Journal of Possible Paradigms: Happy Spring - 3/23/01
http://www.elfis.net/journal/032301.htm

Hello again. Welcome to another installment of my Elfis Journal.
We've had a couple of Radio:Free:Elfis webcasts since the last
journal entry. Our first official show featured local author,
investigator and underground comics artist, Mack White. Mack has
graciously created the new official RFE animated gif you see
here and on the main Elfis & RFE pages.

If you weren't able to catch Mack's appearance on the show
simply set your web browser or real player towards this url:

ELFIS ZINE ZONES

RnR - Rants & Reviews

Within the Elfis Rants & Reviews department you will find a new
article on the Majestic documents as investigated by Eugenia
Macer-Story.

Operation Abject: The Majestic Joker Turned Upside Down
http://www.elfis.net/rnr/rnrx/abject.htm

[The idea of the covert use of Role Playing Games and On-Line
Games is intriguing. We find the timing of her article all the
more interesting in light of the unfolding paranoic vision of
Electronic Art's Majestic "video game" whose tendrils are
already tangling the ufo/anomaly scene. Keep your eyes peeled
for updates to the saga at the url below listed under the Mind
Kontrol Corner ZineZone.]

Also in the Elfis Rants & Rants department there is a review of
an interesting book...

Salt Dreams: Land and Water in Low-Down California by William de
Buys and photographs by Joan Myers.
http://www.elfis.net/rnr/rnrx/saltdreams.htm
http://www.elfis.net/rnr/rnrx/giantrock.htm

I've implanted photographs within this review that were taken by
myself and fellow Kooks from a trip of ours back in 1999. We
visited the Integratron and Giant Rock, the olde stomping ground
of contactees like George Van Tassel who put on numerous ufo
conferences at the rock. Our visit to Landers California and
Giant Rock coincided with the public announcement about Terence
McKenna's brain tumor. Within the year Terence was dead and
Giant Rock had split. The place had a real surreal feel that I
think our pictures capture. Check it out.

Also, if you haven't bought a copy of the following books... you
should!

MKC - Mind Kontrol Corner

Majestic Art of Mind Kontrol: with fake news sites, threatening
emails and phone calls, sponsorship of real-life ufo researchers
and more, this "game" is but one part of the Phil-Dickianization
of the media and its desynsitization of the public's ability to
discern fact from fiction.

http://www.elfis.net/mkc/mkcx/majesticarts.htm

We recently received a "cryptic missive" from a South American
researcher concerned with the strange goings on within a
Bolivian branch of the global UMMO "cult." Apparently an inside
informant has given this investigator details of strange sexual
blood rituals and millenialist fervor which he fears could lead
to even worse activities. Part of the fun of this article is
deciphering the meaning intended behind the reporter's stilted
English. http://www.elfis.net/mkc/mkcx/bolivianummites.htm

CCS - Cargo Culture Shock

In late January I participated in an interesting local (San
Marcos) event which highlighted the interfacing of Art and
Science and focused discussion (somewhat) around the film 2001:
A Space Odyssey. This event will hopefully be the first in a
continuing series. Before my lecture was a talk by a local
astronomer about using science to learn the details of historic
artist Vincent van Gogh, especially his astronomical paintings
such as Starry Night and White House at Night. You can read more
about this research here:

You might also want to check out this online article about an
underground filmmaker into UFOs and whatnot:

Secrets of the Shadow World:
What do Sasquatch droppings and flying saucers have in common?
George Kuchar, of course.

And... within the Cargo Culture Gallery you will find some of
the images that have been looping on the ELFIS Issue X page.
Among them are the official joint Disney / DoD Mickey Mouse gas
mask, a Y2KFC T-shirt image complete with Grey eyed Colonel and
Sony handycam advert featuring cows exiting a flying saucer in a
corn field.
