Hedge Fun Deployment: Enter The Mythosphere


"Meet myTHself Trinity, Christopher WonkerWankerWalkerloo. Watch him enter the mythosphere in a visionary mission to set imagination free! For ten years myTHself Christopher Walkerloo and his paper soldiers have fought a real pretend war with the Mega Corp's plastic toys that litter the globe. (BattleOfWalkerloo films 1 & 2 & blog) For generations copyright controlled plastic figures have dominated the world of action toys. But one Media Mega Corp in particular has begun to dominate all the rest. It buys up the IP (Intellectual Property) of the world's most popular toy stories as the IP of it's own creator finally times out to feed it's insatiable appetite for profit and growth. It controls and manipulates the pop culture characters who inhabit our dreams. These characters are no longer the subjects of their original creator's timely vision - they are stripped of meaning and enslaved to stories with banal commercial goals inherently blind to humanities well being. Born of surreptitious vision myTHself has united three of his stories to create a new 'special hero' (even the words super hero are forbidden outside of the corporation's zombie narratives!). In this short film MYthSELF Trinity begins his mission and launches for the first time in to the mythosphere... that special human non-place that we all live within. That special human non-place where an artist's vision can match a mega corporations... Meet myTHself Trinity, Christopher WonkerWankerWalkerloo. Coming Soon : La Bataille D'Isigny..."

So goes the YouTube note.
