How Psionics Against Censorship Developed
I had been experimenting with using psionics to do mass mind control through the 1980s, with some success, mostly seeing if I could influence mass behavior and such. And then something happened that got me mad.
In 1988, a young artist at the School of the Art Institute in Chicago did a satirical painting of the dead Mayor Harold Washington in his bra and silk panties. Well, the scum of the earth--various alderfilth, got all bent about it and there was a major broohaha which lead as such things always to do to tons of free PR for the painting (and ultimately a large judgment against the City of the Chicago and the alderscum for the artist). Well, if I had been that artist, I would have issued it as a poster and sold it all over the suburbs, but as I was not, I decided to see if I could do something else with psionics.
As I said, the picture was all over the press, so I cut a copy out of the newspaper, set up my radionic box and helmet to broadcast to the entire Chicago area, and then at three in the morning for a number of nights running, I put the picture in my teleflasher, put on the helmet and sent that image to the dreams of everyone in the area. It was great fun. (And it was even more fun years later when I learned that Weird Harold was not only a drag queen in real life but a well known drag queen in the Chicago gay community.)
Anyway, sort of forgot about that little project until 1999 when a high school got shot up and there was another broohaha and many calls for censorship of video games. Well, that one got my goat. I decided that I would show the politicians with their lace panties in a know over that just how little power they had. And out of that came the Watchtower Project, which consisted of people all over the world wired into psionic transmitters while playing first-person shooters.
Oh that worked wonderfully! Maybe a bit too wonderfully...
But when you do something to overcome censorship, it is like breaking windows. You just can't seem to stop.
So the next step was the Cthulhu Project, using psionics and horror films to send dreams of madness to the world.
And out of all that, and the concept of using psionics to impose art on people who might not otherwise appreciate it, which is the essence of the Colonel Condor operation, has come the Psionics Against Censorship project.
