Bill Klaus, high-school teacher, blogger, “original sync gangster,” Dickhead, mixed-media alchemist, and founder of the long-running Always Record podcast over at Sync Book Radio, joins Alex Fulton for the inaugural episode of We Don’t Talk About Crypto-K, the podcast about Cryptokubrology—the study of “haunted” or paranormal media—what Shawn Montgomery who coined the phrase in 2012 called “the science behind coincidence.”
Topics include: teaching in the modern world, expanding grey matter, the occult significance of the taxi, Crypto-K as LAMinate, Joachim of Fiore, Philip K Dick, Paul Thomas Anderson, the secret of Phantom Thread, Boogie Nights as a Laminate of The Shining, visual space vs literate space, sync as practice not theory, syncing Deadpool and Wolverine, Megalopolis, and Twin Peaks: The Return.
They are accompanied by a song from their mutual friend, the late Mark LeClair, a founding synchromystic who blogged about Stanley Kubrick and synchronicity as the Wrong Way Wizard in the halcyon days of 2007 to 2014.

Here’s what Elon’s slop-machine made of the first episode of We Don’t Talk About Crypto-K (after a little training and encouragement):
In the conversation with Bill Klaus on 12/7/2024, topics range from modern education to the esoteric symbolism of taxis, contrasting tech algorithms with human intelligence. "Crypto-K" is explored as a metaphor for cognitive expansion, drawing connections to mystics like Joachim of Fiore. Philip K. Dick's VALIS theory is discussed, suggesting media as a conduit for hidden messages. The dialogue then shifts to synchromysticism, analyzing film syncing with music for deeper interpretations, particularly Kubrick's films through numerology. It ends by promoting synchromysticism as a healing practice, encouraging personal exploration in finding esoteric connections across media.
Sounds like a good time, right? So press play and enjoy!
