THE FIRST CYBORG IS A RAT

Well the mad scientists are at it again, busily at work in their alchemical laboratories concocting ever more bizarre experiments and creations. Check this out:

Scientists create cyborg rat with artificial cerebellum

Yup. You read that correctly: they've now installed a computer chip into a rat with a damaged brain that is capable of receiving information directly from the rat's nerves, and then sending its own signals directly into its brain. In short, we've now got public record of the proof-0f-concept experiment that so many transhumanists are talking about: the potential to enhance consciousness via direct interfaces of computer technology with the brain.

Note also what the experiment also portends:"The artificial cerebellum allowed the scientists to condition a brain-damaged rat to blink whenever it heard a tone". In other words, Dr. Jose Delgado's psychic conditioning of the mind through direct electrical stimulation is coming home to roost, and with a vengeance. What is a simple Pavlovian response now could, with enough experimentation, with technological advances and surgical advances, become a powerful new tool of direct mind manipulation, and with it, social engineering.

There is another danger lurking around the corner with this experiment, and it is implied in the potential implications: what is now being done on the lowly rat will tomorrow be done on higher animals -cats,dogs, monkeys - and finally, and inevitably, man. But of course, most readers here are - like myself - probably of the opinion that what we know publicly very likely doesn't even come close to what is being done covertly and in black projects around the world. It gives one pause, great pause, to consider the implications of this technology, and the fact that so many people simply disappear - men, women, children, old and young - all over the world, and are never heard from again. I have nothing more than the dark suspicion that some of these poor victims may be the fodder for some very dark experimentation.

    Greetings,

    You want to closely read this 102 page document from the Mind Justice website on the topic of the 2006 Government Mind Control Debate which thoroughly examines the thesis of Jonathan Moreno’s Mind Wars: Brain Research and National Defense:

    Have any of you watched a great little science fiction B movie from 1955 by the name of, “Creature with the Atom Brain”
    The script was written by the brilliant Curt Siodmak who also wrote, “Donavon’s Brain”

    I mention it because it fits in with the rat cyborg story, only in this case… well, here is a brief description from IMDb

    “An ex-Nazi mad scientist uses radio-controlled atomic-powered zombies in his quest to help an exiled American gangster return to power.”

    You can rent it from Netflix the last time I checked.

    I remember in psychology class how the Professor was bragging about some “Behaviorist Philosophy.” At the time I was not such a pain in the ass as I am today.

    I would/should have asked the question – Can a Behavior Modifier alter the behavior of a rat to where the rat doesn’t not NIBBLE anymore? Most undoubtably the Professor would probably say YES!

    Can you imagine a rat that does not nibble anymore? It would have one hell-of-dental problem and I believe it would be one heck of a NEUROTIC RAT.

    Changing one’s TRUE-NATURE is not a good idea?

    Reminds me again of the Boffin being interviewed by phone on the BBC Five Live Drivetime(for those lost in traffic jams) Show several months ago.
    He and his team were working on arresting the aging process on lab creatures of course, and he said live on the air even, that they had not only stopped the process, but learnt how to reverse it! They were higly surprised and excited by their progess, as you can imagine…though he did say that of course, this hadn’t been tried on human subjects yet.

    ummm

    There’s a show on the Science Channel called “Dark Matters.”
    The music and presentation is creepy and puts me off,
    but it is about True past experiments and strolls through
    the ‘dark’ science and screwballs that ‘play’ with this stuff.

    I stealed myself to watch when it began with a 20 minute
    segment on the so-called Philadelphia Experiment,
    which was actually code-named “Project Rainbow;”
    which I surmised was because of the colors of the
    intertwining EM fields it shot out.

    I know more about this than I would prefer, but I watched to
    see if indeed it was the truth they were going over on the
    show. The other three segments were aso true, but
    nothing I wasn’t already familiar with, so I don’t think I’ll see it again.

    Like I said, the music and general presentation is rather eerie
    and puts me off, but I thought I’d put it up in case someone might
    be interested as it does from the one I watched, seem to be
    all too true !!!!!

    PEOPLE JUST DISAPPEAR reminds me of the transit nature of visitors in Berkley, California or in California in general during the hippy-days. HERE TODAY/GONE TOMORROW! It does make you wonder? Especially after reading some of Ann Rule’s true crime stories about serial killers. What Farrell is suggesting here is much worst!

    ( I got a picadillie — if a serial killer kills seven or eight people he’s called a mass-murderer but if I am in Langley, Vi. in an Office somewhere operating a Drone that has just dropped a bomb and killed 600 people I am not a mass murderer? Something wrong with this picture?)

    Back to the Article:

    On the way to California coming from the East on a Greyhound bus it was all parties and celebrationg (this was before they clamped down). On the Buses leaving California heading East it was all gripes and swearing they’ll never come back again.

    One more thing:

    I’m thinking of the principle character in the movie “CLOCKWRK ORANGE” or was that a bio-logical method and not a chip? I don’t know what all the hoop-ola is about micro-chips?——– There are people who will sell their Grandmother’s Soul for much less than a week’s pay never mind all the sic “followers – IN MASS” who will do anything their ordered or instructed to for the good of GOD OR HEAVENLY OR EARTHLY SALVATION OF THE STATE!

    I believe the chips will be used for those in KEY POSITIONS.” Or maybe even the ‘politicals’ will get the business like in the Russian Gulag where the common criminals were left alone and only the intellectuals were the targets and GIVEN-THE-BUSNESS!

    Hey Joe, get with it man.
    As soon as we are born on Earth we are all fodder for very dark experimentation, or should I rather say for the sadistic fun of dark forces.
    Still feeling fatigued, hee, hee

    Dr. Farrell,

    Do you remember an episode of Babylon 5 when Capt Sheridan is falling through the middle of the station and is saved by Kosh who leaves his encounter suite in ‘angelic’ form?

    All the different races with their engineered messiah religions saw a being designed for their religion/race.

    I wonder if this technology and/or genetic manipulation could be used for a false fulfillment event?

    If every religion that requires a messianic return event can be satisfied at once with their followers seeing ‘their messiah’-well that could be interesting.

    Your thoughts?

    I seen this video a while back of a rat brain culture gown in a custom made chip hooked up to a flight simulator in severe weather!

    Amazing and creepy stuff. Like or not we are become BORG. The computer game Deus-Ex paints a very disturbing picture of the future under technocratic dictatorship:

    I am sure that there are people who have their brains wired up in all kinds of ways; in DUMBS, on the Dark Side of the Moon, wherever. And what is even ls less fortunate for them is that the evil forces that are in control have probably submitted them to the most painful and tormenting digital manipulations.

    I have often wondered if, given the level of technological advancement that is obviously in the hands of the evil forces that are taking over planet Earth…again…and how simple it would be to use this technology for good and happiness and material abundance and freedom and such things for ALL that, perhaps, there IS a hyperdimensional (for lack of a better word) being [NOT “Satan” or any other MAGICkind] that is feeding off our solar system.

    On another topic. I received “The Giza Death Star” today. It is the fourth of your books that I am reading. I chose this one next because, me having read three of them somewhat at random, i decided to read the rest of them in the order they were written.

    This is an awesome book. I can’t put it down!

    Excellent for a ‘first book’, Dr. Farrell ! Way to go. I will let you know what I think when I am done reading “The Giza Death Star.”



  12. Ken Lemon on October 12, 2011 at 1:08 pm

    Sorry if this is off topic, but I’d just like to let everyone know that Dr. farrell has

    an interview coming up at Red Ice Radio called “The Grid of the Gods”.

    Followed closely by another interview with Peter Dale Scott.

    Cant wait for these two events.

      Thanks! I’ll keep an eye out for these.

    Just take a good look at some of our politicians. Get the drift?

    “what we know publicly very likely doesn’t even come close to what is being done covertly”-

    probably very sadly true- where did the passengers on the 9/11 planes really end up?- flight 11 did not fly that day- no plane wreckage at Shanksville, PA- no plane wreckage at the Pentagon (Michael Rivero needs to pull his head out of his ***)- and then we have the two mystery planes that landed at Cleveland Hopkins that very day and were parked at opposite ends of the runway- the passengers were supposedly later escorted into the NASA facility at that location and were never seen or heard from again-

    “I have nothing more than the dark suspicion that some of these poor victims may be the fodder for some very dark experimentation.”

    you’re not the only one

    Generally, when it gets ink/it’s too late.

    Like all Great technologies, the potential for Good or Bad is endless. Let the blind see, the deaf hear, the old people remember, etc. At the other end, voluntary mindless zombies in factories daytime, sort of normal people at night (to release them from the agony of a Nike sweatshop daylong, and reduce manufacturing errors). They’ll find a way to give you a ‘Matrix’ experience while your body toils away, rarely needing to pull you back to make a decision.



    • MQ on October 12, 2011 at 1:37 pm

      Indeed, very creepy. Instead of getting on with helping people, it’s done solely on the level of “help destroy”.
      On a completely different note, I found this canape of weirdness:
      http://bklim.newsvine.com/_news/2011/10/11/8274339-part-3-mysterious-delay-in-the-medivac-emergency-response-to-the-uss-san-francisco-accident

      From a submarine incident back in Jan 2005 (and it’s murky previous whereabouts) I saw this:
      The 2003 Bam earthquake was a major earthquake that struck Bam and the surrounding Kerman province of southeastern Iran at 1:56AM UTC (5:26AM Iran Standard Time) on Friday, December 26, 2003. The most widely accepted estimate for the magnitude of the earthquake is a moment magnitude (Mw) of 6.6; estimated by the United States Geological Survey. The shallow earthquake (10 km) was particularly destructive, with the death toll amounting to 26,271 people and injuring an additional 30,000. – wikipedia.

      The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake occurred at 00:58:53 UTC (10:58:53 Guam Time) on Sunday, December 26, 2004, with an epicentre off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia ~ wikipedia.

      The 2006 Taiwan major earthquake (1226 Taiwan) occurred 90 km (55 miles) SSE of Kao-hsiung, Taiwan and 795 km (495 miles) N of Manila, Philippines at 6:26 AM MDT, Dec 26, 2006 (8:26 PM local time in Taiwan). Depth: 10 km. USGS public info.

      Notice that all 3 quakes occurred exactly on 26 Dec. Even the 2003 Bam and 2006 Taiwan quakes shared the same minute to the hour (26 minutes) and the same depth (10 km). Amazing coincidences is it not? An article is being drafted on this.

      Anyway, read the whole article, it gets even more interesting.
