Russet Noon: The Apple of Knowledge or the Forbidden Fruit?

It appears that Twilight fans are not alone in having taken a bite out of the apple of knowledge. Now bloggers, fandom wankers, authors and Hollywood screenwriters have joined in their cause. Does this spell the birth of a new artistic movement?

Russet Noon: Tribute Sequel to the Twilight Saga

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release)Apr 15, 2009 – Writers and readers all over the net have opened their eyes to the truth: authors sell their fanfiction and get away with it.  Sure, published authors play a safe game around copyright laws and change the names and circumstances of their characters around just enough to claim they've created a new character.  Yet, in the end, every single author out there weaves their stories around archetypes that have existed since humans started telling stories in caves and around fires.

Ask anyone in Hollywood.  Every story you see in movies and books is a recycled formula where authors merely plug in characters with different identities and histories.  No author truly creates characters.  The characters already exist in the archetypal world that Jung, Freud and Joseph Campbell have described in their books.  The author is a medium who channels these characters.  The origin of all characters is the Shared Mind, the only mind that truly exists.  Our minds are all one single ocean of shared memories, fantasies, dreams, nightmares and visions.

Just to name a few contemporary instances, characters like Edward Cullen, Jacob Black, Harry Potter and Anakin Skywalker are universal archetypes that get recycled by authors over and over again with just a few variations here and there.  Such characters are far from being unique creations, since they share many traits with other literary portrayals from the past.  They are just reincarnated versions of characters that conquered previous generations.  In other words, there is an Edward Cullen for every generation, and this doesn't mean that the author who recycled him is a thief.  

Laws that attempt to privatize the ownership of characters operate based on a delusion of separateness that we all share in this matrix we call reality.  But according to Eckart Tolle, author of The Power of Now, there is no such a thing as separate minds.  There is only one Universal Mind and it is the source of all our thoughts.

While this concept used to be considered an occult truth back in more conservative times, today it is a widespread awareness.  This is the reason why modern science, especially the field of quantum physics, has started to accept the possibility of telepathy, clairvoyance and remote viewing.

We all share in this Universal Mind.  Fictional characters have their origin in this shared mind.  There is no such a thing as the author's individual mind.  The individual mind is an ego creation.  The ego is the one who fights for self preservation, that's why we feel like we have to compete against one another for survival.

The mind of authors is the same as ours.  We have access to the same mind as the Hollywood giants do.  Every universe or, to put it in more commercial terms, franchise, feeds off our fantasies, dreams and hard earned dollars.  When we give life to a universe, when we become its fans and financial supporters, we become the human batteries that keep its matrix alive.

For as long as our minds are enslaved by the belief that the archetypal world can be commercialized, we are the victims of a lie, a smokescreen, an ideology, a matrix.  We must free our minds from this lie.  Characters don't belong to authors.  Authors don't create characters.  They merely channel them.  Characters are recurring universal archetypes.  The only thing that changes is their names and identities, but their essence is always the same.

Authors write fanfiction and sell it all the time.  They just change the identities of the characters to protect themselves from lawsuits.  Unfortunately, when an author is honest about their unconventional views about fanfiction, they get called a "thief" and their ethical values come under attack.  The only problem with this self-righteous, judgmental thinking is: How can you steal something that's already yours?
