How Do I Know - Information Towers in the Age of Psycho-Babble



I was listening to the angst in a monologue on the RT news soundcloud channel with the title: "Online information on the level of valid military intel?" and it got me thinking about the general breakdown of our information structures as we seemingly enter into a more suggestible and superstitious age.

So as I listened to this guy from RT expressing his anxiety over getting poor quality information, instead of "valid military intel," I was inspired to do a Tonepoem on the situation.

My views are not his at all. I do not believe we need "military grade intel". We do need ppl who are disgusted with "military grade intel," and have a tendency to laugh at mass theosophy, history, or any other thot based on ideas of mass. After all, it is much better to grasp things from the point of view of charge.

Tonepoem - How Do I Know?

Notable Quotable 

Winston Churchill had once said: "True genius resides in the capacity for the evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information."

... I would imagine that Churchill had a great deal of guilt riddled and personally biased military grade intel to deal with? Each and every piece undoubtedly filled with images of salvation and damnation and he needed to evaluate all of that uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information in spite of bias, whether his or others.

The above Tonepoem How Do I Know? fits nicely with similar Tonepoems I have done about militant guilt riddled revisionist cultures breeding an increasingly paranoid and suspicious psychological type where military grade intel goes all to hell!

Hope the mashup is appreciated as an artistic way to represent the frustration and anxiety we all feel over "trusted sources" in our brave new world. As always feed back is appreciated.
