Emergent Mythos

At some point in time, forty or fifty years the junior of now, space was the place for future minded mammals. Space is a place, indeed, but cluttered it is with now derelict materializations of grandiose plans, expended craft and decaying moons of the metallic order.  Does space exist as space if there is nothing but clutter?

When electromagnetic pulses pulverize the outboard brains of meanderthals and tele-cocooned communities, tales of pinball wizardry will take on new significance.  Even in the always-already impending mental glitch stupor, the senior moments trailing on right now–sense of place is a self imposed dis-position.

But as the portent-deprived apocalypticists in our midst will confirm, the EMP scenario is hardly hyperbole. Google yourself a provisional representation of rudely awakened somnambuloids left pawing for new mythos and modes of orientation.  Back to basics they will lift their heads, and attune their eyes —like prying saucers—eager to go about constructing temporary constellations of coherency.  Fashioning formations out of the sky-flung dreck and discarded futures from the worlds of tomorrow.  What mythos will emerge when the lights go out?

watch log #1

Standing watch at the dematerializedpelton
Gates of dawn,
me spotted cogified cosmonauts
constipated and command less. With branded barrels of JP-5 by their side,
star lust, Mars or bust, spare a brother a dime; beaming from mutant dimensional eyes
acquired from over exposure on underfunded flybys.
More members of Precariat class
Compounding a conundrum
these abandoned astronauts,
angry and ample, ascended upon my perched place
poised as protectorate.
Pausing, passing simulations over situations,
Summarizing summations,
“could anarchist astronauts gather before the ephemeral door while it whirled and twirled
and bore no resemblance to analog cyborgs?”
They so craved to lore into a post utopia all night convenient store.
Rolling snow dust hills separate us in distance,
while This Owl malignant magic codifies confidence within mind crust.
Raising voice to join in over-heard, overhead, over-stated choir…

A LEXICONSPIRACY (Part of a peek)

Tales From a Spandex Hovel

Non-euclidean event scenes, in all their phantasmal variability, would be wise to crib notes from the inhabitants of that tangled web known colloquially as Weird Fiction.  What remains to be told is very brief, and may be familiar to you already from the whispered accounts of October 9th circa Work/Sound, Earth:

vample4Redolent of the the iridescent spandex hovel from which they emanated, sputtering half-humanoid shape forms and assorted sensory blasts gave pause to passers by, inciting a hypnotic lull on the immediate populace

Transfixed by shape-forms that flabbily quivered in harmony with vidsonic debris from infernal machines, the spellbound onlookers meandered curiously about the ghastly nebula.   Like moths to a flame, glimpses of Weird Fiction’s scattered plasticity and glowering protrusions were swiftly consumed by the doomed surveyors.vample

Within this temporarily cavernous haunt,  a complex system of sound-forms seeped into existence. This aural presence was infinitely churning, subtly vibrant, and arguably danceable, but held a quality of surpassing wilderness which made its impact like a delicate torture on the fleshy minds of those mammals.

Humanoid-spinoffs of the obliterati emerged and disappeared in the wake of the Weird Fiction occurrence.  Figures leaving traces of footwear and mobile phones, whiskey and assorted belongings — laughable attempts at deleting the dead weight of their conspicuous info-corpses.

Of sightings and encounters, this particular ficto-quizzical milieu competes furiously with the visionary anecdotes relayed millenia ago from the caveman Zan.
