I think I'll call myself a Magician today
Magical thinking; believing the ritual causes the quabbalism, rather than being its arrangement.
The existence of these anomalies; black swan traders, harmonious musicians with minimal music theory knowledge, writers and artists who divinate from a collective unconscious; a seemingly ex nihilo emergence, and the pasticheur chases a ghost of materia into a self-referent oblivion.
The Creative Class is antiphrasis, structured to evade quabbalisms by the anti-creative nature of the profession itself. The gradual shift to short-form everything is the logical conclusion; reduction of attention precedes the elimination of the quabbalism. Mistaking reconstitution for creativity’s genesis; they simply rationalize this as standing on the shoulders of giants. The person who one day decides to go to college for storytelling and makes their life’s work progressive re-inventions in different formats can only perceive the quabbalisms, but not engender them.
Reconstitute and water down great works, subtly alluded to in a flimsy attempt to create a hyperstition of existing among them; pick the most popular, make it into a production. Slap on a signal like “magician” or “shaman.” Or even more ostentatious, “polymath.” Make sure to release on a schedule for engagement, make your art bite-sized.
Reduce, consume, formalize. Call it
Creativity.
Systematize to self-realize.
Through the Looking Glass. Another Reflektor.
The Algorithmic Neo-{ } Machine is a microcosm of samsara; a self-propagating system of continuous, lateral historic substitutions.
Medicalization of spiritualism into a new psychiatry—it’s all just a dialectic deceit. Instead of earnestly examining, they cleverly minimize and substitute dogmas, this time ‘New Agers’ and ‘psychiatry,’ they contort the sphere with all sorts of sophistic circustry to veil preservation of the same epistemic closure, preferring to focus on how x can be defined as an infinite set. They capitalize on collective frustration to gain popularity, then propose a solution just as misleading. Hypocrites, usually. Seeking transcendence, they instead assimilate into yet another lilypad in the same pond, under the guise of a different taxonomy, with new information yet the same understanding. They identify the quabbalism, then squash it.
Schizophrenic antichrists.
