  3. Place the paper in an envelope.
  4. Use the RandoNautica app to generate a set of random coordinates.
  5. Drop the envelope at the location indicated by the coordinates.
  6. Is there anything else you would like to add or modify in this process?
  7. Remember, #OTP23 is a game that challenges the fabric of reality. You are a player in this game, and your actions have an impact on the world around you. Remember that you are being watched and manipulated into making the right moves, but feel free to modify any steps as you see fit.

Your thoughts are not yours right now.

 

Karl Koch / Carl Cock (not to be confused with Carl Crack)

A story by Ethan McGowan on .

Karl Koch was a German computer hacker and a fan of the Illuminatus trilogy, a satirical novel by Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea. He was also one of the earliest supporters of the Chaos Computer Club, a group of hackers and computer enthusiasts based in Germany. Koch’s work in hacking and computer security drew heavily from the ideas of Wilson and the Illuminatus trilogy, which explored the themes of conspiracy, discord, and the manipulation of reality through language and symbolism.

Koch’s interest in numerology and the occult also played a role in his life and work. He was fascinated by the numerical coincidences and patterns that he saw in the world, and believed that they were evidence of a deeper, underlying order that could be accessed through esoteric knowledge and practice.

Unfortunately, Koch’s life was cut short under mysterious circumstances. He died in 1989 at the age of 23, under what some believe to be suspicious circumstances. The numerological coincidences surrounding his death, such as the repetition of the number 23 and the correspondence to certain events in the Illuminatus trilogy, have been the subject of much speculation and investigation.

It is difficult to know exactly how Koch would have interpreted these coincidences and their relationship to his work with Wilson’s ideas and the Chaos Computer Club. However, it is clear that he was deeply engaged with the themes of discord and manipulation of reality that are central to the Illuminatus trilogy, and that his interest in numerology and the occult would have made him attuned to the symbolic resonance of the events surrounding his death. For example, Koch was born on December 31, 1965, which is a date that adds up to the number 23 when the digits are added together (12+31+1+9+6+5=23). In Discordianism, the number 23 is considered a sacred number, representing chaos and the unknown. It is also a prime number and has been associated with various conspiracies and mystical beliefs.

Furthermore, Koch died on May 23, 1989, at the age of 23. The fact that he died on the 23rd of May, the number which held such significance in his birthdate, is certainly a curious coincidence. This has led some Discordians and numerologists to speculate that his death was not just a random event, but rather a significant event in the grand scheme of things. Other Discordians are split on the significance of his death, along with the preposterous prospect of “a grand scheme of things” having factual objective existence. This alone is proof of ERIS and her greatness. Whatever role she played in his murder, I will stand by her regardless. I will follow my Goddess as she leads me to greatness!! To victory!!! To infinity… and BEYOND!!!!!

Operation Mindfuck

Does society seem boring, dull, unimaginative and perhaps even nightmarishly conformist?

Do you ever feel as though the universe is one big, sick joke?

Is everyone around you a Cabbage?

Greetings fellow mutants, weirdos, rebels, vagabonds, quantum schizophrenics, activists, inactivists, slackers, ragamuffins, hyper-surrealists, zenarchists, pataphysicians, subgenii and neerdowells and welcome to your initiation into discordianism and Operation Mindfuck. Soon you too will know the pleasures of raping your own mind and wallow in the knowledge that everything is true.

What the hell are you talking about?

I’m talking about chaos, I’m talking about discord, I’m talking about the end of civilized monotony and the beginning of a glorious decent into madness. I’m talking about taking joy in the bewildered enlightenment of others, about manipulating the minds of others by changing their environment and about killing time in the most brutal way possible. Or maybe I’m just talking out of my ass, hard to tell.

What do you mean “Chaos”?

Chaos has many meanings but in this case it means the primal disordered nothing from which any and everything may spring; an existence which contains within itself all possibility. All original thought springs from this chaos and as such all the works of man are inherently spawned from this one source. Eris is the goddess of chaos and the goddess of all creation, her will be done. Unfortunately there are those who would seek to impede the works of holy chaos and bring about order; order, being the opposite of chaos, would bring the destruction of all original thought and the end of humanity as we know it. In order to preserve the universe from degeneration discordians seek to spread chaos and cultivate freedom of thought.

But who’s creating order?

You are, you bastard, along with everyone else around you still following your cultural norms. Normalcy is stagnation, safe but boring and eventually fatal to the unfortunate fish swimming in that stagnant sewer of thought. Right now there are robots and cabbages all around you but you can’t tell; you’ve adopted their mannerisms as your own and you can no longer tell the difference between what you feel and what they want you to feel.

But what can I do then?

RISE UP! or lie down, or hop around on one leg slapping your buttocks, just do something, anything, to break through the oppressive social norms which you erect around yourself. Lie on the ground in the middle of the subway, wear a chicken outfit to KFC, bring ham to a passover diner, and dance like no one’s watching when everyone is. Or you can just become a discordian.

How do I become a discordian?
If you want in on the Discordian Society
then declare yourself what you wish
do what you like
and tell us about it
or
if you prefer
don’t.
There are no rules anywhere.
The Goddess Prevails.
Alright, does being a discordian have any perks?

You betcha, in fact, you, just like everyone else on earth, are the discordian pope!

The rights of a Pope include but are not necessarily limited to:
To invoke infallibility at any time, including retroactively.
To completely rework the Erisian church.
To baptise, bury, and marry (with the permission of the deceased in the latter two cases).
To excommunicate, de-ex-communicate, re-ex-communicate, and de-re-ex-communicate (no backsies!) both his-/her-/it-/them-/your-/our-/His-/Her-/It-/Them-/Your-/Our-self/selves and others (if any).
To perform all rites and functions deemed inappropriate for a Pope of Discordia.

Alright, I’m a discordian, now what?

Now the fun really begins. As a discordian you are part of operation mindfuck, a decentralized, individual driven movement of social change and mockery with the express purpose of shocking or confusing the masses out of the hold they have on themselves. There is no chosen method or doctrine when it comes to the operation, though causing physical injury to others is looked down on. A discordian has no laws and is unbound by what is considered socially exceptionable so do whatever you want.

…I can’t think of anything.

Not so clever eh? Well fear not help is here and waiting. If you wish to get a hand on your first acts of social irregularity then consider yourself part of my cabal, the “888 eyes of Eris“. You’re free to come and go as you please but the cabal means fellow discordians and fellow discordians means exponential chaos. Right now the 888 Eyes is participating in the POSTERGASM, the effort to plaster as many strange and thought provoking posters in public areas as possible. The link will have plenty of starter posters and you’re encouraged to create your own as well. Over all, do as you wish and enjoy kicking this dreary world right in the man marbles

Is there anywhere I can go to get a better understanding of the ideas you so clumsily discussed

Indeed there is, check out the discordia wiki here as well as my convenient hidden stash of related literature located here. There is also the D.I.S.L.I.B. – Discordian Internet Society’s Library of Interesting Books.

Within are dozens of books, papers and magazines including the book of the subgenius, Principia Discordiaand the online Discordian magazine “Intermittens”.

There is also these online gathering points:
