"Lost in music, there I found YOU, ME, EVERYTHING, and NOTHINGNESS. When I draw, I open my mind to possibilities, and that’s when ideas find me, not the other way around. The process of my art involves taking away lines, rather than adding them. Saying less, says more. By getting lost in a nothingness, you find yourself, you find love, and a reason for being. That’s what my art is to me: It’s the artifacts that I find on my journey into getting as lost as I can be." - Jeremyville

When CERN announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, some controversy sprang from Gianotti's use of the Comic Sans typeface in the presentation of the results. Alby Reid, a physicist, started an online petition calling for Microsoft to change the name of the font to Comic Cerns. Vincent Connare, the font's creator, tweeted support for the petition. Gianotti had used Comic Sans in previous presentations, but the controversy was generated due to the importance of the material presented.

Here be dragons
The current excitement around Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is mostly missing the bigger picture: There is a ghost in the machine and a machine inside the ghost. This century won't be predominately defined by AGI, Robotics or Biotech - but by breakthroughs in inter-species comms and the democratization (and rebranding) of energy work, practical magic & engineered paranormal activity.

Albert Einstein: Psyops = mc² - An anecdote from a cryptocratic pet project.
"In 1929, Albert Einstein – theoretical physicist and Nobel prize winner – visited the Belgian Royal court and a friendship began between him and the Queen of the Belgians, born Elisabeth of Bavaria. They played music together. She blamed the skin flute and he was
a heckuva pianist. He played using one finger but he was known for hitting all the right notes causing his flautist to hit that high C note while curling her toes."
"Luckily for her, he did not stay away for long, and in October 1930, he came by with several others and Elisabeth enjoyed their company and even took their photos with her own little camera. They also played music for several hours, and then he unexpectedly was invited over for dinner (spinach with eggs and potatoes) which was just with the King and Queen and no staff. He wrote to his wife, “I really enjoyed my visit, and I am sure they feel the same.” During a more formal dinner at the end of the visit, he was seated next to Elisabeth.
