When Spirits Inspire: Rosemary Brown’s Musical Mediumship

Rosemary Brown’s extraordinary claims of channeling music from the likes of Chopin, Liszt, and Debussy have long fascinated and polarized audiences, sparking a maelstrom of debate at the nexus of creativity, spirituality, and skepticism. On one hand, her alleged ability to produce works reminiscent of the great masters, despite modest musical training, challenges conventional wisdom on the origins of artistic expression. On the other, the lack of empirical evidence to substantiate her claims invites skepticism, underscoring the tension between the human propensity for belief and the rigors of rational inquiry.

At the heart of Brown’s paradox lies the question of creativity’s essence: is artistic expression inherently personal and earthly, or can it transcend mortal boundaries, tapping into a collective, eternal reservoir of creative potential? Proponents of Brown’s claims point to the advanced harmonies and tonality characteristic of the channeled composers’ styles, suggesting a supernormal origin that defies earthly explanation. Conversely, skeptics dismiss the works as either unacknowledged personal talent or fabrication, highlighting the human capacity for self-delusion and the fallibility of perception. Notably, the decision of renowned pianists to record her works lends a degree of credibility to their stylistic authenticity, yet this does not conclusively prove the paranormal aspect of her claims.

The subjective nature of evaluating artistic merit, particularly when authorship is in question, further complicates the debate. Expert opinions on the compositions’ quality are sharply divided, reflecting the intricate dance between technical skill, psychological factors, and the observer’s predispositions. This dichotomy underscores the need for a balanced assessment, one that considers both the compositional nuances and the contextual influences shaping perception. By acknowledging the complexities of human experience, we may better understand the motivations and beliefs underlying Brown’s claims, and indeed, the broader implications of her case.

Brown’s background, marked by adversity, might suggest a predisposition to seeking comfort in spiritualism. However, investigations revealing no evidence of deception or mental aberration, coupled with portrayals of her sincerity and unassuming nature, complicate skeptical viewpoints. This finding highlights the importance of approaching such cases with empathy, recognizing that the human psyche is capable of navigating extraordinary experiences without necessitating deception or pathology. By doing so, we open ourselves to a deeper understanding of the intricate relationships between art, spirituality, and the human experience.

The far-reaching implications of Brown’s story extend beyond the realm of music or her personal life, contributing to fundamental discussions about consciousness and the possibility of life after death. For some, her channeling serves as anecdotal evidence reinforcing the notion of an afterlife, where creative energies persist beyond the mortal coil. Skeptics, conversely, view it as a testament to human creativity and the boundless potential of the human mind, even in the face of adversity. Brown’s case encourages a thoughtful examination of the interplay between belief, creativity, and the human experience, inviting us to reflect on the mysteries surrounding us.

Oh yeah Rev was in the episodes I showed to my friend today too and he was decently well behaved. Calling Ai a he for once:

And I know what the dub did with his response to Akira saying he's going to die if they don't stop Ai was funny and all but... I like this better:

Is it just the Rev simp in me thinking this part is cute? He's basically saying he'll protect him and says it so softly and... well, it's just cute. Code me to safety, you lil softie.

Oh yeah I also don't hate the Pandor thing anymore. AIs have gotten so much scarier/worse irl lately that Rev programming Pandor to not have thoughts against humanity just doesn't bother me whatsoever anymore. I 100% get it. I think it was more so the phrasing of that scene that bothered me when I first saw it.

[gibbearish]

a weird little thing abt me is i will definitely mock shitty ai art but it never feels right doing it about the hands simply by virtue of the fact that a lot of them look indistinguishable from the hands i was doing years ago when i first got a drawing tablet

[moonlit-orchid]

So do y'all use AI to learn codes and write important emails you don't have the time to write and basically gain knowledge from it, or do you use it to write the particular fanfiction you want to read but are too lazy/unable to write yourself

My time has come.

This WIP is called Gingo and the Big Wide World (Gingo pronounced "gingko" but without the k). Gingo is a runaway robot mule that is exploring the human world and learning how humans make art.

A sci-fi story that takes place in the 2050s where robots have taken over high mortality and soul sucking labor. Many people now enjoy crafting art and writing and socializing in their spare time. The major use of AI generators by large companies has come and gone.

Gingo is an AI fusion generator with a feature to scan their surroundings and print pictures with fusions of public photos and artwork. They are kept by a corporation that makes a profit by selling the prints. Gingo was programmed by someone who had it that they can only fuse media in the public domain and it has been frustrating for company management because Gingo's prints were low in demand and they needed them to have more variety. Despite their best efforts, they couldn't tear down Gingo's restrictions.

Gingo quietly gained sentient while under their ownership and became wonderstrucked by the art around them. From buildings remodeled after 1920s architecture to topiary to cave paintings. With the lack of sales for the company, management bit the bullet and paid human artists plenty to make prints. Human art sold well and Gingo enjoyed their newfound free time by watching the human artists work. The artists don't mind but the company isn't sure what to do with Gingo because they are expensive to maintain and they have become obsolete.

Gingo overheard a conversation between executives to have them decommissioned and feeling fear for the first time, Gingo escaped.

The story centers on Gingo traveling the city. Going to museums and libraries to see more art made by humans. They learn the history of AI generators used by corporations and the near creative collapse it caused and wondered if that correlates with the lack of interest in the Company's generated stock. Their one problem is that they need verbal input directed to them to make a print, and since most humans didn't like their prints, few have given them a concept to make. Now they travel to find a new art method and also find "soul" to their prints were criticized to lack.

Gingo does seek refuge in houses of artists for shelter from storms and to hide from the company searching for them. They spend time with a carpenter and his family where they experience shared humanity. Then a traditional painter where they learn how to finger paint. They bounce from house to house and learn about everything.

More about Gingo.

Gingo has no mouth so their dialogue is strictly thoughts. Their only auditory output is a series of clicks.

Gingo refers to themself in third person.

Gingo has no other outward senses beyond hearing and seeing. Meaning that while they can hear and see, they can't feel the world around them. You could kick Gingo and they won't feel any pain. You could pet Gingo and they won't feel the warmth of your hand.

Even then, Gingo knows that they love and if someone loves them back.

writers, listen up...

i've fallen out of touch with the writeblr community a lot in the past few years, and i want to rectify that. the community aspect was what made me fall in love with tumblr, and what improved my writing for the better.

the golden days of my writing were when i was highly active and engaged in this wonderful community, but life and work and the horrors of self publishing have overtaken my energy in the past year. however, i have been really struggling with original writing, and i want to get back into the community here.

that said...

you write fantasy with queer characters

are an indie author

post frequently about your wips (taglists are a bonus!)

are queer

are a very active and friendly writer

if any of these apply

please, please reblog and tell me about your wip. gush over it. infodump. characters and ships and worldbuilding and plot, i want it all! this is your invitation to be as selfishly indulgent as possible. let's make some new friends and restore some community!!

boosts appreciated!

Is AI Really Bad for Article Writing?

In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in content creation has become a topic of intense debate. As AI-powered writing tools become more sophisticated, the question arises: Is AI really bad for article writing, or can it be a valuable asset in the content creation process? The Perceived Drawbacks of AI Writing One of the primary concerns surrounding…

[myassignmenthelpservices]

You must know that artificial intelligence produces text that resembles human text. And, because of the limited understanding, it gives similar responses to everyone as per their command. That means uniqueness is lacking in AI content. On the other hand, a skilled writer can maintain the authenticity of the work. That’s one of the primary differences between AI and human writing. As you move further, you will observe more things like vocabulary, language flow, relatability, and others.

Physics, Philosophy, and the Fabric of Time: An Examination of Asymmetry

The human perception of time is fundamentally asymmetric, marked by a clear distinction between past and future, and an irreversible flow of events. This inherent asymmetry starkly contrasts with the time-reversal symmetry of fundamental physical laws, from Newton’s mechanics to quantum mechanics and relativity. Delving into this paradox reveals a complex interplay between philosophical inquiry and physical explanation, highlighting the challenges of reconciling our macroscopic experiences with the symmetric laws governing the microscopic realm.

At the heart of this dilemma lies the paradoxical coexistence of time-reversal symmetric physical laws with our asymmetric experience of time. While microscopic laws are indifferent to time’s direction, macroscopic phenomena—such as the second law of thermodynamics’ entropy increase and our disparate access to past and future—unequivocally demonstrate time asymmetry. Ludwig Boltzmann’s statistical mechanics offers a partial explanation through entropy, but this is complicated by the time-reversal symmetry of microscopic laws, suggesting equal probability for a process and its reverse.

The “Past Hypothesis,” proposing a universe initiated in a low entropy state, may provide a framework for understanding observed time asymmetries. Combined with statistical mechanics, this hypothesis explains why physical processes appear asymmetric and why our knowledge of the past exceeds that of the future. It also touches upon our belief in influencing the future, not the past, with profound implications for causality, free will, and the nature of time.

Pursuing a physically grounded explanation, rather than definitional or grammatical interpretations, is crucial. The limitations of current laws in accounting for the arrow of time highlight a knowledge gap, necessitating innovative insights at the intersection of thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and statistical mechanics.

Further understanding may emerge from exploring quantum mechanics’ probabilistic nature and its influence on our understanding of time, as well as examining the universe’s initial conditions and evolution in setting the arrow of time. An interdisciplinary approach, integrating philosophical and physical theories, promises to address causal and knowledge asymmetries, potentially reconciling symmetric physical laws with our asymmetric experience of time.

Resolving this conundrum promises not only to illuminate the nature of time but also to contextualize human existence within the universe’s unfolding narrative, highlighting the profound interconnectedness of human perception, physical laws, and the cosmos. As we navigate the complexities of time asymmetry, novel perspectives may transform our understanding of the universe and our place within it.

who would vin

My sister who fucking uses AI

vs

Me who can't create stories unless it's on paper

[tayne-dot-exe]

This is probably a lot more just me watching way more movie video essays than movies but I think we can come out of this era of devalued storytelling understanding art better than ever. Like I guess by nature you can only get so much depth from anything made for the mainstream super broad appeal, but as someone who was into cinemasins and tvtropes type stuff in high school I think as a society its not for nothing for people to have started asking pedantic questions about things that happen in a movie, and then see the movie industry react as if theyre trying not to have those questions asked, and have people go "ohhh maybe all that stuff isn't the point of the story that we're really here for. What are we really here for" and in a way we thought the answer to that was "we want character complexity" and the movie/tv industry answered that with characters who are a little too self aware of their problems in a way that also is kind of what we "asked" for but not what we really need.

Like this is simultaneously a failure of how media literacy is taught and art under capitalism blindly seeking what audiences want through trial and error, but I think its valuable to see for yourself why something is needed by seeing what happens when you strip away what you thought was unnecessary.

Great prompt :D but changing pov's without telling is kinda disturbing tho

You wake up in a chair in a padded cell. Someone else sits across from you. A voice from a speaker in the ceiling says, “One of you is a natural person. One of you is artificial. Determine which is which. The real person gets to go free.” You can’t remember anything before this room.
