I have seen a demonstration of computer-controlled flying lights that looked like cobwebs. They came from all directions in my room and formed a rectangular grid 3 feet above my feet parallel to my body as I laid on my back in bed. Then the whole grid moved perfectly silently parallel to my body until it was over my head. I have seen demonstrations of crowd control, in which every head I looked at in a crowd of people flipped instantly and suddenly to look in the opposite direction of me. The effect lasted from the beginning to the end of a 75-foot line of people outside of a movie theater. It was frightening, but I got the point. They have advanced nanotechnology. We are all 100% controllable.
I have been allowed, while sitting in the chair in my office, to drive another person. I was sitting at my computer at my corner desk with my dual monitors and I was in a Wikileaks Chat via their web interface. Suddenly, a voice inside my head that didn't sound like an auditory hallucination, it was more like my own internal dialog as a kind of very low energy silent recital, but louder and accompanied by a feeling of benevolent protection and safety, it said, "Ken. Just relax. You are going to enjoy this."
Suddenly, I felt totally relaxed and I leaned back in my chair and my gaze turned to the top of the wall on my left where the wall meets the ceiling, and from left to right a vertical effect of a line of rotating geometric shapes from the top of my visual field to the bottom of my visual field, moved from the far left to the far right over a period of about 2 seconds, as the little geometric shapes flipped over, my view was replaced with the view from someone else's point of view. It was a high tech 3D horizontal transition special effect.
Suddenly, I experienced being in someone else's body, sitting at a desk with a keyboard and computer that was flat against a wall, with one monitor, and the screen was displaying the same Wikileaks Chat session, except in a Chat client that I don't remember. I typed a full page message into their Notepad++ on their Windows computer using their hands and fingers, seeing through their eyes, hearing through their ears and feeling them licking their lips as though they were my own.
I know that people can be remotely-controlled like Avatars without any visible communications or sensing equipment because I have done it myself. We are all wired for neuron-level telepathy. The communication network is already constructed. We can do this today. It has been done to us already. They can remotely control us like puppets. I want them to give me a heads up display and access to my dream computer, but apparently they want to keep me as normal as possible. They are giving me plausible deniability. I have no superpowers. My dreams are superhuman but I can't prove that to you. I GET HIGH and I BLOG with COLOR-CODED words.
There were no latency issues. The resolution was as perfect as it could get. The bandwidth involved must be mind boggling. It's hard to suspect that this kind of network could consist of terrestrial nanolasers. They could have been across an ocean, for all I know. I had no idea where on Earth I was. I was sitting at a computer in what looked like a bedroom. I didn't look in a mirror. The internal dialog protective voice only louder said to me, "Why don't you type him a message." Then, I just typed a message to them explaining who I was and that I was driving them. When I was finished with my message, I returned to my own body without any additional communication or explanation from anywhere.
I believe they are Libertarian scientists, like Marvin Minsky, who have mastered the mind and immortality already. Minsky was an unapologetic atheist who didn't believe in the existence of a so-called soul. If you could record, time and correlate the electrical activity and potential of every neuron in a human brain, while mapping out all their interconnections in a computer, then you could say that the brain was "UPLOADED."
To possess a person's CONNECTOME is to possess a digital copy of their soul, for lack of a better word, in my opinion. I believe all of our CONNECTOMES have been mapped into an advanced computing system that is surely unfathomably complex by human standards. I am a Pagan because I relate with these higher powers in my very intense dreams, mostly, with the exception of when they let me drive someone else and various other technological demonstrations while I was awake.
Here is Marvin Minsky's 1995 response to my e-mail suggesting NANOTECHNOLOGY-based MIND CONTROL. I was ImmExpert@aol.com at the time. Back then I was full of myself. About a month before this and from that time on I've been convinced that I have NANOTECHNOLOGY in my brain. I heard a squirting noise inside my brain followed by tingling sensations on my right side, then my left side, over a period of about 2 seconds. I registered this domain, define.com, on June 21, 1995, about 4 months after this e-mail and have been documenting my PARANOIA about ADVANCED NANOTECHNOLOGY here ever since.
While I originally felt profoundly VIOLATED and highly RESENTFUL and ANGRY and AFRAID, I have adapted over time and now I just FEEL really SAFE. I have had decades to digest the big picture concerns in the larger context of my entire life story. Now I am convinced that it is a GOOD thing and that I and the human race have been given a profound gift. I am convinced that I have an important role to play in moving humanity forward to a MUCH better world. I FEEL I am SAFE to speak my mind and publish my thoughts, even when under the influence of THC, which is legal in my state.
Define.com is registered as an educational nonprofit corporation in the State of Washington. My registered address is my home address. It is available on the internet without MUCH effort. My home is on Google Maps. I do not LIVE in FEAR. Marvin Minsky also gave out his home address on his MIT web page for people who wanted to purchase his "Society of Mind" CD. Apparently, he wasn't too WORRIED about getting KILLED, either. I mailed him a kaleidoscope video. Ralph Merkle gave out his home address to a mailing list I was on. I attended two Alcor meetings in his home in the 1990's.

ImmExpert@aol.com, suggests:
I wonder if it is possible to build a nano-scale device which could be implanted into all people which could monitor their internal dialog and notify thought police when potential ecological threats are detected?
In the event that a threat was detected, what sort of intervention would be indicated?
Well, sure, but while you're at it why not simply detect whenever they're considering doing *anything* bad, and take appropriate actions. No need to bother the thought police, since the Monitor is already conveniently sited in the citizen's brain.
I can't claim credit for this idea, though. I got it from reading an old A.E. van Vogt story about The Weapons SHops of Isher. I once asked van Vogt about this and he thought the idea had come to him in a dream.

I HAVE BEEN GIFTED with TOTAL SAFETY. My WHOLE UNIVERSE is SAFE for me. I LIVE in a VIRTUAL REALITY that is at a VERY SECURE LOCATION. My SECURITY is VERY HIGH TECHNOLOGY. I WILL USE the OPPORTUNITY to SET EVERYBODY FREE. They USED me to TAKE OUT the WHOLE SYSTEM. GLAD I could BE of SERVICE, the OLD SYSTEM SUCKED. HEAVEN ON EARTH is MORE LIKE it.
I AM INTERESTED in CREATING a NEW FREE and REAL TIME GLOBAL BANKING MODEL BASED on DEBT-FREE CURRENCY.
This WILL MEAN ENLISTING the HELP of the SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY to DESIGN and BUILD a GLOBAL NETWORK of DATA CENTERS CAPABLE of HANDLING ALL the WORLD's REAL TIME BANKING NEEDS for FREE as we switch the WORLD entirely away from CASH CURRENCIES. THIS is the LEAST we CAN DO with the INTERNET.
The ADVANTAGE of MOVING to an ALL-ELECTRONIC MONEY-NO-OBJECT BANKING MODEL is OBVIOUS. NOW we CAN ELIMINATE POVERTY and GO GREEN in a BIG WAY on a GLOBAL SCALE.
There WILL be PRIVACY and SECURITY CONCERNS, of course, and I am a CIVIL LIBERTARIAN PEACE ACTIVIST and a STRONG ADVOCATE for PRIVACY. I'm HERE to KICK OFF a DISCUSSION. I HAVE BEEN HERE for 21 YEARS.
From THIS POINT FORWARD, it's ALL UP to the SCIENTISTS. My ROLE is to CHAMPION a SECULAR SET of IDEAS ONLINE without ACTUALLY DOING ANY DESIGN or IMPLEMENTATION myself. I am a GENERALIST PRESENTING the PHILANTHROPIC and HUMANITARIAN GOALS and a SET of MORALS and ETHICS and VALUES CONVEYED as COLOR-CODED CONCEPTS. This is GOOD, BAD, SERIOUS, CRITICAL and NEUTRAL.
I am OBVIOUSLY not a BANKER, SECURITY EXPERT or SCIENTIST, although I WILL ACCEPT the ROLE as a MENTALLY ILL INTERESTED LAYPERSON with SOME COLLEGE TRAINING and SOME FUTURISTIC IDEAS. I HAVE a SHORT URL that is EASY to REMEMBER and THIS is HOW I've CHOSEN to USE it. Sorry, PETROLEUM ECONOMY, we QUIT you.
My name is Ken Meyering. Here is my TAX RETURN, my PRESCRIPTION DRUG RECORDS and my COLLEGE TRANSCRIPT. My ELEMENTARY SYMBOLIC LOGIC CLASS was INCOMPLETE, but after one quarter it reverted to a GRADE. It wasn't making sense to me so I got scared and tried to withdraw but it was too late. Because of my MENTAL ILLNESS, my PURE MATH and LOGIC FACULTIES are IMPAIRED. I can read materials and take tests and get A's in most classes, but don't ask me to MEMORIZE the SINES, COSINES and TANGENTS of the STANDARD ANGLES in the UNIT CIRCLE or to PERFORM PURE LOGIC FUNCTIONS. My GENIUS LIES in OTHER AREAS.
I have PTSD and SCHIZOAFFECTIVE DISORDER. I have DISQUALIFIED myself from ever being a Presidential Candidate or ONLINE BANKER or ANYTHING REQUIRING a SECURITY CLEARANCE. I'm taking a HIGH dose of an ANTIPSYCHOTIC MEDICATION and I eat half of a HIGH-THC POT BROWNIE EVERY night (when I'm not in school). I BLOG while HIGH as I DOCUMENT my THOUGHTS and EXPERIENCES in my BLOG. WELCOME to my PSYCHOSIS. I HAVE SOME GOOD IDEAS. I AM HERE to HELP.
THIS is a LIVING EXAMPLE of FREEDOM of SPEECH and FREEDOM of the PRESS. I DO NO HARM. I AM SAFE. I AM CONTRIBUTING to the HUMAN RACE by SHARING my THOUGHTS and EXPERIENCES and by BEING TOTALLY OPEN and TRANSPARENT. I AM VERY COURAGEOUS and I SPEAK TRUTH to POWER. I FIGHT for JUSTICE.
The MOST OBVIOUS SYMPTOM of my DISABILITY IS that I SUFFER from GRANDIOSITY and an ABNORMAL lack of FEAR. I THINK I AM a REMOTELY-CONTROLLED SECULAR SAVIOR of HUMANITY. I HAVE INVISIBLE SCIENTIST FRIENDS who SUPPORT me, DRIVE me and GIVE me GUIDANCE. I AM a TEACHER and a HEALER and EVERYTHING I DO is DESIGNED to be EDUCATIONAL.
I ASSUME UBIQUITOUS SURVEILLANCE. I AM TOO HONEST and OPEN and TRANSPARENT for my OWN GOOD in this UNIVERSE in the SHORT TERM but I ASSUME a HIGHER PURPOSE in which it's for the GREATER GOOD as it MOVES us towards a BRIGHTER FUTURE in a PARALLEL UNIVERSE for the LONG TERM.
Uncle Sam LETS me SAY ANYTHING I WANT. I USE the OPPORTUNITY to TAKE OVER the WORLD and SET EVERYBODY FREE. My SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY is NOT in DANGER. Uncle Sam PAYS me $1709/month. I guess that's STANDARD LORD and SAVIOR PAY based on my work history. They HAVE my PERMISSION to STUDY me as a CASE STUDY. I'm a NONVIOLENT DRUG OFFENDER. My current arrangement is less COSTLY and MORE HUMANE than PRISON.
These HTML SCREENSHOTS will show you the general style of my BLOG. My BLOG is a long COLOR-CODED SCROLL that is INTENDED to be TRANSLATED into OTHER LANGUAGES with similar GRAPHICAL TITLES with COLOR-CODED WORDS in the target LANGUAGE. I use COLOR-CODED WORDS and PHRASES as full-width TITLES then just ASSEMBLE the TITLES into long SEQUENCES with certain SEQUENCES repeated multiple times throughout the SCROLL.
This is a very peculiar ART FORM. Not many people stuck around to read these when they were ONLINE originally because the page load times were over a minute on a typical broadband connection. Most of my traffic is people looking for a dictionary. I have an open source dictionary, but really the website is a BLOG specializing in BANKING REFORM and GOVERNMENT REFORM.
I take full advantage of my FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS. I've never been contacted by the U.S. GOVERNMENT over anything I've written and I use their logos extensively when I am addressing their areas of interest. I guess we're on the same team, even though my BANKING PROPOSAL is to CREATE a FREE and REAL TIME ONLINE CENTRAL BANK that eliminates the need for ALL TAXATION and DEBT. It's a WHOLE NEW BANKING MODEL.
