Been a long while since I was of a mind to collect all of these I could.

The idea has evolved from the early days when we all thought we would be singing Ukraine off the stage.
#Ukraine has proven she will not be sung off the world stage.
Time for an effort to sing her through her dark days.
Small music bands of NATO & Ukraine! Невеликі музичні гурти України & NATO!
Soon, we will sing as one. Незабаром ми будемо співати як один.
Слава Україні!

If you can hear the bizarre call out from General #BettyDavis, we handing out #AlanLomax brand Magnifiers. Train you up on how to direct the beam with a mighty intent, understand?
Fuck those .01% efforts. Not fleet of foot, filled with #Heart, nor given genuine & healin' laughter.
#Lomax & #Borges would not build such a thing anyway.
Music, artist, authors. For #Ukraine you rally here. Michigander & Ukrainian creatives into the breach first
We understand #Science for fuck's sake. Comprehend the looming beasts of outrage attention fatigue.
We can penetrate the saturating frequencies.

So while the Bigs & Kingfishers go after sowing seeds down from the elite skies, (which is still behind schedule worse than this project is due to my ruminations), we aim our childhood magnifying lenses out in the scatter.
Music Special Forces, brought up organic from the Mitten. We have a music wellspring here, and can alight the underbrush around it.
Michigan's greater Motown proving the Arsenal of Democracy ain't just the few cities supplying the engines of change. It was her people, & her people's roots run deep. Right down into that wellspring.
#AlanLomax knew that seeds spring best up from the ground herself, hidden by the complexity of the vast underbrush & begat by selfsame. Hidden from greater view of the credulous & incurious by the blinding broadcasted light of the .01% of music.

This is an evolved #AlanLomax joint, here. He studied, loved the 99.9% of music.
The wide & vasty underbrush that is the plant most dominant in the Garden of Music.
So few of our species even have the eyes for seein' it.

Let's not forget that any evolved #USO effort is going to gather the .01% of music or other artists. Trickle down music. Trickle down art.
Trickle down effort that has proven itself time after time to be an inefficient method of distribution.
I'm happy #ImagineDragons are all in on Victory for #Ukraine, or any other larger artist anchoring to the same, but this effort is not, & cannot be that.
Whole lotta ego got wrought into the .01% of music, packaged as such & broadcasted out.
Look at the name before the music.
Government cultural efforts will harvest these names, these egos, these pre-packaged music meals to try to plant the seeds of change.
This project is not that.

There is a plan in place for the more conservative areas of music currently, and I would love for there to be a sweary version of Hee Haw, but that cannot be an initial thrust.
Jazz worked last time because that is what was edgy & new at a time of media/content desaturation.
Those times are not these.
Limiting a mindset to the past's templates on a supersaturated media/content climate is doomed to plant few seeds in fewer minds.

Government organizations are staid by nature. Government organizations that promote culture & art doubly so, for obvious reasons. Edgy is not what they do, and when they try, the result is most usually hilarious.
Most nations fall into the trap of always fighting their current battle within the lens of what they did in the last.
In the context of what our aim is, it would be like bringing Hee Haw to a Tupac fight. Just different arenas of thought, mate. Plan lost to first contact as is the norm.
Using what worked for music in WWI or WWII cannot be a template for what music can accomplish in warfare during our times. It will look & ring hollow. It would, will fail.

The justification and conceit for the idea comes from a long history of music during wartime.

I'm kind of amazed it hasn't gelled much in our time yet. Time to change that
Update it for this era. This battlefront. Our time.

#Bulldog469 was crafted to bend the perceptual space around the enemy. Warp their senses, get them to act illogically against their goals.
https://twitter.com/IuliiaMendel/status/1630964675784343559?s=20
Get into the enemy's intent & liquefact the ideas upon which they've rooted.
Set about them funhouse mirrors as polytopic nets.
Rain down flechettes of intrusive thought into the enemy's awareness & attention.
The #MotherAbrams feeds again.
Every bit of kit needs a thorough TM or FM.
Bulldog 4/69 is no exception.
Now that Bulldog is feeding, fucking, & fighting again, info is vital to convey in a way that a general troop can comprehend.
FM's & TM's will have to adapt, so expect instruction to be fragmented across services & media types.
Do keep up, troop.
