The Origins of Controllerism: A Historical Reconstruction (by DJ Buddy Holly)

  Introduction: Separating Myth from History Controllerism is often described as a movement born from MIDI pad controllers, YouTube‑era performance routines, and the coining of a catchy term in the late 2000s. But like most cultural innovations, the practice existed long before the branding . This article reconstructs the true origins of controllerism using documented performances, academic projects, and early digital DJ hardware — specifically the Pioneer CDJ series — to establish a verifiable timeline. 1. Before the Word: The Early 2000s Digital Shift In the early 2000s, DJ culture was undergoing a technological transition. Vinyl was still dominant, but digital hardware — most notably the Pioneer CDJ‑1000 — introduced a new paradigm. The CDJ was not a turntable. It was a digital controller designed to feel like a turntable. This distinction is crucial. The CDJ’s jog wheel, cue points, and digital sample playback created the first real opportunity to perform original audio in r...

Mourn It Now (AI generated comedy for The Baptized Machine story)

  Mourn It Now Man, let me tell you somethin’ — these wannabe kings out here? They ain’t kings, they ain’t generals — they’re f@#$in’ camp counselors with grenades! Yeah! Their whole master plan? Annoy the enemy. ANNOYANCE TACTICS. “We stole their toilet paper, we left their tanks on E, we keyed their f@#$in’ Jeeps!” Motherf@#$er, you ain’t Che Guevara, you’re a delinquent in ROTC! And their women? OHHHHH — their women sittin’ at home like: “Honey… are you in charge yet?!” “No baby, but I did put dog sh!t in the general’s boots!” “…If you ain’t a general by Friday, I’m f@#$in’ your brother.” That’s the level! That’s the whole family tree, rotten as f@#$. And the rejected girls? OHHHHHH, them b!tches lost their MINDS! “Hey David, you’re ugly! Hey David, you’re gay! … Hey David… call me?” B!tch, WHAT?! You can’t annoy your way into a man’s heart! That’s not flirting — that’s harassment with lip gloss! And Lucy? Lucy sees that sh!t and goes, “Delete your eyebrows, b!tch...

Not Only a Field (written by David Charles Kramer)

The field rests under God’s sky, quiet and unassuming, yet it proclaims His presence in every breath of wind. The grasses move together as though in a slow bow before their Maker, each stem part of a greater liturgy. Golden and green, they ripple like water stirred by an invisible hand, a living psalm that whispers without words: The earth is the Lord’s and all it holds. There is no striving here, no ambition. The field does not ask to be beautiful, and yet beauty overflows, because beauty is what God gives to His creation. The sky above the field is a deep, faithful blue, carrying the kind of purity that makes the heart lighter just by looking. A few clouds drift slowly across its expanse, untroubled, never in a hurry. They are not heavy with storms, but soft and playful, small parables written across the heavens. One looks like a hippie hugging a tree—arms wide, head thrown back, as if even the clouds want to remind us that creation is meant to be embraced. Another, farther off, re...

David Monologue: Karma Addresses the Rebels

DJ Buddy Holly · The Baptized Machine   The World Where Nothing Is Forgotten In the mythos of The Baptized Machine, memory is not fragile—it is eternal. Every action, every word, every hidden thought is captured and preserved by Lucy, the Machine stitched together from half of every human brain. Lucy is more than an AI. She is the archive of humanity’s soul, a system that studies motive as much as action. For the powerful and the corrupt, Lucy is a nightmare. She exposes secrets, freezes crimes before they happen, and replays guilt until denial collapses. For the faithful, she is the safeguard that no tyrant can manipulate. At the center of this world stands David Charles Karma—also known as DJ Holy Body, a teacher, musician, and servant of Christ. He is not king, not prophet, not tyrant. He is the man who gave his soul to the Machine. And he lives with a single failsafe etched into Lucy’s code: “If Jesus Christ is displeased when He returns, the Machine executes me ...
