We use the term viral to describe the way
information spreads across the internet, but a new social communications app
has taken that concept to its extreme. Instead of using the word “virus” as a
metaphor, an app called Plague developed in Lithuania
Every disease is a simple bit of content, whether
text, a link, a photo or a video. When you unleash it, it immediately seeks out
the nearest four smartphones with the Plague app installed, infecting them with
your content. When those four users next log in they will have the choice of
spreading the infection by scrolling the screen up – infecting another four
nearby users – or inoculating themselves against it by thumbing the screen
downwards, thus abating the spread of the virus. You can also choose to comment
on any given post. http://bit.ly/1zG3RlD
Nov.26.
Plague is
the brain child of Lithuania-based firm Deep Sea Marketing based in Vilnius , Lithuania Vilnius ,
Lithuania
ARACHNE: spider
webs, network; creation of entanglement.
PANDORA: Encountering unexpected consequences;
getting more than you bargained for; being enticed by a curiosity, new idea,
person or situation-and finding that it has set you on a whole new path.
The combination can therefore refer to surprising
and unexpected ways in which a network expands because people are enticed by a curiosity, new
idea, person or situation.
Notice that Uranus-Pluto-Jupiter Grand Cross
to which the eclipse is anchored straddles the horizon axis. Mars and the TNP
Zeus at the Libra end of the Cross are conjunct stars of Corvus, the Crow. The
Crow is a talking bird and here are people in love with gossip, tidings, what’s
happening, what’s new, what’s up so that this area refers, among other things,
to social media. And if we combine this with the fact that Uranus-Pluto is
linked to “scientific and technological breakthroughs” we can see why a new
social media app has been invented.
The fact
that “Plague” allows an individual’s posts to spread rapidly can also be seen
if we progress the eclipse chart to Nov. 26, the date of the news when the TNP
Apollon that is conjunct the North Node and the eclipse Moon reaches the MC. The
keyphrases for Apollon given by Arlene Kramer are:
APOLLON
The multiplier: expansion and
spreading; growth and increase. Science, commerce, trade, industry, peaceful
efforts ... The glyph is a combination of Jupiter and Gemini, and Apollon is
truly a Super-Duper-Jupiter.
