ideas happen faster than the speed of light..

creativity...

as the years pass and the new millennium approaches, fast and vibrant like a new horizon on the peak of shining at us.. ideas and dreams are being ignored with the ever pressing objective of today's societies for "progress". It's obnoxious injection of the "competitive nature" has come to pass as being recognized as "normal" and is passed from one generation to the next as if nothing was wrong. It imposes the ideal that one should live life under the guise of "being better than everyone else". This condition is flawless in constructing a society of followers, & non-thinking over-achievers, who will at any moment become ruthless and cunning if it will suit their needs. Strong warriors are being developed with this formula...but warriors to war with what? and whom? Now, this is not to say that development of ones individual power and strength is a BAD thing.. in fact, quite the opposite... but it is not the ONLY thing.. there is more to the strengthening of a powerful person than just being "the winner"... it comes from understanding and realizing the beauty of experience and the vividness of it's face.. to have the ability to imagine and believe in that which you have imagined.. not with the concept of "striking it rich" but more with the ideal that "i did this" and feeling pride for your own work and craftsmanship.. the natural "creative nature" of our race that is being shunned in the modern way of life. Creativity is the oldest known belief, according to all known myths. It is that in which the GODS themselves believed in. It is the purest essence of that which empowered those very gods to BE what and who they were (and are). In light of this, you would think there would be an over emphasis on CREATIVE thinking in our societies, but there is not. This needs to change if our world is to progress into the new aeon with any hope of survival. It is the obvious missing factor in the industrial minded world in which we live today.

Thee Instagon Foundation (TIF) formed in 1993 with the mission of being a creative alliance of artists working together to enrich the planet with a more creative way of thinking... to share ideals and projects, to work with each other in our artistic approach to the interweaving of our art into the monster of the media, and its audience. We believe in the power of creativity, and it's divinity. Each individual is an artist, strong and wise in their craft.. TIF attempts to create forums in which individuals can interact with and experiment in, so that they might find their unknown hidden talent and nurture it into a power and strength, some are creative sculptures or musicians, others creative in their methods of banking or teaching. This is the way of the future for a strong society to exist. We must take wild notions into consideration, as they are usually very powerful and right on the nose of the problem. Ideas happen faster than the speed of light. Thee Instagon Foundation wants you to let your ideas shine.. we encourage and want to attempt to direct all interested parties in directions that may lead to the development of their individual creative dreams and visions. We support all who come to become involved and show a strong will to help us in this dream. TIF, so far, with VERY little funding, has created many outlets for artists to create in. We have our own record label; with decent international distribution, a publishing firm for small books, a free open submission magazine called "THEE NEVERENDING PAGE", published bi-annually, sponsored local poetry readings and spoken word events, a web site, radio programs, performance art, and the list continues... in 1994 TIF joined forces with its long time ally THEE TEMPLE OV PSYCHICK YOUTH NA, and released the debut full length experimental CD from "INSTAGON", which has gained some wonderful reviews world wide. TOPY and TIF are still very interactive today with many projects in the works. In 1995 TIF joined the amazing world of A.I.N., the Autonomous Individuals Network, an international directory for interesting projects happening world wide, TIF serves as the "official" (whatever that is) node of A.I.N. in the USA. We produce and distribute this directory in this country. If you feel that this is something you are akin to, we would love to hear from you.. but we are poor, we are artists, so please include return postage, or you will probably not be answered for a long time, you will be answered.. but it might take awhile. (circa 1995)
