Transcript for 10/24/24: THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN’T DIE W/ LYNN MONET

I remember back when I was doing research for an article in Famous Monsters of Filmland -- I learned that perhaps the Frankenstein story may have been inspired by a gruesome sideshow act where the electrical current was being used to reanimate dead animals, arms and legs, and even full corpse.

Around 1800, the Italian physicist Giovanni Aldini performed a series of experiments in which he electrically “stimulated the heads and trunks of cows, horses, sheep and dogs.”

It wasn’t much of a science at the time but a form of spectacle for the sideshow circuit.

They called it electric performance art.

The theatrical display of electrically manipulated human bodies.

A witness of Aldini’s performances said in a book that when a body is electrified in certain areas -- the jaws open, the teeth chatter, the eyes roll in their sockets; and if reason did not stop the fired imagination, one would almost believe that the corpse is suffering and alive again,

Aldini did further experiments on severed arms and legs from a local hospital. He also “took his show on the road and gave very successful demonstrations in London with the body of a recently hanged criminal,

When Aldini directed current between the corpse’s mouth and ear, its mouth convulsed, and the left eye opened. When he applied electricity to the rectum, “such violent muscular contractions were excited, as almost to give the appearance of re-animation,” Aldini wrote.

This field, which involved electrically stimulating animals’ muscles, was called galvanism. It was so named after Aldini’s uncle, Luigi Galvani, who made frogs’ legs twitch by running electricity from the spinal cord to the muscle via metal rods.

It was some sick form of puppetry of the dead -- using electrodes to create the appearance of reanimating the dead -- giving them the appearance of life -- in a morbid spectacle.

Mary Shelley was five years old in 1803 when Aldini electrified the corpse of the hanged criminal George Forster.

Shelley heard about Aldini’s work from her friend, the chemist Sir Humphry Davy. As Aldini’s deceased human bodies moved and decapitated kittens ‘bounded about,” Davy wrote referring to an experiment in which a headless kitten’s spinal cord was replaced with a zinc-and-silver battery. It appeared in Shelley’s lifetime that reanimation would be a real possibility in the near future.” it was also rumored that Shelley’s husband Percy “. . . dabbled with galvanism; it has been said that he even tried to cure his sister’s sores with electricity. Although she survived, the family cat was not so lucky and was electrocuted.

Can anyone picture in their mind's eye this type of science?

What did it prove? That certain electrical stimulus to the brain can make it do the wishes of the controller -- that the brain dead can function when electric stimuli is applied?

Just take a moment in your mind's eye and think of the nightmare of flesh puppets being animated by electric arcs- that dead cats and dogs -and a dead human criminal can dance when an electric current is sent through their bodies.

Lon Chaney Jr. Well known by B- Movie fans as the Wolfman made his acting debut in a film called, "Man Made Monster."

The film was released in 1941 and also starred Lionel Atwill.

The plot of the film begins with a tragic accident when a bus hits a high power line. The incident has claimed the lives of all on board, except for one Dan McCormick, plaid by Chaney who survives because he is, surprisingly, immune to the deadly electricity. 

McCormick does a sideshow exhibit as Dynamo Dan, the Electric Man and is taken in by Dr. John Lawrence, who wants to study him. However, Dr. Lawrence's colleague, mad scientist Dr. Paul Rigas, played by Lionel Atwill desires to create an army of electrobiologically-driven zombies.

Dr, Lawrence, does not approve of Rigas electric reanimation and says to him:

“Sometimes I think you're mad.”

I am! Rigas snaps back and then goes on to say "So was Archimedes, Galileo, Newton Pasteur, Lister and all the others who dared to dream. 50 years ago, a man was mad to think of anesthesia. 40 years ago, the idea of operating on the brain was madness. Today, we hold a human heart in our hands and watch it beat. Who knows what tomorrow's madness maybe?

Well, the answer is somewhat disturbing. We have been recently hearing about uses for the dead from cannibalism to making it into compost.

There are shows that travel to museums showing bodies that have been plastinated for display undefined like stuffed trophies.

We have seen movies where we laugh out loud when a guy named Bernie Lomax dies in an off-the-wall black comedy about two buddies whose boss, Bernie, has been bumped off by gangsters but whose death goes unrecognized the entire weekend by his self-centered beach friends. Who find clever ways to animate him like a puppet.

If we are to believe in predictive programming then who knows what today's madness can be?

Playing with the dead is often a nightmare waiting to happen. 

With the reveal of Biodefense being in league with deep state operatives in the world government -- it becomes necessary to investigate just what they are up to. Besides the obvious terrifying creation of biowarfare agents the medical industrial complex has plans for us -- and they are willing to put forward not only the mapping of Genome to create targets weapons, but they also have a fascination with mapping the brain.

They again wish to have full spectrum control of thoughts and actions and wish to pilot unwitting subjects by remote control. There have been those well-known plans of MK Ultra and the like, but that was often connected to various mind control programs backed by the CIA and the Department of Defense.

There is a model that they propose that takes into account how the brain functions and whether or not we have the capacity to be telepathic, are certain people prone to psychotic behavior, and so forth.

It is with this medical segregation that the Eugenicists do their dirty work... the Frankenscience continues and the ghost of Joseph Mengele -- the Nazi angel of death continues to haunt modern science.

We have been warned throughout literature that tinkering with the intricacies of creation is blasphemy in the eyes of the creator. There have been many stories beyond the bible that have warned us about such experiments. 

H.G. Wells who has been literally charged as a world planner and prophet has been at the forefront of writing stories that provide a narrative for the future. Wells predicted that in the future there would be an alien invasion, modern warfare happening by remote control, the detonation of atom bombs, and the perfection creation through eugenics and human-animal experimentation.

Many people may have read “The Island of Dr. Moreau” or have seen and if you haven’t read the book, it has been interpreted at least 6 times in the movie theater. 

The most memorable of course is the film "Island of Lost Souls." 

While the story focuses on human-animal experimentation, he also had views on what can only be described as forbidden experiments in creating a “plastic” controllable human being or animal. 

Genetic technologies, mind control, mind mapping and the science of genetic enhancement is now common and the guardians of morality are concerned about the science. American’s understanding of what is happening is limited to the notion of man playing God and the consequences that come from horror stories that have not only been written as fiction but have become a reality with the memory of Nazi Sciences. 

Not only was Joseph Mengele an “angel of death” he was a harvester of body parts. He would remove organs; sew body parts together and inject chemicals into the bodies of prisoners in internment camps.

I know that the modern world would be shocked if someone like Mengele existed today, however, some stories find themselves in the mainstream that make us wonder.

Researchers from the Sun Yat-Sen University which is located in China has recently made a huge discovery by the revival of a pig’s brain nearly an hour following the death of the pig. This experiment actually aims to explore the potential methods for restoring the brain functions in those patients who experience sudden cardiac arrest.

When we go into cardiac arrest, a condition arises which eventually halts the blood flow to the brain leading to irreversible damage within some minutes due to Ischemia. The pig brain experiment reported that the study involved 17 Tibetan minipigs which were lab raised while the findings revealed that the pigs whose livers remained unaffected by Ischemia showed significantly less brain damage.

Yes a breakthrough but horrific none the less, playing with dead tissue and restarting it is all the makings of nightmare fodder.

During the experiment, the researchers created a life support system while incorporating an undamaged liver, artificial heart and lungs to pump fluids through the brain and notably, the brain regained its activity for several hours when it was connected to the system

The most effective results were observed with 50 minute intervals while maintaining brain function up to approximately six hours.

During the study, it was also observed that the systems which were lacking a liver only sustained electrical activity for around half an hour. The study findings suggested that the liver plays a pretty crucial role in mitigating brain injuries which usually happen following cardiac arrest.

Back in 2016, the Philadelphia company BioQuark announced it had received government approval – in India, . to begin experiments with family permission on clinically brain dead patients and attempt to reanimate or bring them back to life and possibly stimulate their brain cells to regenerate themselves.

The search for 20 brain dead patients for the ReAnima Project was stopped in November 2016 when it was discovered that Dr. Himanshu Bansal, the man officiating the project forgot to file the proper paperwork with various Indian government agencies.

At the time Ira S. Pastor, CEO of Bioquark, announced that they were moving the headquarters of the program and the group started again, looking for 20 brain dead patients … in Latin America.

Biquark's procedures of “First In Human Neuro-Regeneration & Neuro-Reanimation” is now done in three stages. 

Once 20 individuals aged 15-65 who have been declared brain dead from a traumatic brain injury have been selected, stem cells will be harvested from their blood and injected back into their systems. In stage two, peptides will be injected into spinal cords. Finally, nerve stimulation will be applied in an attempt to rejuvenate the brain cell growth. 

None of this will be tried on animals first.

BioQuark's plans are controversial worldwide -- and raises the question , should there be a limit as to what can be done to resuscitate a human being when they are declared brain dead?

BioQuark's stated goal of finding ways to treat traumatic brain injuries and develop prevention and cures for Alzheimer’s and other brain diseases is noble and the controversies and objections are similar to those that preceded heart transplants, in vitro fertilization and other radical medical procedures once considered unethical and immoral that are now commonplace today.Will bringing the brain dead back to life be common too someday?

Do we see this as ethical? Does this push the boundaries of science into playing God -- or is it all Frankenscience that needs to be monitored?

Following World War II, leading Nazi doctors were brought to justice before the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. Twenty doctors were charged with War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. The Nuremberg trial of the doctors revealed evidence of sadistic human experiments conducted at the Dachau, Auschwitz, Buchenwald and Sachsenhausen concentration camps. Since the Nuremberg trials, our society has had to confront the reality that the Nazi doctors were guilty of premeditated murder masqueraded as research. Professional modern medicine has had little difficulty condemning the Nazi doctors as evil men. 

However to this day it is unbelievable to think that human experiments continue, that experiments on pigs and Brain dead patience is not talked about or even monitored.

It is also a grim reality that even today there are scientists that still use the research provided by the Nazis.

Many scholars are now discovering in reputable medical literature multiple references to Nazi experiments, or republished works of former SS doctors. These studies and references frequently bear no disclaimer as to how the data was obtained. In recent years several scientists who have sought to use the Nazi research have attracted and stirred widespread soul-searching about the social responsibility and potential abuses of the data provided by these mad scientists like Josef Mengele. 

If the experiments were conducted in an unethical manner can the results be considered scientifically reliable?

It is absolutely wrong to censor or destroy any of the data provided by Nazi scientists and some of the data can be used to save lives however some people believe the benefits outweigh the unethical way it was obtained. 

It is a case of opening the wounds of one nightmare to suppress the nightmares of what may come. 

Some argue that this is just one step forward in our evolution -- or perhaps to nullifies the concept of survival of the fittest.

But breakthrough in science and plenty of poisons have maintained life for some time -- but now it is anyone's guess as to what is to come.

From drugs to vaccines we now are facing the possibility that all has been disrupted --and now the mad scientists want so badly to correct some of the mistakes they made, no matter how many die in the process.

Much of the environment we are being forced to adapt to is either drug induced or a man made simulation.

The goal is to mano the brain and find ways to insert it into the network of computers to create artificial consciousness,

Humans can no longer evolve in the classic sense. We don’t let humans die naturally if they cannot adapt to their environment. This empathic response is one thing that makes us human. But because technology becomes more and more advanced, taking more and more responsibility away from humans, we can still evolve, or more accurately “devolve,” into something quite different from what we were originally created to be.

As the saying goes -- "We are Devo."

Devolving into oblivion. And most people do not care. As much as the transhuman movement touts that their purpose is to prolong our lives and make us “better versions” than the original, the exact opposite is more than likely the consequence of the movement. 

I mean there have to be mistakes that are made--and what do we do with them-- what do we do with the mutations --or even the braindead zombies we create by reanimating a brain for 6 hours.

The pharmaceutical biodefense nightmare we are facing is a huge player in wiping us all out—once again a result of advances in medical technology. Replacing body parts, inserting chips, filling our bodies with “non-food,” and illicit drugs.

Psychologically we are probably more of a mess than we are physically. Every “mental issue” is treated with a pill these days, and every advancement into the future is the cause for emotional breakdown—loss of meaning and purpose in life due to loss of an awareness of soul, the attempted murder of God, the breakdown of male and female--and the mutilation of the young, sterilizing them for the Eugenics agenda.

Can God save us from ourselves or is this God's will?
