The Observatory Archives invites Hakim Bey to reflect on this subject as a contribution to OVNI dis_Reality. Hakim Bey is the pseudonym of Peter Lamborn Wilson (EE. UU. October 1945 - May 2022), an American writer, essay writer and poet who describes himself as an “ontological anarchist” and a Sufi. His 1990 work TAZ: The Temporary Autonomous Zone made him famous. As well as writing a series of essays on the traditions of Chinese secret societies (Tong), Bey introduced the concept of the Temporary Autonomous Zone based on his research into pirate utopias. Bey has also written about figures like Charles Fourier and Friedrich Nietzsche, and on the links between Sufism and ancient Celtic culture. Along with these authors and theories, Situationism has also been an important influence in Bey's texts, which could be considered as an updating of its ideas for the present.

The Observatory Archives invites John Zerzan to reflect on this subject as a contribution to OVNI dis_Reality John Zerzan is an American anarchist and primitivist philosopher and author. His works criticize agricultural civilization as inherently oppressive, and advocate drawing upon the ways of life of prehistoric hunter-gatherers as an inspiration for what a free society should look like. Some of his criticism has extended as far as challenging domestication, language, symbolic thought (such as mathematics and art) and the concept of time. His major books are Elements of Refusal (1988), Future Primitive and Other Essays (1994), Running on Emptiness (2002), Against Civilization: Readings and Reflections (2005) and Twilight of the Machines (2008).

Narrated by Dr. Stephen Wolinsky, this two and a half hour documentary contains not only the teachings of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj but also “experiential meditations” to lead the viewer into That One substance from which all phenomena arise.

The only TV documentary to have a preview of the biggest Wikileaks release ever. This is what really happened during the Iraq war, not what the US PR machine of the time wanted us to believe. The reality behind the civilian death count; al-Qaeda's fictitious presence; torture, torture and more torture. A wall of truth revealing unprecedented levels of unwarranted aggression. "The detainee was blindfolded, beaten about the feet and head, electricity was applied to his genitals, and he was sodomized with a water bottle". These secret US military files from 2004-2009 record 300 acts of torture perpetrated on Iraqi prisoners; all after the world gasped at images of grinning US soldiers holding naked Iraqis on leashes. Far from winning the hearts and minds of the people, coalition forces have killed so many civilians, that insurgency has sky-rocketed. The air force launches Hellfire missiles at men with their arms raised in surrender, and at goat herders digging for roots.
