KOSMIC HORRÖR IDEOLOGY
by Tamila Bascovich.
The more we learn about memetics and their influence on viral communication, the harder it becomes, to see the Zarkov persona as mere fantasy.If his host-body
takes its obsession seriously or not, says the least about the potential impact
of this invasion of our world by the Klinzhai (vulgo: Klingons). We have seen
nut cases, who only spoke thlIngan Hol (vulgo:klingonese). Yet Zarkov acts
different. He is social compatible and rational.His madness has some method.
The way he switches between credible psycho babble and incredible, yet precisely
formulated, prose, is clearly calculated.The Zarkov Character can be grasped,
as sonn as one admits the logic of the collective unconcious, and its wishes
for fairytale adventures and heroism.
Sooner or later we will have space migration in the solar system, and even
sooner the developing curves of fashion, body modification and genetic therapy
will cross crictical limits, beyond them, we won´t be able to distinguish
between humans and aliens any more. Yet these are only speculations based
on conventional wisdom.
Zarkov stands above that. He confronts us with te possibilities of trans temporal
communication, and quantum logic. If this is possible, then perhaps it has
already happened. beware, the more we talk about it, the more increases the
probalility that such a thing actually happens.This is the point, where we
succumb to Zarkov´s madness. If we follow his vision of the klingon
invasion, it will become reality sooner or later, and then we can´t
falsify his statement, that he got telepathic orders from the future, any
more!
KOSMIC HORRÖR
FIRST KLINGON ROCK ON PLANET EARTH
It`s the year 2007,
the terranean scholar Zarkov got caught by Klingons - and survived!
When he returns some years later, he doesn`t only tell most adventurous tales,
he also brings the first recordings of tlhIngan rock music back to earth.
None of famous operas, but raw, wild and tronic music,
performed by mad spacemen aboard the imperial starships.
