HELP everything is falling apart

Chaotic dispersion of relative order will be a slow, almost imperceptible crumble. We are already in its midst. In an age where we are increasingly disconnected from our physical reality, an individual's world is as all-encompasing as the giant arms of the internet and simultaneously pushed internal by an alienating mass culture. And as antidote to this entropic crumble of logical boundaries/labels, I propose a brainstorm of abstractly practical solutions.

I am curious about these unconceivable technological and socio-political dichotomies:

>>the reality of collective conciousness (digital & metaphysical) vs. isolation of urbansingles

>>deterioration of traditional family vs. vast expantion of non-traditional networks

>>avitar vs. self vs. machinebo

>>guerrilla offensive vs. sustainability

Towards this endeavor, I present you with the Scheming Society for Survival of Apocalyptic Futures, a think tank that conjures semi-surreal design to combat impending chaotic entropy/disintegration. .

a manifesto:a daydream

Let information get smaller and increasingly replicable.

Keep tools; glean knowledge. Accessory flow.

Learn survival techniques from survivor species: cling to walls; eat garbage; develop actual, theoretical, and psychological exoskeletons.

The power of the sun can be harnessed and used w/ the precision of a laser pointer or the blind destruct of a lava flow. YOU CAN use easily acquirable materials and shapes to absorb, reflect, focus and refract heat and light energy: tin foil, clear spheres, lenses, parabolas, darks and lights, smoke and mirrors...

If home is where the heart is and your heart is in your body and your body moves around, then by the transitive property of authority, your body is your home. If you want a bigger home, push your 'skin' into walls and let your brain activity real-ize into decoration. Know that these stuffs are illusion and realities are your thoughts and actions--transient and mercurial.

how-to cook your computer

Here's a recipe you can use to cook your computer or any home electronic device:

materials: 2" hard insulation, steak knife, calk, duct tape, drill, meat thermometer, heat gun (relatively cheap at any hardware store)

1. To construct an oven out of insulation, first plan out a cube that will hold the item you want to cook. Next, cut the insulation with a steak knife. Construct your box, sealing the edges with calk and duct tape. Leave one side off, so you can put your electronic device inside. Drill three holes into the sides and top of the box: an input hole the size of your heat gun nozzle; the output hole or vent a bit smaller; and a hole in the top the size of the thermometer.

2. Insert your electronic device into the oven and seal the door shut with duct tape.

3. Insert the heat gun nozzle into the appropriate hole and heat the chamber up to 150 degrees and keep it there for a half an hour.

I'll post some pictures later.
Thanks R.Ruiz!!
