Green Mysticism and Other Carnie Magic Tactics

This is building upon the whole notion I talked about earlier in the week as far as corporate images(sigils) and how they affect us beyond our conscious knowledge. What this picture is of, is a Växtväggen in Sweden. Which as reported by the blog core77 is: "a self-supporting system composed of a reinforced, multi-layered, synthetic and absorbent felt-surface on which plants are applied into small pockets."

It got me to thinking. Aside from the environmental impacts of putting things of this vein all over our cities, how would this effect that subconscious that's being shaped already by billboards, towers of concrete, and other elements of city design.

I mean, it's really quite astounding how much we underrate the environments we live in in terms of their abilities to shape and oppress thought. Consider how much effort and artistic blood and sweat goes into the planning and building of these structures. They are for all intents and purposes works of art. And we live in between them. It's like if you lived between a Picasso and a Van Gogh you're whole life, you know that would influence what kind of thoughts you came up with and how you evaluated the reality around you. This is analogous to our lives in cities beneath these towering pieces of art.

And then when you consider that much of the planning and building of these sorts of structures are handled by oftentimes clandestine city clubs, you're really looking dead at one of the most powerful methods of control those who want to shape the world have come up with.

So where does the plant wall come into this? Well it should be pretty obvious, but one of the methods in which we can manipulate these structures that have been forced upon us, is to simply write back over the top of them. Let the vines grow over those strange gothic designs. Cover those towering phallic symbols into giant trees. Besides sucking up Co2, we can effectively take the city out of our cities. We can reverse the city virus from within.

We can write on their logos and grow plants down their faces. We can install our own realities in front of their realities and effectively divert the massive comet headed our way, juuust enough so that we may latch onto it's energy and surf into cosmos unknown.

Become exterior designers. Become landscaping carnie magicians. Work in accounting for 8 hours and then step out into a forest of green mysticism. See how long you continue to think in the linear terms of the faux-modern.

Have at it.
