Passing of PoP (version 2.5.2)

I of the tigger

I know this vid was already posted, but in Light of Micheal Jackson's untimely (timely?) death today, and recent revelations made here concerning the synchnificance of subway trains and BAD214, the experience of watching this was just that much more powerful...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACPsfcsg4ZE

EDIT: As my awareness of the pattern has developed, I have really tried to steer clear of numerology -as one of this blog's researchers stated, you can attach numerical meaning to anything- but on some occasions it's pretty hard to deny. The 7 minute length of the above video was winkin at me heavy as I posted this, I just didn't know it yet.

"'Bad' was a 1987 hit recording by Michael Jackson. The song was the second of five (2 & 5) Billboard Hot 100 number-one hit singles from the album Bad, and was his seventh number-one single overall.[1]"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_(Michael_Jackson_song)

"Bad" was released as a single on September 7th, 1987 (7th day of the 9th month). The album Bad was MJ's 7th studio album. Matter of fact, before he died, Micheal's as yet unreleased album was being recorded under the cryptic working title "7even" (with the number 7 representing an S rather than the V like the film Se7en). Just gettin warmed up...

The artwork might be fake, and the album title might've changed, but that seems irrelevant now. A quick google search combining Micheal's name and the number "7" didn't return much, but the first result under the news was a youtube link for "Scream", his duet with Janet Jackson. Once again, I was called by the Voice of the pattern, screaming at the top of it's lungs for my attention.

Y so many guitars? and where is that ramp going?

"Scream" still holds the title for most expensive video ever made, costing $7 million. In the video, MJ is seen paddle-balling in a shirt with a big "7" on the front.

The shirt is most likely a reference to the fact the Jackson was the seventh of nine children (7 of 9[?]), but knowing Mike, who knows. Both Bad and Thriller produced seven number-one singles ("Thriller" was the 7th), and Thriller (9 tracks, 7 singles) was re-released as Thriller 25.

Outside of the fact that 2+5=7, 25 is significant as the date of Jackson's death (Juno 25), a date he shares with Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes (died April 25th), Aaliyah (died August 25th) and the Voice himself, James Brown (died December 25th). On March 25th, 1983, Micheal Jackson became a household name worldwide during his performance at Motown 25, in which he unveiled his now-infamous moonwalk. That August, Micheal turned 25 (born 1958 [1+9+5+8=23]). The following year, Micheal swept the Grammy Awards with 7 wins for Thriller. Well, eight, if you count the award he won for the song he contributed to the soundtrack for E.T.-The Extra Terrestrial entitled "Someone in the Dark" (E = 5, T = 20 [whatup Will]).

a C of light


seven lights; again, looking too hard perhaps?

Whew.

My last post on The Voice, and recent viewing of the film Notorious (analysis forthcoming), has been pushing me towards the musical aspect of the Voice; the music of Soul, of SpiriT. The Negotiator is but one aspect of the greater power of 3rd ear gnosis and it's visible[!] effects on the strange times in which we Now Flow.

"Are you a good guy trying to be bad,
or a bad guy trying to be good?"

-Faith Evans, asked to Christopher "B.I.G." Wallace in Notorious



We are awakening, C'ing the I, speaking truth to the Voice, reflecting the active evolving spiriT pattern...

Jim:

I was just reading an article about the death of the Moonwalker when I noticed this phrase

and some peculiar numbers in it.

"An unidentified man called a 911 emergency phone line from the mansion at 12:21 p.m. local time, saying Jackson was unconscious and not breathing"

911 and 1221 all in one sentence. 1221 of course reads as ABBA and points us to the Heavenly Father, among other things, and 911 points us the opening of emergency starG8 door in 2001.

Richard: I recall watching a documentary about Michael Jackson and his infatuation with plastic surgery. The researcher stated that MJ became obsessed with the singer Diana Ross and wanted to mirror her image by reducing his own nose. Diana Ross, and therefore MJ, both entrain with the color Blue:

Toure mentions in his update that 25 and 7 are key numbers in the late singers life.

In the comic book 52 (which is priced $2.50) we see the Cross in the negative space between the two numbers in the title:

Notice above that the Cross is also found in the shape of the Sword.

Toure said: Matter of fact, before he died, Michael's as yet unreleased album was being recorded under the cryptic working title "7even" (with the number 7 representing an S rather than the V like the film Se7en).

The Sword/Cross in the image above pierces the S/7 on the red Superman cape.

In the first Transformers movie (starring Shi(v)a LeBeouf) we find John Turturro (the Purple Jesus) wearing the 'S7' on his Superman T-Shirt:

Combine the 52 cover with this Transformers image and we see that the Sword/Cross/25 points towards the Heart of the Purple Jesus. Michael Jacksons death has helped open the Hearts of millions of people and it'll be interesting to see how these ripples of Love affect future events. I feel a Summer of Love coming on...

Metro Metro

In light of the recent tragedies that struck this level of reality recently, I see some very strange amplifications of certain themes discussed here, and at the Blob. I'll start with a quote that ToMMy from Kozmikon brought to my attention...

"I look at new movie posters the same way as new crop circles. What themes and patterns are coming through via Being regardless of origin."~Jake Kotze, said on Twitter~

I find that quote quite though provoking. I also find it gives us a bit of closure in regards to what we do.

Yesterday there was that horrific train wreck in Washington. I started typing about it but nothing was coming together... So I trashed what I had started. The events of today, and the dreams I had while napping today pointed me to take a swing at it again...

So I respectfully approach the facts and also pay respect to the lives lost in these 'accidents'.

D.C. Train Wreck Investigation Focusing on Possible Computer Malfunction

"The June 22 accident on the Metro’s Red Line killed nine people and injured at least 70 commuters. A fast-moving train failed to stop and rear-ended another train, which was stopped on the same tracks waiting for a third train to move out of the way. It was the deadliest wreck in the 30-year history of the area’s Metro system."

That's the most recent information offered as I post this. The thing I noticed first was all the recent talk about the subway here, and abroad. Toure's first post highlighted this as well.

The second thing I noticed(usually) was the the letters and numbers involved in this tragic fractal. Here's some quotes and headlines...

"When Metro Train 112 slammed into Train 214 on Monday, nine families, as diverse as this city, lost loved ones."

Investigators look at 'anomalies' in track circuit

"Nine people were killed Monday when a train plowed into a train that was stopped. It was the deadliest accident in the 33-year history of the Metro."

"Red Line service will continue to be impacted on Wednesday, June 24, as a result of a fatal collision on the Red Line on Monday, June 22, between the Fort Totten and Takoma Metrorail stations."

Train wreck
- June 22 2009 (22=11:11)
- Metro train service- One M112 train smashes into another M214(bad) train.
- Deadliest accident in the 33-year history of the Metro.
- ToTTen and Takoma is our 'T' resonator. I also though about the two 'M's colliding. The driver, Jeanice McMillan, 42, of Springfield, Va., was killed in the accident.
- DC Metro: Wed Red Line Service

I know this is a long stretch but train tracks are an '11'. Train tracks even have the elusive third pillar called the third rail. This thinking brings to mind the Bolt etc.

I wrote this post because of Toures post. To quote the first Paragraph from The voice of reason.

"...his best friend's murder. The theme of red is pretty heavy-handed here..."

I mean COME ON! Look at this...

Note the highlighted ET Then he mentions the infamous John TraBolta.

Think of the just mentioned third rail and Trabolta's interactions with the lightning bolt and C-train in Pelham 123(BAD). I say C-Train cause that is the light rail transit (LRT) system in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Reading further on the post The voice of Reason Toure mentions." Travolta's character in the movie is named Gabriel Shear, most likely named for the angel Gabriel, known as both the Angel of Death and the Messenger, or the Voice of God."

Angel of Death - AOD - DOA - A * D - Anno Domini - After Death...

" This, for me, confirms the previous connection I made between Samuel L. and Samael. In Pulp Fiction, Sam Jackson shouts "I AM the Lord" (speaking as the voice of God) before pulling the trigger (as the angel of death)..." Followed by brain goosebumps. Maybe I drank to many slurpies today.



Then this morning...

"Ed McMahon, who died Tuesday morning in a Los Angeles hospital, was a carnival barker, game-show host and TV pitchman for Budweiser beer and American Family Publishers' Sweepstakes, but he will always be best remembered as Johnny Carson's sidekick for 30 years on NBC."

The Voice of Reason (3rd Cup [overFLoWing])

toure enters the synch hole...

In 1998's The Negotiator, we find Samuel L. Jackson (Samael?) playing a hostage negotiator in Chicago who becomes his opposite as he is forced to to take hostages himself in order to clear his name after his best friend's murder. The theme of red is pretty heavy-handed here; Jackson and Spacey are seeing red on the cover, Jackson's character has red hair in the film, and in the climax scene, he stands on the edge of a blown-out building face with red sniper dots spotting his torso.

Not sure I C the reason for all the red, but this role started a brain splinter pattern showing the black star as the Negotiator/Voice of Reason. In 1997's Metro, Eddie Murphy plays a hostage negotiator who ends up on the wrong side of the law when he tries to avenge his best friend's murder by an escaped jewel thief.

The first thing I notice in this poster is the over-sized, over-emphasized handgun barrel. Curious. The title Metro brings to mind Jake's recent reference to the Matrix Subway scene... what is it with the subway?

Sam Jackson has been pretty well established 'round these parts as a blackstar resonator, but when I found the blatant blue-gold wink (pictured above) from his Pulp Fiction scene with John Travolta (and the Wolf), I had to take another look at his character imprint. In Pulp, Jackson plays the Voice of Reason and the Negotiator in the film's last scene where he talks down Tim Roth dressed in blue. He even compares himself to David Carradine's grasshopper...

Speaking of Blue & Gold Negotiation;




Eye point, U shoot

In John Q, Denzel Washington imitates Jackson's imprint when he is forced to take hostages of his own, also in Chicago. I may have to see this film now that it has entered the pattern, but I was pretty sure it sucked. Again, the poster's designers made sure to emphasize the gun.

The same could be said for Bruce Willis' Hostage (I'm always at odds with sitting through a movie that I feel might be terrible for the pattern relevance...). In this poster, the inclusion of the handgun almost seems like a photoshopped afterthought. I know the handgun is a phallic symbol, but is there a connection to the pattern of hostage negotiation?

Speaking of Bruce Willis...

In a movie that most definitely did not suck The Siege, Denzel plays an FBI agent who opens the film as a hostage Negotiator when terrorists threaten to blow up a bus. The hijackers test the FBI response times by faking a hostage situation using blue paint bombs instead of live explosives. Willis' inclusion in the pattern spotlights the alternative to negotiation in hostage situations (there will be no negotiation, i.e. kill 'em all) via roles in Die Hard, The Fifth Element and The Siege. "The United States Government does not negotiate with terrorists." How many action movies have drilled that phrase into our heads?

In The Siege, Denzel plays the lone Voice of Reason in the film's pivotal torture scene. Denzel's point about the U.S. military becoming no better than terrorists [by torturing them] resonates with the theme of role-reversal (good guy becomes bad guy and vice versa) in The Negotiator, John Q, Metro and Pulp Fiction. Denzel finds himself on the wrong side of the law -again- when he decides to act on his convictions in order to stop Bruce Willis from terrorizing Muslim extremists.

Up is down, right is wrong, legal is immoral, criminal is righteous...

I could probably write an entire post just on The Siege, but for the purposes of this pattern, it led me straight to Spike Lee's Inside Man (great film), in which Denzel again must negotiate with a "terrorist" alongside the underrated Chiwetel Ejiofor (look this guy up), who gets to be in 2012 with synch-star John Cusack. Washington does more good-bad switching in this film as he (Spoiler Alert!) actually becomes a jewel thief himself by the film's end.

blue n gold tie #1...


blue n gold tie #2... am i lookin too hard?

Denzel's imprint as the negotiator came full circle with this year's Pelham 123, which had me wondering about Travolta and why he needed to be squeezed into yet another bad guy role that is anything but fitting. What is the significance of the hijacker/terrorist role Travolta's been playing lately and why must he oppose the Voice of Reason?

I got the gun, I make the rules

I'd bet money that Pelham 123 will feature strong themes of good guy/bad guy reversals and that Denzel's Voice of Reason will put him in a place of self-sacrifice as the Negotiator. "Let the hostages go; take me instead..."

toure synch-edit:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_office_number-one_films_of_2001_(USA)

In 2001, the Wachowski Brothers followed up the most groundbreaking synchtastic super film of the decade with a lackluster action flick called Swordfish. The film opened at #1 on June 10th as the 23rd number-1 of the year (23rd #1, 123, duh, right?). The film holds a special place in my heart as the movie that confirmed [for me] that the Wachowski Brothers did not write The Matrix as claimed.

it's not a sync, it's just a damn coffee cup

In the film's action-packed opening, Don Cheadle, as the black hostage Negotiator, tries unsuccessfully to talk down John Travolta. Travolta's character in the movie is named Gabriel Shear, most likely named for the angel Gabriel, known as both the Angel of Death and the Messenger, or the Voice of God. This, for me, confirms the previous connection I made between Samuel L. and Samael. In Pulp Fiction, Sam Jackson shouts "I AM the Lord" (speaking as the voice of God) before pulling the trigger (as the angel of death)...

But back to Don Cheadle;

Don's recent film Traitor -which I have to watch again- highlights the good guy/bad guy reversals in this pattern, especially Denzel Washington's role in The Siege. Denzel becomes a literal traitor when he -a government agent- takes on Bruce Willis and the Marines. The pendulum swings back the other way for Cheadle in Devil In a Blue Dress where he plays a bad guy who goes good alongside Mr. Washington.

Denzel Negotiates with the Angel of Death

In Devil In A Blue Dress, Cheadle plays a murder-happy gangster who decides to do a [well-paid] good deed and help his old friend Easy Rollins(ER, Re?), played by Denzel. All this good-bad switching has my head spinning. I'm not sure what to make of the color associations, but I think there is a pattern of transition, flux... good to bad to good ad infintum. Samael Jackson's coffee cup may tag him as the golden boy (good being bad) but after washing the blood off and meeting the wolf, he turns blue (bad being good? wtf?). I have no idea what's going on...

Whatever the meaning, Jim's incredible 214=BAD connection from Juno Temple seems to fit quite perfectly;

"He's a big bad wolf in your neighborhood.
Not bad meaning bad but bad meaning good."

-Run DMC

Jake:

Was going over the images in Toure's wicked post again when I noticed the Koffee Kup I am drinking from is 'N Sync with the Pulp Fiction shot of our Stars with Blue and Yellow Black Pool Mugs.
Spock on the left with Blue and KirK on the right in yellow. A Galactic swirl, Cosmic Heart of MOM sync winks hello betwixt the Star travelers...

I love this image from "Pulp Fiction", are they staring (resonates Starring (as in "Pulp Fiction" Starring Travolta and Jackson) while a Star Ring is the Zodiac or Galaxy) at Keitel (Wolf) or Tarantino (Tarantula crossed with Torino (Bull))? Will verify.

Richard: Like Toure I've also been noticing the Gun creeping into my own patterns. Here's one I looked at back in KING HAM 23 where we see Denzel Washington, the Gun, and 'the Blue One' all coming together as the Bullet parts the Red C:

Also notice above that the TT is highlighted via the Ice T and the T in the title which is being hit by the Bullet.

In The Air I Breathe poster we see that the Gun/Bullet/Butterfly is somehow connected to this Gold/Blue REbirth:

Jake takes a closer look at the Butterfly in his excellent Blue Worm post.

I've recently been revisiting The Invisibles comic series thanks to a nudge from Jake and while reading the very last issue I noticed that the Gun was marked by the Red Spot while surrounded by the ONE/NEO/EON/MON/NOW. Could this be a reference to the Gundalini Rising?

This then reminded me of the poster for Crank where we find a connection to the Blood (via the highlighted veins in the title) the Hand (or 'DNA-H' depending on which way round you want to look at it) and the Gun:

Maybe things are about to be Cranked up a notch as we're each 'fired' (on a genetic level?) through the BaRReLL of the H-and Gun.
