Message from thee temple - Psychic TV
once you are truly focused upon your self internally, thee external aspects ov your life will fall into place. they have to.
I loaned my vinyl of this to someone ages ago and never got it back. Occasional pangs of d’oh.
(Written on cover): Recorded by person or persons unknown during thee revolutionary mass suicide at Jonestown, Guyana on November 17 & 18, 1978 of members of thee Peoples Temple of thee Disciples of Christ(whoever he was). This event was directed, stage managed and instigated by thee Rev. Jim Jones. Thee audio quality is, needless to say, not so much hi-fi as low-fi. It does remain however a unique document of thee audible words spoken by thee Rev. Jim Jones and thee participants of this action as it took place.
Thee original recordings now reside in certain files in Washington DC, USA. Those who do not remember thee past are condemned to repeat it. Thee LP was originally issued in 1984 by thee World Satanic Network System (W.S.N.S.) in conjunction with Monte Cazazza and T.O.P.Y. It serves as a finite and clearly defined expample of submission to religious dogma, and control by an insatiable ego. Thee root of social control was acted out to its ultimate conclusion. A gift to a supposedly loving god. Thee original edition numbered 789* copies, one for each dead body at Jonestown. These were picture discs in black and white, hand-numbered in gold. This new edition is unlimited. It is a part of our MODERN ANTHROPOLOGY SERIES.

Beautiful.
I remember, back in the days when I only had a modem, I’d discover hints and traces on the internet of shows that existed somewhere on VHS cassettes, clips that were almost impossible for me to watch, because it took almost a day to download and then it was still the size of a postage stamp. If the internet didn’t spaz out, that is, and I had to start again.
One of those shows was the Infinity Factory. After the jump, Genesis P-Orridge interviewed by Richard Metzger, I guess somewhere around 2000-ish…???
The info itch is an amazing thing when something grabs hold of you and you work with whatever’s at hand: modem, P.O. box, wireless….
I remember back in the day, around high school when I didn’t have internet in a cold city with no college radio and would stay up late listening to Brave New Waves: Zoviet:France and Psychic TV’s Themes 2 invading my dreamspace at 3 in the morning on a schoolnight. Having to tape-trade with people all over the world, mailorder zines, send IRC’s and wait 9 weeks for xeroxed TOPY literature to show up in the mail from some PO Box in Colorado, every record side taped onto a Maxell C-90 was some sort of powerful secret missive. It all felt so wonderfully hermetic and I loved being privy to it.
That said, yay internet all the same. Vuze is running as I type, the podcast folder is doing its’ weekly auto-refill.
Question:
Does a shorter wait time for something reduce its’ magickal value? Or does anticipation, a long wait make things all the more precious when they materialize? Does it depend on the content?
Just curious.
