Hypno Politics, Hyper
State Control, Law Entrainment and the Symbolic Order
Spliced Culture by Konrad Becker
“Whatever we do, we are communicating and interacting all the time;
rapport is a tool that gives instant access to other minds.”
—El Iblis Shah, The Book of Half-Truth
Magnetic Somnambulism
The term animal magnetism dates from Viennese doctor Franz Anton Mesmer, in
the late 18th century. Mesmer built on ancient Masonic concepts of illness as
evidence of an imbalance of a universal fluid within the individual. He believed
the process was physiological but invisible just as electricity and magnetism
are. At first he magnetized objects which his patients could then touch, but
later found out that simple “passes” of his hands were sufficient
to put patients into trance states. Once Mesmer had dispensed with actual magnets,
there was no talking during the treatment. The passes, the music, the setting,
the atmosphere were factors which were to increase indirectly the effect of
the suggestion which induced an alteration of the state of consciousness, they
were hypnotized.
A state in which mesmeric action can be exercised to influence the subjects’
will and nervous system is rapport, a connection depending on interaction with
time-based patterns. Rapport is established by getting into resonance with activity
patterns, then taking over and driving the pace. The practice of “animal
magnetism” was changed when Marquis de Puysegur, a disciple of Mesmer,
focused his attention on what happened to people in deep hypnosis. He named
this “magnetic somnambulism” and observed that symptoms and behavior
could be influenced by what the “magnetizer” said.1
Hypnosis theory and practice anticipated much of psychoanalysis and hypnotic
procedures were adopted by the founder of psychoanalysis. Sigmund Freud translated
books written by the leading practitioners of his day (Charcot and Bernheim)
but later met with some discouragement, such as difficulties in hypnotizing
many patients, and lack of long-lasting changes in those he did hypnotize and
sought to escape the hypnotism label for his work.
Dream Nation
Dictionaries define hypnosis as an induced sleeplike state in which the subject
readily accepts the hypnotist’s suggestions. A derivative of the Greek
word “hypno” meaning “sleep,” hypnosis is a “sleep-like”
state and not sleep itself. Everybody has been in various hypnotic states many
times without notice because it seemed natural. Hypnotic states are normal for
humans and animals. People frequently lapse into a hypnotic state, triggered
anytime a person remembers a sequence of events.
Hypnosis is associated with hyper-suggestibility, whereby subjects accept suggestions
at deep levels of consciousness. Anyone is hypnotized as the common link between
most situations of hyper-suggestibility appears to be a narrow selective focus
of attention resulting from such diverse conditions as sensory isolation, relaxed
attentiveness or extreme fear. Apparently, there is no single common EEG pattern
in hyper suggestibility, which could make hypnotized individuals distinguishable,
though there are hints of unique evoked potential responses. Many do not recognize
the state of hypnosis because what they expect is to become unconscious. But
unless you achieve deep somnambulistic levels, this is not what a hypnotic state
is likely to be. Language itself is infected with the unconscious to the point
where language is a collective unconscious dream.
State Control
Automatic activities like taking a shower or driving a car allow daydreaming
and favor states of hypersuggestibility. Drifting from an alert state into a
different level of consciousness, brain activity shifts as these states change.
Everyone goes through altered states of consciousness at least twice a day—when
you awaken and when you go to sleep.
Being aware of things going on around you, doesn’t mean you’re not
hypnotized. Even when in hypnosis, you remain conscious of everything that is
going on. Experiencing this light or medium hypnotic state is generally more
effective than deep level hypnosis for purposes of behavior and habit control.
Becoming more conditioned to the hypnotic state through successive sessions,
the subject will continue to go deeper into trance each time.
Particular states of selective hyper-suggestibility are brought about by the
use of a combination of relaxation and fixation, directing attention to an imagined
activity, dialogue, or event resulting in literal interpretation of speech and
severe reduction of conscious thought.
Induction Codes
Linguistic tools match the subject’s ongoing experience while moving smoothly
to altered states. Words such as “and,” “as,” “because,”
“while” and “when” are linguistic bridges used to take
a person into trance. Even when there is no logical connection, if you join
them with “and” it appears that there is.
Truisms linked to an indirect suggestion that presupposes the subjects will
go into an altered state, linked to a physiological inevitability make the hypnotic
response seem impersonalized and hence automatic. By disassociating and de-personalizing
processes normally thought to be validations of our consciousness, and overloading
the conscious mind through self-referentiality Senso-Linguistic infiltration
makes it easier to stop trying to do anything consciously. As the map is not
the territory, internal representations carry some reality but do not reflect
what actually happened. Internal representations and physiology are linked in
a cybernetic loop. As subjects are told what to think, their behavior is a result
of the state they are in.
Hyper Politics
Hyper state control mechanisms convey ideas that guide the focus of attention
through language. Whatever you fix your attention on, you get more of. When
subjects focus their attention, they have less of it left for external sensory
stimuli as words paint pictures in their mind. The frame of perception influences
meaning and the success of hypnotic induction. Meaning is created by the frames
you choose to use, the context you create. A given perspective with its inherent
dimensional distortions is loaded with visual interpretation and is a major
effect of many optical illusions. Individuals with the biggest variety of choices
would be the ones who have the broadest range of ways to look at things and
hence the greatest scope for control. Reframing can decrease opportunities,
which in turn decreases flexibility and power.
A typical move for a political influence group would be to set up news services
for metadata-manipulation and subpropaganda. Intelligence Agencies put their
intelligence into cooking infobytes from raw data for the editorial section
of newspapers. Journalists or editorial boards benefit from lines they did not
have to write up and willingly accept them when issued from a neutral front
organization. Who needs censorship, when “extra-intelligence” infobody
styling is available? Power itself is invisible, is experienced by its effects
only. The question of who or what is in control remains unanswered as only its
representation appears and what lies behind it is lost. (Ambassadorial systems
are costly but highly effective inducers.) The war of representation systems
is fought over standards and references. Hyper state control is a means of heightening
motivation by programming the subconscious mind to work in active cooperation
with implanted conscious desires and is therefore extremely effective in helping
to create behavior modification.
Dimensional Framing
States receptive to hypnotic suggestion are likely to bring about sensations
of hyperreality—more detached or more connected than usual to your surroundings.
Using every element of the environment to build the subjects’ experience
is a key to immersion. Using everything and feeding back to the subjects what
they observe is essential to successful induction. Distractions are incorporated
in order to take subjects even deeper in trance. A seamless tapestry of the
imaginary space, building a rich sensory description of a desired state will
create a rich sensorial experience in the subject while changing state through
reframing questions.
An information-menu is a special form of map. Symbolic orientation systems attributed
with the aura of objectivity are a traditional subject of military and extra-intelligence.
Distortions from dimensional effects and the use of perspective have always
been an instrument of power and topographic maps are processed and manipulated
for strategic reasons. In world maps, projections of a 3-D sphere onto the plane
are propagandistically used regarding size and the center of power. The trapdoors
of perception are wide open for travelers on territorial maps. With the complexity
of a non-linear information system, as in hypermedia one can expect not only
enhanced retrievability of data but also a field for manipulation of a higher
order. A major threat in modern life is being killed by your own defense system,
which has been triggered too often by direct and indirect hypnotic suggestions.
Automatic clusters of deep trance phenomena that act as our patterns of defense.
Not taking responsibility for the frames then means that something else will...
Memory Construction
The concept of memory as a tool and set of techniques, that can be learned and
skillfully applied to form mental and ideological spaces has a long tradition.
Its use as a weapon to establish symbolic orders can be traced back to the earliest
records of domination. Pre-modern societies based their social memory on the
interaction of oral transmission and information in pictorial code. Artificial
memory is established through places and images, a virtual psycho-geography
of synreal systems, strengthened and confirmed by training. Regulated by the
state through an education system controlled by a priestly elite, sensory perception
can be harnessed through the visual representations of extremes or analogies
which will then be methodologically applied in the creation of mental scenarios
and punctuate the individuals development through ritualistic ceremonies. A
monologic tyranny of monuments radiating the wonders and mysteries of the symbolic
order, memorials of a spectacular reconfiguration of memory. These scenarios
introduce an “arrow of time” and an inherently political narrative
logic to a mental structure of psycho-civilization, dependent on collective
ritual re-enactment and performance, reinforcing hyperlinks of cognitive associations
within the ideational bunker.
Embedded Commands
Even though the Milgram experiment on Obedience and Individual Responsibility2
showed that humans possess the capacity to relinquish their autonomy, people
find it difficult to accept that individuals can be hypnotized to perform an
act that is against their moral principles. US Army experiments suggest that
this popular perception is untrue. On the contrary they concluded that people
could be induced to commit acts contrary to their morality if their reality
was distorted by hypnotic state control. One of the experiments involved trying
to manipulate a normal, stable army private to attack a superior officer, a
cardinal sin in the military. While in deep trance he was told that the officer
sitting across from him was an enemy soldier who was going to attempt to kill
him. In the private’s mind, it was a “kill or be killed” situation.
The private immediately jumped up and grabbed the officer by the throat. The
experiment was repeated several times.
Department of Psychology chairman at Colgate University, Dr. Estabrooks, one
of the most authoritative sources stirring up fear of mind-controlled sixth
columnists in wartime USA stated, “I can hypnotize a man without his knowledge
or consent into committing treason.” 3
Nested Images
The middle levels of hyper state control are the ones in which behavior modification
will occur most easily and the ones in which one is most susceptible to posthypnotic
suggestion. More important than what has happened in someone’s life is
how it is interpreted. Brainwashing is not necessarily achieved by punishment
or reward but by changing the self-image, reprogramming and breaking psycho-cybernetic
loops, control circuits of affirmation and denial. Humans can tolerate only
small amounts of discrepancy between their thoughts and behavior. Goals or outcomes
are related to certain behaviors and/or physical things—the way you feel
about something.
A traditional technique of memory artists from pre-modern days to today’s
television shows is to assemble a large number of places, or loci and place
into these receptacles images or simulacra of what is to be remembered. The
manipulation of the psychological impact of images in dimensional space to create
memorable imprints is a key to how people store vast amounts of information.
This mechanism can be manipulated in a reverse fashion. Techniques are used
for both mind clearing and amnesia. The suggestion is given that any suggestions
given will not be remembered by the conscious mind, but the subject will act
upon them nonetheless. The suggestion is given that the more the subject tries
to remember the suggestions the more they will be forgotten.
Decognition Training
Hyper State control as a political tool uses psychologically coercive techniques
in order to indoctrinate subjects. The end justifies the means to form an elitist,
totalitarian society. If you make a person behave the way you want, you can
make that person believe what you want. Hyper-State control techniques are based
on the same principles as mind control techniques studied in social control
systems of cult groups and social bodies in general. Among them are practices
of isolation, regression, meta-communication (implanting subliminal messages
by stressing keywords or phrases in long, confusing explanations), and group
pressure. The aim is alertness reduction, programmed confusion and flattening
of the mind. The chthonic will express itself against the conscious mind, when
ordinary thinking is silenced, distracted, or thoroughly deranged.
Electronic Dissolution of Memory (EDOM) is accomplished by “electronically
jamming the brain with microwave technology, causing excess amounts of the neurotransmitter
acetylcholine to create static which blocks out sight and sounds.”4 Memory
can be stopped for as long as the radio signal continues. The awareness of the
person skips over the time during which he is subjected to the radio signal.
Any memory of the incident is gone, the mind is blank. Memory is distorted,
and time-orientation destroyed.
Social Styling
Creating anxiety and fear, inducing states of high suggestibility and controlling
relationships to assure loyalty and obedience are standard management techniques
of the social body. Desensitization through language abuse, propaganda and junk-information,
as well as the elimination of individual ideas through repetition of chants
and phrases or the inducement of dependence by introducing sports, games or
TV shows with obscure rules, are part of a large set of social styling methods.
Pumping up disorientation, susceptibility to emotional arousal is increased
by depriving the nervous system through special diets of junk-food, prolonging
mental and physical activity and withholding rest and sleep. False intimacy
is created through emotionalism and the need to belong is exploited while suppressing
resistance through peer pressure. Affirmation of lifestyle by denouncing other
values and beliefs combined with encouraging blind acceptance and rejection
of logic is achieved through complex incomprehensible doctrine. Strategies of
influence include removing individuality by demanding conformity to dress codes
and accomplishing automatic acceptance of beliefs by discouraging questions.
Loss of ability to evaluate logically is achieved by preventing privacy and
destroying the ability to evaluate information, personal reactions, and body
functions in relation to passage of time. The destruction of individuality is
advanced through confession of personal weaknesses while creating a false sense
of identity by pointing to the shortcomings of others.
Other methods include composing child-like obedience by orchestrating child-like
behavior and disinhibition, while inducing regression and disorientation by
soliciting agreement to seemingly simple rules which regulate lifestyle. Promoting
acceptance of authority by promising advancement and power while maintaining
confusion by alternately rewarding and punishing similar actions. Encouraging
bunkering in and dumbing down through induced loss of reality by separation
from communal life and rational references, while the spectacle is designed
to give the illusion of sociability, public interaction, and of choice.
Non-Lethal Action
It seems likely that in the future nations will be more and more involved in
multiple conflicts in which conventional military force cannot be applied. This
will involve hostile populations in situations where the application of non-lethal
force will be of tactical or political preference. Numerous articles in military
publications with titles like “Weapons Of Mass Protection: Nonlethality,
Information Warfare, And Airpower In The Age Of Chaos” refer to this subject.5
There are a number of physical agents that actively interact or interfere with
the biological processes in an adversary in a manner that will provide armed
forces the tools to control these enemies without extensive loss of property.
These physical agents include acoustic, optical and electromagnetic fields,
and various combinations thereof combined with behavior control techniques and
drugs. The Cold War and Korean War in particular boosted mind control research
and the emergence of ‘Brain Washing’ as a common term. Supposedly
the term was coined by a magazine writer later found to be a secret agent of
influence. 6 Postulating a ‘brainwashing gap’ intelligence agencies
got the go-ahead for research. Hypnosis, drugs, and psycho-surgery; all were
tools in this quest for a truth serum and the ability to create agents whose
missions could be tortured out of them, or who would not be aware that they
were carrying secret information given to them in an altered state of consciousness.
Sophisticated drugs combined with lobotomy and the implantation of electrodes
were considered methods for creating “very special agents.” Electro-Convulsive
Shock, combined with LSD, sedation for days at a time, and constant replaying
of the patient’s own voice through helmet-mounted headphones was a notorious
recipe for mind control.
Mind Modification
One CIA mind control project in the 1950s aimed at finding ways to protect the
security of agents in the field was project BLUEBIRD. It attempted to discover
means of conditioning personnel to prevent unauthorized extraction of information.
During the project, another goal was established-the evaluation of the offensive
uses of unconventional interrogation methods, including the use of hypnosis
and sophisticated combination of drugs. Later renamed Project ARTICHOKE the
objective was the creation of a “Manchurian” killer marionette with
an electronically blanked memory while MKDRACO was developing brain telemetry
and intra-cerebral control devices implanting micro-receivers in the frontal
or temporal lobes. Various other projects like STARGATE investigated possibilities
of using telepathic control or remote viewing for military purposes. It has
been repeatedly suggested that after the termination of MKULTRA, the umbrella
for special research purposes, the CIA shifted its programs from public institutions
to private cult groups. Several eccentric religious groups and movements were
organized or co-opted by intelligence operators. (including among others the
Peoples’ Temple, the Symbionese Liberation Army, the Ordo Templis Orientis
(OTO), Finders and Switzerland’s Solar Temple). As privatization of the
public sector is increasing, with commercial prison facilities, private police
and security forces, this seems a natural step.
Psychotronic Stimulation
In 1953, Dr. John Lilly’s goal was to find regions of the brain that controlled
different bodily functions. From the use of electro-stimulation, he discovered
the part of monkeys’ brains which controls pain, fear, anxiety, and anger
and he was able to locate the part of the brain that controls erections, ejaculations,
and orgasms in male monkeys. The CIA approached Dr. Lilly who cooperated for
a short period of time before dissolving the partnership because of the likelihood
that his work would be used to develop electronics to remotely control human
beings through the use of strategically implanted electrodes in the brain.7
Large sums were invested in military applications of psychotronics, biocybernetics
and behavioral neuropsychiatry with the aim of cybernetic control of populations.
In one case the subject placed under hypnosis was mentally programmed to maintain
the determination to eventually perform one specific act. Thereafter, each time
a particular muscle twitched in a certain manner, he increased his determination.
As the hypnotic spell was renewed again and again, reinforced by radio stimulation,
he made it his life’s purpose to carry out his mission.
Microwave Discommunication
The Soviet Union invested large sums on microwave research. In 1952, the Soviets
began directing a microwave beam at the U.S. embassy in Moscow, using embassy
workers as guinea pigs for low-level EMR experiments. Discovered in 1962, the
Moscow signal was investigated by the CIA, and code-named Project Pandora. There
was consensus among Soviet EMR researchers that a beam such as the Moscow signal
was destined to produce blurred vision and loss of mental concentration.8
It was reported that the American ambassador at that time later developed a
leukemia-like blood disease and suffered from bleeding eyes and chronic headaches.
Under Project Pandora, monkeys were brought into the embassy, exposed to the
signal and were found to develop blood composition anomalies and unusual chromosome
counts. The CIA used the opportunity to gather data on psychological and biological
effects on American personnel. US government turned the job over to the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) which further developed not only electromagnetic
weaponry but also the Internet. It has been suggested that SDI (Strategic Defense
Initiative) was a cover up for research & development of electromagnetic
weapons.
The public was never informed that the military had planned to develop electromagnetic
weapons until 1982, when the story appeared in an American technical Air Force
magazine. The article stated, “...specifically generated radio-frequency
radiation (RFR) fields may pose powerful and revolutionary anti-personnel military
trends.” 9 The article indicated that it would be very easy to use electromagnetic
fields to disrupt the human brain because the brain itself was an electrically
mediated organ. “The ability of individuals to function could be degraded
to such a point that they would be combat ineffective.” 10 Laboratories
supposedly worked on the development of “brain bombs,” which dropped
in the middle of crowds would produce microwaves, incapacitating the minds of
everyone within a circumscribed area.
Electric Emotions
In 1996 the New York Times reported on Dr. Michael Persinger, a neuroscientist
at Laurentian University in Ontario, and his experiments with solenoids and
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation.11 T.M.S. exploits the fact that neurons are
comparable to electrical devices. When a nerve cell is activated, it triggers
a flow of electrons and, when reaching the nerve end, the electrons induce the
release of chemicals that pass to neighboring nerve cells. Thus stimulated,
those cells continue the process throughout the brain.
T.M.S. allows the programming of patterns at which the fields will fluctuate.
The impulses move through the temporal lobe and penetrate deep into the brain,
where they interfere and interact with the complex electrical patterns of the
subject’s neural fields. The new sequences spread through the limbic system,
producing sensations that range from subtle to profound and can produce rather
bizarre experiences such as thumb moving, while the visual impression of the
subjects is that it remains still.
The magnetic device can produce mood changes, sadness, happiness, sexual arousal,
and the experience of sensing a negative presence or benevolent force. Focused
on the hippocampus, the device produces ecstatic effects but “If you interfere
with the opiate pattern, people get very irritated,” Persinger says.
Mesmerized Data
On the possibility of directly accessing every human brain by electromagnetic
induction of fundamental algorithms, Persinger postulates that geomagnetic effects
on the human brain may be responsible for the inducement of false perceptions.
Paranormal and religious beliefs may be mediated differentially by subcortical
and cortical phenomenological processes of the temporal (limbic) lobes. After
two decades of research a potential technical capability has emerged to directly
influence a major portion of the approximately six billion brains of the human
species by generating neural information within a physical medium within which
all members of the species are immersed. This medium is the atmosphere of this
planet. In Alaska, the HAARP (High frequency Active Auroral Research Program)
facilities are a $100 million “scientific endeavor aimed at studying the
properties and behavior of the ionosphere with particular emphasis placed on
being able to better understand and use it to enhance communications and surveillance
systems for both civil and defense purposes.”12 According to the Department
of Defense “The health and safety of the public has been a primary focus
in the design...” Do angels play this HAARP?13
Synthetic Cults
Social disorganization develops crisis cults or projective systems resulting
from culture strains. These cults and systems serve the function of self-identification
of its adherents to a certain set of values. The syncrecy within those cults
relates to the diversity of the origins of cult elements, belief elements and
artifacts gathered from religions, folklore and spiritualism, and is actualized
through rituals in the frame of post ideological technocracy. Researchers on
the field of mind control suggest that the UFO-abduction phenomenon is staged
by the intelligence community as a cover of their illegal experiments. Abductees
claim that they were transported to an underground facility. Almost every federal
agency or military institution has several secret underground facilities all
over the USA. Some of them so secret, that there are only rumors about their
existence. Otherworldly journeys to strange underground places are common in
UFO abductions. Did the abductees undergo hypnoprogramming during the kidnapping?
The Cult Awareness Network’s definition of what is a destructive cult
closely matches the practices of domestic human testing of involuntary subjects:
“A destructive cult is a closed system whose followers have been unethically
and deceptively recruited through the use of manipulative techniques of thought
reform or mind control. The system is imposed without the informed consent of
the recruit and is designed to alter personality and behavior.”14
Virtual Patrol
Virtual State Patrol controls the hegemony of resources of interpretation. The
monopoly of conceptual space has no choice but to commodify imagination and
to hardwire desire. Awareness and thought are appropriated, packaged and sold
back to the public. Production of wealth in the empire of signs is the reproduction
of scarcity and the cyber policed poverty of everything outside. While the geography
of power guarantees the effectiveness of separation and borders, hypermedia
data cooked behind predefined windows is beaming meaning into the eye of the
beholder. Like icons of saints in churches or the decoration of a stage illusionist,
the electronic medium channels images of idols and sigils of desire through
tele-visions of public awareness—a permanent broadcast of an image-based
totalitarian gospel pacing the biomass. The concept of the Evil Eye becomes
easily understandable within the framework of an all-seeing pervasive network
of surveillance and scanning systems. Mass Population Identification Tracking
Systems shaping our data bodies form a ghostly doppelganger virtually taking
over our legal existence. The “primitive” fear of having ones’
soul stolen by the automaton gaze of a camera on the way towards direct neural
linkage and implanted bionic eyes rings true after all. That which is real but
is not seen in the grid of the digital metaverse has the power of the occult,
of the imagination and by its very existence challenges the world of commodified
images and consensual reality. Even at its most hidden it exercises a secret
magnetic effect bringing about subtle changes.
Symbolic Order
A technology such as writing, although external to ourselves, supplements and
extends our internal brain memory system. Like a Shadow out of Time, the equivalence
of dreams and books becomes apparent in the long tradition of dreambooks. According
to ancient traditions a cosmos is contained in the alphabet and letters are
pictures of supernatural realities and universal archetypes in complex non-linear
relationships, not just mere abstract signs or phonemes. Canonical texts in
this tradition were written as hypertext with various layers of meaning and
corresponding ideographic visualization methods, many of them linking stars
and script and abstract entities. The book of law for the Data Body is a living
Book of the Dead, a silicon necronomicon of digital demons, a Julia-set picture
of irrational numbers and self-fulfilling prophecies on liquid paper. Intelligent
libraries of autopoietic grimoires, self-modifying databases and intelligent
software entities in hieroglyphic codices are trained to detect and react to
patterns of activity sets on a wired planet. Anything transferred in symbolic
exchange is the vehicle of meaning and information just as cults and believe
systems have always functioned as informational networks and have been media
itself.
Invisible Intelligence
Nonlinear hypermedia networks allow the subject to reach deep into the seas
of information, but something out there might be reaching back. As El Iblis
Shah put it: “The infosphere of the planet might crack open for the return
of invisible forces beyond reason beating the drums of madness.”
