There's a kickstarter type campaign on for making a play and festival out of Robert Anton Wilson's book Cosmic Trigger.

One of the perks/rewards for donating is a 5 cd box set of a recording of the original illuminatus trilogy play which is apparently only available from now until the crowdfunding is over but it costs £123. There's also a set of 5 exclusive dvds including an interview with Alan Moore about RAW, recordings of previously unheard interviews and talks as well as shirts, trading cards and signed limited edition posters.

These bastards have already milked me of a lot of money but now I've got all the limited edition stuff I was after it's time for me to spread the word to other people who are interested in getting some Wilson memorabilia.

The end result is a 3 day play/conference/festival in London, Brighton and Liverpool, which are all annoyingly pretty far away from me and I have no RAW fans for friends to go with. They're planning to take it to the USA after the UK tour.

Here's the relevent links…

For those of you who haven't read cosmic trigger yet, here's a pdf.
http://www.principiadiscordia.com/downloads/00%20Cosmic%20Trigger%20Vol%20I.pdf

It's a great read and goes into advanced ESP, crowley, UFOs, psychic contact with aliens from Sirius and all sorts of /fringe/ shit.

Pic related are some of many discordian badges that come free with donations over £23.

Example of some of the art on the trading cards. These are limited edition and won't be produced again.

Youtube is of the woman who wrote the play talking about how it came about, the history behind it etc, has a few scenes from the show in it too.

Also might As well make this a general Robert Anton Wilson discussion thread. What do you guys think of him?

I made a thread on /chaos/ about it a little while back, made one here because the funding is over soon (9 days) and I want everyone who is into discordianism/raw's work to get the exclusive material while it's still available… not everyone knows about /chaos/ and well made RAW related collectors items don't really exist outside of this little bubble of creative energy for this brief moment in time.

Managed to get 100 hits to cosmic trigger crowdfunding according to my indiegogo stats, out of those 100 there were only two donations but they added up to ~£150 so not bad but damn did I put a lot of work in and put up with being accused of shilling a lot.

None of us have money here. I don't anyways. I'm just a NEET. I can't even afford to keep myself from starving to death, I'm only alive because of my parents.

That sucks, ya'll need to become occult authors or run workshops or healing practises or something.

Schizomaster race here idiot government think my wizard skills mean I'm disabled so I get looked after by sugar daddy big brother government and only have to degrade myself to mental health workers every so often to keep the money flowing.

Nice. I am in the weird fucking predicament of having rich parents who don't give a shit about me and yet having them means I can't get welfare. So I have to go out on the streets and find people who need help with some random shit and get paid a little change that way. Some people don't even pay me and I'm not going to argue with them but fuck they waste my time.

You should try establishing a name for yourself as a wizard and selling your abilities, teaching people, performing divination, healing, whatever you're learned in.

That's the hardest fucking thing to do though. One slip and you're fucked. Also if my powers are too great I will attract attention and be fucked.

My goals right now are

- read a fuckload
- get to a point where I can materialize shit and teleport around and so on and then I won't need money I'll just go wherever the fuck I want in the world, probably some really remote region, and then use the powers of my mind to create a magical stronghold there and then go abduct some people I like and have them populate my place.

3 days until the funding is over, if you want some of the discordian/magic material be quick about it.

I'll wait for someone to scan it into a PDF I don't have any money.

Can anyone explain to me why RAW is important or is he just another Aleister Crowley tier prankster fooling the silly plebs with his pop magic nonsense?

He helped delineate Leary's 8 circuit model in a way that most people could understand and digest in prometheus rising the 'green pill' guys book, something which Leary failed to do - he always overcomplicated things.

His mixture of skepticism and the occult is quite useful, he's been a doorway for a lot of people into the subject, myself included but he's not a be all and end all guru or anything.

He was a polymath and kept up to date on a lot of different subjects so he's useful to look at the occult in a "modern" context, although a lot of the ideas he used like the left/right brain thing are now out of date but such is science.

He's also partially responsible for discordianism getting so big, mostly thanks to his illuminatus trilogy.

I don't think he ever spread magic as such, more leading people into exploring it themselves. The books he wrote with exercises were more aimed at broadening peoples understanding of their minds and biases rather than traditional magic.

>>13552

It looks like its for them to track the amount of google searches they're getting.
