Dev Your Reality
The hidden aspect that people may not understand is that the human power of focus is still active and present when people are doing this (scrolling), because that power is always active.
I was watching an old episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime in Japanese, specifically Part 3 of Yugi's Duel with Arkana/Pandora, and I realized how ubiquitous the anime style is at this point, to the point that people don't give the style much of a second thought. When I realized that, the episode got me thinking—as children, we just accepted the parameters of what we were shown as fact, so much so that many of us expected our definition(s) of reality to come from these productions.
The context for this is, through passive media like TV or film, we’re given the vision of the world through the lens of the directors’ and cinematographers’ eyes, and through an unspoken acceptance fueled by suspension of disbelief, we unconsciously fuel the “collective belief” in the reality of this fictional setting/character.
We all participate in believing the illusion that the pictures on screen aren’t the result of people working to craft the images, to then have different people voice the moving images.
The decisions are a result of adults making decisions based on their tastes, culture, and the level of influence they had over the creative project based on their hierarchical position within the project. The reality of production and popular culture is vastly more complex, but that's the gist of the matter.
Building on the ideas presented in the Blog Post The Responsibility of Game Developers and Fiction Creators for the Mental Health of Fans, the suspension of disbelief that occurs when this new media is absorbed fuels the reality of the creator’s vision with what we'll call the "the energy of belief." The idea that belief is an actual energy is part of set of esoteric ideas are not new in the grand scheme of Western Esotericism, however The Idea of "Belief Energy" is a quintessential part of Empathy Software in ways that will reveal themselves in the coming years.
This belief that the audience chooses to or not to direct at the screen doesn’t just fuel the reality of the film and TV. Why? The reason is because everything is connected. Therefore, the competency of the creators, the style of art, and the actual physical studio are also fueled.
The point is, if the creative decisions are somewhat arbitrary (outside of decisions for efficiency, like two-framed rounded parallelograms for anime mouths to facilitate easier production environments), and mostly used as lures and traps for children (when I say "traps," that means either in the most harmless form as a means to make them mentally bonded to the media/brand, or at worst, assault them)—why not happily and freely create as you see fit, even if you have to take extended time to perfect what you’re creating?
If these creative decisions—fueled with enough belief—become what's in vogue and create the standards for what's popular, what's stopping you from tapping that same power?
What if more people took that same power of the fuel of “belief energy” that creates “collective belief” to fuel and master their own realities? You can use the same energy of focus you use to fuel the reality of the fiction to fuel your own art or your own life. You don’t have to give up your relationship to or love of the fiction either—all of these things exist multidimensionally.
However, I think of the ubiquity of smartphones and iPads and the litany of political cartoons parodying the mindless massed glued into their phones. Then, I think of the hidden aspect that people may not understand—the human power of focus is still active and present when people are doing this (mindlessly scrolling), because that power is always active.
You can then, armed with this knowledge (if you’re meant to, of course) stop fueling the power of your focus into the (often grim) realities that many of these companies see for humanity’s future and fuel that focus into…whatever you want! 😃 That’s the awesome part about your power.
Switching gears briefly, I watched Jeepers Creepers for the first time on 8 November 2024, and from a string of horror media I’d been watching recently, I’d been wondering why there’s so much doomerism right now. From that wondering, I made a lateral connection to the kinds of media young men are consuming. With such grim imagery as the focus of some peoples’ minds, we need to understand that those minds are painting a picture about reality, then fueling our reality (not just theirs!) with their thoughts and actions.
To add to the doomerism, go figure that most people are running on “I have to produce endlessly, (not their fault, you have to pay the bills)” which conveniently lines up with the needs of a company.
In conclusion, your decisions are powerful enough to shape the reality that future generations see. Yes, the power to influence is aggregated in a select few hands, but so many times (not always) they’re creating monstrosities. Why else would Skibbidi Toilet, ostensibly Generation Alpha’s Red vs. Blue, be so popular?
Note: In this case, "the power to influence being aggregated to a select few hands" means, in this context, "whoever has the internet connection, camera, equipment, time, understanding, and production means," not necessarily a 1%-er in the tradtional sense
Whatever you're looking up, Millennials are more hardcore.
I promise you.
All of the things going on through Tor Browser are horrific and actively influencing the minds of these young creators (here I mean Skibbidi Toilet and all its derivatives) to believe the world is ugly and crazy enough to warrant such a thing’s creation, gaining massive popularity online.
If something so dismal can get mass appeal...why not use your same power to create to have similar influence? Especially if you don’t have malicious intentions?
The only barrier to use this power, if you’re deemed suitable to wield the power, is your own fear. Choose well!
Make cool stuff!!!
