Most rare summary of the entire Magical Art (1775?) by the most famous Masters of this Art

Compendium rarissimum totius Artis Magicae sistematisatae per celeberrimos Artis hujus Magistros

(…) The latest coup from the dark arts is ‘Charlie Charlie Challenge’, a Ouija Board-ish pursuit in which players—who tend to be, let’s face it, kids and teens—cross two pencils over a piece of paper and attempt to summon a Mexican demon. According to no less reliable a source than the Daily Mail, four Colombian high school students were hospitalized for “hysteria” after playing the game, which set off an international pandemic of DIY voodoo:


Hundreds of teens have uploaded videos—from the UK to the United States, Sweden and Singapore—in which they ask, “Charlie, Charlie, are you there?” and then flee in terror when the pencil appears to move by itself …



It’s a craze that has gone too far… It’s very dangerous for a young child to play with contacting the paranormal and diabolical,” Doctor Kelven Guerrero, who works at the Hato Mayor del Rey Hospital, told MailOnline.


He added: “It can cause a great amount of trauma in a young person … One of the major problems has been that in order to start playing a child must ask permission of Charlie to play.


But Charlie also has to give permission for the game to end,” he ominously added.


The BBC, for its part, has maintained that the whole thing’s a hoax. Let’s hope not. I, for one, laud the efforts of these brave young people to install the legions of hell on earth and bring about the enduring reign of the Prince of Darkness. But I quibble with their methods.


Pencils have always been among the finest weapons in a Satanist’s arsenal; problem is, these kids are stacking with them instead of drawing with them. It’s downright primitive. To behold the true power of an occultist with good draftsmanship, one need only look to an eighteenth-century grimoire called Compendium rarissimum totius Artis Magicae sistematisatae per celeberrimos Artis hujus Magistros (meaning ‘Most rare summary of the entire Magical Art put together by the most famous Masters of this Art. Year 1057. Do not touch me’), about which the Internet yields little. It’s written in Latin and German; the Wellcome Library, which published a high-resolution scan of the book in its entirety, suggests that it dates to 1775, though its unknown author apparently attempted to pass it off as a relic from 1057. The volume is labeled NOLI ME TANGERE: don’t touch.



It doesn’t take long to see why the illustrator wanted to put several centuries between himself and these drawings. They convey a world of such hyperbolic perdition that you almost want to visit it, if only as a tourist. Genitals spit fire and snakes; hideous, multilimbed creatures sprout heads and pendulous breasts like tumors. In one panel, a string of crimson beads connects a mutated donkey’s knife-cum necklace to the raw end of his penis; he’s carrying a bloody piece of flesh on some sort of fire poker. In another, a litter of flying baby serpents come tumbling from the vagina of a flame-eared, bug-eyed, speckled, bulbous cat-woman. Those are among the two easiest to describe.


You can see (…) images (above and) below. The lesson is clear: the newest generation of sinful mystics is not doing nearly enough to further their art. Together, we can teach these kids to harness evil as a creative force for a darker, less inhabitable tomorrow.

Le pape crée une instance pour juger les évêques couvrant des abus sexuels

Un prêtre pédophile sur 50, ce n'est pas «énorme», mais un prêtre pédophile, «c'est déjà trop», a lancé l'ancien cardinal Jean-Claude Turcotte

Cité du Vatican — Le pape a donné son feu vert mercredi à la création au Vatican d’une instance judiciaire chargée de juger les évêques dans le cas où ils auraient couvert des abus sexuels commis par des prêtres dans leur diocèse.


Les évêques pourront être jugés pour «manquement à leur devoir professionnel» par cette «nouvelle instance judiciaire à l’intérieur de la Congrégation pour la doctrine de la foi». Les associations d’anciennes victimes de prêtres pédophiles réclamaient depuis longtemps que le fait pour un évêque d’avoir couvert les abus sur mineurs par des prêtres de son diocèse soit un délit reconnu et puni par le Vatican.

HEXEN 2039 (2006) & HEXEN 2.0 (2009-11) by SUZANNE TREISTER

HEXEN 2039 (2006) & HEXEN 2.0 (2009-11) by SUZANNE TREISTER, Black Dog Publishing


SUZANNE TREISTER (b.1958 London, UK) studied at St Martin’s School of Art, London (1978-1981) and Chelsea College of Art and Design, London (1981-1982) based in London having lived in Australia, New York and Berlin.


Initially recognized in the 1980s as a painter, she became a pioneer in the digital/new media/web based field from the beginning of the 1990s, making work about emerging technologies, developing fictional worlds and international collaborative organisations. Utilizing various media, including video, the internet, interactive technologies, photography, drawing and watercolour, TREISTER has evolved a large body of work which engages with eccentric narratives and unconventional bodies of research to reveal structures that bind power, identity and knowledge.


Often spanning several years, her projects comprise fantastic reinterpretations of given taxonomies and histories that examine the existence of covert, unseen forces at work in the world, whether corporate, military or paranormal.

HEXEN 2039

By SUZANNE TREISTER
2006


In 1995 SUZANNE TREISTER created the fictional alter ego Rosalind Brodsky, a delusional time traveller who believes herself to be working at the Institute of Militronics and Advanced Time Interventionality (IMATI) in the twenty-first century. IMATI is an independent research institute with government and corporate clients, based in South London.


Consisting of drawings, interventions, a film, a website, a book and an event, HEXEN2039 charts Brodsky’s para-scientific research towards the development of new mind control technologies for the British Military.


HEXEN 2039 (2006) by SUZANNE TREISTER

The information in HEXEN 2039 is based primarily on actual events, scientific research and military histories.


HEXEN 2039 (2006) by SUZANNE TREISTER

HEXEN 2039 reveals links between conspiracy theories, occult groups, Chernobyl, witchcraft, the US film industry, British Intelligence agencies, Soviet brainwashing, behaviour control experiments of the US Army and recent practices of its Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations Command (PSYOP), in light of alarming new research in contemporary neuroscience.


The results of HEXEN 2039 were utilized between 2040 and 2045 in the development of a range of non-lethal weapons for remote alteration of belief patterns in the subject.

HEXEN 2.0 (2009-11) by SUZANNE TREISTER

HEXEN 2.0 

By SUZANNE TREISTER
2009-2011


HEXEN 2.0 looks into histories of scientific research behind government programmes of mass control, investigating parallel histories of countercultural and grass roots movements. HEXEN 2.0 charts, within a framework of post-WWII U.S. governmental and military imperatives, the coming together of scientific and social sciences through the development of cybernetics, the history of the internet, the rise of Web 2.0 and increased intelligence gathering, and implications for the future of new systems of societal manipulation towards a control society.


HEXEN 2.0 (2009-11) by SUZANNE TREISTER

HEXEN 2.0 specifically investigates the participants of the seminal Macy Conferences (1946-1953), whose primary goal was to set the foundations for a general science of the workings of the human mind. The project simultaneously looks at diverse philosophical, literary and political responses to advances in technology including the claims of Anarcho-Primitivism and Post Leftism, Theodore Kaczynski/The Unabomber, Technogaianism and Transhumanism, and traces precursory ideas such as those of Thoreau, Warren, Heidegger and Adorno in relation to visions of utopic and dystopic futures from science-fiction literature and film.

HEXEN 2.0 (2009-11) by SUZANNE TREISTER

Based on actual events, people, histories and scientific projections of the future, and consisting of alchemical diagrams, a Tarot deck, photo-text works, pencil drawings, a video and a website, HEXEN 2.0 offers a space where one may use the works as a tool to envision possible alternative futures.


HEXEN 2.0 is the sequel to HEXEN 2039 which imagined new technologies for psychological warfare through investigating links between the occult and the military in relation to histories of witchcraft, the US film industry, British Intelligence agencies, Soviet brainwashing and behaviour control experiments of the U.S. Army.

L’invention d’une minorité: les Anglo-Québécois (1992) de JOSÉE LEGAULT

L'Invention d'une minorité : Les Anglo-Québécois (1992) de JOSÉE LEGAULTL’invention d’une minorité
les Anglo-Québécois


Josée Legault
1992

































J’ai pris la peine de retranscrire la couverture arrière à la main :


Depuis les années 60, plus particulièrement depuis l’adoption des premières législations linguistiques, une nouvelle voix s’est élevée au Québec, celle des anglophones.


Ses principaux ténors se nomment JULIUS GREY, REED SCOWEN, WILLIAM JOHNSON, The Gazette, Alliance Québec, le Parti Égalité, MORDECAI RICHLER… Ils sont unanimes à dénoncer une majorité francophone intolérante qui opprimerait la minorité anglophone. Ce discours, qui jouit d’une vaste audience chez les autres anglophones de l’Amérique du Nord et donne un portrait mensonger des francophones, propage une désinformation coûteuse pour tous les Québécois.


Il est certain qu’un tel discours trahit la compréhensible frustration d’une ancienne minorité dominante qui voit sa suprématie remise en question. Mais il s’agit d’abord et avant tout – et cet essai le fait sortir de brillante façon – d’une arme politique.


JOSÉE LEGAULT se livre à une analyse minutieuse du discours anglo-québécois et montre comment celui-ci, sous le couvert de la défense des droits individuels, cherche au contraire à promouvoir les droits et intérêts collectifs de la communauté dont il émane. Elle montre ensuite comment les Anglo-Québécois se servent de cette arme dans leur quête de l’égalité linguistique et dans leur refus du statut de minorité.


Un livre démystificateur qui bousculera nombre d’idées reçues.

J’ai ensuite eu envie de le mettre en relation avec ça :


Q and A: Jay Baruchel talks about why he’s high on Hogtown

Brendan Kelly, Montreal Gazette, May 29, 2015



(…) The longtime Montrealer now admits that part of the reason behind his move to Toronto is that « Quebec’s politics did my head in.« 


‘Here he talks about what prompted him to do what so many anglo Montrealers have done in the past four decades and make the move down the 401.’


(…)


‘JB: (… ) It’s just a bit of an easier place to live than back home. The last election was very traumatic in a way.


MG: Why?


JB: I was faced with a truth: I either will just swallow it and make peace with it, like I always have, that this is part and parcel of what it is to live in Montreal, the political climate as it is. It was either shut up or move. It was untenable. It was my fault if I keep living someplace that keeps giving me a headache.


MG: Well, obviously the Liberals won that provincial election. So what I take from that is that separation, the referendum, was one of the big issues in that election, and it’ll be a big issue in the next provincial campaign, and you can’t deal with that anymore.


JB: And it always will be. Aside from that silly stuff, which I wish would just go away but it won’t, it was less that than the kind of poisonous ethnic dialogue, which really, really left a sour taste in my mouth. It didn’t feel like the place that Mom wanted me to live in. She wanted me to grow up in someplace multicultural and to see every complexion of the world on the street, and to hear all the languages, and for that not to be a defeat or a sacrifice, but a good thing and a strength. You come here and it really is a pretty diverse place. Just some of the issues, some of the editorial subject matter in Quebec — it’s from 100 years in the past, man. I wake up here and I’m just a dude in a city. And when I go outside and speak English, it’s not a loaded or political deed of any kind. I’m just living. There’s just way less headaches here. Everything is a bit easier here.


(…)


JB: (…) That’s the other thing I realized: I don’t have a particular (passion) for the province of Quebec. I have a great deal of love for Montreal, but really, more than anything, it’s just my neighbourhood — it’s just N.D.G. So I miss that, but it happens to be located in a pretty difficult part of the world.’ (ouin?) …
