Apocalypse Wow - Episode 3

Monday 2 November 2020 Klaarkloof is so far off the grid, they forgot there is one. But bru, there are lank waves ... and orbs, Yin and Yang and Om, and ... and ... it's Episode 3 of Apocalypse Wow! By ND Mazin

APOCALYPSE WOW! Chapter 3: The Ego Has Landed!

... and the Zodiac and Tarot ... and Deep Ecology, Synchronicity and Karma ... and Astrology, Veganism, Tibetan Buddhism and Zen ... and free love for Kataza and his new troop ... and kiff cosmic trips through fynbossian floralities ... but no (braai) grids, no logframes, no optimal hypercubes, no cellphone reception, no internet connection, and for freaky frackiness, not one whiff of fossil fuel!

No power, if you want to call it that, but enough green energy, wind energy, solar energy, tidal energy, bodily and spiritual energy to drive an entire human, non-human, posthuman and neohuman living system, without the aid of fire. A long time ago, when ever it was that Klaarkloof came to be, there was a decision made – a promise, a pact – that fire, and all forms of energy and power that derive from it, would never be allowed to happen here.

Also, there was to be no coercion of any kind, of animal, insect, plant or human being, in which any person or thing would ever be compelled to do anything they didn’t feel like doing. Since Klaarkloof is not on any map, there was no chance, it was believed, that any person who relied on maps would ever find it. So what the heck is the celebrated cybernetic technology wizard and renowned robotics pioneer, Dr Sigmund Froyd, a regular Binary Beezlebub, doing here? And how does he relate, as he evidently does, to Klaarkloof’s self-appointed mystical guru, Moses Avid of The Mystic Moment?

These are perplexing questions to which answers will be sought -- and hopefully found -- during this and subsequent episodes of Apocalypse Wow!
