History

Max Headroom was one of the most innovative science fiction series ever produced for American television, an ambitious attempt to build upon the cyberpunk movement in science fiction literature. The character of Max Headroom, the series's unlikely cybernetic protagonist, was originally introduced in a 1984 British television movie, produced by Peter Wagg, and starring Canadian actor Matt Frewer. ABC brought the series to American television in March 1987, refilming the original movie as a pilot but recasting most of the secondary roles. The ABC series attracted critical acclaim and a cult following, but only lasted for fourteen episodes. The anarchic and irreverent Max went on to become an advertising spokesman for Coca-Cola and to host his own talk show on the Cinemax cable network.

The original British telefilm appeared just one year after the publication of William Gibson's Neuromancer, the novel which brought public attention to the cyberpunk movement and introduced the term, "cyberspace" into the English language. Influenced by films, such as The Road Warrior and Bladerunner, the cyberpunks adopted a taunt, intense, and pulpy writing style, based on brisk yet detailed representations of a near future populated by multi-national corporations, colorful youth gangs, and computer hacker protagonists. Their most important theme was the total fusion of human and machine intelligences. Writers like Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Rudy Rucker, and Pat Cadigan, developed a shared set of themes and images, which were freely adopted by Max Headroom.

Set "twenty minutes in the future," Max Headroom depicted a society of harsh class inequalities where predators roam the street looking for unsuspecting citizens who can be sold for parts to black-market "body banks." Max inhabits a world ruled by Zik-Zak and other powerful corporations locked in a ruthless competition for consumer dollars and television rating points. In the opening episode, Network 22 dominates the airwaves through its use of blipverts, which compress thirty seconds of commercial information into three seconds. Blipverts can cause neural overstimulation and (more rarely) spontaneous combustion in more sedate viewers. Other episodes centered around the high crime of zipping (interrupting a network signal) and neurostim (a cheap burger pak give-away which hypnotizes people into irrational acts of consumption). We encounter blanks, a subversive underground of have-nots, who have somehow dodged incorporation into the massive databanks kept on individual citizens.

At the core of this dizzying and colorful world was Edison Carter, an idealistic Network 24 reporter who takes his portable minicam into the streets and the boardrooms to expose corruption and consumer-exploitation which, in most episodes, led him back to the front offices of his own network. Edison's path is guided by Theora Jones, his computer operator, whose hacker skills allow him to stay one step ahead of the security systems--at least most of the time--and Bryce Lynch, the amoral boy wonder and computer wizard. He is aided in his adventures by Blank Reg, the punked-out head of a pirate television operation, BigTime Television. Edison's alter-ego, Max Headroom, is a cybernetic imprint of the reporter's memories and personality who comes to "live" within computers, television programs and other electronic environments. There he becomes noted for his sputtering speech style, his disrespect for authority, and his penchant for profound nonsequiters.

Critics admired the series' self-reflexivity, its willingness to pose questions about television networks and their often unethical and cynical exploitation of the ratings game, and its parody of game shows, political advertising, tele-evangelism, news coverage, and commercials. Influenced by MTV, the series's quick-paced editing and intense visual style were also viewed as innovative, creating a televisual equivalent of the vivid and intense cyberpunk writing style. This series's self-conscious parody of television conventions and its conception of a "society of spectacle" was considered emblematic of the "postmodern condition," making it a favorite of academic writers as well. Their interest was only intensified by Max's move from science fiction to advertising and to talk television, where this non-human celebrity (commodity) traded barbed comments with other talk-show-made celebrities, such as Doctor Ruth, Robin Leach, Don King, and Paul Schaffer. Subsequent series, such as Oliver Stone's Wild Palms or VR, have sought to bring aspects of cyberpunk to television, but none have done it with Max Headroom's verve, imagination, and faithfulness to core cyberpunk themes.

Max Headroom appeared on the cover of the April 20, 1987 edition of Newsweek Magazine which also featured an extensive article about the character, his history and a peek at the Max headroom television show. Along with the cover story is a short article about Amanda Pays and her character Theora Jones. The articles are dated with references to New Coke and speculations on the future of the character and the television show. In spite of this this is a wonderful time capsule that captures the public awareness of the character at the peak of his popularity The articles have been preserved on this site and can be read here.

Open Your Mind - Illuminati Symbolism

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LEljS3ib84

La canción es de USURA. Con el mismo nombre: "Open Your Mind". Dance de los noventa. Ah, la mejor época para bailar buena música Dance. No como ahora, que todo lo componen drogadictos arrogantes con acceso a deficientes programas de ordenador. Antes había TALENTO. Y buen gusto.

Por eso el autor del vídeo se merece doble alabanza: Por la composición y por el buen gusto de selección de la música.

Hello, friend:

It's my pleasure to help a friend of Youtube! ;)

I understand you: Yes, this matter is quite confusing and disgusting. Too much info, too much people thinking and talking... And too much opposite infos and opinions. And Youtube is filled with many strange videos... Yes, it is quite confusing. And some infos are VERY scaring too!

First thing you must do: Be calm. Be VERY calm. Take this issues with a lot of calm and cold mind. You need cold logic to put the pieces together and understand them.

Let me introduce myself just a little to show you how and why I think what I think:

I am spanish. I live in Malaga. I have been working as 24-hours politician for a few years -about five years. University politics and a little of local politics. I were a member of a communist party. A VERY ACTIVE member. I left it because I tried to be decent... and I were sabotaged by my own companions! As you can Imagine, I have a lot of first-hand experience in politics ("hardcore" politics and "softcore" politics; I alone planned and guided two major strikes against the gobernment), manipulation of truth (and telling the truth), manipulation of masses (using truth, lies, or, most commonly, a mix of both), propaganda, personal corruption (me and others), mass media behaviour (newspapers, TV) and the people in the chairs of power and their true behaviour and way of operating and thinking.

I have been also a researcher of UFOs, Occult, History for many years, as a hobby.
Here in Spain we have a handful of good researchers: Javier Sierra, Jimenez del Oso, JJ Benitez, Iker Jimenez, Bruno Cardeñosa... and some magazines. It is quite easy to follow this issues because there is plenty of info. Of course, I have Internet also.

I have been looking many, many videos in Youtube in the last months. You can see my Favourites (In fact, I tell you again as I posted it in the "open you mind..." comments: Watch every video and read every book that, you think, can help you)

So these are my conclussions:

Symbols do not have power by themselves. But they are used to "simplify" , "channel" and "show" a Reality behind. A complex Reality simplified and canalized for very especific purpouses. Money and Success are the main goals, but not the only ones...

Symbols can be geometric forms, colours, names, nature forces (lighting, sun, moon, etc...) and whatever thing that can make you "think in other thing". Even alphabet can be used; viking runes were used by nazis in Hitler's Germany, for example, because of the pagan tradition of these ancient germanic peoples... but that is another history.

This is a form of Magic, a form of invocation of Power (Spiritual, Soul Powers) and Powers ("Spiritual Beings", "Angels", "Fallen Angels", "Demons", "Devils", "Whatever-you-think-it-is").

This "Intelligent Powers" need someone in the "real world" (our solid world) to bring them back from "beyond" (Whatever place it could be!) using symbols to "open gates on Reality": As you need a machine to open ground and get the oil from inside earth, and get it in a soft, easy way, they use symbols, "sacred" geometry and "sacred" architecture for the same purpouse. Symbols are "spiritual machines". But this is a "Spiritual" work for "Spiritual" purpouses:

As I told you, they look for "blessings" to achieve their goals. Blessings and Knowledge too... Because this "entities" have a lot of info about the nature of Reality and the way to control it. This is the kind of info that the "shadow men" (David Icke's term) have and look for.

Who are these "shadow men"?

Who are these "magic" people who use this kind of symbols for this kind of matters?

We have call them in many names: Druids, Wizards, Sorceres, Pagan Priests, Satanists... The true "Wise Mans" in the top of every jerarchy look the same along the History. That's my opinion based in a lot of facts; just search in History. It is the same knowledge, expressed in parallel, similar, ways. It can not be a coincidence. All come from a common source; or the same people.

What are the roots of this people? Where do they come from? I do not know, really. There are a lot of theories about them, and about their "real names" (who are involved in this stuff) But the fact is that, whatever they are, they are real and have been here for a lot of time, working in the same agenda!

And in this time of History they, the "Wise men", are more "business men" than "sorceres". Of course, that is the "public image" I have from sources like Daniel Estulin and the Bilderberg Group (One of the "not-so-hidden puppet societies") and the videos of Alex Jones. But they work the same old ways with the same objectives: POWER. CONTROL. ENSLAVEMENT OF HUMANKIND.

I know what you must be thinking just right now: "Oh my God! It means they are all aorund us! They control all! They are the owners of the entire world! The owners of me!" Well: The answer is yes... and no.

This people are not like amoral, almighty, ancient-greek gods crushing age-of-bronze-poor-mortals. They look more like a twelve years-old boy trying to manipulate a bunch of hungry, drunken, wolves (Yes, a strange metaphor, but depicts well what I mean). They are very few, weak, but smart, logic people, trying to manipulate a group of big, strong, savage, normally uncontrolable, beats that are right now "a little disabled" (US!) They can not push us a lot because us, like beasts, will aware enough to destroy them with little pitty. So they are very cautious, they are slow, they are patient, using just a little push seldom, enough to put us slowly in the place they want for us. Of course they have not reach that goal yet because we are talking freely about them (something that troubles them a lot!)

They work using "puppet occult societies" to do the hard work, as always: For example, Masonry and Freemasonry are dedicated to build cities and buildings... and take public power and make political decisions (But the "Wise Men" are the only Brains of this "empty bodies", well hidden on the top of the Pyramid, another powerful and popular symbol of this people). But all of this "secret societies" use the same symbols and the same style since Ancient Egypt and Summer. Perhaps earlier... Because I believe that Atlantis and Mu (Oz, Lemuria) were real too!

This is a general explanation. Of course, I can explain most of the symbols of the videos -perhaps everyone- with more detail.

First thing to know: A symbol is not "solid". Can be interpreted in many ways, and new symbols can be created to "manipulate" the reality in quite similar ways. But the Sorceres, in fact, use almost the same bunch of symbols since the beginning of History.

For example: The five points star is a symbol of the "whole divinity" in some sources. We can call the single star (as shown in the USA banner) as a symbol of an entity "nearly as GOD". A reversed star, with two points up, is the symbol of the opposite: Who is the opposite of "GOD"? Well, that is pretty clear, isn't it?

Why so many of "them" (Wise Men) have used a star in their business? To call the power of this "good god" (occult, supreme, good god) to help the business to go up and to show their business as "owned by a Illuminated one" A person "illuminated" in this kind of knowledge, of course! They use this symbols as a secret language to communicate each other without being public and censored too. Would you buy oil from LUCIFER OIL COMPANY? Well, probably not (unless you are a fan of Death Metal! xDDDD). You know what I mean. But, in fact, a LUCIFER company exists in USA, with a lot of involvement in some nasty, demi-occult, issues of the New World Order... but that is another history.

That's the reason of the "Pentagon" strange construction: Sacred architecture. To bring the "powers" needed to help them in their duties. What general would not want the help of GOD himself in a war? That's the way of thinking of this people.

I do not want to be very extensive to do not bore you. If you want more info about this you just ask for it (I will answer every question you made) or look the videos of David Icke (mainly) an his books, and Alex Jones's, but this journalist is more especialized in the "political side" of this story.

Finally, let me tell you this last thing:

Why I said "ask face to face your politicians about all that they are doing! They think we are "cattle" because we are lazy, stupid and ignorant. Be informed! Inform everyone around you! And inform yourself about LAW and your Rights! The New World Order is using the ignorance of people about Law & Rights to create new laws against them! And, if you are brave enough, ask face to face your politicians (this scare them a lot!)"?

That's because my own political experience, and some escenes of videos of Alex Jones that shows that my experience can be generalized. This "shadow" people are afraid of one thing: THE TRUTH. They live behind the shadows since the very beginning of Time, using a lot of resources to maintain themselves hidden. Why? Because they are afraid of LOST EVERYTHING THEY HAVE if they got caught. They use lies, half-truths and a lot of PROPAGANDA and DEMAGOGUERY because that is the only way they have and understand to achieve their goals! The ONLY ONE!

When faced with TRUTH, I saw here people, politicians, old-masonry old-members of a long-tradition-masonry-city, face to face, of this "occult societies", break down; as scared and STOPPED as the people in the videos. I have used this resources by myself to stop bad and evil political laws; I know their power, true power. The power of NAKED TRUTH is amazing!

But, because most of the people of the world are just lazy stupids that prefer watch TV and drinking beers to read books and take responsabilities in the Public Arena of Political Gobernment of their countries, this "wise men" think that we will not have the courage AND the knowledge to face them with the TRUTH just right now -and perhaps they would have time enough to fullfill their bastard plans.

That is the reason why this "Wise men" are taking now control of the world; just because no one is there to ask this simple questions: Why are you doing this? What are your reasons? May you explain your reasons, please? And use LOGIC by the compel of courage, a good moral, or FAITH IN GOD, or whatever empowers your spirit, and insist until the arrogance of this "occult societies puppets" breaks down -their arrogance always break down, more sooner than later, I tell you! And I can tell you also that this way of confront problems do TRUE MIRACLES! As can be seen on some videos of Alex Jones himself.

I know what you must be thinking: Why a man like me it is not involved in Politics anymore? I let my party and responsabilities some years ago tired of threats to my life and, mainly, because I finished my work. The work I wanted to do. I have a vocation as writer to fullfill. But in the future, who knows? Anyway, each citizen have the power and the right to confront their politicians. The right given by being alive and have a brain inside the head. That's all.

I hope not have been too long and dense! Sorry if I have bored you!

I will be here for any more questions. Meantime, I tell you again: Watch more videos. Read books. David Icke. Alex Jones. And, above all: THINK BY YOURSELF ALL AND MAKE ALL THE QUESTIONS YOU NEED UNTIL YOU HAVE THE ANSWERS THAT GIVE PEACE TO YOUR SOUL.

This "shadow people" is above us just because we are SIT DOWN AND QUIET!

See you soon, and happy summer wherever you are,
