Behind the Scenes
of UNITY LIFE Mystery School
UNITY LIFE Mystery School is a very living and active artistic space in which much is always being created behind the scenes. As a world of intermedia art — an art genre which incorporates the process of artistic creation as well as the final product, also contextualizing the audience with the work — UNITY LIFE is always projecting what’s being created behind the scenes before and after it’s finished. This way some audience reflections, feedback, support and later reception are integrated, as things are being constantly developed. This particular UNITY LIFE Archive is a mirror of that. It’s a newsletter of sorts which will be always in process, dramatically changing regularly to always remain completely up to date.
Here’s What’s Happening Behind the Scenes Right Now
HOLY WOOD Lyric Interpretation Kick-Off Archive to Accompany Newly Announced Plans
In honour of Marilyn Manson's birthday on January 5th (aka 15), I've announced my plans to come out with a new Iboga addiction recovery themed card set. Click here for the full announcement. There you will find info about the accompanying lyric interpretation archive series I'm planning about Marilyn Manson's iconic (year 2000) masterpiece album, HOLY WOOD. As well, details about an upcoming new shop. The lyric interpretation Archives (essays) will go along with the card set - one for each beautiful zenlike meditation card, of ornamental qualities. The card set is not scheduled to come out until hopefully next year on Manson's next birthday, but I look forward to working on the Archives on a fairly regular basis. At least one of them is scheduled for the near future.
Anti-Pedophilia Archive Aligned with The Satanic Temple and ILF
I’m currently working on an educational and preventative archive against pedophilia, which will align with The Satanic Temple ( thesatanictemple.com ) which I am now an official member of, to empower my message. I’m also planning to align with The Innocent Lives Foundation ( innocentlivesfoundation.org ), an organization promoted by Foo Fighters drummer Ilan Rubin who his mother-in-law is on the board of directors. ILF works with law enforcement to identify anonymous online child predators and bring them to justice. At the same time, I just met with police yesterday to do as the ILF does — I’ve found a way to bring an online child predator and larger rapist to justice and transformed a lost case into one that now has a chance.
An Upcoming Archive : Birthdays As A Suicide-Prevention Cultural Artform
My birthday is coming up on December 28th, and this year, the party has started way early, as many of my friends gave me flowers and gifts to start bringing in the celebration of my life. I’ve been huge on celebrating everyone’s birthday over the years, as a UNITY LIFE theme, to promote the celebration of life as the most important holiday. But also, it’s a suicide-prevention artform. By making sure people know their life seems worth celebrating, we can prevent suicidal thoughts long in advance before they come up — ideally done from childhood stages, but you can’t be too late )) For my birthday, I’m planning to write an archive about this topic, along with a beautiful catalogue of all my many birthday presents this year :)
Ba Adonai’s #MeToo Index with Conversations About Allegation Controversy
At the same time, I’m continuing to dynamically expand on the tightrope walk between being a very vocal, proud and public defender of certain stars against false allegations in the media against them — and myself being a survivor of sexual assault, one who has made public allegations and stands by those statements. I’ve compiled all my public statements of abuse into one index, and provided a gorgeous UNITY LIFE Archive to explore the controversy surrounding the hashtags #MeToo and #BelieveVictims, while providing education on #WhyIDidntReport and others. That archive is a work in progress, as the index of my public claims is very indepth for me to personally polish into something more current & well contextualized.
Revisions to Ba’s Bio Page & A New Asset Bank of Photography for Visual Storytelling
I’ve also organized and revised my bio page on unitylifemysteryschool.art to have more clear sections and provide a huge bank of assets (with many beautiful galleries and mini blogs) to use my visual storytelling on UNITY LIFE. This draws from my photography and blogging throughout Meta which has been going on for years, developing into a deep artform. That’s such a massive endeavour but has started up nicely. The current goal is to drain everything out of my personal instagram @ba.adonai and transplant it all into this asset bank. Then, I’ll be posting favourites wiith links to these photography galleries in my story on @unity.life.mystery.school rather than posting to @ba.adonai with my pretty personal photos.
A New FACET of The 72 FACETS (IN 144) re: Addictions Awareness
As well, I am working on an “addictions awareness” piece for UNITY LIFE, which will be associated with one of the FACETS of The 72 FACETS (IN 144) and made into a multi-media pubic resource. Those who know UNITY LIFE know that as an Ayahuasqera, my main focus has been addiction recovery, especially in context with Iboga traditional psychedelic plant medicine (which Ibogaine is a derivative of). This West African Bwiti medicine has highest success rates for hard drug addiction recovery, far greater than AA, but is less accessible to most. My resulting growing interest in harm reduction and awareness has led to this new resource which will be added to as a yearly observance of National Addictions Awareness Week in Canada.
A New FACET of The 72 FACETS (IN 144) re: Jared / 30STM and Marilyn Manson
Those who enjoyed my recent UNITY LIFE Archive about the movie Tron : Ares as compared with the 30 Seconds To Mars discography (and as tied with Marilyn Manson) will be pleased to know that this MM / 30STM archive has become the base for a big circuit of deeply related archives which will all be continually linked from within it as they come out. It is becoming a super piece that seems destined to be associated with a FACET of The 72 FACETS (IN 144). The latest about the Byzantine cross variation by 30STM has been one of many of these. So that archive will now become a hive of information, with many links to incredible related stories, deep studies / analysis and revelations. With so much going on, that’s on the back burner.
Notice
These are all plans and design concepts for how I imagine things will develop. These are not guaranteed outcomes, or chained to manifesting in the exact way they have been described. Things often evolve spontaneously with art, and I respect that surprises are always a wonderful element as well — something for us all to look forward to if they should occur.
