Messenger of Dionysos · Mused by Apollo

In ancient times, Satyr was the horned and horny messenger of Eleusinian forest god Dionysos. He mesmerized the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute and made them dance till broad daylight. In our common present, the spirit of Satyr inhabits the body of a human boy.

Searching for a new way to spread the vibe of the forest, by Dionysian decree, Satyr switched to SL and CDJ instruments, which fit the job quite nicely. Apart from those, he employs the tools Apollo chose: a blank screen and virtual ink, to jot down all he likes to think - hence this his satellite here, orbiting Earth's blogosphere!

reSS Our BS



video created by Omega Point

Earth, 2016, April 2 - The Day after March 32nd. Sounds like a great day to reSS our Belief Systems. Actually, so does any other day, on my humble calendar. But, as I read somewhere online how March 32nd seems like "the only day of the year that people critically evaluate things they find on the Internet before accepting them as true," I will follow in line, or at least I will try for once, by adding a similar take of the same scene, a parallel perspective on the same topic, as posted below. First, to expand a little on the title of the video clip, as shown above to add the (un)usual wink to my words:

anybody else's includes our own
as much as
our own includes anybody else's.

That said straight and set crooked, let us return to Robert:

"Never believe fully in anybody else's BS. I don't care if it's Rajneesh, the Pope, L. Ron Hubbard, Al Gore, George Bush - I don't care who it is, don't swallow all their Belief System totally, don't accept all of their bullshit, all their BS.
The second rule is like unto the first: don't believe totally in your own BS, which means that, as Bucky Fuller said: "Universe consists of non-simultaneously apprehended events." Which means any Belief System or reality tunnel you've got right now, is gonna have to be revised and updated as you continue to apprehend new events later in time, not simultaneously.
This is the natural functioning of the human brain, it's the way children's brains perform before they are wrecked by the school system. It's the way the minds of all great scientists and artists work.
But once you have a Belief System everything that comes in either gets ignored if it doesn't fit the Belief System or get distorted enough so that it can fit into the Belief System. You gotta be continually revising your map of the world."

º

more stories spun by life
than any one book can bind

more space across the universe
than all of science may fill

more truth spoken in silence
than all of our words may find

more time around the clock
than eternity could kill

º

So appear to translate today, as free as words may flow,
the thoughts of a spiritually challenged
secular specimen of humanity,

a slice of Life Eternal,
another You
- just Me

freakuently unanswered questions


? what is Satyr

! in ancient times, Satyr roamed the Eleusinian forests as the horned and horny messenger of Dionysos - the god of ritual intoxication - who dispatched him to mesmerize the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute, and made them dance till broad daylight.

? where is Satyr

! in our recent past, Satyr reincarnated in the concrete jungle of Amsterdam as a DJ. At age ten, he recorded his first mix, displaying his love for early hip hop and electro, and soon his tapes were in high demand. After the Second Summer Of Love, he got turned on by new dimensions of synthetic sound and ventured into the realms of ambient, acid-house, techno and trance music, never looking back ever since.

? does he still play flute

! the Panflute has become an artefact in captivity, held safe and sound in the archeological archive of the Vatican. Yet, since them high-n-mighty early 1990s, Satyr became increasingly skilled as a player of the SL & CDJ instruments, spinning various styles of musica eclectronica, embracing a wide range of the bpm spectrum with remarkable sparkle.

Notoriously difficult to pigeonhole yet sharply focused on and specialized in ambient, chillout, psytrance & deep atmospheric techno; entertaining events for 5 to 50.000 people, by serving his spicy melange of clean cuts and dirty grooves, mixing it down and grinding it up from raw to smooth.

A few memorable events ecstasized by Satyr:
Amsterdam Dance Event (NL), Atmosphere (Berlin), Ballonnenfeest (NL), Burning Man (USA), Club A (Sao Paulo), Dance Valley (NL), Love & Magic (Oslo), Metsafestiwaal (Finland), Pan-O-Rama Festival (La Gomera), The Pi Club (Berlin), Q-Base (Germany), Senseblender Festival (Belgium), Universo Paralello (Bahia / Brazil), VooV Experience (Germany), and many more in Belgium, Brazil, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, USA & all over The Netherlands.*
