NASA to take the next step


Click to Come and support World Peace while getting T-shirts, Thongs and Shorts


I was reading this news story NASA plans permanent outpost on moon by 2024 they are a bit late for finding the monolith in 2001 or the new sun at Jupiter for 2010. I've been waiting for them to have a base on the moon for 30 years. Maybe what has been holding them up is all the politics and we weren't culturally ready then. NASA - Why The Moon?

But it is a next stage in evolution since the human race must leave the womb of the earth sometime. As Robert Heinlein pointed out "The Earth is too fragile a basket to hold all of our eggs in" Just like the people that 1st sailed the oceans and settled in distant lands their is also a need to spread the the race across the stars. On the other hand are we mature enough to be able to refrain from the mistakes that were made during the colonization of the distant shores of the Earth? Hopefully we have made progress and can live up to the Plaque that was left at the site of the Moon Landing. There are a lot of other factors that would tend reinforce cooperation, one of them being any failure of the enviroment would have instant catastrophic effects on everyone so there could be no wasting of the resources.



I'm sure when NASA left that Plaque they didn't envision what other uses the phrase "We Came in Peace for all Mankind" could be put to use. But if you consider the possibilities this event could be the begining of as much a historic event as the Moon Landing if enough people participate and produce a Tipping Point that leads to the kind of Transformation that Ken Wilber talks about in Integral Politics

If we had that when we went out into the stars it would help the race succeed enormously. A lot of it depends on the amount and discipline of the people involved. A fairly large percentage of the global population would have a greater probability of producing an effect since it would contribute to generating a Tipping Point especially among the Mavens and Connectors to help it spread. Orgasms have always had the "stickiness" needed to produce the tipping point.


That's the trouble, since as a lot of people have said orgasms are going on all the time and no effect has happened. That leaves the part out about the correct focus to produce positive energy. The relaxed state of mind is there, the openess might last for a fraction of a second but then the internal dialogue starts up again and the bliss is lost with any chance of channeling any energy towards peace. That's why some knowledge and discipline is helpful to achieve any results.

While it's true that in some parts of the world like Tibet, India, Japan and China that have had a lot of the practice and discipline to produce and channel the energy needed, the problem is that it's such a small percentage of the global population that has been growing a lot faster than the energy produced could compensate for. That's why it would take a lot higher amount people and a larger percentage to push the idea past the tipping point to embrace transformation.

Getting that many people to focus on any one thing at a time is the hard work since the ones that most need it won't have the discipline or won't even believe that it's possible. Ken Wilber goes into some examples of this when he talks about Deep Science and it's relationship to spirituality. Unless you follow the steps necessary to aquire the skills then you aren't going to get the experiences or the evidence to be able to prove that it works.



If you don't learn how to use a microscope and actually look through it to observe the behaivor of cells then you're not going to be able to get the experiences or the evidence to understand how cells work. Getting enough people to associate a pleasurable experience like orgasms with something positive like World Peace is a step in the right direction, especially if they do it enough to condition it into a habit through positive reinforcement. It might take a lot more than 1 day for the harder cases, but at least it's something and contributes to achieving the tipping point to a degree.

Spider Robinson wrote a lot about the kinds of evolutionary steps we can take once we start living in space in The Stardance Project and having a Global O is a good start to learning them. It's another step along the way to The Future And You.

Come Together to help encourage World Peace

I heard this story on the news about people organizing an event to help encourage World Peace. That they want everyone on the globe to have an orgasm on 12/22/06 and focus on World Peace during that moment.

GlobalOrgasm.org Introduction video
On the face of it, it sounds a bit silly like what beauty pagent contestants say to interview questions, but besides being an attention getter, it also has some deeper aspects to it.




1st thing is, that it's a win/win senario, even if it doesn't get a lasting peace, it will get attention directed away from tragedy and toward something more relaxing if only for a moment. The 2nd thing is that it helps with basic Pavlovian responces, it gives peace a positive reinforcement by associating it with a pleasurable experience. If you continue it then the more likely it is that it'll become a conditioned responce and develope into a habit. That habit would change the world if enough people did it.

I've heard a lot of people comment a lot of negative things about it, that it would result in a spike in the population, it contributes to AIDS and air pollution from the cigarettes smoked after and those are people along with the ones that are too wrapped up in the justifications for war that most need to relax and break the habit of focusing on the reasons why wars happen and get a different perspective.

SkyDancing Tantra

Apparently the naysayers haven't heard much about the rituals in Tantric Yoga since that's part of what they're designed for is focusing the energy in orgasms and channeling it into a change in consciousness. I found great video that Ken Wilber was in that explains some of the principles that make those rituals effective.


He talks a lot about transcendence in his work and in the moment of orgasm is when most people are most open to that. It shuts off your internal dialogue and clears the mind to be able to connect with the bliss essential to a change of perspective. I found a good example of that kind of ecstasy that can alter your perception in this Beautiful Agony video.



Notice how she starts off looking uncomfortable and then her expression at 5:14 is the blissful relaxed kind that is completely open to a change from the selfish ego to connection to a greater whole. It's that sense of oneness and being connected to something greater that will bring about global change toward peace.


It's sort of like what the Buddhist Monk said to the Pizza Guy, "Make me one with everything" and gave him a $20 bill, but he asked for his change, the Pizza Guy told him "Change must come from within" The same thing will probably have to happen with World Peace, only by seeking a peaceful attitude within ourselves will it be able to spread around the globe, if enough people can find that peace in themselves then it will become part of the world also.

That's why having enough people getting used to associating the bliss in orgasm with World Peace would be important. Since it's the people that don't have enough of the experiences to be able to connect with that peaceful state of mind. By doing something that feels good, it's a step in the right direction to change their minds into a more positive perspective. Once they get into the habit it would be easier to learn the rituals, focus and discipline necessary to reap the benefits of Tantric Yoga. But everyone has to start somewhere.
I figured that's a worthy cause to contribute positive energy for a brighter future so to help spread the message I made some T-shirts, Thongs, Hats and Boxer shorts for people to use that would remind them of what they could accomplish. Also a video animation to illustrate some of the points discussed


Having people take time off to have an orgasm would at the very least distract them from doing any more damage if only for a breif period. But if enough people have that focus especially on the Winter Solstice that would help to generate more positive engery for change.

All things in Proportion

Moogirl said in her comment "And see if you can put some BIG boobs on your angels! lol " which was funny since one of my teachers that I showed the Flash web page of my "An Angel's Destiny" novel to said pretty much the same thing.


An Angel's Destiny

Then I explained that Minerva and the angels she worked with in the Elysium Paradise had the attributes they needed for their job. It makes a lot more sense if you read the story or follow with the animation on the web page. I showed him him some examples I did of some angels with different sized breasts. (But here are the big boobs on an angel you asked for)




This is too large for her rib cage and throws off her balance
But this is too flat and ruins the lines of her dress.
That's why he agreed with me that something in the middle is needed with a sense of proportion that fits better on the model. I hope this clears it up for you.

Trying my hand at video content

I've been making a lot of videos lately mostly using Poser animation and Adobe Premiere since I've been trying to get some stuff on Current TV.
I did a commercial for Loreal Shampoo that I thought was pretty goodI figured that angels would be a good symbol of beautiful hair to advertise Loreal Shampoo. I'm also working on a commercial for T-Mobile Phones that has Vicky, Aiko, EmotiGirl and the Freak showing that they need to stick together in the My Favs service plan..



I haven't been able to get the level of participation needed to get it on TV Hopefully I'll be better known and be able to get more votes the next time.

This video was too important not to do since time is running out on being able to save the planet and I still need people to contribute to be able to gather enough resources to stave of certain disaster.



I did this one to show more creativity that can balance out negativity.



The Jackie Wilson song does give it a different meaning and depth as well




I finally finished that PSA let's hope that it helps since the flow of hate is still going. LucyInLA seems to have recovered from the flood and coping better with it, but the anger hasn't stopped and the danger of potential stalkers is still there.




I'm hoping to get more exposure with these but it's an uphill struggle, I guess I have to figure out better marketing strategies but I haven't found any that work yet.

Sowing the seeds of love to offset the anger


Click to get T-shirts, mugs and hats


The level of static flooding YouTube lately has really gotten to dangerous levels and there needs to be something to balance it like in that Tears for Fears song "Sowing the Seeds of Love"



It would be better to do something before something happens to someone on YouTube like what happened to Rebecca Schaeffer when she was shot by a stalker just because he was obsessed by seeing her on the TV show "My Sister Sam"



Some the people commenting on LucyInLA videos have been getting downright scary in invading her privacy and tracking down her resume, phone numbers and harrassing her. For some reason they think they can hide behind screen names and be safe to take pot shots at her while they expect her to expose every detail of her life to danger and don't even realize the hypocrisy of that.

She and Kerim did stand a stand and as they put it "Set the record straight Why hate when you can create." by making 2 videos that explained their intentions and expressed their frustration with the haters She was certainly right to call them freaks and psychos from all the nasty things they've been cowardly posting




The sad thing is that no matter where you go an online community, virtual reality or just down the street to a bar, wherever people gather they bring their emotional baggage with them. If they have issues or problems they are going to take them out on those they interact with. A lot of times they don't see those online as being people with feelings that deserve respect just as much as they do even if they aren't in different avatars like in Virtual Reality. But I doubt they would show people they see in person any respect either since they are probably to selfish to think of others as deserving equal treatment or manners.

They seem to have all these false expectations of Lucy that they wouldn't have of themselves and somehow they think it's alright to put her under a microscope just because she's trying to become an actress that they wouldn't survive under either. That "can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen" attitude disappears very fast when the same standard is applied equally to them. The trouble is that even the big stars in Hollywood don't deserve the abuse that the paparazzi give them but they have a lot more resources to pay PR people handle the tabloids, assistants to deal with their mail and lawyers to deal with threats than Lucy does before she gets her big break.




It might be that they are jealous of the quality they can produce and think that only big production companies can do that but that's just sour grapes and excuses for them not to try to improve. He was right that a lot of it was film 101 and stuff I've been doing myself, although I really should ask him about the resolution and compression probs I've been having with mine.

A very big deal has been made about conspiracy theories and all the cynics and critics want to grab some attention by "exposing the fraud" of the next person on YouTube like they were Woodward and Bernstein breaking the Watergate story. Maybe they think they'll get more acclaim if they do or it fits their paranoid fantasies and delusions of grandeur. They love to fit any circumstantial evidence to their pet theory when it can have a lot of other explanations and they never even heard of Occam's Razor much less use it.

I did think of a conspiracy theory that explains the motives of the haters that has just as much evidence as they have against Lucy. What if the MPAA was feeling threatened of too many indenpendent people producing video of quality and they were afraid their profits were in jeopardy from losing the stranglehold on distribution that they've had in the studio system? Just like the RIAA has fought agaisn't P2P sharing of MP3, the MPAA is going after the most popular on YouTube by planting LonelyGirl15 to turn the people against the independents and setting the haters to flood the place with anger and hate to turn them off of watching. If the cynics have to believe in a conspiracy that one is better than some of the ones I've heard especially that lame contest idea.

I thought they made some very good points especially about doing something constructive instead of just being negative and complaining. Kerim did inspire me with that challenge to do something better and creative and being passionate about a cause. That's why it struck me that it would be a good idea to make some T-shirt designs with that idea, but I shortened it to "Why Hate? Just Create" to make it easeir to fit.

That idea does apply to a lot more than just Lucy, it covers everyone that posts on YouTube since they can hate on everyone they don't like for example. I've also seen some very creative stuff from someone called Happy Slip and if the tide of anger and hate isn't stemmed they'll probably start in on her when she gets more popular.

But I do think that there is something that the creative people can do to balance out the hate and offset the anger by rallying together around a common theme. I've been getting some positive response from commenting on others profiles that show support for Lucy and telling them about the T-shirts with the "Why Hate? Just Create!" slogan to wear in their next video and that will show the cynics and the critics that actually doing something to contribute is a lot better than just sitting back complaining about how fake it is.

If enough people do it then, the slogan could become as popular as the "Fair is Fair" one did in that movie The Legend of Billie Jean It's certainly something people could get passionate about creating is a lot better than the alternative. I figure it would be a good project for a Public Service Annoucement and since I need one for next assigment in my video editing class at Butte College I could one about the whole "Why Hate? Just Create!" concept, how it applies and the solutions.
