A New about page for the site – New Direction

Oct 20

Posted by admin in Spiritual, knowledge, systems | No Comments

This site is all about my exploration on the nature of reality, human civilization and consciousnesses. Here is just a random sample of  some of the things you might find me talking about here.

  • How do we know the things we know.  What is the direction of modern science? What are some of the more fascinating viewpoints and theories that are currently being discovered? What is my opinion on this.
  • What role does the ideas of information theory have on areas such as consciousness, genetics, time, consciousness and the fabric of reality
  • How is our understanding changing about topics such as UFO’s, Aliens, Shamanism, The Occult, meditative spiritual practice, psychedelics, ghosts, cryptozoology. Why is there so much overlap between these subjects? What are the commonalities and differences.
  • Why is there such a wide range of paranormal entities encountered and described. Why are there very few set ‘types’.
  • Is there a connection between ceremonial magick ’summoned’ entities and modern spontaneously encountered entities.
  • What is the role of the signal and noise principal in enlightenment and understanding of reality.

Some notable thinkers whose views that I will pick apart and discuss at some stage will be Ken Wilbur, Krishnamurti, Robert Anton Wilson, Terence Mckenna, Jacques Vallee, Gurdjeff, Jed Mckenna, buddhist texts, vedanta texts, tarot symbolism, occult books and libers.

I won’t claim to come up with any answers at all, and I will relate some of my experiences along the way. All we can be at best is mirrors pointing towards the truth. The real truth is the eternal spiritual mystery, the no-thing at the center of all things.

Oh yeah, and I am always up for a chat via email at info (at) informationreality (dot) com

The modern subconscious is a deep ocean to fish

Apr 28

Posted by admin in Information Theory, Internet, Magick, Occult, Random Oracle, conciousness, knowledge | No Comments

The modern subconscious has been so filled up with media, conditioning, schooling, parenting and working that it must be one of the most dense information stores in the history of the universe. The thing is that we are not really provided with any nets or fishing gear at the moment (that’s what shamans etc were good for), and the things found in its murky depths are not taken to be of any value.

By looking into sources of information noise, such as random wikipedia sources (method) and looking within yourself, you stir these waters and can see thoughts as the arise to the surface from the pressurized depths. These strange creatures are the whole basis for our civilization, culture.

This is a great tool to explore your own inner and outer reality.

Its just like tarot cards. They are just symbols on a page, with no actual absolute value. The interpretation of each card changes from person to person, even in subtle ways. The literal meaning of the cards is not the important bit. How these random media work is that they stir the mind in unexpected and unpredicted ways, and allow fresh insights to emerge. Signal from noise.

This is a representation of Googles Relevance Engine

Apr 25

Posted by admin in Internet, knowledge | No Comments

I found this image searching on the word Knowledgesphere, one of the tags that i have on this here blog. It jogged my memory  in relation to my last post, about how Google is always searching for relevance in its search listings and adwords ads that it serves up.

The zombies rising from the grave are the old, dead and completely irrelevant pages that are coming up in peoples searches. Google sees itself like necromancer or mage with the glowing green magick coming out of its hands, vanquishing these undead denizens of information before they tie you up and waste your time. Perhaps like this page :)

Terrence Mckenna – No One Is Smarter Than Anyone Else

Apr 24

Posted by admin in Society, knowledge, reality | No Comments

All anyone has is the value of their direct experience of the world. Everything else is just heresay and speculation. Go out and find your own answers, and walk your own path. Everything that there is to be known about the universe has not already been thought of. Give us your unique spin, your angle that makes the light reflect of everything a little differently.

The Violence Of Plants

Feb 6

Posted by admin in Natural World, Society, knowledge, systems | No Comments

WE think plants are gentle, peaceful entities. But really they are not. Looking out at my vegetable patch, i can see a bitter life or death struggle occurring on a daily basis.

Weeds constantly try to take over the space and get higher than the small eggplant and tomato seedlings i have there, and steal their sunlight and their nutrients.

It is a dog eat dog, or maybe I should say, plant starve plant world out there, where the most ruthless and adaptive always seem to come out on top over the smaller, weaker and more set in their domesticated ways others.

Even in a stable ecosystem these battles are continuously raging on, however the net result of the losses and victories between different species even out and a lot of species co-exist in the same space without taking over all of the available resources.

Its All About Finding The Others

Feb 6

Posted by admin in Society, World Events, knowledge, reality | No Comments

This blog is all about finding the others really.

If anything on this blog resonates with you, please send me an email at steve@informationreality.com, or follow the inforeality twitter account or some other such thing. We need to start the dialogue and building some new and original plans, models and forecasts of how the world is changing, and what pieces of the puzzle we can be in the grand scheme of things.

When I say piece of the puzzle, i really mean what part you will play in the story of the continuation and learning of humanity and the universe. It doesn’t matter if you don’t play a part in working for your country, or serving the national interest, or being a good citizen.

I mean look deep into yourself, into your true self and hear the voice inside that want to get out, and listen to what that aspect of yourself wants to do. That is what you are here to achieve. Everything else is just a funny play put on by bad actors.

Terrence Mckenna used to say, when people asked him what they should do with their insights from entheogenic or spiritual transformation, “find the others.” In groups ideas have the medium they need to evolve and compete.

Stupid Evolving Internet Marketing

Jan 31

Posted by admin in BACKCHANEL, Internet, knowledge, money | No Comments

A good idea for a domain like this is to just pump it full of content, just write and write exclusive content, that is say things in a novel way that haven’t been said before to attract traffic. Make a whole heap of social media profiles where you just spout the same random gibberish, and get it propogated as far as possible via rss across the internet.

Dont worry about

  • building an audience
  • building a list
  • building a personal profile

    • Be the antithesis of all of that, and just get mountains of content out there are as quickly as possible. It would be interesting to see what the time difference / payoff equation came out equaling when you compared this to a more “by the book” internet marketing approach that i normally follow.

    Just create stupid sites, which evolve over time to be content rich domains with heaps of monetisation things all over them. Like every third post should be about an affiliate product, and then the few around it should be about the same subject. All of the posts should take a maximum of five minutes to write, and have around 400 words minimum. Try to seo and keyword write them to some degree if you can.

    What the aim of this is to create a clientless, prdouctless, business less way to create ongoing income via the web that may be done anywhere

Wikipedia Content Creation System

Jan 9

Posted by admin in BACKCHANEL, knowledge | No Comments

The main way of writing this blog is by hunting down random wikipedia articles, and then streaming out my thoughts on the subject and giving it the best SEO tags that i can find.

To do this I use the following tool

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Randompageset

Worpdress Tag suggest Thing
Wordpress all in one SEO

By doing this, i can get articles indexed on this page in a matter of an hour, getting to the top of google for the query string that is the article title.

It is my hypothesis that if i do this long enough, there will be a long chain of results that will result in some form of passive adsense income. It is also a great way to get ideas flowing as it gives your mind 100% free reign to write about anything that comes to mind.

25% of All Google Searches are NEW

Dec 15

Posted by admin in INFOREALITY, Internet, Magick, divination, knowledge | No Comments

To me this figure is partial proof for some of the concepts that I have been developing over the past few years. It is staggering to think that 25% of queries that google sees on a daily basis are things that have NEVER been searched for before.

Or, more exactly, they are things that have never been searched for before in that way.

Where is this information, this new form of questions coming from. Where are they appearing in people’s minds. This difference in search volume could be thought of as search ‘noise’. It will appear in googles keyword stats, and then people who are in the know will start to create content to specificly match these queries. It is digital evolution.

These new search queries are turning up spontaneously in the minds of people, and represent a change in the evolution of the meme-sphere of the planet, the sum total of the direction of thoughts of all people. So where does this NEW though come from.

Is there something in consciousness that is connected to a source of “thought noise.”? I posit that there is a force that ensures that peoples thoughts are not linear and only contain things that they have seen before, but instead mix up and create new synergies, as well as unexpected mutations of the contents of their minds.

Welcome To The Used Car Lot

Dec 15

Posted by admin in Internet, knowledge | No Comments

The defualt mode for adsense ads on this domain continues to be ads about car yards, and new models of cars. Maybe i should start writing about some different kinds of things on here.

I think that a lot of the adsense ads just pick up the context from the title. So i am guessing, even before it is posted that this one is going to have ads about cars on it too.

Which is a shame, becuase ads about home loans, and mortages, and insurance, especially things like life insurance, health insurance, car insurance seem to do pretty well. High click through rates, and they pay quite well when someone does click them.

I really feel that the car market is where the first signs of the end of growth for modern civilization are going to be felt.. I mean, people don’t always need to have a brand new car. It is a commodity that is not a necessity. The car industry is based on the consumerist notion that once a car gets a few years old, then it is not as good as the day it was made.. Which is just wrong. What is the point of engineering and manufacturing these costly things if no one wants them after a few years..
