       This is MyCn18 hourglass nebulaeThis is what we can see about the end of a celestial life, what manifests after the functional period of an organized system implodes.To me this is a vivid example of re-birth, a transition from one aspect of existence into another. A grand chalice, and a central eye of BEing and awareness.I would steal just a moment to speak with you about decay. At what rate does information fall from being inclusive? What holds data to be recalled, and what nurtures experience forward.Data decay is a visible phenomena. You would say its relevant to machines and data storage, but there is a unique interplay with that and consciousness. What is held in memory is held in decision making. Whats held in that is the foundation of our identity.We are witnessing the mass absorption of massive complexes of information to be digitized right now. We are also witnessing the great homogenization of said material. The raw and personal is being combined algorithmically into blanket awareness.From the individuated and colorful expression pulled from the unique beauty someone harnessed, the cliff-notes are rendered. The information that set one apart, the unique quality of those expressions, are mixed to abridge the depth of expression that sparked insight.We are watching billions of books be discarded every day. All the painstaking work from the author editor and publisher to hone the messages, we look for them in web searches. Yes, many we can still find in PDF, but many unfortunately lost to the code.Why should this data decay phase us? Simply when your past is amalgamated into a restructuring, your history and memory is modified. When its condensed digitally into non human components, it is transitioned out of recall and into the vault of decay.This is a real and dangerous activity we are now fully vested. Do you remember how CD's were supposed to last forever? That is not factual, in fact they are now showing us how quickly time erodes their efficacy.Tape the same, and I'm sure you understand when hard drive fail. The loss can be catastrophic, but to whom? The loss is felt by the human who wishes to relive the moment of creation. The original, not the remake or copy, but the moment someone touched their beauty so profoundly it changed the masses forever.But clearly not forever, if we don't remember. This is the side effect of digital culture, no memory. If you don't remember the art and culture, if you don't hunger to hear that music again, you become lost in current flow of events without reference of passion.Passion is the generation of creative flow. Tapping into your unique tangent in human interaction. The fundamental expression only you hold to give away to the world. When you strip the memory of the past you loose the capacity to build on what got you to this time in history, and then who ever or whatever was done can not be accessed in the way previous generations existed.This is the existential threat of our @MINDS in this time. To be forever shortened in retention that the past becomes inconsequential. To just "go with the flow" without any real motivation to what made now possible. I think this is what the elders are trying to bring forward into the youth, for they remember what life was like before device culture robbed us of that civility.You see, non attachment is a direct outcome of data decay, for we don't hold space culturally the same way. We simply thirst for new inputs to entertain, to pass time and say we have lived. Only nature can sustain life, but if we don't prioritize it then the ability to remember how to sustain ourselves is slowly eroded, and all the tricks our elders used given over to the loss of those memories.Like this little star which once shone so brightly, it must be reborn under new context. What you have to ask yourself is simple, do you want your children to trust the current central data control system? Because as the last generation before all this harvesting is telling you, your use of free will is compromised in the modern era.I Love You- Credit: NASA, ESA, Hubble; Processing & License: Judy Schmidt
