younger healthy persons, while a combination of the vaccine and immune globulin is advised for older adults, immunocompromised adults, chronic liver disease patients, or patients with other chronic medical conditions.

frankenstein 1970 title card

The Film: Frankenstein 1970 (1958)

The Principles: Written by Mary Shelley, George Worthing Yates, Aubrey Schenck, Charles A. Moses & Richard H. Landau Directed by Howard W. Koch Acted by Boris Karloff, Tom Duggan, Jana Lund, Donald Barry, Charlotte Austin, Irwin Berke, Rudolph Anders, Norbert Schiller, John Dennis and Mike Lane

The Premise: The last living descendent of the Frankenstein family plots to resurrect his ancestor’s monster using parts from a film crew making a horror movie in his Bavarian castle.

Is It Good?: No, and that’s a shame given the promise of a “meta” Frankenstein with Karloff on hand to poke holes in his most iconic role. Instead, this is a turgid retread that feels akin to an inbred sequel rather than the the first two James Whale films.

The opening is a beautifully shot laundry list of horror cliches (for the time), with a girl running through a dark forrest from a twisted thing that corners her into wading waist deep into a pond. She screams, he strangles her and in case it isn’t already obvious…the director yells “cut.” It’s a movie-within-a-movie. It’s also the last scene with any real atmosphere, since the rest of the film is shot with a flat, locked-off camera under some of the hottest lighting you’ve ever seen. The promise of a proto-Scream begins and ends here; because unlike that film, which knowingly trades on the horror tropes and works as a successful entry into the genre, this is simply a horror movie where the victims just happen to be making a horror movie.

The rest of the film is a depressing drag, as an aging Karloff limps, hunched through the two or three sets they’ve built/borrowed. There’s something cruel about the number of stairs the director has his star ascend/descend throughout the film. Cruel to Karloff—who is totally game even as he looks ready to collapse—and cruel to the audience, who have to watch scene after scene of characters in transit. Even Karloff’s purred dialogue begins to feel like padding after a while. He places dramatic pauses between nearly every line of pseudoscientific garbage he’s been given, creating a word salad with no meaning, no beginning and no end.

That’s representative of the movie as a whole. It’s formless, with similar scenes of Karloff mumbling to himself in the lab repeated endlessly throughout the running time. Each scene should bring new information or add a dramatic wrinkle, but they don’t. Instead, the doctor works out of sight and away from the rest of the cast for 70% of the movie. When Frankenstein is finally discovered by one his caretakers, what might have been a dramatic, interesting scene is spoiled by lazy blocking. The two men stand across the room from one another, the caretaker begging Frankenstein not to kill him (as if the 70-year-old could either catch or overpower him). By the time Frankenstein hypnotizes the other man with a scalpel, it’s clear that any excitement in this film is going to take place off screen.

Which brings me to “The Monster.” Warner Bros. made this movie, and it’s clear they had neither the rights to the classic Jack Pierce design, nor the creative energy to think of something new. Instead, they wrap the monster in gauss and carve two jack-o-lantern triangles where his eyes should be. It almost works as a piece of minimal design, but like everything else here, it’s just another example of the film’s empty promises. You want a meta horror film? Too bad! You want a great, final performance by Karloff in a Frankenstein movie? Too bad! You want Frankenstein’s monster in a Frankenstein movie? TOO. BAD.

frankenstein 1970

Random Anecdotes: Poor Karloff. He’s acting predominantly with his neck, pushing his head as far away from his shoulders as possible. Like an agitated turtle. And I’m not sure if it occurred to anyone else, but Carl Fredrickson from Up must have been modeled at least in part on Karloff.

Apparently, this was shot in eight days. Like Tom Scharpling famously said of Robert Rodriguez’s infamously inexpensive movies, “it’s not like they passed the savings on to the audience.”

The title, Frankenstein 1970, makes no sense. The film crew are making their movie to celebrate the “230th anniversary” of Frankenstein and your guess as to what that means is as good as mine. If they’re going by the publication of the book, 1970 would be close to 80 years off. That said, this movie exists in a world where Frankenstein was a real doctor who really created a monster. The only problem with that is when we see the doctor’s birth and death date on a headstone, 1970 still doesn’t wind up being the 230th anniversary of anything.

The film was released in 1958 and even if the filmmakers could have begun to imagine how much the world was about to change in the next twelve years, they exerted NO effort to predict any kind of future.

Is It Worth A Look?: For Frankenstein completists only. That said, it’s currently streaming through Warner Archive Instant.

Cinematic Soulmates: If there are other movies like this, I’m not sure why you’d want to seek them out. The Black Sleep, maybe?

EADS Defence & Security and Premium AEROTEC GmbH Extend Use of HyperWorks

Altair Engineering, Inc. announced that EADS Defence & Security and Premium AEROTEC GmbH, a wholly owned EADS subsidiary, have extended their use of HyperWorks. EADS Defence & Security first started using HyperWorks' optimization solution, OptiStruct in 2005. The following year, HyperMesh was selected as the preferred finite element (FE) pre-processing solution for analysis departments and HyperView, the suite's FE post-processing technology, followed shortly after. HyperMesh and HyperView are heavily used for Eurofighter support and enhancement tasks as well as for the structural development of future aviation products. Premium AEROTEC GmbH is using HyperWorks to aid in the development of all the Airbus programs they support.

"We see a growing need for simulation and optimization within the aerospace industry and decided therefore to extend our use of HyperWorks," said Franz Josef Weiss, CAE Requirement Manager at EADS Defence & Security, Germany. "HyperMesh allows our engineers to get better FE models in a shorter time. Thus, we can quickly prepare accurate models of complex composite components for analysis. OptiStruct is an optimization tool that supports us in particular with the structural concept development, in order to meet aggressive weight targets of modern aircraft structures."

"We are very pleased with the broad expansion of HyperWorks at EADS Defence & Security," said Dr. Michael Hoffmann, Altair Vice President EMEA. "All of our HyperWorks products are continuously enriched with valuable input from customers like EADS Defence & Security. This helps us stay in close contact with the industry in order to provide the simulation technology required to develop today's modern aircraft systems. From streamlining CAE processes to providing what has become the de facto standard for structural optimization in the aerospace industry (OptiStruct), we look forward to increasing our cooperation with EADS Defence & Security and I am confident that both parties will continue to mutually benefit."

It’s a rare thing when a movie markets itself at the nerdvana that is San Diego Comic Con before making its world premiere at a cinema celebration as prestigious as the Venice Film Festival. But this is exactly the incredible journey Alfonso Cuarón’s upcoming Gravity is making. The science-fiction thriller that marks his long-awaited follow-up to the three-time Academy Award-nominated sci-fi drama Children of Men follows the harrowing quest of two astronauts who are stranded in space when their spacewalk is interrupted by their shuttle’s unexpected destruction. Fronted by A-listers Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, Gravity could prove a rare commercial hit for Cuarón. But in a surprisingly candid interview with The Huffington Post, the fascinating filmmaker suggests its not box office bankability that drives him.

Early on, major box office draw Robert Downey Jr. was attached to star, but in this interview—which is absolutely worth reading in its entirety—Cuarón is quick to share why he’s grateful the Iron Man became detached from Gravity. After admitting part of the problem was that it took four and a half years to get Gravity into production, he admits:
“And also it was very clear that the technology we were going to use -- it was not the most compatible thing for what Robert is the best at. That is, he takes one scene and he just starts riffing. And because of the technology that we use, it's pretty much limited. We have to preprogram the film before shooting.”

Of course Downey’s ballsy penchant for riffing is a major part of what made the Iron Man movies such a popular property. But to be perfectly frank, Cuarón had no time for that on this shoot. Because of the cutting edge tech involved in its production to achieve the weightlessness required for most of the narrative, there was no room for ad-libbing. Instead, a great deal of preparation went into every shot of the film before shooting even began. He explains:
“But that's the thing, both George and Sandra, we had endless conversations before. We animated the whole film before. We could have released an animated version with the voices of Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. We watched it and we gave suggestions and if they had notes or ideas, then it was just about programming the whole thing. It was amazing because, yes, they changed quite a lot, relatively speaking. But it was always in the context of what was there already.”

You can learn more about the special tech employed in Gravity’s production by checking out our live blog of Cuaron’s shared Comic Con panel with Marc Webb (The Amazing Spider-Man 2) and Edgar Wright (The World’s End). And be sure to check out the trailer here.

Gravity will make its world premiere in Venice Film Festival on August 28th. A theatrical release in the US will follow on October 4th.

How to Prevent the Costly Misuse of Cloud Services

By Guest Author  |  Posted 10-22-2015 Print Email

A large software company that lacked a coherent cloud strategy found out the hard way that its employees were racking up $1 million per month on unchecked cloud services.

By Andy Lewis

Four years ago, the business side of a large, rather successful San Francisco area software company decided that in order to improve its time to market, the company's application developers would start using the cloud.

Unfortunately, the business side didn't consult with the IT department, in part because they didn't trust IT's ability to launch an agile and scalable cloud in a timely manner. As a result, the app developers began signing up for monthly, service-based subscriptions with Amazon Web Services (AWS) without any governance from IT.

The app developers' initial cloud projects started small—and scored some admirable successes. Pretty soon, however, it seemed like every app developer at the company was using AWS or another cloud vendor. The business' cloud costs grew rapidly during the next 6-12 months and eventually reached $1 million per month.

The software company was hemorrhaging money due to its employees' unsupervised use of the cloud. It was common, for example, for an app developer to rent space on AWS for a month, but use it for only a few days (or, in some instances, a few hours). And as the business side had allowed the app developers to sign-up for cloud services willy-nilly, using either personal or corporate credit cards, the software company lacked a clear overview of its cloud usage. Consequently, it was difficult to control its cloud costs.

This unwieldy state of affairs persisted for two years, during which time the company's cloud expenditures continued to mushroom. Finally, a fiscal slump led the company to re-examine its operating costs, and the cloud services' undisciplined and escalating spending finally received some long overdue attention.

The software company brought us in to fix its cloud problems. Over the course of six months, we produced a cloud strategy for the business and gradually transitioned its sprawling array of clouds to a single private cloud, which is centrally managed by the IT department. This maneuver produced the desired effect of both empowering the IT staff and putting them back in charge of the company's technology.

Now, the app developers all use the company's private cloud which, thanks to the IT staff's oversight, has slashed the business's cloud-related costs by 40 percent from their previous height. In addition, the company's digital assets are now protected by IT-run data back-up and disaster recovery plans. Moreover, with its cloud operations safely back in order, the IT staff is focusing their efforts on delivering technology solutions that align with the company's business strategy and help achieve its principal goals.

Cloud Strategy, What Cloud Strategy?

The San Francisco software company's ordeal is hardly unusual. Only one in four enterprises possesses a coherent cloud strategy, according to a just-published IDC global survey of 3,643 respondents at enterprises actively using the cloud with multiple workloads. The survey also found that 32% of enterprises have no cloud strategy, 11% have an opportunistic strategy, and 32% are operating on an ad-hoc basis, basically winging it.

This poor performance isn't particularly surprising. After all, cloud computing is still a relatively new technology—in this YouTube video, I describe today's cloud platforms as being Cloud 2.0—so a certain amount of muddling through in the early stages of adoption is hardly unexpected.

Another reason why some enterprises are struggling with a coherent cloud strategy is because they acted too hastily. Many companies feel an enormous amount of pressure, as I've learned from conversations with executives in the technology, health care and manufacturing industries, to be using the cloud. One of the chief driving factors behind this rash business behavior is the fear of their organization being perceived as lacking in innovation. As a result, they too often rush into action—and end up picking the wrong cloud platform.

Here are five tips to keep in mind as you develop or overhaul your company's cloud strategy:

Ask the right questions

In order to ask the business side the correct questions, IT needs to think like the business side. For starters, you must understand the company's business strategy, its chief competitors and emerging players, and any potential new areas of revenue.

Ask the right people

If your organization isn't using the cloud yet, you need to know your company's current assets such as hardware, software and talent. In short, what have we got and how are we using it? Also, you need to understand and anticipate your company's future growth (or contraction).

If you've inherited a public, private or hybrid cloud or a mishmash of shadow clouds are underway at your organization, you need to track the costs. Start by finding out who is using the cloud and what services.

Your chief financial officer is a natural ally in both of these scenarios.

Listen, listen, listen

When discussing cloud usage, you need to tap into your right brain and truly listen to the business side and hear what they are saying. Also, you and your staff should find ways to bond with the business side and develop a trust-based, mutually respectful relationship. This takes a significant amount of time and effort, but when done right, your heartfelt efforts with the business side can produce a strong working partnership between you and them.

Be an asset

IT is undergoing a paradigm shift as its role changes from being a supplier of services to being the provider of the technology that drives a company's business. However, IT is still seen in many organizations today as a business expense, not as a valued company asset. To change this perception, I urge IT departments to hire a sales force and actively market IT in its organization.

Keep evolving

Once your cloud is safely launched (or relaunched), it's time to consider your next move. You've demonstrated to the business side that IT knows cloud. Now, build on that. But focus your time and energy on business outcomes, not IT outcomes.

Tear Off the Band-Aid

Finally, let me end with a few cautionary words. A costly and avoidable problem I've frequently observed at large businesses is a tendency to not act after an organization realizes it has selected the wrong cloud.

These giants of industry tend to endure their miserable situation, which often grows larger and more expensive, as happened with the San Francisco area software company. Instead, they need to take immediate action.

Any delay in transitioning from the wrong cloud to the right cloud affects an organization. The production cycle of new products or services at large businesses is typically delayed by 6-12 months due to using the wrong cloud. Also, these large organizations usually incur an additional 30-60% in operating costs. In such situations, it's best to rip off the Band-Aid and start anew. Sure, it sometimes hurts, but no one ever promised IT would be easy.

Discorder October 2015

Skim Milk

Bringing A Light Glow

“I think that any artist would be thrilled that anyone is still even listening to you after you’re dead,” explains Sam Davidson, the man behind the moniker Skim Milk. “I don’t see how an artist in any medium would not like that.” And in his latest genre defying record Ghosts of Jazz, the issue of musical legacies is at the forefront of Davidson’s mind.

Yet for Davidson, the “Ghosts of Jazz” aren’t intangible or abstract concepts buried in his music, but samples of actual jazz records incorporated into his songs. “I feel like these little sounds are the legacies of these musicians that have been dead for decades and decades,” says Davidson. By using these antiquated sounds in his own music he’s “kind of bringing them back to life.”

And mining music’s past for gems to embed into his own music is what Davidson does best. “In one song I’ll have the thumb snap of Miles Davis, or a ride cymbal that Jo Jones played on a recording in 1942, and then there’s a bass part from Paul Chambers from 1957,” he explains. His songs are sprinkled with musical allusions to the jazz era, quoting some of the artists that embody what he sees as “the true flavour of jazz.”

Discorder October 2015

“What I’m really after when I’m looking for a sample is something that captures that early jazz essence,” Davidson states. Even with the title Ghosts of Jazz, he is   clearly calling back to the jazz era, yet the sound of his music is undeniably contemporary. Sample-heavy and synthesizer-steeped with driving hip hop beats, Skim Milk synthesizes the legacies of Miles Davis and Pete Rock, of Jo Jones and Dabrye, of yesterday’s jazz giants and today’s hip hop icons.

In fact, Davidson claims his music is most akin to hip-hop than anything else. “The last two records have been focused around a lot of sampling of older records. So that sort of falls in line with hip hop,” says Davidson. However, his passion for more experimental hip hop and electronic music developed later in Davidson’s career.

Graduating from the UBC School of Music with a degree in orchestral clarinet, Davidson found himself at an impasse. “A good decade and a half into learning [the clarinet] I realized that it’s essentially irrelevant unless I choose to do something else with it,” he explains.

Aimlessly surfing the internet, as one does in times of crisis, Davidson came across videos of esteemed saxophonist Michael Brecker playing an electronic wind instrument (EWI), a wind-controlled synthesizer. “It just seemed like the logical extension of woodwind instruments,” says Davidson. Quickly getting his hands on one, he began to learn and develop his own style with the instrument. While for some it may be hard to recognize the sound of the EWI, Davidson says “it brings sort of this ambient, ethereal synth quality to it…It’s a light glow that you might not be aware of.”Kalena_SkimMilk_spot1_color

In addition to incorporating the EWI into his own music, Davidson brought it to other acts. “I got accepted to a three month residency [at the Banff Centre for the Arts] just to study this instrument,” explains Davidson. “It just so happened that Brasstronaut was doing a recording residency then.” Joining the critically acclaimed indie rock band and touring across Europe and North America with them, Davidson’s approach to making and interacting with music was fundamentally altered. “It was just realizing that there are so many ways to go about music, different ways to understand it.”

His time with Brasstronaut, however, was not the only major shift in Davidson’s musical development. He credits his time living in Montreal as pivotal in his musical change of direction. “Montreal has a much deeper electronic and hip hop scene than Vancouver… I got exposed to Madlib and J Dilla, and all this hip hop, and it really changed the way I heard music. It really resonated with me.”

For Davidson, hip hop became a way to connect disparate musical influences. “It became a way to explore old jazz music that I had grown up loving, and had really vested a lot of interest in,” he says. “Hip hop has allowed me to really go back and take those old recordings and turn them into something that’s really meaningful for me.”

Discorder October 2015And that’s what makes Skim Milk such a captivating project. By reaching across genres, instruments, technologies and eras, Davidson not only evokes impressions of past greats, but asserts his music as a new synthesis of these far-flung elements. As he explains, “I think today it’s really hard to be a very specific artist, or specific musician. If you’re going to pursue it at any length, you kind of need to be diverse and  expand your abilities if you’re going to cut the mustard.”

Even though Ghosts of Jazz is an homage to the jazz era, it is not a jazz record. As Davidson expounds, “I feel like jazz is a huge part of me, but I hate to pigeonhole myself.” Instead of creating a modern interpretation of the genre, Davidson adapts some of the techniques, instruments, and sounds of jazz to create something altogether different. “I feel like I’m sort of on the outskirts of several scenes,” he explains. “I’m just dabbling in where I fit in, but I’m not solely vested in one genre.”

While utilizing those “beautiful, classic sounds,” those legacies of jazz, Skim Milk slips between the spaces that separate musical styles. “We’re moving so far beyond the past and technology is advancing rapidly,” says Davidson, yet that doesn’t mean that the past can be abandoned altogether. For Davidson, Ghosts of Jazz is “trying to communicate that the stuff back then is just as hip as the stuff now, you just have to figure out how to work it.”

At times, it can be hard to hear the EWI in Skim Milk’s music. The clarinet is rarely, if ever, the centre piece of any track. Even the samples of old jazz records can become lost in the mix of Davidson’s new record—but he seems to be alright with that. “It’s my secret little trick, getting people to listen to Art Tatum again, whether or not they know it.”

Ghosts of Jazz will be released October 17. It is also worth noting that February of this year Skim Milk played a Sofar Sounds show in Vancouver, a concert series also featured in this issue of Discorder.

How an Arts Space in Oakland Bounced Back

A virtual-reality tour of the California city’s resilient art and music scene.

Naming Gallery in Oakland, California, is a multi-purpose arts space where people congregate on Saturday nights. This 360 documentary explores the how the arts center has become a staple for young artists to congregate, despite the fact that it exists in a historically beleaguered neighborhood. In August 2016, a fatal shooting occurred outside the gallery where hundreds of people were celebrating. “If we let this destroy us as people, we won’t be able to gather, we won’t be able to share art with each other,” says Shane, a musician who is part of the Naming Gallery community. “To stay open is the only thing I can do right now.”

This is the third episode in The Atlantic’s video series “Saturday Night in America,” which uncovers pockets of nightlife across the nation. It was directed by the Oakland-based Variable Labs.

This post originally appeared on The Atlantic.

Rocky Face Ridge

In Their Own Words

Sam Watkins, 1st Tennessee

"We form line of battle on top of Rocky Face Ridge, and here we are face to face with the enemy. Why don't you unbottle your thunderbolts and dash us to pieces? Ha! here it comes; the boom of cannon and the bursting of a shell in our midst. Ha! ha! give us another blizzard! Boom! boom! That's all right, you ain't hurting nothing."

David H. Moore, 125th Ohio

"I will give you briefly the story of the Rebel lead which, after having passed downward through the face of one of my soldiers, and bearing with it the marks of his teeth, brought up on my hip."

Andrew M. Sea, Sea's Battery

"Just think of it!  'Fight them to the muzzle of the guns' simply meant to die or be captured in your tracks; sacrifice yourselves and guns to gain a little time, and that, too, absolutely without support.  Why the order fairly took my breath.  I was not one of those men who never felt the sensation of fear."

Frank S. Roberts, 2nd Georgia

"Many were the nights we sang these songs and many others, and hundreds of the boys from the adjoining camps came over to hear us sing.  And now that is only a sweet memory."

Like most people I don’t remember a whole lot when it comes to remembering my childhood. But I do remember not talking a lot. Isn’t that odd? That’s what I remember about my childhood?

I think this is confirmed because my older sister Page once made a drawing of her childhood and she said when it came to placing me into the picture I was “off by the bushes quietly talking to myself” but not to anyone around me.

Also my Aunt Cindy said it’s true that I didn’t talk a lot. I was the sixth of nine, you see and I didn't demand much attention. And even though my parents took good care of me, she said she’d worry about me, socially-like. This explains why she sent me a birthday gift when I was twelve from Laguna Beach where she lived.

It was a hot pink and white striped shirt with beaded and sequined artwork on the back--a "conversation starter" if you will--and no one else in my family got a birthday present from Aunt Cindy that year. Just me.

The funny thing is that now, as an adult, I talk a lot but I never like it. If I were truer to myself I’d probably only talk about one fourth as much as I do. I really think my nature is to be a shy person, but I’ve taught myself to be more gregarious. More out-going. More chatty. All of these qualities seemed more of a sure bet for life. But when I am not blabbing around, I feel much more like me.

And even now I am telling myself, shhhhh.

this month I've decided to write a book while simultaneously breastfeeding my baby and battling the postpartum blues. should be a blast. stay tuned.
