Laszlo’s Speech

It’s cangeing! The nanorobots in the jelly of the brain are sucking out the rusty past and replaceing it with shiny new future! I want to spit on these eyes! What are they good for? Looking and seeing what is already there? Replace them! Look behind, see throuhg walls, see through lies, see throug human emotions! The valnurable human skin, flash, bones and emotions are transforming! These useless limbs! It’s so slow! Change them to wheels, propellers, ramjet engine all at once! What kind of inside does it have anyway? Even a slough of a dead deer can punch through it’s slim outside cover and cause fatal damage! Forget food, forget water! Feed it with gas and uranium! It’s inside is changing! Undestructable stainless steel structure is replacing it’s disposable lungs, heart and guts! Control the world, power, money! The electric force is radiating it’s skin to become as powerful as a shield of a tank! The larve is becoming a beautiful butterfly! It’s DNA molecules are mating with microchips! This is the product of mankind! Bypass GOD and EVOLUTION! BE GOD AND EVOLUTION!

What do you think?

Manifesto sections we are concentrating on…..

sorry about the delay guys…..

F. T. MARINETTI and PINO MASNATALA RADIA (1933) LA RADIA MUST NOT BE1. theater because radio has killed the theater already defeated by sound drama (x) 2. cinema because cinema is dying (a) from rancid sentimentalism of subject matter (b) from realism that involves even certain simultaneous syntheses (c) from infinite technical complications (d) from fatal banalizing collaborationism (e) from reflected brilliance inferior to the self-emitted brilliance of radio-television   (X) 3. books because the book which is guilty of having made humanity myopic implies something heavy strangled stifled fossilized and frozen (only the great freeword tableaux shall live, the only poetry that needs to be seen)      (?X?) LA RADIA ABOLISHES 1. the space and stage necessary to theater including Futurist synthetic theater (action unfolding on a fixed and constant stage) and to cinema (actions unfolding on very rapid variable simultaneous and always realistic stages) 2. time 3. unity of action LA RADIA SHALL BE 1. Freedom from all point of contact with literary and artistic tradition. Any attempt to link la radia with tradition is grotesque 2. A new art that begins where theater cinema and narrative end 3. The immensification of space. No longer visible and framable the stage becomes universal and cosmic 4. The reception amplification and transfiguration of vibrations emitted by living beings living or dead spirits dramas of wordless noise-states 5. The reception amplification and transfigurahon of vibrations emitted by matter. Just as today we listen to the song of the forest and the sea so tomorrow shall we be seduced by the vibrations of a diamond or a flower 6. A pure organism of radio sensations 7. An art without time or space without yesterday or tomorrow. The possibility of receiving broadcast stations situated in various time zones and the lack of light will destroy the hours of the day and night. The reception and amplification of the light and the voices of the past with thermoionic valves will destroy time (???????) 8. The synthesis of infinite simultaneous actions 9. Human universal and cosmic art as voice with a true psychology-spirituality of the sounds of the voice and of silence 10. The characteristic life of every noise and the infinite variety of concrete/abstract and real/dreamt through the agency of a people of noises 12. Words in freedom. The word has gradually developed into a collaborator of mime and gesture. The word must be recharged with all its power hence an essential and totalitarian word which in Futurist theory is called word-atmosphere. Words in freedom children of the aesthetics of machines contain an orchestra of noises and noise-chords (realistic and abstract) which alone can aid the colored and plastic word in the lightning-fast representation of what is not seen. If he does not wish to resort to words in freedom the radiast must express himself in that freeword style which is already widespread in avant-garde novels and newspapers that typically swift quick synthetic simultaneous freeword style 13. Isolated word repetitions of verbs in the infinitive 14. Essential art 15. Gastronomic amorous gymnastic etc. music 16. The utilization of noises sounds chords harmonies musical or noise simultaneities of silence all with their graduations of appaggiatura crescendo and decrescendo which will become strange brushes for painting delimiting and coloring the infinite darkness of la radia by giving squareness roundness spheric in short 17. The utilization of interference between stations and of the birth and evanescence of the sounds (for scene changes) 18. The delimitation and geometric construction of silence      (?????) 19. The utilization of the various resonances of voice or sound in order to give a sense of the size of the place in which the voice is uttered. The characterization as the silent as semisilent atmosphere that surrounds and colors a given voice sound or noise

Intro Speech

Do not attempt to adjust your televisions radios, or computers. this is not a test. We have taken over all forms of media, you are locked into this Broadcast.

The Robot, the cyborg, man, machine. Cybernetics. THIS IS THE NEXT STEP OF HUMAN EVOLUTION!! We are taking control of our own pathetic existence finally; something that should have been done a long time ago.  Finally, man and machine are becoming one. They are Fusing to create a more powerful organism than ever seen before!!

Skin, blood, bone, cartilage, sinuous matter, gray matter, marrow, soon these will all become outdated and historical. For years we have been able to create stronger and more effective organisms, and now it is time we begin to accept that we have progressed further than evolution allows. Nanotechnology and Cybernetics are the Future for the human race. The human body as we know it is flawed. For too long it has been far too easy to get injured or die. Imagine being able to lift cars with one hand. Be able to see through walls, hear a fly buzzing around over a mile away, possibly even move items with your mind, or fly! Years ago this would have only been a dream. Now all of this is reality! We must accept this as a collective and embrace this incredible change! Anyone who doesn’t will simply move down the natural progression of existence, and simply cease to exist!

The so called “God” that so many people live by and abide by has got lazy and forgotten about our civilization. Where are the miracles that we have read so much about! THIS IS BOLLOCKS!! The Divine intervention that so many of us wait for WILL NEVER COME! Accept this and take control of how you live, and what your body can physically do! Now we will show you the endless possibilities that cybernetics in this broadcast. You will not even begin to comprehend the things you can do with these mechanical evolutions. Dont hold back, join the next step for the Human Race.

BEHOLD, SUBJECT 42 (kris)
