POST -INDUSTRIAL PSYCHOSIS 

A state of being induced by the contemporary condition of the Industrial Age – itself a disturbing pathology. Post Industrial Psychosis is characterised by a sustained dissociation from the dominant social paradigm normalised by modern industrial society. Post Industrial Psychotics often suffer extreme sensations of alienation and marginalisation from the world in which they live. However, upon determining to embrace their psychosis, sufferers will often experience a breakthrough wherein the greater universal and eternal truths of the cycles of nature and the animal fact of our being are realised and celebrated. A myopic preoccupation with sense of entitlement and concern with capital are replaced with deep acknowledgement of integral responsibility to ones place in the symbiotic schema of chaos and existence.

Post Industrial Psychosis can be characterised by some or all of the following: suddenly quitting a stable job to explore the creative self; leaving a known and established home to live in a place where the language and people are foreign to the world you once knew; a burning desire to grow your own vegies and feed the ones you love; embracing the medicines of nature and other cultures; a thirst for intoxication and at times dependence on state-altering substances; conversely, a determination to live as cleanly and with as much clarity and grounding as possible; uncharacteristic adventures to foreign countries; impulsive bouts of political action and interest; opening one's heart to spiritual ways and waves; adamant desire to locate purpose and path; overwhelming obsession with the potential of community; conscious nurturing of the creative mind; self-responsibility for the impact of one's formative years and ancestral baggage; uncanny experience of synchronicity in daily life; refining one's relationship with instinct; celebration of movement...

"Maybe your suffering from Post -Industrial Psychosis?"
"I think my daughter is showing symptoms of Post -Industrial Psychosis."
"The womens post-industrial psychosis began to filter into her every moment of every day; until one day; she impulsively quit her job as a bank teller and decided to travel the world in search of her ancestors and her purpose."

post-industrial wasteland 

Kaiserslautern, Germany

Yeah, I grew up in Europe. Unfortunately, Kaiserslautern is the German version of Pittsburgh or Detroit; absolute post-industrial wasteland. I can see jobs dying when I walk down the street.

Post industrial barbarian 

Most of the people in the world today. one of there main traits is the love of money and valuing it over people. one of there slogans is "money talks". Also antilove laws is another trait.There is one group of post industrial barbarians who think the world is only six thousand years old and was made by "magic" in just six 24 hour days. Most of them think only about there own damn selves and leave it to other people tob care for the homeless,starving people in the third world ect. when they do find time to think about it.

Where can I go to get away from there post industrial barbarians?

Post-Industrial Pioneer 

Someone who "goes back to the land" after the industrial period. A homesteader in today's society.

Watch the documentary 'Urban Roots' for the best examples. Similar movement in Flint, Michigan called "Flintopia."

Guy: "Why would you move to Flint, Michigan?

Other Guy: "To take back the land, I'm a PIP."

Guy: "A PIP?"

Other Guy: "Yea, a Post-Industrial Pioneer."
