I feel a sense of urgency to prepare for a future of uncertainty. I am worried about the environmental obstacles we are facing, emanating from a culture that has become reliant on convenience and immediacy. This cultural paradigm has become enmeshed with the natural world and as a result we are harming the planet and have become disconnected from everything around us. I have developed a relationship with the mushroom, which has been leading me deep down into the Earth to prepare myself for enacting an intertwined paradigm shift that must take place in order for life to survive. My fungal entangled preparations are to enable myself to live in this shift while attempting to find footing in the present.

English Translation
How shall a Woman, Separated from her Love, get Peace in the month of Vaisakh?
Yea, she, who forgets her Life-mate and Master and deludes herself in Maya!
Know thou, that neither sons, nor wife, nor riches shall avail thee, but the Eternal Lord.
Enmeshed in Maya, the whole world has ended in misery.
But for the Lord’s Name, all else goes in the world to come.
Forget not the Lord, therefore, it is painful; without Him all else is void.
He alone is famed as Pure who clings to the Feet of the Lord.
I pray Thee, therefore, O Lord, Enter into my Home and Depart not…
Vaisakh is joyful and fragrant only if we have the touch of Him, the Eternal Lord.

Ayutthaya Historical Park, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Thailand
Ayutthaya city is the capital of Ayutthaya province in Thailand. Located in the valley of the Chao Phraya River, the city was founded in 1350 by King U Thong, who went there to escape a smallpox outbreak in Lop Buri and proclaimed it the capital of his kingdom, often referred to as the Ayutthaya kingdom or Siam. Ayutthaya became the second Siamese capital after Sukhothai. It is estimated that Ayutthaya by the year 1600 CE had a population of about 300,000, with the population perhaps reaching 1,000,000 around 1700 CE, making it one of the world's largest cities at that time, when it was sometimes known as the "Venice of the East".
In 1767, the city was destroyed by the Burmese army, resulting in the collapse of the kingdom. The ruins of the old city are preserved in the Ayutthaya historical park, which is recognised internationally as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The ruins, characterised by the prang (reliquary towers) and gigantic monasteries, give an idea of the city's past splendour. Modern Ayutthaya was refounded a few kilometres to the east.

surrendered silence
sounds of crackers
eardrums torn
back to gloom
back to doom
another new day
born to mourn
man on a cycle
on a paved road
of pain and despair
where have the
good days gone
hope twiddling
its thumb
cant deliver
what he had sworn
life after life
seems fucked forlorn
a fate outworn
on the threshold
of a mothers womb
trembling tragically
the soon to be bombed
newborn detonating
the soul of man
enmeshed in
human scorn
man only mans
greatest enemy
nemesis of hate
inborn

Diggers rest Railway Station Victoria- the Diggers are enmeshed into the fence. It was a very poignent moment for me as I stood alone thinking about the Diggers and taking pictures.
I'm preparing for an upcoming keynote later in November for an organization that just booked me, and asked them to share a bit of insight with me as to their current strategies, structure and innovation mindset.
It was a bit interesting to discover, when I found among the documents they sent me, this one around their strategic planning process. I'm not sure I am allowed to share it, but thought that I would because it just provides so much context!

Memo: Strategic Adaptive Realignment for Forward-Looking Innovational Synergy
To: Leadership Team
From: Office of Transformative Future Pathways
Date: October 12, 2024
Subject: Catalyzing Hyper-Responsive Strategic Convergence for Next-Gen Ecosystemic Optimization
In today's hyper-dynamic paradigm, our strategic scaffolding requires immediate recalibration to future-proof against emergent disruptors and catalyze omni-directional innovation vectors. Our adaptive modalities must transition from linear, hierarchical constructs into multi-faceted, cross-collaborative frameworks that can flexibly pivot in real-time to align with macro-trajectory shifts in ecosystemic trendspace.
We must galvanize our operationally holistic alignment mechanisms to actualize a seamless innovation pipeline that is consistently enmeshed with quantum-transformational goals. The gravitational pull of tomorrow’s meta-disruptions mandates an immersive symbiosis between agility-centric governance and outcome-centric synergistics. By harnessing our core competency in proactive adaptation, we can transcend traditional growth inhibitors and actualize a new dimensionality in value creation.
At the core, our focus will be on amplifying perpetual readiness through iterative recalibration of our strategic matrices and optimizing fractal connectivity across interdependent operational nodes. Converging our resilience portfolios into a hyper-modularized framework will allow us to bridge innovation chasms and initiate value-chain rebundling in a way that preempts fluctuational variabilities in consumer touchpoint engagement landscapes.
Therefore, it is critical we cascade alignment protocols that reconfigure our execution modalities into a perpetual beta state, allowing us to achieve synergistic agility while preempting obsolescence within disruptive innovation vectors. By coalescing this philosophy into a cohesive, innovation-first ethos, we will pave the way for exponential cross-domain pivot capacity, thereby empowering each node within the strategic ecosystem to align its adaptive imperatives to the compass of forward-leaning progressivity.
In closing, a universal commitment to this hyper-resilient recontextualization of our strategic foundation will catalyze our journey toward holistic future-readiness. This document serves as the preliminary roadmap for tomorrow-centric transformation, redefining our organizational DNA to pivot and align relentlessly in pursuit of continuous, future-aligned innovation ascendancy.

Attached to it was another internal memo written in response to this memo:
To: Leadership and Extended Impact Stakeholders
From: Department of Synergetic Quantum Realignment & Meta-Innovation Ecosystematics
Date: October 13, 2024
Subject: Strategic Paralysis Plan for Non-Progressive Organizational Alignment
In alignment with our mission to hyper-stabilize innovation stasis while fostering omni-channel synergy, we have developed a groundbreaking framework that strategically ensures activity without substantive progress. The Department of Synergetic Quantum Realignment & Meta-Innovation Ecosystematics is proud to present the following twenty initiatives that will engage organizational resources, leveraging them for maximum procedural engagement and minimal actionable outcomes.
Action Items for Optimal Strategic Paralysis:
Deploy a Synergistic Pivot Matrix Audit
Conduct frequency-specific reviews of pivot matrices, ensuring they overlap ambiguously with undefined objectives.
Leverage Quantum Proactivity Modules
Engage proactivity modules, targeting unlikely future disruptions to enhance abstract readiness.
Initiate Cross-Functional Feedback Loops
Formulate complex feedback structures across departments, aimed at generating insights without tangible outcomes.
Conduct Multi-Stage Resilience Verification
Validate organizational resilience using benchmarks irrelevant to current operational needs.
Launch a Meta-Disruptive Cohesion Taskforce
Assign a taskforce to oversee vague disruptive synergies with no defined scope or accountability.
Roll Out Proactive Capability Convergence Drills
Implement routine drills where teams converge undefined capabilities, optimizing for speculative readiness.
Institute Weekly Ecosystem Symbiosis Touchpoints
Enforce mandatory symbiotic touchpoints to promote system-wide cohesion in abstract, immeasurable ways.
Prototype Iterative Feedback Micro-Loops
Deploy micro-loops for feedback generation, designed to sustain repetitive review cycles without any real adjustments.
Facilitate Innovation Capacity Realignment
Reallocate resources to hypothetically critical innovation capacities, diluting efforts without noticeable impact.
Architect a Fractal Communication Framework
Build fractal communication systems ensuring every interaction is maximally complex yet strategically ambiguous.
Mandate Hyper-Anticipatory Strategy Sessions
Require bi-weekly sessions to plan for improbable scenarios, fostering strategic conversation without execution.
Synergize Omni-Channel Knowledge Cascades
Implement omni-channel cascades, ensuring knowledge disseminates broadly without actionable relevance.
Mobilize Quantum-Enabled ROI Forecasting
Introduce ROI models based on quantum principles, prioritizing speculative returns over tangible results.
Launch Divergent Goal Mapping Workshops
Encourage divergent workshops for goal setting, prioritizing conflicting paths to spread focus thinly.
Optimize Recursive Productivity Cycles
Assign cycles to revisit productivity metrics in endless review loops, avoiding substantive resolutions.
Coordinate Sub-Strategic Alignment Pods
Create pods with arbitrarily aligned goals, ensuring substantial resource commitment without clear outcomes.
Initiate Synergetic Holism Calibration Metrics
Implement metrics for “synergetic holism,” focusing on immeasurable, intangible benefits.
Deploy Agile-Oriented Bureaucracy Hubs
Establish hubs to refine agile principles through increased process formalities, thus creating agile-bureaucracy balance.
Integrate Non-Actionable Visionary Templates
Utilize visionary templates during planning, focusing solely on lofty, non-implementable objectives.
Orchestrate Continuous Feedback Vortexes
Develop feedback vortexes where team reviews cycle in perpetuity without leading to actionable change.
This initiative represents a landmark effort to solidify our stance as leaders in innovational stasis and non-disruptive engagement. It will empower us to consistently appear active, thereby fulfilling our objectives in activity-based operational stability.
We look forward to your engagement in these non-forward-moving yet enriching exercises.
Sincerely,
Department of Synergetic Quantum Realignment & Meta-Innovation Ecosystematics

They were asking me for a 30 day plan. So I responded.
To: Leadership Team
From: Jim Carroll, Futurist
Date: October 28, 2024
Subject: Unacceptable Innovation Paralysis – Immediate Action Required
I have to be blunt – I’m shocked by the inertia and red tape choking innovation here. The hesitation, the endless procedures, the unwillingness to take a real risk – it’s stalling progress at every turn. You’re at a critical juncture, and if you don’t act fast to overhaul this culture, you’ll be left behind.
Here’s what needs to happen now: We’re cutting half the processes that delay decision-making – full stop. From this point forward, we’re embedding risk-taking as a core value, and every leader here is responsible for championing it. No more hiding behind what’s “safe” or avoiding hard calls; this team needs to prioritize speed, bold thinking, and actual results over protocol.
In the next 30 days, I expect to see a visible transformation. Every team must bring at least one risky, untested idea to the table, and we’re moving on it fast. This is your wake-up call. If you can’t shift gears now, the future will move on without you.
Let’s get to work.

Of course, none of this is real. I had ChatGPT write it!
Please write a 500 word memo, full of incomprehensible buzzwords that has to do with the need to adapt a strategy to align to tomorrow and chase innovation. The paragraph should be as incomprehensible as possible.
Here's the thing. You've probably read memos like this.
Maybe you've written some stuff like this.
You shouldn't.
Just stop it.
Do you remember my post about "Bullshit Bingo" - a great game that went around the corporate world in the 90's?
Maybe it's time for a new one! So I had ChatGPT draw one up - take it into your next meeting!
The spelling isn't great, and there's a bit of duplication, but hopefully you can still use it!
Gotta go!
I have a Zoom call with the Chief Architect of Synergistic Quantum Evolution and Holistic Innovation Convergence!

Bert Flugelman’s reflective steel Cones has assumed an iconic presence in the National Gallery of Australia’s Sculpture Garden. Stretching more than 20 metres, Cones reveals that Flugelman had the public and the site very much in mind. While on one level the impression is of brilliant clarity and geometry, the whole is energised by the dynamic interaction of forms across the space. They reflect sky, ground and eucalypt trees, and involve the visitor as an active participant in the work, enmeshed temporarily in the flow of constantly changing possibilities.

Seahouses under slate sediment emerging to join history much as the young men with severe haircuts look for camaraderie in trenched game of football, until its time to go back and destroy the evidence, it hurts them more than it hurts men that are buckled in uniformly, it is after all a long way down and a long way round until you arrive, then it may seem pointless. Distraction is encouraged at every stage in classical theatre, where its known as reason. At night the softly focussed detail is a fluff of warm indistinctiveness the dust that lives in sunbeams, enmeshed in thickest tobacco smoke, enlivened by net-curtains, settles calmly , now buzzing trapped inside a neon stop-light, mistaken as morse and radio noise but its so dissimilar don't you think? its so theatrical, aroma of composed elements, no author could ever sign off something so defiantly unfinished. Gleefully they mow down the grass blades, lying to support their strident existence, from the beginning the bow string arc grew tense, their finest hour was not
An-My Lê (b. 1960)
Inkjet print
Seven photographs from photographer An-My Lê's new project, takes its title from o passage about Ulysses S. Grant in Walt Whitman's Specimen Days and Collect(1882). Lê has structured her examination of modern-day Louisiana in the spirit of Specimen Days's singular hybrid of poetry, journalism, and autobiography. In one image, a monument to a Confederate Army general quietly interrupts a quotidian urban landscape, another captures a moment on the set of Free State of Jones, a 2016 film about a Confederate Army deserter. As in so many of Lê's works, in these images the imagined past and the actual present coexist
in the same frame, begging the question: when does history end and the present begin? Taken as a group,
the photographs propose that perhaps history never ends, that the raw materials of America's bloodiest war -- issues of race, class, labor, and wealth -- are still deeply enmeshed in the landscape of the United States and the fabric of its society.
Now that I’m fully enmeshed in my mid-30s (which I will definitely be telling jokes about later!), sometimes my naturally red hair needs a little help maintaining its brightness. That’s where @evelynputnam comes in. With her warmth, generosity, skill, and care, I’ve been trusting her to guide me through my hair’s aging process since 2013. What’s even cooler is that she often does hair and makeup for professional photo shoots and films! 📷: @theladyelisse / on Instagram www.instagram.com/p/BqvhFvmFsIy/

Mojari or Jutis is a style of handcrafted footwear. They are traditionally made by artisans mostly using tanned leather. The uppers are made of one piece of leather or textile embroidered and embellished with brass nails, cowry shells, mirrors, bells and ceramic beads. Even the bonding from the upper to the sole is done by cotton thread that is not only eco-friendly but also enmeshes the leather fibers with great strength.
