I must claim that such a movement is imminent because I have developed such ultimate psychological technology in myself, and know that it can be opensourced and reproduced like any other subject matter. Indeed such an opensourcing is what I have been doing for a long time, to greater and greater degrees of clarity. Alfred North Motherfucking Whitehead was my finishing school, and he will be the standard point of reference to understand The Next Movement and accellerate it.

In addition to my art videos, the best thing I can really do to accellerate this process is give dank book recommendations. For this purpose I have created an Omniquery Canon, a selection of the best books I could find on the subject of human creativity. This canon has and will continue to change, and can be found here: https://old.reddit.com/r/omniqueryinitiative/comments/djxli4/third_update_of_the_omniquery_canon_the/

I strongly believe that one ought to only read books that are so tempting to one's curiosity by virtue of their subject matter that one cannot resist reading a book once discovering what it intends to explore: a book should offer enthusiastic consent, or else one is being raped by being forced to read a book against their will. So I merely encourage you to look up any of these books that catches your eye and see if they inspire you enough to read them. This is the correct stance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9nFs2PeWw0 not only when it comes to reading books, but education in general, and life in general: I fully believe that society should operate via enthusiastic consent from top to bottom. Only the use of delicious carrots is acceptable; the stick is never an option, as coercion is anti-education.

If you watch just one of my Special Blend videos, I'd recommend the Tao of Creativity: https://vimeo.com/265524091 It is my most passionate love letter to human creativity, it's purpose isn't to present an argument but rather to inspire.

It isn't just physical sensations that can be created using this mechanism. "Seeing visions" is the same process, enhanced by deep meditative states where the line between imagination and perception is blurred. As a starting technique to help you replicate this, close your eyes and focus on the black static in the center of your visual field. You may begin to see fuzzy, very faint shapes emerge and change on their own. To try to make them form into a particular shape, one must have the anticipation of them being one, to simultaneously hole the desired shape in the mind's eye while focusing on the center of one's field of vision simultaneously. I find that simple shapes such as cubes and gears work the best for this.

The cumination of all of these techniques is the creation of a fully immersive hallucinatory hyperreality, "astral travel" or inducing a lucid dream state directly from a wakeful state. Such a state is prized among mystical practitioners as it affirms their beliefs as real by creating the total perception of it by one's expectations of what one will experience.

Sexual pleasure can be induced using this mechanism, as well as emotions. When a Christian says they "feel God's love" they are reporting physically experienced emotional realities, they feel a powerful emotion of love tied to a fictional character. It is no different in nature to the "waifu" phenomenon or teenage girls falling in love with celebrities who are effectively fictional characters compared to their real, experienced lives, known only through media and stories. The Society of the Spectacle is capital wielding simulacric perception-building not just to manufacture desire, but experience itself, mediated by images. Depression and anxiety disorders are characterized by repeating loops of thought - ruminations - that are perceived to be reality, and so become emotional reality and self-reinforcing, negative thoughts and emotions that have ceased to serve the purpose of identifying a problem and resulting in resolution and have become pathological. /pol/ and the alt-right is a death spiral of self-reinforcing hate and fear that becomes a reality for those infected until hate can no longer become satisfied by mere words and images, it must become act - with recent history showing the inevitable outcomes. The hope is in that courage and love can be cultivated the same way not as hyperrealities but in real relationships and actions, the cure for simulacric parasitism is in self-reinforcing self-awareness and self-creativity, but that must start in awareness of to the degrees by which your experience can be subverted by simulacric processes.
