On Artistic Research, Symbolic Communication, and Responsibility

I want to clarify the nature, scope, and boundaries of my recent publications and creative work.

My work as Namasthay / Gabriel Wayenberg exists at the intersection of art, systems research, speculative inquiry, and cultural reflection. Over the past decades, I have explored how symbols, narratives, music, and emerging technologies shape collective perception—particularly during moments of global uncertainty.

Some of my recent writings, music, and visual materials engage with religious symbolism, historical motifs, and contemporary technological questions. These explorations are artistic and investigative in nature. They are not directives, operational proposals, political programs, or claims of authority.

On “Signals,” Interpretation, and Meaning

Humans naturally search for meaning in moments of intensity, creativity, and transformation. My work examines how such meaning is constructed, how it circulates, and how it can inspire reflection or dialogue.

I do not claim to represent, speak for, coordinate with, or act on behalf of:

• Governments

• Religious institutions

• Military or intelligence bodies

• Political movements

• Spiritual authorities

Any references to public figures, institutions, or historical events are contextual and symbolic, not indicative of endorsement, instruction, or collaboration.

On Experimental Communication and Research

In the past, I have participated in open, consent-based artistic and academic-adjacent exploratory work on perception, narrative dynamics, and resonance. These activities informed and enlightened my later creative work and theoretical reflections on social readyness.

They do not constitute classified activity, covert operations, or privileged access. They are part of a long-standing artistic and research practice that prioritizes ethics, restraint, and responsibility.

On Artists, Collaborators, and Public Figures

Other artists and public figures referenced in my work—including musicians and cultural voices—are not participants in my research, nor are they responsible for my interpretations. Their expressions stand independently and deserve respect, privacy, and protection, and stand on their own.

Any perceived alignment should be understood as cultural resonance, not coordination.

On Responsibility and Care

In times of heightened global tension, it is essential to:

• Avoid escalation

• Avoid speculation presented as fact

• Avoid attributing intent where none is stated

I take this responsibility seriously.

My work is offered as an invitation to reflection, not belief; dialogue, not mobilization; imagination, not instruction.

I remain committed to:

• Artistic integrity

• Intellectual honesty

• Psychological safety

• Respect for institutions and individuals

• Clear boundaries between symbolism and action

This statement serves as a grounding reference for readers, collaborators, and observers engaging with my work now and in the future. This page and blog post represent a boundary statement. It is not a call to action and not a request for recognition.”
