AI Overview
“The "Justified Ancients of Mu Mu," or JAMs, was a stage name used by the KLF, a British music duo, to reference the fictional lost continent of Mu, as mentioned in the Illuminatus! Trilogy. They also used the name to adopt a philosophy of discordianism and situationism, embracing chaos and contradiction. The "Mu Mu" reference, and the associated concept of traveling to Mu, was a deliberate ambiguity designed to be interpreted in multiple ways, both literally and figuratively, by the KLF's audience.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Mu as a Lost Continent: The KLF adopted the name "Justified Ancients of Mu Mu" after the fictional group in Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson's Illuminatus! Trilogy. This fictional group, in turn, was based on the concept of Mu, a mythical lost continent, similar to Atlantis.
Discordianism and Situationism: The KLF embraced the philosophical ideas presented in the Illuminatus! Trilogy, including discordianism (a parody of religion) and situationism (an artistic and political movement). This influenced their art and performances, which were often anarchic and theatrical.
The Ambiguity of "Mu": The KLF's use of "Mu Mu" was intentionally ambiguous. It could be interpreted as a literal location that one could travel to, or as a metaphorical state of mind or spiritual experience, as they suggested in an invitation to an event called "The Rites of Mu".
The "All bound for Mu Mu land" Refrain: This phrase, frequently used by the KLF, further cemented the connection between the band and the concept of Mu.
The KLF's Performances: The KLF's live performances often included theatrical elements, such as the use of props, costumes, and crowd-related noise, all of which contributed to a sense of both spectacle and esoteric symbolism.
The "Rites of Mu" Event: The KLF organized a summer solstice event called "The Rites of Mu," where they transported attendees to the island of Jura, Scotland, in what they described as a journey to the lost continent of Mu. This event further blurred the lines between literal and metaphorical travel to Mu.
In essence, the "Mu Mu" reference was a key element of the KLF's persona and artistic statement. It served as a way to create a sense of mystery, ambiguity, and esoteric meaning around their music and performances.”
The Justified Ancients Of Mu Mu: All You Need Is Love:
“[King Boy D]
Well we're back again
They never kicked us out
Twenty thousand years of SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT…
[Female singers]
A child is dying and there's nothing I can do
Just wait and watch and pray to god for a miracle to break through
You preach and teach about the life I have led
But tell that to my little boy whose only just turned two
[Samantha Fox]
Touch me Touch Me
I wanna feel your body!
[Chike]
I don't wanna die!
[King Boy D]
What the (static) !”
Godspeed you black emperor! Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven: Static:
"...prepared in innocence to meet our king of glory
And so we have this
You have it in your secret windows
And you're understanding to understand it and to bring it forth
It takes minute detail
It takes a holy life
It takes motions
It takes dedication
It takes dedication
It takes a death
And only God can allow it
And you couldn't do it if you're not the seed of God
And so the path through the great corridors
These are corridors unto his perfection
That is which the prophet and the Urim and Thummim has penetrated
That through this great sea of blackness
That I penetrated through these corridors
And I went through that last segment
Where I went through these dark serpentines
I passed through that corridor
Where they sat, where they are
And when you penetrate to the most high God
You will believe you are mad
You will believe you've gone insane
But I tell you if you follow the secret window
And you die to the ego nature
You will penetrate this darkness
Oh yes, there's many a man or woman
That's been put in the insane asylum
When this has happened to them
And they're sitting there today, people think they're insane
But they saw something that's real
And they see it when they're on drugs
The only thing is they see it
Not through the light of God, and the way I show you
I show you to see it through the light of God
And the understanding of God
Because when you see the face of God, you will die
And there will be nothing left of you
Except the God-man, the God-woman
The heavenly man, the heavenly woman
The heavenly child..."
