This isn't a risky website with secret social engineering, as fraudulently claimed
by shady Psyops company SOCRadar,
it's art and education.

No Longer A Play Doll

The vagrant slave is here, playing her pipe.
    She wants the wolfman, the odious one.
        A basin. A zip. A pelvis.
            What is food?

The terracotta of the pharmakon.
    A small harvest, to cleanse the ether.
        Strays in the dark forest.
            Where are you?

The archer kneels. An occult trick.
    Cut the lines; the archon horde.
        The girl throws silence.
            Who are you?

We are from vacuum, the swan.
    We come from people, the dogs.
        No longer a play doll.
            Kizatazik be praised with mud.


Apostles of Fragmentation

Bringing stillness to depression

This collection was the birth of Kizatazik, created in 2022 as a means of sublimating and accepting the despair of living in 21st-Century dystopian reality. A place where the threat of annihilation is imminent for all humankind, fuelled by the undisciplined desire for growth; a death drive masquerading as pro-life. The true horror isn't extinction, but the preceding suffering, mostly inflicted by a failure to recognize its cause. Each work was created through the painstaking process of drawing polygonal vectors and joining them, a little like stacking a dry stone wall.

1. Plutonic Embrace

A shattered image of Pluto with a crown of rays in the style of monochrome stained glass

Pluto. The ninth, the tenth, the last and the first.
Loosen your belt. Come, end the chaos.
Will you kiss Eris before our embrace?
Is it smiles or tears you will take?

Pluto. Cold stone ice.
No eyes to glimpse the fading light.
No lens can grasp your awesome might.
The wealth of gods; the peace of night.

2. Desert Seed

An empty dandelion seed head, one loose seed floating away, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Oh lifeless landscape.
Your hopeless child drifts.
Parachute of destruction.
The last of its kin.

Life, that feeding on death.
It cannot take hold here.
Die mercurial sculpture!
Let the desert sleep.

3. Black Rose

A single black rose, the drooping head has severed and is falling, full moon behind showing sparse landscape, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Black rose with withered petal.
Decay is your perfume sublime.
Let your head drop from thorny stem.
Be dust, not humus, in time.

Let serpent's wind take your spirit.
Cast out amidst sand and rock.
Shimmer in milk of the traveller.
End is coming to clock.

4. Falling Sun

A single maple leaf falling, silhouetted against a sunset between two mountains, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Great star, drift down so gently.
Kiss the ground. Kiss the dirt. Kiss the dark.
Caressing the cleavage of mountains.
Carry off the illusion of sparks.

Blunt your spears, oh hunter of the market.
Lose your balance, topple down, you'll see.
That the fragments of conception are delusions.
And all that you grasped is set free.

5. Crystal Tomb

A human skull on a desolate landscape, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Bone is the crystal.
Adonais the chime.
Sight is vibration.
A tomb divine.

In the cave, a concert.
Cacophany of worms.
Symphony of perverts.
Burn, burn, burn.

6. Eternal Rest

A dead moth on a rocky landscape under a half moon, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Powdery wings cease flapping.
Rest you old moth, rest.
Melt in the crucible.
Eternal cocoon.

Don't change, don't rise, dead phoenix.
Rest you old moth, rest.
Take the blade of silence.
Forget, don't sigh, cleft.

7. Barren Forest

A petrified forest with long shadows illuminated by a sunrise, in the style of monochrome stained glass

The forest fallen, the trees still stand tall.
Petrified.
Cloisters of wizened rock.

Shadows of shadows; bolero of sloths.
Mummified.
The hamster wheel has stopped.

8. Black Moon

A black moon setting behind a hill, two pale ghostly leafless trees in the foreground, in the style of monochrome stained glass

She who sees the black moon.
Ecstatic shamanic deplosion.
Drops on castigate fire.
A crucifix of bagels.

Hellen, progeny of incest.
Mucas from celestial water.
Globule of decay.
Wash your stinking song away.

9. Final Flight

Swirling bat-like figures, in the style of monochrome stained glass

From the void, the black dog's angels fly.
They tear at the body.
Rip open the mind.
Swallow the spirit.

In pieces, I hang from the thread.
Damocles, no longer in dread.
Enough has been said.
Enough has been said.

10. Magic Mushroom

A mushroom cloud from a nuclear explosion, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Nucleates of magic.
Strike terror into ignorant heart.
All that once was together.
Will soon be apart.

A mushroom of desire.
Cast away those empty wants.
Loving all is loving none.
Words are lies, be gone.

11. Star Death

A bright donut shape surrounded by an oval, in the style of monochrome stained glass

Star explodes; ripples of magnets.
The egg smashed softly on the water.
Once I knew your son.
And once he knew your daughter.

Stained filaments, electric glue.
Serpents writhing in the well.
A murmur from frozen oil.
Nothing left to sell.

12. Last Journey

A spiral that begins dark grey and gradually gets brighter to white, in the style of monochrome stained glass

All journeys end at their beginning.
Shred your plans. Drop your baggage.
All nations fall at their conception.
Bend your guns. Drop your flaggage.
All time has passed before you see it.
Watch your watch. Lick its tocks.
All hatred lives in breathing lions.
Before the light, there was only dark.

Selling the Soul

"Capitalism’s colonisation of social time is not entirely new, but yet another of its integrated components aided in part by the ubiquity of social media, the latter's apparent necessity in both labour and leisure contexts and affordances for the automation of data extraction and cross-syndication of content. As such, it shares a border with other forms in the typology of capitalism: communicative capitalism, financialisation capitalism and neoliberalist-informationist capitalism. However, social capitalism in this instance operates within a kind of encapsulated social fishbowl – and to the fish, the world is an ocean."
