◊🌱 As I strive to create the new website for UNITY LIFE Mystery School, I realize that during the first stages of this creation, it is not yet represented with the full spectrum of my affiliations with the mainstream entertainment media — something that is core to my art. By affiliations, I mean the media figures (stars) and groups of them whom I would gladly discuss in depth when I can, in my ongoing archives, publications, and videos as part of the Mystery School contemplative arts.

The UNITY LIFE Branch ◊ A Unified Field of Co-Supportive Media Arts


◊💎 Since the very beginning of my creation of the artumentary or visionary disquisition and the larger body of work associated with NIRVANA #KurtCobainIsAlive ◊ THE 72 RADIANT DIAMOND FACETS OF THE 27 CLUB (IN 144) in 2018, I have intuited and discovered that bands, media groups, movies, television projects, and more do not work independently as they seem to on the surface — but within unified branches of collective and co-creative bodies.

◊📺 In my view, television and movies (and many more media categories) are not a separate creative field from the band world, even though the two are distinctive and operate differently. These larger bodies of artist communities — what I call branches — specialize in similar themes, referencing each other directly or indirectly in ways that enhance and support each other’s work as it reaches the audience within larger schools of thought.

◊🎯 It would theoretically be possible to achieve this without direct communication between artists, by simply studying each other’s art along with the related layers of understanding in popular culture. Yet I see that their networking is incredibly strategic to this shared creative field.

◊🪶 Beyond theory, I have personally experienced how this unified field operates in direct spiritual initiation. My own experience of being initiated by the band NIRVANA through the traditional psychedelic plant medicine of Ayahuasca empowered me to know myself as spiritual family with not only the band, but their entire branch. In fact, my work with UNITY LIFE Mystery School (art-ucation) is literally a part of that lineage, as you will understand throughout this archive.

◊🌈 The expansive size of this branch is far more than I can possibly take in, and so I’ve enjoyed the artful process of refining my consumption patterns — strategically designed to mirror my path with UNITY LIFE so that all my recreational time aligns with my creative and spiritual pursuits.

Defining Our Branch ◊ Sociological Categories of Mass Media Involvement


◊🔍 Before exploring the contemplative meaning of the UNITY LIFE Branch, it helps to situate it within established sociological frameworks. Sociologically speaking, there is a way of grouping the mass media into categories that represent the priority of their functions, and I find that useful as a way to explain the UNITY LIFE Branch.

◊📊 Below, I’ve listed these categories with ✅’s and ❌’s to represent which categories we specialize in and which are not our main priority. I’ve added 🤝 (handshake) symbols along with descriptive emojis and notes to explain the style of collaboration—for example, a rock star performing at a sporting event. 💛 indicates wholehearted collaboration; 💔 represents reluctant or obligatory collaborations, often for promotional need.


Sidebar ◊ FACET 6 & 78

of the NIRVANA Kurt Cobain Is Alive Series

◊💎 This archive represents the beginnings of a larger body of work for the art-umentary series NIRVANA Kurt Cobain Is Alive ◊ THE 72 RADIANT FACETS OF THE 27 CLUB (IN 144) found at 27(72). That ongoing series is associated with the 72 FACETS (IN 144), which include 144 unique glyphs with 72 unique titles. In ongoing releases following from FACET 1(73), which is the core of the art-umentary about NIRVANA and Kurt Cobain, I am slowly building a series of zines (aka journals) with supportive information which enhances the first FACET.

◊🌈 Each work is associated with one of The 72 FACETS (IN 144). This one is FACET 6 & 78 ◊ FAMILY. The diamond shaped glyphs for this FACET are found above.

◊🔑 Originally, this series was planned in video format, but I have decided to instead release them as zines — mini journals with a collection of archives each, as well as visual art and even comics and children’s activities along with them — and even sometimes card sets or other tools that work as a companion. Then, the videos will be much shorter, designed to introduce each publication. This FACET is currently planned to feature 2 archives - this one about the UNITY LIFE branch, and another about the 7 main sectors or power institutions in our society.

◊🂡🃏 As part of FACET 6 & 78, I have been developing a card set which explores dynamics of the UNITY LIFE branch in how it interacts with other branches of the mass media, and the other 6 power institutions.

A Comprehensive List of the UNITY LIFE Branch? Impossible


◊🌀 Previously, UNITY LIFE offered a listing of all discovered artists that are part of this branch, but maintaining it has proven impossible. It was once suggested that my Instagram follow list could reflect it, but this too became difficult to manage strictly according to our group. I’ve since learned to value complex relationship-building strategies in following, rather than using my list purely as a teacherly artifice.

A Defining Characteristic of the Mass Media ◊ One-Way Communication


◊📡 In explaining how to recognize the UNITY LIFE Branch, I’d like to begin by defining what makes the Mass Media sector unique (including all our branches).

◊🏢 Perhaps the closest relative of our institution is the corporate sector, because technically products and services fall under the category of art — or at least inspired design — and we are indeed artists. The key distinction is this : while creators of products are geniuses who design to appease the buyer, the primary function of the mass media is not to cater. This is a common misconception that deserves clarification.

◊🗣️ The priority of mass media is always to communicate information as a one-way transmission—from the media to the masses. Fandom culture is part of the media itself, but public opinion plays no role in determining what will be broadcast. For example, Jared Leto often asks fans to request songs from the audience, or even in complex tallying, at his concerts, then humorously never plays a single one after al that — a perfect illustration of the mass media mindset.

◊📰 Consider the news : like it or not, it simply is what it is. There is no voting on what the news will be — not with money, ratings, or opinion — at least in true journalism. When journalism fails by designing coverage based on clout instead of integrity, it may even face lawsuits. The media maintains coherence through these bottom-line standards.

◊🔥 Yet in the band world, where fan engagement operates on a much larger scale than in film or television, this is far more difficult for people to grasp. The culture has become so corporately identified with consumerism that everyone assumes they are being democratically catered to. Yet these dynamics are not the true engine that perpetuates the existence of the media — and never have been.

◊👁 Like it or hate it, the media succeeds the moment you have seen it — regardless of whether you paid a dime. Money (buying, streaming, subscribing) certainly fuels the industry, yet the media’s strategies for financial success are so indirect in relation to “point of purchase” that they redefine the sector entirely, making it distinct from corporate, political, or democratic models. This is why so much of the mass media is freely accessible.

◊💫 It is for this reason that controversial artists such as Marilyn Manson and unapologetically punk, countercultural bands like NIRVANA have been so successful in reaching millions. The media simply feeds on attention itself, regardless of whether that attention is positive or negative. The old saying “There is no such thing as bad press” remains one of the few pure truths of mass media.

Defining Characteristics of the UNITY LIFE Branch ◊ A Contemplative Study


◊🧩 Now, let’s look more specifically at the defining characteristics of our branch within the media. The best way for a beginner to analyze our themes is to start with the information I’ve provided above. Take the list of categories, consider the media groups already featured on UNITY LIFE, and notice how the green-checked categories form a distinct constellation of themes.

◊💫 What kinds of themes best arise from this combination — mainstream entertainment, music/audio, educational / informational, interactive / gaming, live performance arts, art / gallery, high fashion / haute couture, and print media? Notice also what we don’t prioritize : children’s entertainment, adult XXX, sports, news, religion, politics, social media, and low-cost fashion. This breakdown mirrors the patterns of UNITY LIFE and of bands like NIRVANA.

◊🌌 Each person will define an artistic theme in the media in their own very creative and idiosycnratic way within their mind as they enjoy the arts. Recognizing themes is very artistic — an inner dimension — somewhat disconnected from language or a little on the subconscious side. This contemplation is worth carrying with you over time. Slowly, as you think about it more, it will become natural to recognize other artists or groups of artists which I haven’t mentioned on UNITY LIFE, that you can tell are also a part of the branch.

◊🌿 Continuing this search for universally interconnected meaning empowers your choices as a consumer of art. Deepening your consumption patterns into co-enhancing artists allows you to appreciate much greater richness from each work. It becomes as if your fandom of one film, series, or band was a workshop preparing you for the next — cultivating you as a listener and and supporting your contemplative depth.

Examples of the UNITY LIFE Branch ◊ The Mysteries of Ayahuasca


◊🌺 Part of why I am writing this archive is because I know that as someone who has been doing this exact study of the branch’s themes for years, some have become extremely curious at this stage about which stars will be featured in the future at UNITY LIFE Mystery School.

◊🖤💐 Also, because I have boldly taken a stand by defending certain stars of false allegations, something which creates major interrogation into my motives for investing into that challenging direction in my work, I also see need in that way to explain how and why I have centred on these artists so far, in such a way that reveals the mysteries of the future.

◊🕊️ Right now, because a previous collection of my public speaking, musings, collections, concert documentation and dreams about the branch have been hidden from public view and set to be re-created eventually in new formats, I have a ridiculously long and very well thought out list of stars that I’d love to include when possible. So, the decision of who to feature initially during the early foundations of the creation of the new UNITY LIFE website and instagram has had to be curated with incredible designer integrity.

◊🧬🕊 That’s why I’m honoured that I received visionary support in my Ayahuasca visions, with incredible guidance on who to include first. These curatorial decisions arose not through marketing or preference but through the divine intelligence of Ayahuasca itself.

◊💎 As you will find out in my masterpiece and the core of my work NIRVANA Kurt Cobain Is Alive ◊ THE 72 RADIANT DIAMOND FACETS OF THE 27 CLUB (IN 144), UNITY LIFE is largerly themed around my background as an Ayahuasqera master healer in the traditions of the Shipibo-Conibo medicine practices of Peru. That’s why it’s so fitting then, that my choices of artists in this series would be based on the advice of these majestic plant teachers.

◊🌈 This guidance was absolutely awe-inspiringly visionary, potent, rich with intelligent lore, and came through a long series of ceremonies. My curation so far has been a very special secret code from Ayahuasca, lovingly created by the medicine to ensure my best interest in life, on so many levels.

Which Artists Was I Guided by Ayahuasca to Discuss in UNITY LIFE Mystery School?


◊💎 To date, the artists (along with their respective bands) that have been featured in this group as the medicine advised include NIRVANA, Marilyn Manson, Dita Von Teese, Jared Leto, Tim Skold, Deadly Apples, Yoko Ono (and John Lennon), Alice Cooper and Grim Jones. However, there will be more of this group coming up. Others that will be prioritized within the more immediate future include more special features about Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselić of NIRVANA, Dave Grohl of NIRVANA and Foo Fighters, Courtney Love of HoLE, and hopefully Trent Reznor of NIN.

◊✨ In Trent’s particular case, issues have been most fascinatingly complicated, and some things are in the way to prevent me from featuring him, although it is clearly destined according to Ayahuasca — so I’m sure it will work out.

◊💐 Also, it’s quite likely that his wife Mariqueen Maandig Reznor will be featured too, which also represents their band together, How To Destroy Angels and new collaborations within NIN. As you can gather in this case about Mariqueen, there are some ways that other stars could be added to this group according to the teachings provided by Ayahuasca, even after the teachings. That said, I imagine it is somewhat unlikely. Very soon, you’ll see it happen on UNITY LIFE.

Conclusion


◊🌞 The UNITY LIFE Branch invites us to see mass media as a living ecosystem of interconnected artistry—where music, film, fashion, and spirit evolve together as a unified field of creative intelligence.

◊🔑 By studying these patterns with awareness, we move beyond passive consumption into contemplative participation, recognizing that each work of art we love is part of a larger conversation shaping our consciousness. In this way, the act of witnessing media becomes a form of Mystery School practice, guiding us toward deeper understanding of ourselves within the collective imagination.
