“O, thou hypocrites, thou generation of vipers.” This biblical quote doesn’t refer to the snakes born every twenty years or so. A generation also means a production of something, as in, “spawned by serpents” or “serpent spawn”.
In my book, it definitely includes the current collection of insane power-hungry assholes in the hallowed halls of Congress.
They don’t appear to know it, but they’ve put the U.S. on a one-way course into civil disorder and unrest, with no relief, because any election will be called a fraud, even when the Republicans happen to win.
In the meantime, I’m working away at the zazzle sales items, the redbubble sales, the paom sales and of course the eBay and etsy sales.
At the same time, I’m also working to achieve some balance with the kunstmatrix virtual gallery exhibitions — each one is related to at least one of our websites, which makes possible the photography of interiors, which is otherwise impossible.
When you’re in kunstmatrix, you can’t take a screenshot, but when you’re on your own website LOOKING at kunstmatrix through your ordinary browser, you’ll be able to click on a white space and ask for a screenshot as usual with the firefox brower.
This emphatically does NOT work in any of the other browsers I’ve tried.
Taking a screenshot of those spaces is an incredibly effective tool in your arsenal of media marketing.
Speaking of marketing, I’ve also created a number of “button” items, which goes along with this weekend’s workshop.
I hope you achieved a sense of “it’s not what you do, it’s how you do it”, which is prompted by the specific effort or type of work.
It’s APPLIED spiritual science, is what it is. Wax on, wax off. You learn by attempting to do something and doing it successfully, and when that’s AS A GROUP, it’s even more effective.
Once you grasp the basics, there’s no real benefit to be gained by sitting around motionless trying to be calm. Try the same thing while DOING something and see how far you get.
And the doingness can be putting a set of items up on redbubble or zazzle and then organizing them into a kunstmatrix exhibit, and then improving your reach and your results.
Just that alone is a major change in how you do things, even if you’re already doing some marketing or media work.
It’s not the same thing. It’s different. It’s not just marketing things.
As a matter of fact, it’s not about marketing things or making money or improving the planet or any of those ordinary things.
It’s a training ground for higher consciousness, but it can’t be approached wildly and without discipline.
One of the first disciplines is learning to pay no attention to the uproar of politics and business, and just carrying on your work.
In this case, it’s your practices, one of which, presumably, is to create at least one personal kunstmatrix exhibition.
Want to know the first exercise?
Sure. I’m giving it away free today. Ready?
Every exhibition is actually a story. There’s a plot line, beginning, middle and end. The same rules apply to creating a kunstmatrix exhibition as there would be in any creative endeavor. Here are the steps:
- Find some photos or screenshots or other graphics that you’d like to organize into an exhibition space.
- Select an exhibition space layout.
- Upload the graphics into the kunstmatrix environment and write a description for each, including a hotlink to your target marketing page.
There, that wasn’t so hard, was it?
Now you’re going to do exactly the same thing, but telling the story of your life. You can use photos — they don’t have to be yours, or of you — drawings, royalty-free graphics, whatever you like, as long as there are at least ten steps, ten graphics in the chain.
Eventually we’ll use this to do something really spectacular on a higher level, but we first need to learn the very very basics, which is what we’re doing now.
You’ll never get this from ordinary pursuits and ordinary methods. We’ll be using special skills and knowledge to create the higher consciousness levels, and we’ll be doing that real soon, because we have to work fast.
We’ll only be able to do our spiritual work in the open for a little while longer. Soon, even the teaching of meditation will be forbidden, as it was during the middle ages and quite recently during the 1960s and 1970s.
Don’t let the political jerks distract you. In the end, it all settles down and life goes on, obla-di obla-da, and the beat goes on and on and on.
Like I said, don’t let the morons distract you.
Illigitimati Non-Carborundum, which is fake Latin meaning “Don’t let the bastards — illigitimati — grind you down, which is obviously “non-carborundum”.
A carborundum is a knife-sharpening stone, in case you didn’t know. There aren’t many of them left lying around — it’s all electric and automatic now, but then, what isn’t???
There are many subtleties to the virtual gallery, but it all starts when YOU decide to push the button and get on the train — it’s only a question of “when”.
Don’t wait until you’re in an American Refugee soup line to get yourself actually in gear and going strong.
45 years ago, I wrote in “SlimeWars” about the fascist takeover of America, and of course it was taken as hyperbolic humor.
As I said then, you won’t react to it until you see it coming, and by the time you see it coming, it’s too late.
We still have some time to work while the clock, she’s a-ticking!
See You At The Top!!!
