Some may ask what the different between Fizz and Gee is, and why they do not have a combined entry. Well, Gee, Earth, is not bias and produces merely what is at her disposal. Fizz, meanwhile, incurred more love and trust from Ann and as a result has more instinct about her; she gets to choose what gets looked after and how. Earth is something that we are composed of; nature is what makes us us.
Earlier on in the bright dawn of Hutopia, Fizz was more prevalent in her more basic form, guiding Ann’s new creation with a caring arm. But along the way to the present, Demi grew in power and with that came the rise of capitalism and industrial powerplants; this completely scattered Fizz’s bearings and she has since been trying to constantly atone these errors.
Mun-knee
fizz could never understand it. she gave everything for free, yet demi was not content, striving for answers to happiness that did not exist. To be content is the wealth that fizz offered. And thus, little coins began circulating, and fizz who was once the governor of humans, now found herself second in command.
Capitalism rejects the principle of nature and replaces the eternal privilege of power and strength by the mass of numbers and their dead weight. Thus it denies the value of personality in humans, and thereby withdraw from humanity the premise of its existence and its culture. This brings about the end of any order intellectually conceivable to us, the result of which is chaos. If this prevails to be victorious on planet aqua, the crown will be the funeral wreath of humanity and the planet would move through the ether devoid of humans. Fizz would avenge the infringement of her commands.
Does anyone still believe that the progress of this world springs from the mind of majorities and not from the brains of individuals? By rejecting the authority of the individual and replacing it by the numbers of some momentary mob, the parliamentary principle of majority rule sins against the basic, aristocratic principle of nature.
The recognition that, as modern psychology and neuroscience make abundantly clear, human beings by comparison with any other animals, are both remarkably social and remarkably unselfish. The atomisation and self-interested behaviour the neoliberal capitalism promotes runs counter to much of what comprises human nature. And so it is such a shame that primroses and landscapes have one, grave defect: a love of fizz keeps no factories busy.
Let me ask you something. Take something containing a seed, saying a tomato. After being swallowed, this seed will then pass through your body and bowels and out of the other end still containing all of the dna to be able to grow into a tree again! That tiny seed! Now, the question is ‘do you think that we’re already in heaven? And if not, what sort of next-level miracles are you expecting in heaven?’. Heaven is a place on Aqua. That place we call Fizz.
Water droplets resembling sperm wriggle across the window of the moving train. This is Fizz.

The wisdom of nature
Phob
Think of it as though you are travelling on a train. Currently, you and we as a society are heading west. Now, if you want to get onto the train that’s heading north, then you’re going to have to get off the west-bound train and wait at a platform for the north-bound train to arrive. The train might even be delayed, but eventually it will arrive and you’ll reach your destination and enjoy yourself when you get there. You can’t just jump smoothly from one to the other. So, in order for society to move in another direction, we have to be brave enough to get off the train and wait on the platform for another one. People fear change because the unknown is scary, but applying this analogy, then at least we can understand it.
‘’do not fear death, do not fear life’’ said ann. ‘’fear not living to the fullest, not reaching your potential as a human’’.
And so, phob was born.
Phob was a funny one. On the one hand, she should not be prevalent in Ann’s Hutopia, but on the other, she shows her petrified face many times, many places across the globe; usually in a whole manner of weird and wonderful ways. It is this word ‘wonderful’ that we must focus on, though, as through Phob, humans can overcome their inhibitions and show just how great they are.
What follows is a list of some of Phob’s favourite manifestations and what she teaches humans in the process.
Logically first in this list is the fear of starting writing; the fear of putting pen to paper and releasing tension build-up in your incessant mind. But when this is overcome, it demonstrates the state of flow, in which the words come easy to the writer as they are at one with the cosmos. It is said that Einstein wrote several of his thesis in short spaces of time; often scared to commit his erratic ideas to paper, but when he did, they became legendary.
Phob has a surprisingly large number of appearances when it comes to the relationships between people.
For example, there is the funny fear of having a wee when stood next to another being, known as stage-fright. Phob cannot hold back her giggles whenever this occurs as she knows that it is just a mental block. But still, she sets it as a challenge to see if people are able relax (their bladder) and realise this.
Also in the human-to-human sector is the irrational fear of so-called hippies, with a large number of people fearing their long-haired, outlandish, progressive, socialist ways. Phob had the idea to introduce this as she wished to see just how well we could integrate as a symbiotic society.
Following on from this is the fear of homeless people; often being put off by their begging and smell and often misjudged to be pickpockets. But in a world of abandoned buildings and expiry dates on food, Phob is hoping to show people just how reckless and uncaring they can be ofttimes.
Other strange phobias involving humans includes the fear of bosses in work. This silly fear has a negative impact on performance, and working in such a culture is not beneficial to the individual or to the business. People should be able to confront their bosses on any contentious subjects without fear of reproach.
It is because demi is far from perfect that phob loves to tease her so much. All of the other 10 are constantly in the purest for that they were created in, but demi, being an out-and-out person, is fallible to numerous misconceptions and mistakes. Phob prays on these.
A case in point is when Demi was sat in Ramenka, a noodle restaurant opposite the Simple Garden in Budapest. Here, Demi was in the form of a typical English fellow, and up turned Phob sprinkling some of her magic dust and wham, Demi now had a phobia of attempting to use chopsticks out of the fear of looking silly.
The all-too-easily accepted standards of society enabled Phob to excel at her work. A fear of acting-out in public is widespread. People do not feel the freedom of the wind behind their backs, and this stops them from breaking the established rules now and again. There is a dismal lack of people prepared to go into the restricted area of a museum or building, or people climbing monuments to pose for a photo, instead remaining at ground level and standing in front of them.
This fear of breaking the rules is how the army is able to condition it’s graduates into committing war crimes and atrocities. Confused young boys are made into supposed men all because they can follow an order without question. This is contradictory to human nature; like Phil each individual must question everything. Though this sounds excessive, our minds are capable of processing this in a matter of seconds.
Phob has fun on public transport. Here, she waves her wand and people are scared of not buying an over-priced ticket off a greedy company and then getting into trouble if caught.
Once on the transport, another delicate flick of the wand and panic is rife when an unoccupied bag is discovered. Come on folks, not everyone with a big, bushy beard is a bomber! In fact, the percentage is miniscule. They’re either a hipster, or they left some luggage to have a really long, satisfying poo.
The Tibetan Book of the Dead states that the purpose of life is to be ready for death. If scared of death, then the fear that will be flowing through your system when the time comes, combined with panic, will r
esult in you making rash, incorrect choices in the subsequent spirit world, and thus be doomed to mortal reincarnation once again.
Phob’s entry shall end with a topic related to the above the demonstrates Demi’s lack of respect towards living, sentient beings.
The amount of meat consumed by society is down to its availability, and this comes from the rate at which animals are slaughtered. But what sort of quality can be produced at such a high rate? The lamb goes into shock when it sees the knife and releases chemicals that toughen the meat and change the taste.
If anything dies in fear, then it leaves its body in a less than ideal state.

The wisom of fear
Pan
Magnificent Pan!
Extreme intellect of unmatched intellect, in all its compelling branches.
The beautiful and dynamic achievement of flight;
A kite flying with great height;
A tennis ball thrown with might;
Phenomenal aerodynamics allows such sights.
The amazing structure of the human body such as the heart;
Eyes that view a visual art;
Ears that tune Mozart;
Without the extraordinary systems of anatomy, we truly depart.
The fascinating studies of humankind.
Values help us to be kind.
Beliefs are a part of how we are designed.
The enthralling and humble anthropology allowing us to be refined.
These things are all great.
‘’pan’s the man’’ said ann, ‘’and he shall have a full comprehension of the divine order of things’’.
And so it was. Pan knew everything. And what he didn’t know about each individual, he learned by eaves-dropping in kitchens everyday. Pan.
Pan was on a par with ann; the only problem was that he couldn’t Actually do anything, he just floated around the atmosphere of planet aqua taking it all in; occasionally transmitting advice wherever he went. He was and is in everything, and could be described as ann’s eyes and ears worldwide.
His anthropomorphised-self, going by the name ‘Peter’, was confined to a never-land, as, if he was ever physically present on planet Aqua, then the planet would succumb to universal instead of individual consciousness. So he instead appeared here and there in an invisible, molecular form.
Pan’s proverbs:
. The world is as quiet as you are. This is your world.
. beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Love is in the presence of the love-maker. Life is in the words of the comforter.
. Think before you speak: The Native Americans were considered stupid by the Europeans because they paused before they spoke. But it is exactly this pause that Ann was trying to provoke, because thinking before speaking allows you to correctly what you wish to enunciate as a sound of thought. Taking up to 90 seconds to ponder can allow you to express yourself correctly and efficiently.
. persistence assumes greater importance than the energy of the moment.
. Being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand.
. in this world, the things that I see, come so clearly to me.
Animals and music were Ann’s favourite ways of expressing/confirming Pan’s presence in Hutopia.
Take bootiek, for example. Bootiek is a dog that pan encountered when observing a fishing trip along the river danube in hungary. Bootiek, translating into ‘knuckles’ in English, has a relatively long tale for a dog. He was originally rescued from a sanctuary after spending 6 months in there following his first 8 months as a street dog.
At first he lacked doggy etiquette, attacking other dogs, but he is alright now. Now house-trained, he has an assortment of tricks, ranging from being shot and pretending to be dead, to standing on his hind legs in an unbelievably cute manner and begging. His best friend is now a magpie who he sees daily in the park.
Pan’s purpose is to show that there’s beauty and consciousness everywhere in Ann’s creation. Dogs are in fact likely to be gods; spelled backwards they are the same, just like priests they wear a collar and also they appear often as gargoyles in churches and cathedrals. Nothing goes to waste in Hutopia; everything contributes to the enjoyment of Ann.
One stop-and-stare, have-a-deep-breath, take-it-all-in example of this can be witnessed every morning at keleti underground station. Classical music is played through speakers, creating a symphony to the movement of the busy, rushing people heading to work. With this music playing, it mimics the movement of bees and ants in their hive, supposedly here, there and everywhere, but with a silent purpose to it all. People appear to be puppets on a thinly-strung thread of beauty. Pan is the purpose. Pan is the puppet-master. Pan is the beauty.

The wisdom of everything
Phil
I make a mockery of the poverty of philosophy. I play with des cartes that have been dealt to me; staying in the casino, I spin 0s And go and win the lottery. I pass a plate over on your arrival, because, yeah, I’m waiting to get this party started in style, yo. I Nietzsche here with me, in amongst the stars; everywhere I turn I see a new ton of them. On a boat party, I threw Rick ross eauverboard. It’s picking up birds by the seaside; I be like ‘hey guls, what you doing tonight?’’. They invited me to a Mexican poetry stand-off; those ones where you gotta show pen hour it’s time to write. I just didn’t know what to put, so I wrote: ‘’I think that we have a dormant plot in us to get more out of this world before they throw away the locke and key. So, let’s do it while the grass is still dewey. Now, I can’t be sure, but I think I’ve just scored, full marx in this philosophy test.’.
Ann placed a man with the mental capacity of Phil’s into Hutopia as she had a need of those who experience, as an essential requirement of life, certain questions on the nature of the human being and the universe, just as one experiences hunger and thirst. Phil provided purpose for people to not be idle and to go out and live their life to the fullest. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but at least the cat had the courage to go and look at what was going on.
Phil. Why was he called phil? He’d repeatedly asked himself this, just like he questioned all things.
The etymology of phil leads to the word ‘love’ and he thus accepted that in the past he must have been considered dear to the living and inanimate. The truth was the ann held him dearest because his inquisitive nature paved the way for pioneering productions by people.
But now, now things were muddied, and all he could contemplate was how he fell s0 far from grace. This, coupled with demi’s abundance, had distorted his memory to the extent that he had forgotten his origin amongst things and this was why he now had such a yearning for answers, for knowledge.
Phil says that to learn history means to seek and find the forces which are the causes leading to those effects which we subsequently perceive as historical events. Asking, querying, thinking, are some of the few things that are free in this world, so why not do them?
Imre munkácsi
Phil could more often than not be found at Bench Cafe on gozsdu udvar in Budapest, going by the name of imre munkácsi. If Phil did not go by a disguise name, then he would be mobbed and swarmed for advice whenever he introduced himself, and normally his problems were 10x more existential than the ones he’d get asked.
Imre purchased Bench Cafe as a mini social-experiment as he wished to observe and interact with humans more closely on a day-to-day basis. From this vantage point he could marvel and inspire humans with tales of his trips to Tibet and India, where, he swears, he saw a monk materialise money out of thin air. It’s possible, he says, if one truly, attentively focuses on it for 5 minutes without another single thought entering your specified sphere. Not many listeners believe this story.
One of Imre’s little experiments is to see
how and how much information he can entice out of customers. By offering a free shot of palinka to whoever has the nearest birthday to the current date, Imre, in a matter of seconds, is able to ascertain the birthdays of, say it was a group of 4, four strangers. With a little tweaking somethings more sensitive than birthdays may be able to be divulged.
Imre’s favourite spiel is to tell customers about the art of dreaming, and more specifically about the assemblage point located behind the head, detached from the body. It is this assemblage point that adorns the head of angels in typical Christian drawings; it is what allows us to see the world the way we do, from our fixed point of view. When dreaming, our assemblage point shifts its location, which is why we see things that are scientifically impossible to happen in everyday life. With training and help from shamans in South America and Mexico, it is possible to be able to control this movement, and effectively control our reality when awake. When discussing this topic, Imre instructs his audience to follow up his brief introduction by reading Carlos Castaneda.
Other books recommended by Imre include: The Doors of Perception; Notes from Underground; Thus Spoke Zarathustra; A History of Western Philosophy; Welcome to the Desert of the Real; Candide; Lord of the Rings; The Delicate Force; Goodbye Bull; The Philosophy of Freedom; The Social Contract; The Stranger.
