That sounds like a good possibility, actually I did something similar a long time ago entirely by accident and forgot about it. I have no idea how it worked, but I know how it felt.

He said she threatened to stab him and a policeman so maybe that's why there's a year gap in her videos. She might have been "institutionalised" or something. Still I like her videos even if she does have some problems, there still worth watching. Yeah .... even if she did get locked up in psyche for a year ..... or stabbed a policeman . WTF !

Lot's of soulless zombies about in the world today. Perhaps that's why in Blade Runner they needed a machine to look into the "windows of the soul" to determine what is human and what is replicant. A spiritually aware human can detect the difference, so why the need for a machine? There's a good documentary on Ernst Junger which gets better as they start to talk about technology - Oi ! because dude ....... that is a friggen movie !

Works of art reveal cultural biases by bringing to light hidden aspects of the world - http://lightthroughmcluhan.org/antienvironment.html Blade Runner shows how humans have been made obsolete by machinic "intelligences". Humans are as significant as concrete nuclear shadows. So the nuclear bombs of WWII were a show of technological power and really unfolded an era of post-humanism. There aren't even any humans in Blade Runner 2049, all the main characters are robots and techno-images! That film is about inhuman technological reproduction.

That film is about inhuman soulless technological reproduction. That's one way of viewing it. Another way is to as "what is human?" The replicants may simply be the next step in human evolution. After all, they are conscious, and what is more important, the process of creation of the fact of creation? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Human is a technical term coming from the philosophy of Aristotle used for classification as ideal type. Similarly the words techne and perfection are technical too. Perfection for Aristotle is the same word we use for, God. Anyway, machines are not conscious lol. Same as new agers aren't spiritual. Spirit is a real force, but of course not many people know about that! Edited May 17, 2018 by Aletheia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are not many alive today with the spiritual awareness to acknowledge nihilism, never mind combat it. That girl, Sarah, is just in a bad environment.

Spiritual energies are real forces with real intelligence that work beyond the horizons gathered by technological calculation and I just don't believe people understand that.

CityHermit! Posted May 18, 2018 Just for the sake of discussion rather than endorsing a view, I noticed in the Nina Kulagina video it's said she describes something that sounds like the Du channel at work. I would not be under the impression that the Soviets themselves had given that much thought if any. But also ironic is that the video says she does all that concentration for hours and then is all tired and sick afterward. So much energy going into something compared to a simple limb movement.
