Change is the only constant (well… change and fun!)
And we’re back 
After a 3 month sabatical from The Free Party Project, Facebook, Twitter, online gaming and pretty much all things online and digital I’M BACK!!!!
It’s been a time of rest, deep reflection and retreating to the hills for perspective. A time to plan the way forward and think about the past. Every story has a background which the author is aware of but which often doesn’t make it onto the published pages. This background story gives the actual story more flavor and a richer texture. The background story to The Free Party Project has been alluded to in these posts and in the links on the side of the site, but I’ve never come out and discussed it. So…. time to take the plunge and begin telling the story behind the story.
I guess most of you have some ideas about 2012, many have no opinion and a few have very definite ideas about what will or might happen. I fit in the third group. I have some VERY definite ideas about 2012. To be more precise, I have some very definite ideas about the last bit of December, 2012.
Yes we all know by now that the Mayan Calendar ends and that some American will spend a couple of days racing across the planet in a variety of planes to catch a lift on the Arcs the Chinese will be building (yeah right), but what’s the whole hoo ha all about and what does The Free Party Project have to do with it anyway?
Does the world end? And what does end mean anyway? If the world does end does that mean we can just lose our shit for the next 3 years or is there something we can do about it? What does it all mean Basil?
I’ll get to ALL the above over the next few weeks, but first a little taste of what I believe and what you can expect over the next while here on The Project.
Firstly, even though I’m renting as apposed to buying property for the next few years and even though I’m not making any long term plans besides building up my supply of camping equipment, I DONT believe the world is going to end.
What I do believe is that the acceleration we are all feeling and the waves of music culture we have been seeing since the 60’s are all part of a preparation for a MASSIVE change. The change will not necessarily be comfortable or even survivable for many and from the perspective of some (especially bankers and insurance people – sorry guys!) it may well seem like the end.
What I believe lies just around the corner is a door. I believe that human’s next major evolutionary leap is about to happen. It’s going to bring a massive change of consciousness and a change of lifestyle and society for those who are ready. I also believe that those who are NOT ready are going to really find it tough to understand this new world.
So why the Free Party Project and what is the link to music?
What have I been asking you to do all this time?
TURN UP, TUNE IN and BE FREE!!!!
Turn Up where life calls you, Turn Up for friends, for family and for every opportunity afforded to have fun, share love and enjoy this incredible journey… don’t be a spectator to your own life. Grab it and ride if for every thrill it wants to give you.
Tune In to the music, Tune In to life, Tune In to your inner voice.
Free yourself from the rules, free yourself from the restrictions, free yourself from your fears and shortcomings.
In short, The Free Party Project is my attempt to provide a platform for those who want it to raise consciousness, to come closer to other like minded people in a world that seems hell bent on pulling us apart. It’s an attempt to infuse some sanity from the syringe of humor and music. A jab in the arm of anti-social programming. A hit of un-reality. A pill of possibility and a different line of thinking. Excuse the drug references but I AM a child of the 90’s and my metaphors are unavoidably tainted.
The site is currently undergoing a re-design which will make it more community oriented. The posts will be returning as of this one and I will continue to share music and views a few times a week, however we will be adding loads more content about 2012 so that you can make your own decisions about what YOU believe or don’t believe as the case may be. There will be more ways for you to becoming involved, comment and post on the site. Online discussions and information sharing will be supported.
The free mixes will continue, with the next one coming in the following week.
The events will also resume for those who wish to attend, however we will also be doing some more guerilla events in the city in the middle of the working day to do our bit to shock the workers out of their stupor.
There are almost 3 years left. A lot of time if we use it, a fleeting moment if we don’t. Don’t go through the door as a part of the system, open your eyes and answer ALL the burning questions you have about why the world feels so damn wrong! Stop ignoring the signs and never ever fight down the intuition that things are out of place. Start to listen and you’ll be amazed at how many signs there are right now and how many signposts there already are about what is the correct direction to be taking.
So, I’m back, I’m very very well and I want you all to come back to the playground and just
Turn Up
Tune In
Be Free
