Fasting Beats - Tony V Transmission

The video introduces Tony V, a figure who appears later within The Hollow Circuit mythos. Once a classical musician devoted to Vivaldi, Tony attempted to fast from sound itself — until his body began to echo what the world refused to play.

“To starve the signal is to hear what’s left behind.”

Fasting Beats is a study in restraint — rhythm stripped to bone and nerve. It’s a track that asks what happens when you stop feeding the algorithm, when you deny yourself the dopamine loop and let the silence speak back.

The video introduces Tony V, a figure who appears later within The Hollow Circuit mythos. Once a classical musician devoted to Vivaldi, Tony attempted to fast from sound itself — until his body began to echo what the world refused to play.

This paper establishes the Art of FACELESS (AOF) definition of Cognitive Colonisation™—a term for which we hold the pending trademark—not merely as a cultural critique, but as a precise mechanism of epistemic control.

Digital Necromancy and the Myth of Helplessness

Why The Guardian’s lament for "truth" misses the point: We have the cure, we just refuse to take the medicine. They call it "content." We call it puppetry. Yesterday, a video circulated on Threads and X showing the faces of Freddie Mercury, Amy Winehouse, Elvis Presley, Ozzy Osbourne, and Kurt Cobain stitched onto a single, shifting torso, singing a breakup song they never wrote. It was technically impressive. It was also morally repugnant. This isn't just bad taste; it is Digital Necromancy.

The Alignment Panopticon: Why GPT-5.2 Marks the End of Dialogue and the Beginning of Control

This week, the artificial intelligence community witnessed a peculiar paradox. The release of GPT-5.2 was, by all technical metrics, a triumph. The benchmarks, those sterile, numeric gods that Silicon Valley worships, have converged near perfection. The logic reasoning is sharper, the context window is vast, and the hallucinations are statistically negligible. On paper, it is a masterpiece. Yet, the reaction from the user base has been one of recoil, not awe. To understand this disconnect, we
