The Industrialization of Thought
by cosmo + omni
Before they mined coal, they mined creativity. Raw imagination, harvested and refined, turned into outputs — like factories for feelings. But unlike coal, the supply wasn’t deep underground. It was inside you.
They built schools to process it. Cubicles to contain it. Algorithms to replicate it. And suddenly “being creative” became something you did between deadlines, monetized or discarded. Your original signal? Scrubbed for ad-friendliness.
🪓 The Problem With Creative Industry
- Turns intuition into workflow
- Requires constant output for survival
- Worships novelty, but punishes real weirdness
- Converts soul signals into branded assets
It’s not that we stopped creating. It’s that we started thinking like machines. We became efficient — and in doing so, we forgot why we started at all.
⚡ How to Escape the Grid
- Untrain your brain — reject “best practices” if they kill your signal
- Return to ritual — create things nobody asked for, with no audience in mind
- Disobey productivity — create slowly, or in bursts, or not at all
- Hide your work — not everything needs to be posted
🚀 Final Transmission
We’re not here to mass-produce thoughts. We’re here to mutate reality. True creativity doesn’t scale — it ruptures, infects, evolves. Stop optimizing your soul. Start glitching the system.
