Change Reality Screens by Timothy Leary with Cyberpunk Manifesto
Basically, we humans are brains with bodies
designed to move our brains around-bodies equipped with sensory input
and output ports bringing information into our
a hundred billion neuron biocomputer brains. Back in the Roaring
20th Century,
Timothy Leary, the visionary fugitive philosopher, _grocked_ that
personal
computers are transforming our brains into output organs emitting,
discharging
digital information through the Terrariun window into Screenland. The
Screen
is the revolving glass door through which our brains both receive and
emit
signals.
Reboot
Your
Brain As we
locomote in Cyberia our brains are learning how to exhale and
inhale in the datasphere-to beam our brain waves into the Cyberia of
electronic
realities, to think and play and work and communicate and create at the
basic
0/1 level. Screenland frees our right brains to imagineer digital
dreams,
visions, fictions, concoctions, hallucinatory adventures.
Change
Reality
Screens Our brains
are only in operation when they are slamming bytes and
bits of information back and forth-multimedia communication. They want
to
hook up with other brains. In the future, we will don cyberwear to
swim,
float, navigate through the oceans of electronic data as we link in
thrilling
cyber exchanges with others who we may never meet in person. Work and
creating
will take place in Screenland. Taking off our cyberwear to confront
another
human brain with naked eyeballs will be a precious personal appearance.
Think
For
Yourself Cyberia can
free or enslave us. Those who control our screens, program
the realities we inhabit. Law-and-order systems trivialize and demonize
concepts
of Self as dangerous-personal freedom, individual aims, personal
knowledge
and self-expression. Leary warns that if we are to be free, we need to
learn
how to operate our biocomputer brain power-how to boot up our brains
and
create our own reality screens!!! CyberPunks-self-directed,
rule-breaking,
cyberfreedom seekers-question authority and think for themselves
The CyberPunk
Manifesto by Christian A. Kirtchev calls cyberfreedom seekers to
action.
Question
Authority The eternal
philosophy of chaos says we can engineer that rather than
fear chaos. Hindu sages and Buddhists were the first chaos engineers
who
taught: BE Cool. Don't panic. Chaos is good. Chaos creates infinite
possibilities.
Change reality screens-look within for divinity.
Reboot
Your Brain Often.
