Sid Thomas S*-ing to Power

S*-ing to Power **** S is for Sign, * is for Use. S*, as in S*-ing, is for SLINGING THE SHLONG AGAINST PHILOSOPHICAL AND OTHER ABUSE (Let S* be verse, picture, symbology, rant, whatever talks eternal, American, now) The world is ready and waiting for what we can do here. As John Calvin put it, differently, "It's up to you."

OUR* PERSPECTIVE

OUR* PERSPECTIVE

-Looking Down on the Situation

Unfolding Experience through Sign-Use


This is defining a metaphysical perspective, a way of putting what is known as real through communicated human experience under a single totality of representation.

The S* system: a S*ystem in Sign-use, of Sign-use, for Sign-use.


EARLIEST TIMES, EARLIEST NAMES, EARLIEST LINKS

The Situation and The Situation under Sign-use (= communication by means of pictures, words, glyphs, gestures, actions, etc. shaped by conscious intention for purposes of use for others) are NOT THE SAME. They are distinct, as realms of experience itself, as a totality.

The two realms divide as Space (3-dimensional, containing the individual human body) and TokenSpace (any segment of 3-dimensional space in which a sign S is used “*” (=”S*”).

TokenSpace is represented by the Tablet, or slate used for marking. Tabula rosa was John Locke’s Latinism for ‘the mind’, or ‘soul’, considered as emptied of sensory regarded as arising from molecular impacts “impressed” on something. Thus, a token of consciousness, per se.

THOTH out of PTAH -- metaphysics of the first myth

The ibis-headed man-God Thoth is typically depicted as inscribing a stone tablet with a stylus. Distinct from all other Gods of most ancient and hoary religious records, emerging as like a son of Ptah (“Ae(Ki)Pt-ah” = Egypt), his Father; or was it vice versa? In any case, He (Thoth) brings the secrets of: writing (not: alphabetic), number (measurer of planet/star sun-moon cycles with Zodiacal sky charts which began with calendars; building (the Great Pyramid of Ghiza, and Goudea’s in the Girsu; Solomon’s Temple?”); and (leaving aside many more gifts to civilization attributed to Him) …life. He is called upon by Isis to restore the fecundity of Osiris, after Seth killed and dismembered his body into 14 parts which she re-assembled sans phallus. She and He fashion a wooden substitute, the legend goes, through which Thoth produces Osirus’ DNA into her womb, spawning Horus their son, whose eye is later seen everywhere watching as from the spirit of the sacred precincts. The term “cult phallus” is used by historians in referring to the contrived means of fertilization, and tokens of said instrument presumably retained objects of veneration Horus would be pleased to see. Use of the metaphor “members” for all “members of groups” may well be a perseveration, as Jung called them, of memory of Osirus’ wang. The white Apis bull, slaughtered each year at heliopolis, was sire of his spirit left behind on earth for priest’s ritual re-plenishments of the religious and social order. Osiris was The Great Bull (of Heaven = The sun; from its risings in the age of Taurus; but ‘returned’ into heavens, BEYOND the sun, to Sirius, the star of the star which is our sun.

TAURUS  PISCES / / OSIRIS  JESUS CHRIST

My reconstruction of what has been woven together in above vast tale of Old (pre-historic; higher dimensional) Egypt, is as follows:

“Osiris” was the name associated with some actual super-sized, natural God-like unchallenged ruler-type individual at the time “when there were giants on the face of earth,” taking Genesis 9 as historical fact. The name OSIRIS is coupled in the Archetypal narrative with ISIS. his “sister”, and “she” is associated with SIRIUS, the most brilliant star in the sky that appears briefly in the pre-dawn sky at the summer equinox, just before the flooding of the Nile. It’s fecundating waters were also identified in myth with OSIRUS’ spermatic fluid. As He once fertilized the Great Goddess, so he fertilizes the seeds in earth each year. THOTH, in contrast, is the one who has secret knowledge of the process of life, and his cultic devotees became adepts in the medical sciences as well as astronomy, mathematics, etc.. He would have carried out the acts of splitting the DNA molecules and splicing a ‘booster’ into the genetic code in the evolution of humans, if that is how the jump to the distinctive human form happened. Perhaps Jesus was another Archetypically superior individual, perhaps some mutant throw-back/-forward to the genetic forms transmitted through Osirus cult. One with us, but More: not OF us, with contents wholly contained and exhausted in consciousness under sign-use. For us, these names are tokens of the objectively mystical.

A duration of psychological development – evolution – of humanity can be located between Osiris, as figure of the great living, dying, resurrected, fecundating God -- Age of Taurus; and Jesus Christ, as figure of the great living, dying, resurrected, fecundating God of the New Testament – Pisces. Between them passed Aries, the age of The Ram, the sacrificing/sacrificial patriarchs. Shades of their recurrence into Aquarius, now, through guilt, but more of this later. For now, the overall narrative is the transformation from LIFE: generically taken as the history of the 22 chromosome threads, first bred on earth circa 200.000 through a higher genetic-code “spliced into” the lower form of self-replicating DNA, leading to the processing through sign-use of more expanded, deeper, different morphic fields. Secondly, the more evolved organism processes LIGHT, together with Life sensations, as a common cosmic totality whose instances wholly contain all they are, in space. Thus the watered, fertilized seed responds to sunlight, and this process ramifies through cell division from embryo, to fetus, to infant, in very regular patterns (phenotypes), supported by coordinated organ functions (muscle movements that respond to will). As a matter of growth, the individual thrives on LOVE. LIFE, LIGHT, LOVE  LOGOS is the metaphysical creed of The Gospel of St. John, 1.1. This is the narrative of a sublimation become conscious of itself as a suiblimation, preparing to sublimate yet again, through another LOGOS incarnation.

ON TODAY'S SCENE

THE DOUBLE REVERSE SPECIAL

Now (after Nov. 8), “OUR* TokenSpace has been invaded by the call for another, new, investigation of leak of classified information about the CIA, in addition that of Patrick Fitzgerald leading to the indictment of I.L. Libby, this time concerning who blew the whistle to the Washington Post in re it’s chain of torture prisons.

Obviously, there is much here to note. As a distinctive, definable “Morph” in Group Tokenspace, it is a “double reverse negative”. This is explained as follows/

First, by shifting attention from the torture prisons themselves to the act of leaking their existence – the position of agency itself, in TKNSPC* is reversed as regards defense vrs. offense. Rather than be seen defending Abu Ghraib, they can be seen vigorously prosecuting those who endanger American lives by leaking classified information.

Second, contextual juxtaposition with Fitzgerald’s investigation, the new call not only a. confuses and muddles what was already difficult to make out in the Wilson/Rove affair; but b. trivializes, by copy-cat repetition of ‘leak’ for whistleblower, and c. reverses the burden, or onus of wrongdoing, in these precincts of TokenSpace. Though penetrating all its dimensions, its pernicious effects are mostly confined to processes of the upper triad, which reproduce contents that exist through consciousness alone.

This illustrates what is meant by “Double Reversal.” As a simultaneous configuration in context, the second over-laying the first, a psychodynamic interaction between the two through: a. duplicate tokens (“CIA”, “Leak”, “Investigation”) locked into the processes of group connection ; b. leaving the judgmental text to “wag”, as it were, FROM revulsion and desire to avoid the implications of the torture picture – reaction to the pain of pain – TO desire for Cleanliness in Blood flow, or “Truth” (=THOTH as etheric substance). The sacred/secular oscillation, it might be called. The effect of the superimposition is paralysis of functional capacity. Difficulty or inability to carry on both processes at the same time necessary to find and balance the One in the Two, then, address, The Contention with authority and power, neutralizes opposition to the Dyad, so its shaded tokens win by default.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to be able identify, analyze, name and functionally understand the Double Reverse Negative* AS AN ENTITY ORGANIZED IN/BY/THROUGH SIGN-USE. It provides a very broad “triangulation” in TokenSpace, through S*, of ‘something’ – neither material nor spiritual, but ‘something’ = a ‘morph’ – whose three parts relate to each other in such a way as to make a unit. Recognition of an organized entity of this vastly complex level of sub-ordinate presupposed levels, should be hailed as a discovery, and I do so hail it. The names of ‘Morphs’ in TokenSpace occur IN TokenSpace alongside (as content of an identical conscious matrix) the names, and figures named, of 3-dimensional spatial enclosures. Whereas material objects correspond to the names of contents of the lower triad, completed in outer space, ‘psychical objects’ correspond to the names of contents of consciousness of the upper triad, completed in inner (private) space, or time.

IMMEDIATE IMPLICATION/CONSEQUENCE

Hyp. The Double Reverse Negative ACTS LIKE PRION-IZED PROTEIN IN THE BLOOD OF GROUP COMMUNICATION. That is my basis for use of the metaphor “poison”.
