Arcade Fire - Chemtrails, 9/11 & Other Oddities

I have uploaded a new video to my YouTube channel entitled "Arcade Fire - Chemtrails, 9/11 & Other Oddities" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRQMLVUkVHM

There is a lot of information in this video that has not really received any attention anywhere. I felt it was time to try and correct that oversight. Some of the information (particularly the embedded "code" in Arcade Fire's video "Signs of Life") is quite staggering and I'm surprised I haven't heard it being discussed in alternative knowledge research circles. Please check out the video, share it far and wide, give it a "thumbs-up", etc., if you want to.

Enjoy!

The Paralympics Closing Ceremony

This will hopefully be my last look into the London 2012 subject, at least until I talk on the subject in a few months. To be honest, what I have noted here (with regards to The Paralympic Closing Ceremony) is merely an exercise in completion! I have posted articles on the “build-up” and the three previous ritual ceremonies, so it seems only fair that I do the same for the finale. These rituals are “much of a much-ness” now. They have the same effect on me as drinking a bottle of ‘Draino’ (I only suspect! Thankfully I’ve never actually had the experience!)

If it wasn’t for the implications and a feeling of responsibility to highlight the hidden meanings and symbolism in such pantomimes, I wouldn’t give them the time of day. With that in mind, I’ve decided to point out a few interesting aspects and leave you to hopefully set out and look for the true nature of these representations for yourself. I do find it telling that (early in the proceedings) the commentators quoted the artistic director of the ceremony. She apparently asked people "not to look for too much meaning in all this...."

The “Festival of the Flame” seemed a little blatant to me really. I found it curious that the Saturn aspects (the three ‘agitos’ hung above the stadium floor) were demolished within the opening moments, paving the way for all manner of “fire” related themes and several examples of ‘sun worship’. An early opening video featured a “book of fire” being passed from person to person. It also introduced an array of ‘steam punk’ style vehicles and machinery racing toward the stadium. The latter took the form of mechanical creatures (horses, a giant fish, a dinosaur called “clamposaurus”, etc.) Many of the contraptions had ‘horned’ and ‘winged’ riders. One device was a mechanical man (who was on fire!) riding a bicycle. The commentary pointed out several “fan” devices as “wind gremlins”, who charged ahead of the cavalcade to lead a battle against the guardians / “dreamers” of the agitos… honestly! I couldn’t make this stuff up!

The commentary was a little unusual. The talking heads called it “a symbol of beginnings and ends”, “unity and human spirit”, “hope for the future”, “the power of love” (all strangely out of context), punctuated by continual references to the military and “the war on terror”…

The flag parade commenced, with the bearers initially forming a blatant triangle (trinity, pyramid, make of it what you will) and then a heart. It was all very cardiac warming and you could really feel the love! In keeping with this love fest, “Clamposaurus”, a rocket car (with a red star on the side), and some black feathered demon crow type creatures on stilts joined the ‘hug-in’, followed by a load of snarling and growling dancers with flame throwers – who proceeded to torch the ground and anything else they could find… it was all very lovely!

 

Once again, a huge eye was formed on the stadium floor and the military aspect came to the forefront when Lance Corporal Rory Mackenzie (an athlete who lost several limbs in Iraq) told us how this would “set the heart alight”, described a seasonal theme (with Summer designated the ‘spirit of fire, energy and passion’) and shouted “hail to the festival of the flame.”

 

From here on, the ritual became a vehicle for Coldplay fans (of which I’m not), who pranced around in the midst of the spectacle. Some of their lyrics seemed to synch well with the themes on display: “open up your eyes” (when the eye was formed), “look how they shine for you”, “it’s gone… up in flames”, “hear Jerusalem bells a ringing”, etc. Their bass drum had a blue lion (sun theme) on it, which I initially took as a six horned goat head! The band also had hypnotic swirls (“Monarch” perhaps?), hearts and all-seeing eye designs on their clothes and instruments. The piano was particularly curious – decorated with a pyramid and a lightning strike to the capstone, several single eyes, swirls and the statement: “and I heard it on a TV show”, a clever reference to the mass method of assimilating information these days.

 

I noticed the return of the light bulb motif when a dozen or so female acrobats descended into the stadium attached to Chinese lanterns made of glowing bulbs. A troupe of dancers were dressed as Egyptian slaves, as a “sun king” structure (similar to The Olympic “Phoenix”) was set alight and raised above the audience. The design also incorporated a ‘Kundalini’ aspect into the lower half. There was a Snow Queen (“Narnia” presumably), a sphere of energy (although I’m not sure how successful they were in igniting it!), dancers spinning fluorescent rods that appeared to show the faces of clocks (‘time’ again), green laser lights shone into the sky (maybe the ET aspect wasn’t abandoned after all), and a load of stuff toward the climax about waterfalls, etc.

 

I mention the water aspect because it seems to factor into the contemporary music industry an awful lot. This seems to go hand in hand with the inclusion of Rihanna (initially covered in fire-red) and Jay-Z as guest performers. These two individuals (amongst several others) appear high up in the pecking order of the global agenda player’s machinations within the music scene. There have been claims made about Rihanna’s mind control status (she is referred to in one of her own videos as an “illuminati princess”) as well as Jay-Z’s position as a possible “handler”. He has made numerous references within his songs to “The New World Order”, “The Illuminati” and “I’m riding high like Rockefeller”. There is an excellent interview on Richplanet TV (where Richard D Hall interviews music/mind control researcher Jemma King) that is well worth watching. Researcher Neil Sanders has also talked at length about this connection.

(Neil Sanders pt2) http://www.richplanet.net/starship_main.php?ref=18&part=1

 

In any case, the references were here. Rihanna sang (with Coldplay), “I’m just a puppet” and something about a “capstone” (although this was clearly audible, I couldn’t catch the surrounding lyrics. I will have to look them up.)

 

There was one other intriguing design that was obvious throughout. The floor of the stadium was set out in a weird “crop circle” style of intricate design. Not being that “up” on the subject, I would be interested to know what people made of it. Feel free to post your thoughts in the comments. The close up shots were to brief to grab and the long shots lacked detail. I hope to get some better images in due course.

Toward the end, Bored Coe took to the podium and talked about how proud he was and how these Games were truly “Made in Britain” (via the global agenda players, of course!). He closed with a story of a doctor he had met on the train (who had volunteered as a “games maker”). Coe tried to thank him however the doctor said “no, I should thank you.” He said that he had been “witness” to the events on 7/7 and how volunteering for The Games had provided him with closure.

This prompted a reaction from me that rarely happens… I lost my temper. As I hurled words like “anus” and “contemptible” at Coe’s face on the TV, I realised I was accomplishing nothing and quietened down! You really do have to wonder who is responsible for these ridiculous attempts to shoehorn lies into all and sundry. Is it Coe himself or somebody higher up the chain? With the anniversary of 9/11 just upon us, it brings home the reality of the world we truly live in and reminds us how desperate the players are to reinforce their “truths” upon us. For many people, these tactics still work. For those of us who see through the lies, it makes a mockery of reason and critical thinking, as well as insulting the memory of the victims.

As I said in my previous Paralympic article: if these Games are meant to be about sportsmanship, skill and determination, then lies about the greatest crimes in history have no place there. However, London 2012 has shown itself to be much darker in nature than a mere celebration of sport. Even though I don’t agree with the inclusion of perceptual management via such events (or in any other way for that matter!), it would make sense that those in charge would see fit to place all manner of crap in them. The setting seems to fit.

I say, let them get on with it. We know the score and it’s enough to confirm that their efforts are ultimately pointless. I do worry about those who will be “riding the high” after The Games, if the feeling is palpable in the national consciousness, TPTB may feel the need to smash it down. They feed off such efforts. Although the summer of ritual is now over, we may need to cautiously keep an eye on things for a little longer.

Until next time,

The Paralympics, Saturn Worship and Other Oddities.

Just when you thought it was safe to forget about “Olympic weirdness”, along comes The Paralympic Games opening ceremony! I’m not entirely sure why I decided to clock it, but I have to say I’m stunned! Did they get all the hoopla wrong? Should these two events have been the other way around in terms of global attention? Who knows if there were less or more eyes on this spectacle, but it seems that those who infiltrate the proceedings with imagery and symbolism have been having a field day with The Paralympics opening ritual. The event made the London Olympics rituals look like a dress rehearsal. I made some extensive notes whilst analysing it, however keeping it in some sort of narrative chronology or context was next to impossible given how downright bonkers it was. I will, never the less, make an attempt.

The title was “Enlightenment”… yes they really were being that brazen! The theme was allegedly liberty and progress through advancement (science and literature featured heavily). On the surface, this seems all well and good in relation to the notion of Paralympic athletes. It didn’t take long to realise that there was a mass of underlying imagery meshed into the proceedings.

Beginning with Stephen Hawking, we were soon presented with 600 dancers with umbrellas (many of whom were flying around the stadium) and quick flashes of words like “flawless” and “precise” across the stadium seating pixels. The inclusion of the umbrella (rain / cleansing) motif is often associated with (what some call) “illuminati” symbology, yet it is also readily connected to the Monarch Mind Control phenomenon. It was also telling that the soundtrack to this was (“Illuminati Princess”) Rihanna’s “Umbrella”. The Tempest / Miranda paradigm was also flagged with a red (Monarch again) umbrella and also included a section where the Miranda character set sail on a red upturned umbrella / “brolly boat”.

The central point of the stadium was a black umbrella. I nearly had a seizure when I thought it had six sides, effectively forming an almost two dimensional representation of the “black cube” – intricate to the Saturn Worship, which is a widespread aspect of the freemasonic / illuminati / agenda players’ belief system. It turned out to have seven sides though! Perhaps six would have been a little too obvious…

The Saturn imagery was still in attendance though. The logo for The Paralympic Games is effectively a graphic of Saturn and its rings and appeared on monitors and flags throughout. The logo consists of 3 “agitos” ("I move" in Latin) orbiting a single point. It is interesting that it sits within the large square (cube) of the 2012 logo. The Paralympic motto: "Spirit in Motion", is also noteworthy. It was also interesting that this flag was raised to the strains of Holst’s “The Planets”. The piece in question was (No not “Saturn”!) “Jupiter”.

How is this relevant? It reminds me of how Stanley Kubrick originally went with the “black cubes” motif, and Saturn as the location of the “stargate” portal in his classic film: “2001 – A Space Odyssey”. It is well documented that his effects team worked on Saturn footage for almost a year before the men in suits stepped in and said, “Absolutely not! We’re going with Jupiter!” Those within the agenda have long laboured their efforts to shift the significance within belief systems (for the perceptions of the masses only) from Saturn to Jupiter. So a nice subtle touch there then!

Despite all of this being hidden within the themes of science and astronomy, anybody who has started to look beneath the surface will know that celestial deification is the root of “accepted” belief systems. In the section: “A Tribute to Navigation”, the nature of the imagery could not have been more apparent when the whole spectacle was flanked by a huge number of dancers forming a hexagon (Cube) pattern across the stadium floor, with lines (rings maybe?) trailing off either side… showing a representation of Saturn as the dominant planet. An unusual hexagonal atmospheric formation has also been photographed on Saturn in the past. Weird eh?!

Another recurring idea that quickly became obvious was the notion of these impaired athletes as “superhuman”. This was reiterated in the accompanying commentary by suggestions that science and technology makes it all possible. They repeatedly explained how “better equipment” makes for “better, more likely to succeed, competitors.” There were also nods (within the literary references used) to “Men like Gods.” This seemed to be backed up with scenes of impaired sports folk flying around the stadium and walking in mid-air. It really does play into the “post-human / trans-human” scenario that is continually applauded by those in the upper echelons of power.

More worrying was the emphasis on military personnel who, having suffered loss of limbs in combat, had gone on to become athletes in The Games. One of those who delivered the ritual torch (who incidentally “flew” into the stadium from the Orbit Tower) was such an example. This, combined with a possible trans-human agenda, is eerily close to the notion of “super soldiers” – an area that more and more alternative researchers are paying close attention to.

As usual, the concept of light and fire was in abundance. There was an action replay of the ritual cauldron lighting from The Olympic ceremony and continual references to “looking to the light”, chanting (close to the start) about “believing in the light”, the song lyrics “eternal source of light divine”, even Bored Coe called the proceedings “a landmark in the progress of mankind toward the light.” The black umbrella eventually became a giant reading lamp (source of light), which broke into seven triangular sections to reveal a golden sphere – incidentally made of several rings.

As the event unfolded, I was struck by how bizarre things were really getting. In the midst of the trippiness, I have to admit to being amused (unintentionally) by the sight of Orbital playing a track with samples from Stephen Hawking. Hawking was placed in the midst of this chaos and the camera tracked past him for a second. It was a surreal sight, like he'd fallen asleep in the middle of an outdoor rave back in the 1990s!

As is often the case with these things, I began to lose the will to live (amongst the incoherence) and simply made notes.There was the usually black, white and red costume/set pieces, several checkerboard patterns, one or two butterflies (again), a maze, a load of green dancers wearing masonic masks and headdresses and several references  (within the framework of “The Tempest”, but ultimately Huxley) to “Brave New World.” There was a giant moon globe hanging over the head of the stadium floor and a sneaky nod to mind control when Miranda is urged to “transform our perceptions” and “break the glass ceiling and set us free.” Even Jon Snow joined in afterwards by saying that he hoped the ceremony would encourage people to “open up our minds and take the next step.”

It was also curious to see just how many royals and politicians were in attendance this time.

A couple of final thoughts: I’ve noticed a few researchers pointing out the heavy involvement of several perception steering groups such as Common Purpose with The Paralympics. Although this wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest (they have affiliations with the London Arts Council, who in turn are associated with these Games), I have yet to look more closely into this. I hope that the likes of Brian Gerrish (who has revealed an awful lot about such activities) will endeavour to highlight any evidence that points to this.

There has also been a disturbing link between 7/7 and The Paralympic Games. Channel 4 (who are broadcasting The Games) presented a film immediately before the commencement of the opening ceremony. The film was about a Team GB Paralympic athlete who has become such as a result of being involved in the tube explosion on that day. Whilst I truly don’t wish to trivialise the traumas suffered by anybody involved in 7/7, I also know that there is a hell of a lot that the mainstream media (and the powers that be) are hiding about it. Continually reinforcing the dogma of half-truths and fear mongering about said fictional terrorists destroys all credibility within the media (as if they have any now anyway!), makes for piss-poor investigative journalism and undermines any attempt to get to the truth of the matter… but I suppose that’s the point in doing it.

At any rate, it should have no place within this setting and certainly not as a sentimental tool to pull at the heartstrings of the masses.

I’m not entirely sure why the organisers of The Paralympics Games have decided that now (rather than a few weeks ago) is the time to pull out the big “illusory” guns. If nothing else, it proves what sick, twisted little minds they have… and why I really should stop paying attention to it.

If we did that though, they’d probably pull a fast one while we weren’t looking!
History has already proven that much.

Until next time.

The Who Sell Out - London Olympics Closing Ceremony

 The London 2012 Olympics have come to a close with what the media dubbed “the greatest party in the world”. Watching the proceedings was an uncomfortable experience for me and gave me the unfortunate opportunity to address a few concerns I’ve had of late about my own life. But I will come to that in due course.

 Much as I’d come to expect, the Closing Ceremony was yet more ritual of subtle (maybe not so for some) imagery and mass perceptual manipulation. From the moment Timothy Spall appeared as Churchill reciting The Tempest, surrounding by a landscape covered in newspaper style slogans and literary references (including one reading “A Martian sends a postcard”!), it was this would be more of the same trite that was unleashed on the population two weeks ago.

 The ceremony lurched from the sublime to the ridiculous: a shedload of all-seeing eyes, checkerboard patterns, butterflies, images of crying athletes, bowler hats adorned with light bulbs, fashion models bedecked in gold, silver and the odd Egyptian headdress, Monarch numpty Russell Brand, Annie Lennox looking like a zombie –surrounded by black and red, atop a flaming sail boat from the River Styx, a giant white pyramid (constructed from 303 boxes – to represent the 303 Olympic events, apparently!), the band Muse getting all demonic, and a huge luminescent octopus with its 8 sucker tentacles spread across the union jack! The only bright spark in all this was Eric Idle’s rendition of “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life”.

 The Queen was, unusually, absent – perhaps she’d used up all the expressions from her scorn face, first witnessed during the Opening Ceremony. An announcer bleated on, at one point, about “these days (of) the cult of instant celebrity status” and Bored Coe received a deafening seal-clap from the stadium crowd when he extolled the success of “the people who stood guard to keep us safe” during The Games. Yeah right…

 I had heard the rumour that The Who would perform and really hoped that it was just a rumour. However, by the end, it became apparent that the rumour was true. It is bad enough that these performers (The Closing Ceremony was built around live music) agree to take part in such tub-thumping, mass distractions… although I perhaps expected more of The Who.

 Watching Roger Daltrey and Pete Townsend beneath a giant flaming Masonic Phoenix (ritualistically born from the ashes of the extinguished “Olympic Cauldron”) really did unsettle me and bring home certain truths about the damning nature of the music industry. When Townsend penned the songs from “Tommy” (of which “See Me Feel Me” / “Listening To You” were performed at The Closing Ceremony), he was addressing many issues such as child - based isolation and trauma and (most importantly) the cult of personality / mass, blind followings.

It was insulting to see how these songs became an anthem supporting the very subject they had once condemned, when played in The Ceremony. The phrase “sell out” could easily be applied to the changes made to the lyrics of Baba O’Riley in the performance. For the occasion, Daltrey sang: “Don’t cry. JUST raise your eyes. THERE’S MORE THAN teenage wasteland.” As the final act of the show, I couldn’t escape the feeling that they were effectively the final ingredient in the casting of a large scale, ritualistic spell.

 I suppose this is ultimately the true nature of much of the entertainment “mass distraction” industry. As a musician who makes a fair amount of his financial “bread and butter” from the trade, I am aware of the potential trap inherent in the field. I have often walked a fine line between a passion for performing / doing the right thing, and “selling out” to some degree. I sometimes find this disturbing and there are times when I truly want to get out of the game altogether. Thankfully, my association is low to moderate level (and unlikely to ever change, given my age and convictions!), yet it doesn’t change the fact that I am worryingly a very minor part of this “distraction trade”.

 Worse still, as my regular readers will know, I was (until recently) front man of a quite successful tribute band to The Who. My first reaction to The Who’s involvement in the event was one a hypocrite. I literally felt like I had been “fooled again”! This initiated a “long night of the soul”, where I contemplated many aspects of my life and just how little I had perhaps “awakened”. I discussed this the following morning with a musical friend who (maybe a little unfairly) said that all musicians are ultimately “sell outs”. She did, however, sensibly remind me that I have a knack of taking these matters a little too seriously sometimes. I initially felt that by being even remotely dismissive and brushing such things under the carpet, totally undermines any efforts made on the part of those waking up to the reality of the world.

 Eventually, I got things into perspective, lightened up and realised that I had been a little hard on myself… especially when she reminded me that, as a musician, there are things I can do to redress the balance. So watch this space in that regard…

 Did The Who “sell out” in time for The London Closing Ceremony? Maybe they did such a thing long before… who can say. I will certainly be eyeing them with a little more caution from now on though. I am not naïve to the reality of the music biz, but it is unfair to tar all musicians with the same brush. There are many artists who have always maintained their integrity and avoided any “serious” level of “sell out” – a good example would be Bob Marley. This is not me making excuses for the profession… but it is in some cases true.

 I realise I have been absent from posting articles recently. Ironically, this has been caused by a heavy musical workload! I do have some projects close to completion that will hopefully mark the beginning of my using music in a more positive light. I will post this material fairly shortly. For now though: stay well and sane, be happy and try not to let the ball get too far out of sight!

Until next time.
