Joker Calculus is the most reliable scientific way of inducing headache known to mankind. It is a complete brain-fuck because it is a calculus that deals with existence (which is already a brain-fuck).
If you get enough practice, then you can keep the headaches beneath a tolerable level to develop a more flexible mind. This calculus is an exercise for the brain.
Imagine a conversation between two people:
Just like one can train the body using exercises that are repetitive and seemingly useless seen from the perspective of a single moment, one can train the mind to become better using Joker Calculus in combination with ideas such as philosophy, art or mathematics.
Basically, it is like formalizing your imagination.
These exercises are made to make people understand the basics of Joker Calculus.
Do the same exercise as level 1, but now there is a label on top, showing “0” and a label at the bottom showing “1”.
Do the same exercise as level 3, but now think about this as being called a “Joker”.
The code for this joker is ?1.
Do the same exercise as level 3, but instead of a force driving the arrow down to “1”, it activates at “1” and drives it up to “0”.
Do the same exercise as level 4, but now think about this as having the code ?0.
Do the same exercise as level 6, but try to vary the directions from where you move the magnet close to the arrow. Repeat this excercise until you are comfortable approaching the arrow from any direction, including up and down.
Do the same exercise as level 6, but now do it only from the down direction labeled “1”.
Do the same exercise as level 8, but now think about this as having the code “1 0”.
This exercise is the same as level 6, but for down instead of up.
Do the same exercise as level 10, but try to vary the directions from where you move the magnet close to the arrow. Repeat this excercise until you are comfortable approaching the arrow from any direction, including up and down.
Do the same exercise as level 10, but now do it only from the up direction labeled “0”.
Do the same exercise as level 12, but now think about this as having the code “0 1”.
Congratulations! You have now completed the training of basic exercises for Joker Calculus.
If you struggle with higher exercises, then take a break and start warming up with basic exercises. Remember, the more work you put into the basic training, the less energy you have to spend in the higher exercises. Do not try to over-exercise your brain.
These exercises take what you learned from basic training and applying them abstractly.
Think about the following codes in sequence, pausing 5 seconds between on each:
01?0When you come to the third step, you brain will attempt to visualize the Joker 0 with the code ?0.
Do not let your brain visualize, but just rest your eyes on the expression of the third step.
Repeat.
This exercise is the same as level 1, but with ?1 instead of ?0.
Think about the following codes in sequence, pausing 5 seconds between on each:
10?1When you come to the third step, you brain will attempt to visualize the Joker 1 with the code ?1.
Do not let your brain visualize, but just rest your eyes on the expression of the third step.
Do the same exercise as level 3, but now think about this as having the code 1 0.
Do the same exercise as level 5, but now think about this as having the code 0 1.
Think about the following steps, resting 5 seconds at each:
1 0.0 1.Just let your brain do whatever it wants, whether you visualize or not.
Repeat.
Do the same exercise as level 7, but reverse the order.
Think about the following steps, resting 5 seconds at each:
0 1.1 0.Just let your brain do whatever it wants, whether you visualize or not.
Repeat.
This exercise is a meta-exercise, where you just reflect on exercises performed from level 1 to level 2.
Think about the following steps, resting 5 seconds at each:
Do not force your brain to visualize or not, just let it do what it wants.
You do not have to look up the exercises. Just let the steps refer to these exercises, but do not force yourself to give them any meaning.
Repeat.
This exercise is a meta-exercise, where you just reflect on exercises performed from level 3 to level 6.
This exercise is a meta-exercise, where you just try to forget what level 7 and level 8 were about.
You do not have to force yourself to forget. Just try.
Congratulations! You have now completed the training of abstract exercises for Joker Calculus.
Abstract exercises help your brain rest and save energy on work it does not need to do. Do not worry, the symbols carry all meaning that you need.
However, if your brain wants to visualize, then just let it. There is no need to force the brain to save energy it does not want to save.
