Robert Anton Wilson & Steven 'fly' Pratt: A Serial Killer In The Whitehouse





A teaser from my full audio interview with Dr Robert Anton Wilson, recorded at his humble home in Capitola/Live Oak/Santa Cruz, California (looking out over the Monterey Bay).
This recording was rediscovered in a jumble-bunch of mini discs--if you can remember that flash-in-the-pan format--only last week. I made my first round of rough chapter edits, and here is part 6 out of 32.

ROBERT ANTON WILSON: UNIVERSE CONTAIN'S A MAYBE



ROBERT ANTON WILSON:
UNIVERSE CONTAIN'S A MAYBE


December 16, 2000, Palm Springs, CA.
Speaking at the Prophets Conference ~ Palm Springs (number 8) held at the Marquis Resort Conference Center.

Recorded by Steven Pratt using a portable minidisc recorder. Special thanks to Robert Anton Wilson for encouraging me to record and inviting me to his room afterwards for an exclusive recording and some tasty clandestine reefers.

NOTES:
17th December 2000, Dr. Wilson gave a performance at the Marquee Hotel, Palm Springs, as a part of the Prophets Conference, now (Great Mystery) that marked the second leg of my five year travel excursion around the USA, studying his work and forwarding my own. I hope the sharing of this performance inspires like minded individuals.

I was RAWs care-taker during the three days of the conference and helped him around in his wheelchair, opening doors and getting him to his performance on time.

I recorded his presentation on my trusty old mini-disc recorder, that captured hundreds of hours of my American adventures. I only recently found the disc and transferred it to a 'digital format' so I can now share the entire show. Please accept my apologies for the sound quality and my sad state or organization that has led to this ten year gap from performance to distribution.

"I had a manhattan with my lunch" --Bob

Bobs performance was amplified for me by the fact that we were sitting together with Paul Krassner and his wife before the gig drinking Manhattan's and having a jolly good old belly laugh, I think that Bob was a little tipsy going up onto the stage and really let his bullets fly, getting into cock sucking, the Bush Gore election, Bell's theorem and more cock sucking to hilarious effect. I imagined Bob spiced up his act to impress Paul who was sitting at the front, I must admit that I had to hold back my laughter due to making the recording and not wanting to be chuckling throughout.

In retrospect 'The Universe Contains a Maybe' gives an example of RAWs comeback after his first stroke that left him wheel-chair bound, and his first public speech after the now historic turning point in American history, the Florida election and recount, and recount, and recount.

A line that stuck with me from early in his show was '...if the United States wasn't trying to dominate the whole world, we wouldn't be threatened by Terrorism' and Bob goes on to reference the first World Trade Center bombing, just nine months before 911, and when I now hear Bobs typically brilliant, erudite and fact-filled spoken prose on 'foreign policy' 'corporatism' and the 'Military industrial state's' I wish to accent his anarchist pacifism, considering earth 2010 culture, and his general good will to the disenfranchised, the down trodden and innocent victims of Imperialist, and in this case, American greed, ignorance and violence.

"BULLLLSSSSHHHHITT"--Bob.

Add to Bobs 36 books and thousands of unique and ground breaking articles, his spoken freestyle genius and ability to educate and entertain a crowd like no other sit-down comedian (scientific philosopher) who ever lived, and you start to see the distance from the rest Bob was in his prophesy, although, he would probably not use that term, but here, I think it perfectly describes the content of his presentation, only months before something, like something from out of one or two of his fictional epics; became a new reality. 911, the war on terror, more stolen election activity, foreign meddling, and the banking heists, and the continued war on some drugs.

Even with Bob gone we can revisit his wisdom and wit and laugh along with him, at least temporarily, and each time I listen to one of his presentations I feel safer, I feel that the world is a safer place and feel more optimistic about our collective futures, the emergent technology for realizing the hermetic hologram of art, and collapsing the mechanism for centralized control, corporate monopoly and general brainwashing.

Bob wrote on taboo and censored subjects, subjects that still today still only a handful of investigative journalists would touch, perhaps wikileaks? he has been writing about some of the most challenging things to humanity in a caring and yet viral style, for a long long time, 'things' that some suspect might get you killed, harassed and just generally fucked with.



"Live with Integrity" --Bob

Bob taught a resilience and intelligence and that its OK to write about anything, really, even the truth, and to always question authority, the scientific, religious and militaristic, the richest and the most-powerful, the ruthless and the criminal, question authority and think for your self, and to live your life as if this is your duty, as a writer, philosopher and scholar activist. Whoever you are, I hope you can pass it on.

Please visit the following links that embody my thanks to those who have helped forward the life and works of Bob. May these recordings find bright future audiences and RAW scholars alike and tickle them.

THE TALE OF THE TRIBETABLE: SYNOPSIS 2010

THE TALE OF THE TRIBETABLE: SYNOPSIS 2010

DJ Plush and his two friends Percy and Max have created a Novel method to write a Novel using Turntables and specially made records. The experiments are conducted in 2012 and result in a tale following a tribe of revolutionary scientists, philosophers and humanitarian poets during 48 hours in 1936 that change the course of human history.

On the evening of the 3st of July, Orson Welles is the prodigal genius that has taken New York by storm with his Voodoo ‘Mcgraff’ theatre production at the ‘Appollodelphi’ theatre featuring an all black cast with African drummers and Voodoo priestesses from Haiti. Present at the show are Buckminster Fuller, Claude Shannon and Alfred Korzybski who shares thoughts on the performance, while discussing information theory and synergetic linguistics.

The same evening, Ezra Pound is directing a performance in Rapallo, Italy, where he is joined by William Butler Yeats and James Joyce to bring about a European Renaissance in music, poetry and social happening. The Baroque and Roll concert takes place at the Rapallo theatre and is full of poets, painters, musicians, sculptors, and magicians united in bringing about a new age of art and crafts.

The following day Pound, Yeats and Joyce make a daring journey by train to Berlin and the opening of the Olympic Games where they find themselves at the centre of an international drugs and weapon’s trade conspiracy between Germen, English, American and Russian officials. After a harrowing experience in the Nazi lair beneath the swimming pool our hero’s manage to break free and make their way to the T.V and Radio broadcast studios where they perform a breathtaking poem dedicated to all humanity, after a slight scuffle with the BBC, CBS, RTL and other broadcasters they escape with assistance from Marshall McLuhan, back to the relative safety of Rapallo.

SNIPPED and Re-ripped’ FROM MY FORTHCOMING NOVEL

A TALE OF A TRIBE: OUR HISTORYS BACK.

SNIPPED and Re-ripped’ FROM MY FORTHCOMING NOVEL CONFESSION:
OUR HISTORYS BACK.

Prose Tools, Tribe Table’s and MPHDJ method.

DURING THE AEONS SPENT developing a new MPHDJ method for novel novel composition and historical research nicknamed – tribetablism – Plush has been keeping detailed notes and detailed writings on the subject mutter, which after seven weeks of research and development had become one rather lush Volume if i do say so meself. Plush presented the other two mental patients with a hand bound and illustrated copy of his new workbook.
Tribtable Biomemicry 1.0PLUSH MPHDJ Productions. 12/11/2012.

Stylus: Sword, beak, tusk, claw, antennae, sting, tip, crystal.Cut/splt/ ax, knife-blade, Cutting head, NOSE-AIR. East.

The cutting and etching function of the styli’ combines with the electromagnetic turntable pick-up stylus making a read/write sword/pen that - encodes - all things, made available from the internet of things, with its groove signiture or scratch pattern. The Rhythm, the sound and the colour. Within the realm of biological nature we may find cutting ants, pecking birds, clawing mammals, A walrus tusk stabbing at the ice, beavers teeth knawing wooden logs and trees. All this within the detectable human sensory range. Landscapes can be read/written and interpreted - processed in novel turntriblist ways - with the wax disks and MPHDJ method. Now, using an elaborate system of optics and mirrors that can map, translate and calculate the truly cosmic equations of Universe subtracted from tself, we have a new interface with the reality behind the masks, in some sense.

Traces made upon the surface of a lake by a aquatic finn, or impressions in the mud or wet clay left by a foot or hoof, hair or finger. Artefacts impressed into the planetary landscape. Recordings left for us to reinterpret, left for us by energy fields - spacetime binding creatures - cutting their way through a given medium. All of these traces made by objects are recorded by the objects that made them, the equation always balances itself within regenerative Universe. Balance. Tone. Volume. Yeah yer right! Which always relates back to the 5 elements in one way or another, or the interplay between the five. Within tribetable land, a kind of electromagnetic orgone field permeates everywhere, everywhen. Just like the way the internet of things covers everywhere and everywhen. The intelligence field is within and without itself. Moving on from the question of who owns the reflection, we find Information waves can travel faster than light and so backwards and forwards through our individual perception of linear time, always seemingly moving forwards, at the moment.

One day, or NO-DAY, maybe linear time will become non-linear time and the improbable will become the probable. We work on the other side of time. MPHDJ Pattern identity and resolution of opposites. In flux. In Vortex. In spiral time. In spacetime binding BOOTSTRAPS the sweaty feet of industrious DJ’s tap dance music.

Disk: Shells, Stones, eyeballs, tree trunk-cylinder, flat-fish, lilly pad, Ice-Plate, MountainSigil Graph. Earth, Touch pade. NORTH, Turntable Platter.

Disks of Earth are a part of the complex interface between the symbolic wheels/Sigils and, the manifested language objects within the Tribetable Universe and - INTERKNOTWERK of TINGS - When the Tribetable functions the sigil-disks are rotating, both reading and writing at the same time, effectively. DJ manipulated Blogjects order the components on AMAZON to construct themselves, writing themselves off and onto more conventional data storage devices. Some picture/symbols and images upon the rotating discs are manifest in hologramic form, raised somewhat from the plane of FLAT view.

Microphone: Hairs, Stems, Veins, Penis, snake, tongue, neck, limbs,Brush, Wand of fire. Totem. Table legs, SOUTH.

The tubular wand is a scale invarient model of the Tribetable Universe, a elongated donut. Tube. Hollow infinite string. Within the chamber well of each nerve, worm-hole, root, string, cable, tree trunk, we find conditions and Oscillation rates, that, are exploited and modified in various was by the microwand-phone of fire. To take the word higher. The great totem macrophone contains the tribatable Universe within its endless tube. The Butterly microphones (microphones with wings) fitter about largely unoticed, until they plug into a lillypad disk, by way of the tongue of the turntaopool toad and explode into a cosmology of things. A Finnegans Wake of stuff and things. A collide-o-scope and phalanx of objects, as you will.

Headphone-Cups: Blow holes, mouth, coconut shell, jelly-fish, flowers.Pond Water. Mirror. Taste. Tongue. WEST.

Rotating Platform. Omnidirectional Spirit. Planetary axis. Ball and Socket joint. Slices off the Tube donut.Turntable Tortoise. Tribetable Platter. Tank Turret.

The rotating platforms within the tribetable Universe’s are the multi-functional junctions for the sound spirit. The PIVOT. The axis itself, the measurable rotational rates. Placed within the context of the magickal elemental pentagram of five elements, the rotational qualities of the tribetable functions enable read/write activity. Astrological, Bio-chemical. Cosmogenetic, Nanoconstructors. Microphone to Macrohome. Built by dope demands. The Tribetables operate across scale, are scale invariant, and rhythm patterns transcend any given medium. VIBRATIONAL elementals ensure a full spectrum of considerations. With the addition of in/out portals for the headphones and microphone, the Tribetable, when HYPERLINKED, consists of the 4 main elements and itself, as the fifth.

Each component and the tribeable itself are constructed from a sub group of elements, and so on into fields, spirits, winds and stars. Backtoback to gas and air. Change and fluidity. Hence the revolutionary process. Change and becoming. DNA range and re-arrangement of the stars by way of tables of law, dropping beats other than 4 to the floor. 5 to the cosmos.
