To: alt.magick.chaos From: l'acatraz, henri (tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com) Subject: Re: Generic System Date: 28 Nov 1994 10:44:46 GMT (evul kaos daze 73) Quoting: % ashton@netcom.com (AShtoN) Creating systems is kinda old hat. create a META-system whereby magical systems (*individual ones usable by the creator*) can be easily fabricated. Come up with META-principles which describe various approaches that have been used over the years, including their advantages and disadvantages. Create a database of elements useful to such a creation.... It is easy to create magical systems. Doing so is a very valuable exercise. Create a few of them. Figure out the difficulties of doing so, much like creating a character in a role-playing game. After creating some, then see how easy it is to fuse apparently opposing elements into a system, such as the fierce rabbit of caerb'rnaaagh or bambi-wiccan-satanists-using-the- necromicon (sick). Chaos magick deserves to be more than just more tired mages making more useless noise about a new paradigm and cultural constant. Fabricate the *real* auto(self)nom(naming)matrix(mother-maker), not some fancy non- organization. The Science of the Mages does not reside in the creation of technical devices. It is composed of those who evolve the very methods of INVENTION! Waste not thy time with further corpulescence in the name of imagination. henri l'acatraz
