Introduction to Hypnosis

A house of sand toppling lean.
Chaparral burning mondegreen.

░░ 16-BIT — SEMI-HUMAN WERE-CREATURE / VIOLENT NEON GREEN / PRIMEVAL FOREST ░░
16-bit: less wolfish semi-human were-creature in morphological glitch — more humanoid features, less fur, distorted eerie appearance — dominated by violent neon green — dark mystical primeval forest backdrop, twisted trees, faint ghostly light — surreal and unsettling atmosphere.
We act as animals or automatons but surely not as "people."

16-bit: acephalic non-entity in more apocalyptic setting — headless figure, abstract and distorted, ghostly fragmented silhouette — backdrop of dystopian wasteland, ruined buildings, smoky skies, scattered debris — symbolizing decay and end of times — dissolution and chaos.

A Grave Concern
When I leave this Earth.
I increase in worth.
So get in now.
If you dig my dirt.
Lend me your inbox.

It's All Just Little Richard

The weed is making you crazy.
Feels like a heart attack maybe.
You're a sunken void.
Getting fucking paranoid.
It's okay.
You're okay.
Lost November.
Come what May.

Full disclosure.
Copter.
Take hover.
I'm in the angry gorilla enclosure.
Apeshit conniption fit carsflipover.
I've got the kong in me.
Style strongly.
Superheavyweight.

Beatbox and snatch.
Waxed slacks.

Panic atax.
Cold calm.

There's no fixing us.
In this eunuch hour.
A preservationist's approach to perfume will only sour.
A unique urine tinge.
A conservator scowls.
Yellored books for unlit wooks in a babblong tower.

Gone on.
Too long.
Witless.
Pitiless.
Pissant.

People always wonder if you're gay.

Become Nothing
The pure attraction of an earlier Internet was its promise of disembodiment and immateriality.
The user used.
Your hand on the leash.
Depart reality.
Separation.
Now we find in the web's manipulation a crisis. Duplicate. Replicant. A mirrorball comparison. Conflation. A mockery. A haunted shopping mall. A stalker. A gang-mob. Bosses.
There will come a scandalous day when some as-yet unknown digital forensic marker for "AI"-generateed content will expose some supposed-schizophrenic shamanic aspirant as A Fraud, but I tell you Now Today:
I go in raw.
Awe shit.
Lossless.
Upside-down.
Double-crosses.

I don't want to be on video.
I don't want to be in your photo.
I don't want to go on a Zoom call.
I don't want to be on at all.

A Niche Rapper Has an Unlikely Hit
"Took her down in the priest costume she got religiously e-dicked."
Then he kind of mumbles. Says something about a precinct. Then lots of sirens and gun-shot sounds, and an uncleared Above the Law sample, (which is itself a sample), that leads to a prolonged and nasty legal mess.
His manager was embezzling fucking everything anyway.

Akasha Corp:
GAPING AI (Writing Notes in Public and Leaving Them There)
░░ AKASHA CORP — EARLY 80s SOFTWARE COMPANY LOGO / PIXELATED / HYPER-MINIMAL ░░
Refined logo: "AKASHA CORP" in clear pixelated font, early computer graphics, more defined and legible — "AKASHA" larger, cleaner pixelated letters as focal point — "CORP" directly below, smaller, equally legible — reduced background elements, low bitrate retro digital look — hyper-minimal spare, dark simple background.
AKASHA CORP - "Hollywood cracked in half that day."
THE IDEA:
Caught on chat logs and prosecuted by automated AI for using Forbidden Words. Full retroactive application until we find The Purest One, Who Has Said None of It.

What if time-travel were invented, but it was only for specific sensory faculties, or the sensory faculties trickled in over time like the transition from radio→TV→cinema etc.
What if auditory time-travel were used to retroactively blackmail/cancel people, or to strike them from some historical record?

Well, you know, I've always hated the term "damnatio memoriae," cuz how the FUCK do you pronounce that out loud without sounding like a total asshole to everyone, or seeming like some type of H*rr* P*tt*r Twerp or whatever, right, but it's such a useful term, or the thing that it points to is, so I reckon what we need is a damned neologism . . .

(exact year indeterminate) → SUBJECT types furiously into CHATBOT, awaits response . . . OUTPUT To create Greek-derived words that could represent the concept of all-encompassing or total hearing, analogous to "panopticon," I will blend various Greek roots that are relevant to hearing and the idea of totality or completeness. Here are five etymologically valid words, crafted for their poetic resonance:
Pantakousia: Combining "pan-" (all) with "akousia" (hearing). Suggests the idea of hearing everything, akin to the panopticon's seeing everything.
Holakoustos: From "holos" (whole, entire) and "akoustos" (heard). Implies a state where everything is heard or within auditory reach.
Panakoe: Merging "pan-" with "akoē" (hearing, the sense of hearing). Suggests an omnipresent auditory perception.
Kykloakousia: From "kyklos" (circle, cycle) and "akousia." Could imply a circular, encompassing system of hearing.
Aionakoustēs: Combining "aion" (age, eternity) with "akoustēs" (listener, hearer). Suggests an eternal or timeless listener.

OUTPUT
Creating Latin-derived words for a concept analogous to "panopticon" but focused on hearing, we can combine Latin roots related to sound and totality. Here are five words that are etymologically sound and chosen for their poetic resonance:
Omnisonus: From "omni-" (all, every) and "sonus" (sound). Suggests the idea of all sounds being perceived or encompassing all auditory phenomena.
Totiauditio: Combining "toti-" (whole, entire) from "totus," and "auditio" (hearing, the act of listening). Implies a state where everything is heard.
Omniauris: Merging "omni-" and "auris" (ear). Suggests an omnipresent or all-encompassing ear — hearing everything.
Circumsonus: From "circum-" (around, about) and "sonus." Could imply a surrounding, all-encompassing system of hearing, capturing sounds from every direction.
Aeternauditor: Combining "aeterna" (eternal) and "auditor" (listener, hearer). Suggests an eternal listener, someone who hears all things across time.
→
Totiauditio: Combining "toti-" (whole, entire) from "totus," and "auditio" (hearing, the act of listening). Implies a state where everything is heard.

Yet Another Way I Got Rich Was
(A Lazier Idea)
Creating a multi-media property called 'The Doomed Aunt Network' about a group of so-called "contemporary cat ladies," veering into spinsterdom, in their tidy city apartments and considered outfits.
No one is entirely sure what level of ironic detachment this is operating on.
It assuredly comes from no place of superiority.
Hell — we'd all like to meet these ladies.
That's why we're here.

Space Flying Tiger Interlude
(Pesadilla del Sr. Vacío Arpista)
Mark Stain was the worst promoter in all of Delaware.
So it was no surprise the show came to disaster.
Took the gate as a favor for Mr. Entertainment. Claude couldn't make it. Had to drop it cuz of some chick had a pregnancy scare out in Arizona, somewhere. Tucson. Something.
So here I was, subbing.
Scrubbing for Stain.
The ring ropes were too loose.
So when I went to do my shit.
To my disdain.
I fell on through.
Cement glue.
