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...
