THEE ONE TOPI TRIBE Annual Celebration and Invokation

Thursday Dec. 15, 2011 at Europa in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NY.

Hot off the presses we have TWO new vinyl PTV3 releases. The first is the second installment in the ongoing series with Vanity Case Records in the UK. “Mother Sky vs. Alien Sky” is a limited edition of 500 copies on blue + white vinyl. The second is the first in our new “Handmade” series. “Thank You (Parts I & II)” is a limited edition of 230 copies. Plus we have the 2007 “Hell Is Invisible…Heaven Is Her/e 2 x colored vinyl edition back in stock after 50 copies were discovered at the Cargo UK warehouse!

Strange how we search for where we claim to copyright a lifestyle, but can’t find it. We are happy and excited to see a debate, with passion from some people finally which as to be step one before ANY attempt at finding land and committing everything we/anyone has to the project. Believe me we ARE aware of pitfalls…please note we feel we are polite and TRY to be positive no matter the tone of responses at times.
It would be nice to get beyond the criticisms and veiled negative remarks and focus on IF how any number of actual coum-unities of infinite, even contradictory, styles and structures could BE created with long term staying power.
Which remains the ultimate objective of OTTT.
That And give compassionate devotion and service to our species.
What do you all want to create? Achieve? With your “sick” project.?

I often struggle to find the distinction between showing affinity, kinship and sympathy for someone’s chosen cause and “parasitism”. Thus my avoidance of utilizing iconography and symbols originating from the intellectual domain of another. Too often we mistakenly feel we are sharing a path when we are only perceived as infringing upon it.

Uncondemning Monk6:40pm Nov 25

is it just me, or is this contradictory? and really, language is a shared thing, you coin a word, and then only you can use it, ? seriously? this is from a person who proposed a light house as a strategic place… or how about another house where it does not work because people most likely not meant to live up each others asses… and even when sharing a single home, like with NY State and what is now eastern region of the US had rather large homes and plenty of space… but our idea of private space, private language, ect… the idea of ownership is born with capitalism as it has manifest… this real abstraction… there is no historical reason to think that we will simply collapse over night (utterly and completely, power erodes, transforms, reinstates, please read about Sovereignty (I recommend Derrida’s lectures on the matter)… anyway, I doubt there will be much left of a pandrogeny project IF the regime collapses, as the physical part of the experiment (inspired by a character played by Gene Simons, as well as Platonic notions, AOS, and others, of a split beings (and its M-Other; Lacanian Psychoanalysis—- famous for There is No Big Other, and There is No Woman… this is not about biology, but it does do with the merely as in mirror)) and being inspired by these peoples is not a bad thing, where do ideas come from if not the “world” (that which is not one), our worlds worlding (because worlds do, see the work of Mereleu-Ponty (not to simply name drop, but to give sources and allow others to evaluate to be on a more common or equal footing in regards to sources of language data, the individual is alway social, and language unless it be (onesidely) schizophrenic, is also common (its POWER and CONTROL that have to step in and say something, use force sometimes to keep it)…. moving on to or past binary theories of biology (as well as self, selfhood, and the body, again the body in the way articulated by Mereleu-Ponty, as well as Luce Irigaray) Evolutions Rainbow [another work that rethink our binary notion of biology, which we have heard Genesis think about) —-we do not agree with this or that, but as a whole, we do not see anyone as our enemy (as such), they will continually reveal themselves when they slap the food from your hand as you try to feed your starving brother… that is the face of evil, and people become IT. Anyway, it seems a shame that we cannot carry on a dialog to move this forward to something more constructive like how to continue to build decentralized, leaderless (if that is desirable) communities that at once rethink communes (as if no one else has been a part of a communal experiment…) and how one will be best able to SURVIVE with the decay or dissemination of the current dominant social order as it is oft referred too… anyway… this is the most time we will put into this here…

Dear Kriss,
First we NEVER call our self transgender. Secondly. How conveniently you use irrelevant sexism to avoid a long emai we spent time and respect for your point of view writing….pandrogeny ois NOT about gender, its about evolutionary potential…literally and metaphorically…

Please re read my email we spent a great deal of loving thought on trying to coumunicate we, the OTTT is about setting up physical centers to develop maximised creativity through shared resources.

We have politely asked to be rempoved from your email list. No more, no less. It’s a pity that you deliberately utilise OTTT. And “C.oumUNITY” to parasitize our entity and positive (not S.iCK) hopes to be a part of a constructive attempt to create templates and experiments for a coumpassionate, unselfish, ethical and tribally loyal possible model for autonomous,unselfish, LONG lasting coum-unities based upon shared resources and skills in preparation for what some of us see as an inevitable dis-integration pof the currently imposed “totalitarian capitalism”. Our odds, humanities odds, of survival are slim. But nevertheless, if we have to choose between “facebook” style flippancy and veiled abuse, emanating from people hiding behind fake IDs and a surprising lack of clear, documented and globally effective proposals and actions that are already PROVEN to have positively expanded the means of perception with altruistic intent rooted in contemporary and future seeking culture…we ask, WHAT exactly have YOU given to the world”s culture and utopian dreams of deep evolutionary change? Perhaps if, whoever ypou REALLY are, revealed your names and spent 40plus years risking everything you possess and all the unique And/or communal movements you have devoted your life to offering as altermnatives we could evaluate better the weight and importance of your adolescent piggy-backing on the sincere and lifelong devotion of the OTTT coum-unity..?
Any adolescent parody like yours is fun to do. Being destructive for sheer fun, or for sheer vindictiveness in attacking a small but sincere group of beings is easy and …yes damaging. It’s actually more depressing to me that you use your irreplaceable TIME being destructive to those who are, in truth, your allies instead of developing your own, perhaps justifiably, more cynical nettwork, to assist in destabilising the current entropic Control Systems and atrophied economic theories, in conjunction with, or parallel to,our own perhaps more idealistic attempts? Our serious “enemies” are not each other. They are and aways have been “BiG MOTHER”…

So we refuse to see anypne tryoing tp create new autonomous zones of creation as rivals, or targets for internicine bickering. The path to A future WILL require deep social change. Sharing of any and all resources and personal skills and robust compounds and coum-unities (as WE define our own tribal language) a letting go of greed, competing, selfishness and pre-Astoric binary roles and gender assignmeants.
As a matter of politeness, create your OWN language and linguistics. To attack a deeply idealistic tribe whilst “stealing” it’s decades old internal systems is less than original and only serves to imply a need to exploit OUR tribe’s L-if-E long dedication to CHANGE in order to mislead & misdirect newcoumers to your own apparently negative motiv es.

If you want adolescent games, there’s loads of sites who’d love you. But OTTT as the ratios rise and banking collapses are genuinely seeking sanctuary fueled by loving creativity.

VIVA LA EVOLUTION !!!

This IS our cross
This IS our L-if-E
This IS our mystery

The 10th anniversary of 9/11 is the quintessential occasion to champion downtown New York artists in a political arena entitled Knock Knock, Who’s There? 9/11! 9/11 Who? You Said You’d Never Forget! Directly from the heart of Julie Atlas Muz this three act political cabaret is for the luminaries of NYC to come together and exercise our patriotic right of freedom of speech.

All proceeds goes to the Uniformed Firefighters Association of New York, Widow’s and Children’s Fund.

Ten years ago we were all devastated by the tragedies that befell our city that caused such heartache and forever changed the nature of our personal relationship with our government and their sale of terror. Now it is our duty as artists to reflect the times. Julie Atlas Muz and Jen Gapay of Thirsty Girl Productions are creating an evening for New York City’s top performers to come together, remember, comfort, challenge and with our natural bad taste laugh together through nudity, poetry, dance, song, comedic commentary, drag illusion, sincerity, absurdity and all the talent that makes New York, New York.

Sunday, 9/11/11 Doors 7:00 pm
Set times: 8:00, 9:11 & 11pm

Act 2: AMERICAN IN TRANSITION 9:11pm
Hosted by Justin V. Bond

ACT 3: “OH NO YOU DI-INT!” 11pm

Last night we did a photo shoot of the new PTV3/Psychic TV line-up. The first ever photoshoot even though we have toured Europe once and a bit and played various shows in the USA, including our annual One True TOPI Tribe celebration and invokation at Club EUROPA in Brooklyn, New York in December each y-era. Usually we manage to play on December 23rd…this y-era due to circumstances, we will be playing (we believe) on the 15th December.

We have been slowly recording versions of our new songs at Jeff “Bunsen” Berner’s studio in Brooklyn old style. That means, to us, we go in without ANY rehearsals, focus inside and then, in one room the musicians play similtaneously with moveable baffles separating them for miking purposes and ME (gen) in a separate soundproofed room with a mike. We discuss the concept of the tracks. A loose, improvisedversion of a super classic track, in this case “MOTHER SKY” by CAN. We all play together, live, using only headphones to hear each other. After one take. That is it. STRAIGHT TO TAPE as they’d say, AND DO, in the sixties. We know there will be sceptics who find it impossible to believe we play once without rehearsal. We dont care. And YES, we(me) have a theme for the vocals content and structure, BUT as ever we can’t help improvising new lyrics etc. The band too are super linked consciousnesses aswe play. It amazes me, and our band, how scripted and tight the songs end up sounding. Truly it IS PSYCHIC tv…Each “cover” song has a B Side , for the next 12 inch Ltd edition single it is “ALIEN SKY” .For my SELF these songs that are resulting are my favourite tracks we have ever recorded in ANY band in any era. BUT that does NOT mean we don’t love many songs from our 34 year creation of music and songs. But we’ve NEVER been this thrilled and satisfied as with the new tracks and “Maggot Brain/Alien Brain”. We find it hard to conceive how pure and instantly these tracks appeared. No overdubs, no reruns. ONE TAKE. We even had extra studio time as a result of doing single takes, so Edley ODowd suggested we might as well play/jam for the last 10 minutes…so we did and ended up with an entirely original new song about my Beloved Lady Jaye called ”THANK YOU”……PTV3 is, in my opinion, as hot and fresh as ANY band out there right now. COme see us if we are in your town. Theres a good chance of PTV3 playing Houston and Dallas later this year, ADELAIDE, Australia in MARCH 2012 is on!!! The photo that sent me ranting is for Australia for the big Arts Festival catalogue etc. Also we realised there wasnt really a band photo since Jeff “Bunsen” Berner joined us. Maybe even since our keyboardist Jess Stewart joined. SO here we are folks, we wouldn’t lie to you. These once were some BEEautifull men and women!!!
