“It’s Up To Us Now.” (DRAFT!) March 11, 2009

jasper07test02g

NOTE: This was originally planned as Jasper 07, but has been usurped in this position within the Jasper series by another, newer collage of the same name. See here.

“Strange Jasper 07 work, perhaps, Hucka D.”

Hucka D.:

Yes. Queer. 5 of you.

bb:

Baker Blochs, you mean.

Hucka D.:

Yeah. Sorry.

bb:

Should we attempt an interpretation tonight?

Hucka D.:

Feeling groggy still.

bb:

Just 08, 09, and 10 to start from scratch now, Hucka D. And, actually, 10 will make an animation with 1.

Hucka D.:

The next one will go further with TILE. Beyond this one.

bb:

This one may be obviously about Rubi Forest and the relationship to that fairly similarly sized Corsica Island forest that has since been derezzed. Now I find the expanded version of Corsica Island has a Rookwood sim, the greenest sim of the lot now. We know now this may refer directly to the Newborough Warren, with the similarly closely packed corsican pines.

Hucka D.:

There is a relationship. (pause) I think you should wait on this one.

bb:

Thank you.

 

Just Chatting w/Hucka July 13, 2008

“So as the title says, Hucka D., we’re just going to chat. About the land, about philosophy, about stuff in general. S-Bum, Blinks, etc.”

Hucka D.:

Sat. night is a good night for review.

bb:

Let’s start w/ philosophy, actually.

Hucka D.:

TILE.

bb:

Yeah.

Hucka D.:

S-Bum has the missing piece.

bb:

Oh? What does that mean? The M?

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

The thing that powers up the streetwalker?

Hucka D.:

Right.

bb:

Hucka D., is it safe to talk about IE?

Hucka D.:

No.

bb:

Then is the story of the Temple of TILE enclosed within the TILE philosophy itself?

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

Is the missing piece both M and N?

Hucka D.:

Yo.

bb:

Ok. What will S-Bum become?

Hucka D.:

A soulmate.

bb:

Yeah, um, Hucka D.

Hucka D.:

Yeah.

bb:

Where are we again?

Hucka D.:

In the Temple of TILE. Through and through.

bb:

So we should talk about that philosophy.

Hucka D.:

Yes, of course.

bb:

Are we collectively near the end of our SL experience?

Hucka D.:

Yo. I mean, no.

bb:

What’s next?

Hucka D.:

Art.

bb:

Will we become even more internal?

Hucka D.:

Yo.

bb:

What, in your opinion Hucka D., is TILE all about?

Hucka D.:

It is not a religion. Nor a game. It is not exactly a philosophy but it is more philosophy than either game or religion at any one time, any one moment for any one “worshipper.” But it is based on a game. And in the wrong hands it could turn into a religion. But it is not. It’s kind of a philosophy, though.

bb:

Rotating colors.

Hucka D.:

It is the division of the pure white light, God if you will, into the 4 colors of red, green, blue, yellow. These are the primary colors.

bb:

What is the Y? Where is it?

Hucka D.:

That is a primary question. The 4th wall is removed in the temple, the yellow wall. In the center, that is. We still have red, green and blue, but yellow is missing. Y. Yellow.

bb:

Are you the missing piece?

Hucka D.:

Why?

bb:

I don’t know, I’m just asking.

Hucka D.:

Y.

bb:

Oh. Will we go to The Jug soon, you and I?

Hucka D.:

We have to.

bb:

Maybe we should just go ahead and go, then.

Hucka D.:

Maybe we should. (pause) See what S-Bum is up to tonight.

(to be continued?)

*****

bb:

Yeah, S-Bum is really starting to think you missed the ball on the Afar deal. She wants access to Baker Blinker’s sewer box.

Hucka D.:

Maybe so.

“You should seriously think about revealing [delete name] and [delete name] Baker Bloch. You and Ms. Blinker together, that is.”

Baker Bloch:

I’m still not sure that’s the direction to go.

Hucka D.:

Let’s review, then. Baker Blinker has a curse upon her. When the curse is lifted she will be revealed as who she really is. Part of the lifting of the curse could involve revealing [delete names]. As yours collectively, I mean. (pause) SID’s 1st Oz is not the only TILE, or Tyle.

Baker Bloch:

I am not so sure about that Hucka. But thank you for not invoking that other name.

Hucka D.:

[Delete name].

Baker Bloch:

Yes. The lemon tree at the center of the temple is obviously connected to Lemon World, and the circle of the rocks seem very similar. If you count the stone colored chairs surrounding the tree, that would be perhaps 11 objects? Anyway I’ll have to count again.

Hucka D.:

Let’s count them now.

Baker Bloch:

Well ok, alright.

(Baker b. logs onto SL as Baker Bloch. He’s already in the temple, on Floor 1. It’s nighttime, Baker Bloch’s favorite time in SL. Soon he is in the central square staring at the tree and the rocks and peering above the tree up to the ever-spinning cube of TILE/Tyle at the top.)

Baker Bloch:

If you count the transporter as well I’m counting 11 objects around the tree, Hucka D. So this must be related to the rock circle where I manifested Lemon World.

Hucka D.:

We manifested it together. Climb the tree.

Baker Bloch:

What? I don’t think it will hold me Hucka.

Hucka D.:

Climb the tree and enter the cube, the block, Mr. Bloch.

Baker Bloch:

Even if I could climb the tree, which I don’t think I can, I’m too big to get into that cube.

Hucka D.:

You are already in the cube. Ascend the tree.

Baker Bloch:

I’m not going to do it.

Hucka D.:

You will be insane within the month if you do not ascend.

Baker Bloch:

Huh? Insane? Maybe you’re the insane one Hucka D.

Hucka D.:

Ok, what harm would it do just to see if you can climb it, like you climbed up the plane loader before. Remember?

Baker Bloch:

I hesitated then as well. You went headfirst. Come to think of it — you go first.

Hucka D.:

I’m already in Baker Bloch. Where do you think I am?

Baker Bloch:

No Earthly idea Hucka D.

Hucka D.:

Guess.

(Baker Bloch did not say the name that came immediately to mind, which was Sirius. But the pieces began to fall into place anyway, and how Baker Blinker must become Alma I, Queen of AI5, in order to save it.)

Hucka D.:

My name is Rupert, and I am a royal ambassador from the 4th planet of the primary Sirius solar system.

*****

baker b. (slightly late on):

*I* see, the world tree has been recreated and the treehouse atop it. Hucka D. has become his primary self. Synchronicities have been shown in SL, perhaps for the first time (?) Kansas City Life.

 

TILE Talk June 23, 2008

“Hucka D., we’re sitting here in the middle of the Temple of TILE. Well, *you’re* sitting here and I’m kind of looking over your shoulder. You wish to talk about TILE and the 2 Oz synchronicities again.”

Hucka D.:

It’s about time.

bb:

Do you wish to ask me some questions?

Hucka D.:

Yes. (rustling noises as he pulls out notes again from his bee pouch). How does TILE start in Dark Side of the Rainbow? How does this relate to The Man and Charles Nelson Blinkerton and his Lemon World? What is.. I guess I’ve read several questions at once. Sorry.

bb:

Ok, let’s start then with Dark Side of the Rainbow.

Hucka D.:

Hidi and Lodi will show up soon. From Pluto.

bb:

Is that right. You mean here? In the Temple of TILE?

Hucka D.:

Could be. Maybe Hidalgo Gallery, maybe B_Hivia, maybe the Victorian house or its grounds. But somewhere.

bb:

Before we get started with the Rainbow Complex, then, let’s talk about Verdy and Verdigris. I don’t think that was ever cleared up in the blog.

Hucka D.:

Verdy is Verdi and also Hidi but also Heidi. She is named for the first toy avatar woman, the Eve to the Adam that is Lodi. She is olive colored, and he is orange. They are both circles, uniters of triangles and squares. They are wholly holy. In the movie they are Adam and Eve reborn out of the Cave of The Alphabet.

bb:

The plan was for you to interview me but I think the plan has changed. So Hucka… what is the Cave of The Alphabet, then? In Jonesborough?

Hucka D.:

It is the cave of all letters in one. TILE. ONE. They emerge from it. High and low united as one, like the Hidalgo Gallery now. We have saved Verdy, who is the same as Hidi now. United with Lodi. Pluto is now understood as the source planet. Pluto is Hades.

bb:

What about the Temple of the Velvet Underground and Lou Reed?

Hucka D.:

We have another temple now, do we not?

bb:

Are Hidi and Lodi the numbers 1 and 0 on that cube. High and low again, then?

Hucka D. (staring at cube):

Could be.

bb:

What is the relationship of the Circle of Letters to the Circle of Numbers?

Hucka D.:

The two should act as one. Reverse and forward. Numbers come first, then letters. Hidi and Lodi are born.

bb:

Are Hidi and Lodi, then, Numbers and Letters respectively?

Hucka D.:

No. They are the two sides of the alphabet united. A-M, and N-Z. Alpha-beta. First Man. The Man. Cube lost and then regained. Block.

bb:

Hucka, you have much knowledge that we, Blinks and Blochs, need. You have been Charles Nelson Blinkerton. You have become interested in Dark Side of the Rainbow. The flower was plucked “out there” from the old house and then you are “here”. This was a shift, like through a prism. The Body was given up but a new body, a Bee, was provided. You were Tiny, Little, but now you are massive and Mammoth through the beehives, this temple and, prior to it, B_Hivia. Bee is tiny, hives are mammoth.

Hucka D.:

I am now the tetractys. Numbers. Ten. Rural shifts to urban [comedy]. Bee Aurthur is contacted. Cub Run is done and over with. Winesap is next. TILE Creek. Hand Spring to Drink Lake. Jonesborough…

bb:

Talk about Jonesborough a bit more, the location of The Cave of The Alphabet.

Hucka D.:

The cave is the mouth that has the White Rock for a tongue. It speaks, or at least hums. Sometimes it even sings if it’s really happy, which is often. It is in a good setting.

bb:

How did T_Bonz know it could sing?

Hucka D.:

He had a map. Stolen from the Mmmmmm’s, who already had this information. The cave is legend to them.

bb:

But it looks like Verdy had knowledge of the cave as well.

Hucka D.:

He knew that T-Bonz would open the mouth of the cave with the singing, which is the same as opening the portal to SL and AI5 to create Verdigris. He melted into the landscape, Verdy did. That’s why it was green.

bb:

It’s not green on the refreshed maps [of AI5], though.

Hucka D.:

He returned. Lodi led him out of the labyrinth that is SL, like Baker Bloch was led out by Baker Blinker. Alma.

bb:

Will Baker Blinker become Alma I?

Hucka D. (not directly answering):

Noz is Baker Bloch. Not Oz but Noz. Like nose. (Hucka points to his own bee nose here).

bb:

Is the Temple of TILE the Big Windy? Or the Big Reedy?

Hucka D. (not directly answering again):

A cave always has a centerpoint. A portal. (Hucka D. stares at the rotating cube again, the center of this particular cave/temple.)

bb:

Is the Temple of TILE then connected to The Cave of The Alphabet at Jonesborough in some direct way?

Hucka D.:

This cave has an especially highlighted center, don’t you think?

bb:

Yes, it is very nice. The culmination of our collective experiences in SL so far. Will there be another beehive to come?

Hucka D.:

Yes. (pause) I want to enjoy this one a while, though.

bb:

I was going to ask something but…

Hucka D. (guessing the question):

Alma I is coming.

“What exactly is TILE Mr. Bloch?”

Baker Bloch:

I’m here for you again, Hucka. TILE is a game/philosophy/religion but which always has to be at least 51% philosophy in order to keep it from being either mostly a game or a religion.

Hucka D.:

Why is it present in the Oz synchronicities?

Baker Bloch:

You mean Dark Side of the Rainbow and SID’s 1st Oz?

Hucka D.:

Yeah.

Baker Bloch:

It just happened that way.

Hucka D.:

I am interested in Tik-tok, the first robot of literature. I wish to become Tik-tok or be closely associated with him/it from now on. In SID’s 1st Oz, according to your and Baker Blinker’s literature concerning this synchronicity, Tik-Tok is described as being the same as a Bee. At the time of the overlap in SID’s 1st Oz, Tik-tok has created a red-green-blue mobius strip like paradox. He has lost groundedness. He has lost yellow. Y. This is what I can give him.

Baker Bloch:

This has something to do with Tronesis, doesn’t it? Your analysis. Is it not going well?

Hucka D.:

It’s going as well as possible without the attachment to Tik-tok, see?

Baker Bloch:

Have you searched for Tik-tok avatars on the SL Exchange Marketplace? Do you want me to help you here?

Hucka D.:

I wish to know more about TILE for now.

Baker Bloch:

Then ask away and I’ll tell you what I know. We’ll bring in Baker Blinker if necessary. I’m here to help, Hucka.

Hucka D.:

Thank you. I have notes (Hucka D. pulls some folded up papers out of his pouch — insert rustling noises). Tik-tok is a tetractys?

Baker Bloch:

He is a summary of 1-2-3-4 in terms of Queen tiles within SID. He is the first whole track of Queen in the synchronicity. He is the first “good” machine of those present in all of these 4 Queen tiles…

Hucka D.:

Excuse me to interrupt, but what is the difference between TILE and tile? I don’t want to get off on a wrong track.

Baker Bloch:

In SID’s 1st Oz?

Hucka D.:

Sure.

Baker Bloch:

In SID’s 1st Oz, a tile is a single cued region, as all tiles are in audiovisual synchronicity. In SL it all begins with a cube, as they say. In audiovisual synchronicity it begins with a *cue*. Clever, eh?

Hucka D.:

What is TILE, then?

Baker Bloch:

TILE is actually unique to SID’s 1st, because this particular synchronicity has 26 total cues, or the same as the number of letters in the English alphabet. Tile, little letters, is a cue attached to a single letter of the alphabet. TILE represents the summary of all tiles in this way, as the alphabet is a summary of all single letters of the alphabet.

Hucka D.:

You said it was in Dark Side of the Rainbow as well, though.

Baker Bloch:

Well it is. That’s where I first discovered the association.

Hucka D.:

How? And what is the difference of the presence of TILE in Dark Side of the Rainbow and SID’s 1st Oz?

Baker Bloch:

In SID’s 1st Oz, all tiles are of a different length [w/ each the same as 1 cued region], and in DSotR they are all the exact same length [and are, in summary, "merely" part of a part of just one whole cued region that is the same as DSotR]. They are 111.

Hucka D.:

111?

Baker Bloch:

Yes.

Hucka D.:

I don’t understand. You said something about the alphabet being divided at the switch from black-and-white to color in Dark Side of the Rainbow. This is MaN… fall of.

Baker Bloch:

That is correct, and that’s where the two parts of TILE divide off from each other. The 1/2 TILE of Kansas, which comes before this transition, remains perfect, as it were, or retains the perfection of the original TILE. The 1/2 TILE of Oz directly after the Kansas scenes becomes singly corrupted away from this perfection, losing one letter in the process to devolve from 13, present in the Kansas region still, to 12. This is the loss of the “N” of MaN. This is where the two synchronicities Dark Side of the Rainbow and SID’s 1st Oz link up, because this loss represents also the loss of Ozma from the Land of Oz. She is the true ruler, its rightful center.

Hucka D.:

What does this have to do with the Oz of this island? — which I want to go see, btw.

Baker Bloch:

I think that has to do with Veach. And Kansas City Life. We know now, more recently…

Hucka D.:

We being you and Baker Blinker.

Baker Bloch:

We know, Hucka, that K.C. Life has something to do with Second Life. It stands for Second Life because Kansas City is the second city of Missouri. It stands for the perfection of Second Life at the beginning, when it was Linden World. The Man stood in the center of the square of Linden City in the center, in turn, of Linden World. When The Man was shifted more toward the corner of the inclusive sim then the fall occurred. And this is where you-as-CNB came into play. Your *Lemon* World was shifted as well because it was inside The Man. You experienced the Fall of Second Life directly. You felt the pain as much as anyone, perhaps.

Hucka D.:

But it wasn’t called Second Life then.

Baker Bloch:

At the end, it became a *cross* of Lemon and Lime for you. Vertical and horizontal. Painful.

Hucka D.:

But now I am healed. Unified again.

Baker Bloch:

It seems so.

Hucka D.:

I’m still not exactly sure what this has to do with the Oz synchronicities. And how they fit in.

Baker Bloch:

Kansas City Life represents perfection, but at a cost. There is a 2 minute hole in the center that is called Centerville. Suspendering of opposites. Reed and Zappa. At the end, the rivals extend an olive branch toward each other. This would be in Veach.

Hucka D.:

Can we go there directly? To give the scene some needed vibrancy?

Baker Bloch:

Sure, Hucka, you can go right now.

Hucka D.:

What has [delete name] got to do with this? Baker Blinker became very upset today when I mentioned that name. She slapped me at first, and then I asked her why she slapped me because I said the name [delete name] and she slapped me again so hard this time that my head was actually knocked off. She apologized over and over, saying she was so sorry, but I was able to retrieve a new head from my inventory and speak to her once more, saying that it was ok and that I would never say that name while with her again. I promised this; crossed my heart. But you do not seem to be so upset to hear this name, Baker Bloch, which pleases me.

Baker Bloch:

I have to edit it out of our post here, though. And you shouldn’t use it a lot. I would agree with Baker Blinker in that it is a dangerous name to throw around.

Hucka D.:

Who is he?

Baker Bloch:

He is the creator of Kansas City Life.
