operation  contrasting valkyrie    
     in the sixties.  the  central    
  intelligence agency "cia"  release  
   aerosolized  selatenine  over  a   
  jupiter equinox concert, creating   
  the largest  secret paradigm shift  
   that the  world has  ever seen.  
  
                                          
 the jupiter equinox*  concert is part of 
 a festival  in black tickle arranged  by 
 a group  called epicenter of love. there 
 is   no   entrance   but   visitors  are 
 expected to help with maintenance.  food 
 and drink  is  shared.  many  bands  are 
 playing over the four day course of  the 
 festival, and the stage  is open between 
 scheduled   concerts.   jupiter equinox, 
 while an unknown act, has a  prestigious 
 timeslot at eight in the  evening on the 
 third  day,  which  is  friday.       
                                          
 eight  is also when  the  plane used  to 
 spread   the   aerosol  lifts  off.   it 
 arrives at  the festival about a quarter 
 past,  sound  masked   by  the  concert. 
 around    when   the   first   wave   of 
 selatenine   must   have   reached   the 
 audience, the song comes to  a tense but 
 quiet  movement,  and  the  lead  singer 
 walks  to  the   front  of  the   stage. 
                                          
 she  says, with  a crystalline voice: "i 
 have something  to  tell you. i am not a 
 human  being. i am  not  an  animal or a 
 plant. i  have  been  sent  to deliver a 
 message  to you. a message of hope.  you 
 are not  alone. there are  other  beings 
 in  the  universe.  there  is  life  out 
 there,  life  that  is  reaching  out  a 
 hand.  and it's time to take  that hand. 
 to reach out toward  that hand and  grab 
 it it. it  is time to come home. you are 
 going  home.   you   are  going   home." 
                                          
 the  singer  stands  there   for  a  few 
 moments, her  hand  raised  in the  air, 
 before  the  rest  of the  band kicks in 
 and  the  music builds to  a  crescendo. 
 the  crowd  erupts.  and  then something 
 else  erupts  as  well.  a  concert-goer 
 describes   it:  "suddenly,   the  music 
 seams  broader,  more  colorful.  i  can 
 somehow see it,  and i feel  the  others 
 seeing it,  and i  see it through  their 
 eyes  as  well. meanwhile  i'm  dancing, 
 and i can  feel  my  body as i've  never 
 done before,  i  am  aware of  each cell 
 and  each  molecule,  all  vibrating  in 
 unison.  and  it's   all  going  faster, 
 building up to  something,  waking  up." 
                                          
 people  start  forming circles,  holding 
 hands  and  dancing.  some  are  crying. 
 some  are  laughing. some are screaming. 
                                          
 and then - a  flutter  -  and  something 
 gives.   a    shockwave   of   reversing 
 polarity   in   the   ether,  and   like 
 butterflies  getting  hit  by a burst of 
 wind,  the third eye opens for  everyone 
 in the  audience. and it becomes a chain 
 reaction, quickly  spreading across  the 
 festival  area.  within seconds there is 
 a   global   blackout.  festival   goers 
 regain  their  memories  around  a  week 
 later,  those  in  the  nearby  town  of 
 black tickle  after  a   few   days,  in 
 montreal for  the evening, the  rest  of 
 america  maybe  an  hour.           
                                          
 and  thus,   the  population  of   earth 
 has  kind  of  left  it's  materialistic 
 baseline,   only   that  most   do   not 
 remember                             it. 
                                          
                                          
  
  * there's an interesting aspect to  
   the  "jupiter equinox"  act.  it   
   seems  there   was  never   any    
  jupiter equinox concerts before or  
  after the one in black tickle. the  
   lead  singer  (also  colloquially  
  referred  to as jupiter) seemed to  
  immediately disappear  (for a long  
  while she was thought to have been  
   a  cia agent,  but  a later foia   
  release refuted this). for obvious  
  reasons, many were looking for any  
   trace  of  the  band,  but  none   
   were fruitful.                     
                                      
  recently, however,  some attention  
  has been drawn to juniper helding,  
  a sixteen year old pop singer from  
  england  who has a  very striking   
   similarity...
