Musings On The Finite Statist Machine

One of the things that has always fascinated me was the ability of art, artists, music, musicians, satirists, comedians, and other performers to shatter programming, illusions, and habitual patterns in people. Its also the reason they are often the first to persecuted by religions, dictators, and another control freaks who have no sense of humor or art in their soul. We have been programmed to expect wisdom and truth to come from men in pin striped grey suits..

Yet the trickster archetype endures throughout the eons the cosmic joke that laughs at the illusion and seriousness.. see below the videos for an interesting article on the trickster archetype… the un-balancer of rigid equations… should you choose to inquire more on that…

And what place has more illusions, “authority”, habitual patterns and programming than New York City? Dancing the streets of NYC is ‘crazy man’ Matthew Silver, video editor and part-time street performance artist of love, shattering the illusions and complacency of everyone he contacts.

There’s no limit what a person can do if you don’t care what people think of you, or who gets the credit for the good stuff that comes from it…
“I love all of you!”

Words of Wisdom from an Unexpected Citizen

“You can’t be free if you judge people!”

Authority is an Illusion

Stop Buying Stuff, Love is the Answer!!!!!

The Trickster

Thursday, December 2, 2010

I have had a long time interest in the trickster figure. I gave a talk on this subject in Houston, Texas, in February 1965.[i] Before that I would have read anthropological studies about this figure, particularly Radin’s classic monograph.[ii] At this time I had no idea that I would have, a decade later, to take more than an academic curiosity in this enigmatic character.

Anthropologists and folklorists have described and compiled hundreds of oral stories about the Trickster from folk societies all over the world.[iii] The actual number of trickster names is difficult to count: in one dictionary there are over 30 different names, and possibly this could be increased.
