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...
