The lines between unsubstantial, subjective reality and the objective nature of our experience are continually blurring - if they ever even existed. Time spent sucked into multimedia narratives such as television, movies, video games or books is of no less importance to our lives than time spent in a dreary office or socializing with friends. It is also becoming increasingly possible for us to live these exaggerated roles & fantasies by way of technology's ever growing availability and cost-effectiveness. It is indeed possible for you to be a glamorized spy, superhero/villian, mutant, ninja, digital-pirate cyberpunk or whatever other fictional fancy you may be inclined towards. Just remember you're a first generation model in most of these fields, so it may currently be a limited experience until further upgrades are available for you to pursue these ends. Such deviations from your original self should always be treated with rational understanding and careful self-observance to ensure you do not become lost pursuing such metafictional narrative-scapes.

The issue of persona-building aside, it is important to note that this movement (and many others) is fully supported by free-flowing information and open-source technologies. Collaborative technologies, a growing need for reference materials and troubleshooting, freeware solutions and a DIY mentality are all things which will trend toward growth as the needs of an expanding base of unique end-users continually becomes more specialized.

Some people have been playing this game of living as an exaggerated self for quite sometime now. It's arguably hardwired into the way self-conscious individuals have always behaved. Some users have approached building a structure which is more inclined toward a multiplayer form of this fiction to reality-graft. Alternate reality games are merely a small example of this and often times co-opted for the purposes of advertising or other financial endeavors. Overtime, the game-mentality, which seems to be expanding in it's cultural encompass, could lead to more living-sport mutations where the actualization of fictional fancy is sought on large interactive scales. This may begin to sound like some kind of unconscious LARPing of the future, but it could very well be the way some people begin to view day to day life, especially in light of the challenges which may face individual survival in the coming years - or atleast the perception of such a threat. Internal narratives will continue to bleed into reality and the mass-spectacle of the panopticon will make them increasingly less notable.

Some of these current endeavors are more tech-savvy than others, this is always the case; there are always elite-users, programmers and hackers. On this note, it's arguable that radionics could have fallen into this occultic field of semi-fictional narratives and conflict due to some of the users the technology has been proliferated through and amongst. This makes no mention of the military sector's love of weaponry and a constant stranglehold on science and technology. The results of utilizing electrical tuning equipment as carrier waves for intent inspired from the half-delusional states of mad, backyard scientist or with the aggressive edge of military operations is unpredictable in it's scope and utilization of possibly post-etheric bandwidths. It could be painting the strangest picture no one will ever see in it's entirety.

There are freelance kook scientist out there right now trying to broadcast their games & intent on large portions of the population or individuals. I know they exist because I've met [some of them] and it's a safe assumption that in addition to playing this game, they are in fact actualizing their fictional selves into the hyper-engines they seek to create...atleast, subjectively in their interpretation of events. Of course, we have little to rely on other than the nervous system within this physical shell to inform us on our reality; as such it would only make sense that one's subjective reality takes precedent over objective matters, atleast from an internal perspective. If one is unaware of the circumstances creating a problem & the problem it's self, they will not concern themselves with worry for; likewise, one can easily work themselves into a frenzy over nothing.

Thanks to emerging technologies we will be free of the chains which bind us to the harsher elements of objective, material reality. We are set to begin building our dreams - something I strongly feel we should work with technology to achieve. Given such population figures, if even only a small fraction of the world attempts to actualize themselves and their desires to the aforementioned extremities, it is only natural there would be conflicting desires. Welcome to the Invisible War, Post-5th Generational Warfare tactics will continue to develop as the technoscape of the Digital-Yesod becomes more and more grounded into reality (See Augmented Reality developments and displays like flexible OLEDs as a precursor to Nano-Paper displays or projector based solutions such Pranav Mistry so called "Sixth Sense Technology") It is undeniable that the digital worlds are synthesizing with the tangible.

Technology will obviously be key to shaping the future. Despite this, we will continue to mine the past for it's useful technologies time and time again as we revamp techno-archaeological finds and move forward with looking for solutions to the question of where our Earthship is headed. This revival and usage of technology in a guerrilla-like fashion hints at an underlying theme of anachronism. Some of the technologies are imprinting their intent on the omnifield we exist in either directly or indirectly. We are facing these decisions in technology everyday and they are going unchecked currently. If we develop a feasible time-travel technology what is the immensity of the scale of impact we should expect to see from it's usage? Should we allow genetic modification to crops or animals and let them spread untamed in the wild? Should we allow human cloning and designer embryos? What sort of acoustic/ELF/scalar/microwave weaponry do we deem humane for military or police usage? How much genetic and technological augmentation do we allow for militaristic purposes; do we allow robotic AI or remote controlled enforcers? What are the effects of weather modification practices such as Silver-iodide missile in the longterm? We are perpetually adding new layers of etheric garbage to bandwidths for broadcast: cellphones, nationwide WiFi, "smart" information-carrying electricity on powerlines - what are the biological and etheric results of this information technology's radiation? Do we deploy self-replicating nanotechnologies for beneficial purposes? These are questions of ethics with unforeseeable impacts on the way history will play out; there are ionospheric, geological and biological repercussions for all these actions (not to the mention huge shifts to the political and scientific arenas) which could easily be beyond the scale of our ability to calculate and forecast the trends. Nature is a variable of unknown proportions. Humanity is a conscious variable though. That being the case, we mustn't neglect the development of counter-technologies should these Frankensteins we set loose upon the world turn against us.

We will inevitably do these things and come to agreements on standards and practices, but in the meantime, this is mostly a free-for-all re-emergence of the Invisible war, fought with no maps, for all the territory. It is already necessitated that one use all the tools at their disposal in order to attempt to imprint their desire on such a violently shifting landscape. Only the sharpest of minds will win out longterm and the competition is stiff.
