A muse to gaze upon...

Hand made tattoo machine stand, finished today. My own design… Enjoy!

New machines… The few I have made this year. More coming up when I have the urge to build.

For more machines check out my website http://www.maskinisten.nu

Just drawing some lines at my poor wall. I will be adding colour to the line work next week. Acrylics with various brush sizes. And inside the “frame” of the geometric pattern the little nifty Ouroboros reptilian will reside. It’s one thing to have a clear picture of the whole idea in the head, I just hope that I can pull this one of when it’s done.

To be continued… So check back soon!

Just finished reading DMT The Spirit Molecule by Rick Strassman, M.D. Fascinating stuff indeed! I first learned about his Dmt research project while plowing through the Darklore books. And after have seen the documentary film I felt that I just had to dig a little deeper on this subject. For some this stuff is just mindboggling or plain nonsense, but I must say that for me it is kind of a missing piece in the puzzle of the pineal gland and brain chemistry that’s been unveiled… Or so to speak.

I leave you with a little quotation from the book…

…” It is almost inconceivable that a chemical as simple as DMT could provide access to such an amazingly varied array of experiences, from least dramatic to the most unimaginably earth-shattering. From psychological insights to encounters with aliens. Abject terror or nearly unbearable bliss. Near-death and rebirth. Enlightenment. All of these from a naturally occurring chemical cousin of serotonin, a widespread and essential brain neurotransmitter.

It is just as fascinating to ponder why Nature, or God, made DMT. What is the biological or evolutionary advantage to having various plants and our bodies synthesize the spirit molecule? If DMT is indeed released at particularly stressful times in our lives, is that a coincidence, or is it intended? If it is intended, for what purpose?..”

I highly recommend you to read this book! And while your at it you should see the film Enter the void.

Feed your brain!

What a great night! Hangin around in the studio with bandmates and beer, and then of to see Russian circles.

Awsome band, they did a really great gig!

Every continent and sea bed houses mysterious ancient structures that don’t fit the conventional wisdom of human civilization, development, or technology.

I truly admit that I am a firm believer that many conventional theories (which we have been taught as fact) has flaws and need to be reconsidered as just theories.

It’s just that after researching the available evidence of many theories based as fact you will find yourself standing with all these ancient evidence that function as a nail in the eye of many conventional scientists… A nail in the eye they wont acknowledge and that makes them afraid of getting laughed at.   

Therefore, this evidence is often mis-represented, ignored, What is being protected?

What is the common thread that ties all of these ancient places together?

I believe that there was an ancient civilisation… Lost, gone and forgotten. Call it Atlantis if you so wish.

Here are some interesting things to keep in mind while playing with the thought of an lost civilisation…

…In the ancient Egyptian Temple of Edfu, it’s written on the wall’s that the temple was built by the dictates of the Ancestors, known as the Seven Sages, who lived on the Primeval Mound, which was consumed by a flood, the Seven Sages having ostensibly created the new world after the flood, the temples according to their design, for instance, the Sphinx, great Pyramid of Giza.

(By the way, incredible as it may seem, the Sphinx is much older then previously thought.)

The same myth goes with the ancient site of Tiwanaku and Puma puncu in peru…
(the Inca’s did not take credit for either Tiwanaku or the megalith walls in Sacsayhuaman Cusco)

…Long ago in a forgotten time the world experienced a terrible storm with tremendous floods. Some time after the deluge, the creator god Viracocha arose from the depths of Lake Titicaca. Journeying first to the island of Titicaca, Viracocha commanded the sun, moon, and stars to rise. Next going to Tiwanaku (whose original name, taypicala, meant ‘the rock in the center’), Viracocha fashioned new men and women out of stones and, sending them to the four quarters, began the repopulation of the world. With various helpers, Viracocha then traveled from Tiwanaku, bringing civilization and peace wherever he went. He was said to have been a bearded, blue-eyed, white man of large stature. A teacher and a healer, a miracle worker, astronomer. He also introduced agriculture, writing, and metallurgy.

These are just two examples of many. But, to make this kind of short i’ll get on to the conclusion.

The end of the ice age is the villain when it comes to flooding the lost ancient civilisation. And as of the myth’s told here they make perfect sense when it comes to the time frames we speak of. 

Think of Viracocha and the seven sages as survivors or settlers from the lost civilisation.

Think of the ancient sites in Egypt and mesoamerica (and many other sites)as a heritage and resettlements from the lost world. Do that, and it suddenly makes sense that these ancient sites have a very striking resemblance in culture, religion and architecture. It kind of seems as if they had the same teachers…?

As proof of ice age flooding we have this very interesting site of underwater ruins by the little Japanese island Yonaguni, outside the east coast of Taiwan. Amazing to say at least.

I’ll stop here for now. Dig deeper and keep an open mind.

Just some goodies to gaze upon.

Got a custom job from Germany. Was a while since my last build so i was quite excited to do this machine=)

He wanted a big heavy shader and specifically wanted a satanic cross on the machine. This is how it turned out.

Since it was easter and all i found this machine build quite suitable with it’s little occult twist.

The machine will find it’s new home at Get lucky tattoos in Germany.

Hand made it is!

I really dig these Tourposters, I really enjoy this kind of medium in art. There is so much more to it then just the artist with his pen and paper.
