I’m trying to join this new “job” where it looks like I will be doing “white hat” stuff, and I need to learn programming languages like Python, C++, knowing about OSystems, computer “logic,” networking, protocol, etc., and I’m a complete know-nohting noob at this point, but I’m a logical-minded person, am a computer addict since childhood, and this job would pay a lot if I complete a “learning period” prerequisite period.
Anyway, I ask because I’m wondering if knowing how to program about what “makes things” work, such as automated scripts that can do [scheduled] work for me could help if I want to make “magickal” things, such as servitors, egregores, or anything else in magick I am not thinking of? Or am I just jumping the gun thinking the thinking I will learn will apply in any way to magick?

Yes, computer programming can be applied to magical endeavors. It has been since the early days of Chaos Magick. Research the cybernetic paradigm, which approaches spirits as packets of information rather than autonomous individual beings.

I and others have touched on this subject many times before.
Q. Explain how the information technology (IT) paradigm can be applied to explain the occult, witchcraft, magick, and metaphysics.
A. The information technology paradigm is a way of thinking about how information is processed, stored, and transmitted. It can be applied to explain the occult, witchcraft, magick, and metaphysics in several ways, but it is important to note that the application of this paradigm to those subjects is not universally accepted and some people may disagree with the ide…
Is it possible to actually invoke a computer language like Java or HTML? Or any language?
@Lady_Eva has evoked the New Avatar Power book, for example.
@Micah has evoked the Demonic Tongue, for example. With great success.
So I’ll put a list of computer (old and new) languages that I think should be evoked/invoked.
Assembly Language
C/C++/C#
BASIC/Visual Basic
COBOL
FORTRAN
Pascal
Python
JavaScript
Java
Ruby
HTML
Perl
CSS
Operating Systems:
Android
Linux
Windows

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic .”
~ Arthur C. Clarke, * Profiles of the Future (revised edition, 1973)
I recall an episode of the sci-fi show, “Babylon 5” where there were these beings called “Techno-mages” that used technology to accomplish magick feats.
We already have several technologies already in place to begin the development of the technomage. All occult texts have been digitized onto the Internet. Virtual Reality is finally becoming a reality (…
In a previous thread, three years ago, I proposed an initiative to “begin the development of the technomage”, a way to accelerate and support the fusion of the digital and spiritual realms for the final eventual coming of the Singularity .

The only thing is that I did not consider artificial intelligence (AI). At least I did not consider it directly. It was not a total mistake because I was mostly focusing on the human side of technology and spir…
To be honest I think A.I. Could be a potential threat what I’m saying Is if we created a thinking, problem solving conscious, self aware artificial intelligence.
Imagine for example, many engineers have said in a week or two that super artificial brain will have access to all knowledge mankind ha’s discovered.
Then the A.I. might have a self updating software, where it could build codes that we wouldn’t ever fathom.
Two computers made up a language and communicated via this language as if the…
@ TheeProphet - Think of it as a different Vocabulary, and combinding Letters to Words, rather then your mentioned combinating of Drugs.
The Orgininal Language Coding is conducted into Electric Charge, transformed into Plus and Minus - Male and Female, with every little Bit Of Information processed in normal Language, as we use Computers.
Transformed into Mathematic Code, most of it seems completly useless, without the ability to actually read the Code.

Are you asking about like, magickal programming languages? Thats falls under the “data” or “information” paradigm of understanding energy/magick. Ive experimented with it some, to limited success, but I am also interested in building a whole language for it not just a few spells.
I need to get this out there, as that I am convinced this is possible. And the more I think about it, this definitely belongs under the “Omnipotence” thread. Having collected a large mental repository of entities who can help in such a venture, including one from The BOA. I am also looking for input, experiences, and anything else that may help with what I am concocting in my cauldron of madness.
