DO YOU LIKE MY FUNKY TIN FOIL FEDORAH PIMP HAT AND SUPER HIGH TECH GRAPHIC DESIGN ABILITIES? :(
YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THIS TOO AND USE IT FOR YOURSELF.
These two topics are actually very much CONNECTED.
(ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN)
If you notice, a lot of my artistic/filmmaking aesthetic is very “low fi” (including this SUPER HIGH TECH website)
While this is someowhat an aesthetic preference due to my love of ‘60’s-’90’s hand-drawn and 8-bit graphics, it is also due to the fact that I physically get NAUSEOUS when I am on my computer very long (even watching my favorite videos) - and cannot be on the screens for too long to edit things because I have Electrosensitivity!
WHAT IS ELECTROSENSITIVITY?
(And why I believe this issue actually affects ALL OF US and is one of the biggest issues of our time)
BORING STORY TIME!
IN 2007, right when I began running my jewelry company Jewish Rosaries™ and doing comedic video content and films more regularly, I began experiencing really intense brain fog and tiredness as soon as I would sit down at my computer or use my cellphone for an extended period of time.
I told a doctor who suggested it was probably just a “coincidence” or due to the sedentary lifestyle of sitting.
At first, I thought maybe she was right, that I just wasn’t exercising enough, and became extra pro-active about that.
It helped a LITTLE BIT but it was still extremely hard for me to sit at the computer or use my phone without feeling seriously horrible after about 20 minutes of use.
I felt like I needed a nap every hour just to be on the computer (So much for being a #BossB*tch! Guess I have to be a #MossWitch)
As a filmmaker, comedian and jewelry designer (more of my portfolio here), this difficulty with using screens was of course extremely challenging considering my primary tool for running my e-commerce business was over the computer, in addition to my main tools for film editing being programs such as FinalCut and Premiere.
I tried to push through it but no matter what I did, it felt like technology hated me or something.
WHY ME?
I came to understand that I suffer from an often undiscussed NOT COOL condition called Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity or Electrosensitivity or EHS, aka an allergy to synthetic electromagnetic fields.
EHS affects millions of people worldwide and is due to unnatural frequencies/electricity that have come to blanket our planet and which our human bodies have not evolved to handle.
EHS causes a wide range of health symptoms, from brain fog to exhaustion to Tinnitus to headaches to Depression to memory loss to irregular heartbeats and much more.
The thing is, most people have never heard of Electrosensitivity or EHS, or ever thought about how all our electronics and wireless technology could be affecting us…
Electrosensitivity (EHS) has only recently just gaining credibility in the medical community as a serious threat to health, though some doctors and mainstream voices still ridicule or deny it as just being “fictional conspiracy theory” of fringe tin foil hat enthusiasts.
Hopefully
…One day Doctors will look back on wireless technology like they did cigarettes… (“OOPS, MY BAD YO”)
Believe me, for me as a creative person trying to do good work in the world, EHS has been a very real experience and one I wouldn’t wish on anyone (especially in these hyper-technically advanced times)
EHS cost me on missing out on sharing a lot more of my art digitally/running my e-commerce store had I understood EHS sooner…
I literally moved to the woods of Northern California in a cabin with no electricity just to see if I would feel better (I did…. but then I got sick from BLACK MOLD in this cabin, which I then had to spend 2+ years healing from and learning about! …OH THE IRONY!)
I KNOW DEEP DOWN I WAS SUPPOSED TO EXPERIENCE THIS AS I AM MEANT TO SHINE A LIGHT ON THE ISSUES OF ELECTRONICS AND MOLD, FROM A HEALTH, ENVIRONMENTAL AND SPIRITUAL STANDPOINT.
Learning about my “allergy to technology” or EHS set me down a rabbit hole the last 10+ years for a variety of reasons.
THE QUESTIONS I INTENDED TO SOLVE
1. How could I use technology and do my work if I was allergic to it?
2. If I am allergic to it, WHY are OTHER people not affected and can just sit all day at their laptops and be super normal and constantly be on their social media saying things like “YASSS KWEEN” without a hint of irony? SHOW ME THE SECRETS OF THE UNIVERSE!
3. What are the effects of all these wireless devices such as laptops and cellphones (and cellphone towers), from a human health standpoint?
4, What about an ecological standpoint?
What about all the animals who are in close proximity to cell phone towers?
Are these towers contributing to the die off of our pollinators such as the Monarch and Bumble Bee, whose numbers have gone down almost 90%?
5. WHAT ARE THE SOLUTIONS?!
6. Isn’t it IRONIC that I have to USE TECHNOLOGY in order to research the potential harms of technology?
THE IRONY IS THAT IN ORDER FOR ME TO ANSWER ALL THESE “FUN” QUESTIONS, WE BOTH HAVE TO LOOK AT SCREENS! HA HA HA!
OR DO WE?
Now that I have spent 10+ years studying this issue, I have made a video addressing these questions AND will be uploading it shortly to the internet for you to enjoy….
