From: 12 Evil Experiments that May Change The World
Egg Separated Clones
It's my understanding that a clone is just like a twin, and that there's a very easy way to make twins, in Vitro! -- You simply separate the fertilized egg after it's first division, and then when they two resulting eggs divide, you separate them... and so on, until you have a few hundred of these identical eggs.
Then you allow them to develop to stage 'x' --???-- when they're ready to be implanted into a host uterus, and allow them ( gawd willing ) to turn into a viable baby...!
---
What if; You were to do something like this, only you didn't exactly tell anyone...???
What if; You worked in a fertility clinic, or some such, and instead of implanting the eggs that you were supposed to be implanting, you were implanting these identical eggs that you had squirreled away in a secret refrigerator...???
---
So then:
16 years later or so... The first set of twins accidentally discover one another--
and after a short piece appears in a local newspaper, another of the twins comes forward...
and another, and another and so on...
---
You have undoubtedly heard of this sort of thing happening already, with twins, and in a few rare cases, triplets...!!!
But with HUNDREDS of identical duplicates to study...
All presumptions that their 'similarities' or 'quirks' or 'Life Coincidences' were just a fluke or a statistical aberration...
Would be Filly Fally.
---
Scientists, Psychologists and Behaviouralists would suddenly have to explain how dozens and dozens of these genetic duplicates have all married a brunette named 'Pythornia' and have a collie/pekineese mix dog named 'Orlando'.

What would it mean for Religion? Science? PrimeTime Television?

Film Ideas / Effects / ( et. al. )
- Aquariums
These aren't like normal aquariums,
Although they sit on a shelf like a normal aquarium, and have silver edges, and may have something like fish swimming around in them, or not...
You may see a living room, or an outdoor garden, or just about anything...
And on the front of the aqaurium is a dot.
And if you touch the dot; You'll be transported to the scene in the Aquarium, and then, you'll find yourself with your finger on the dot, on an aquarium, but the scene in the aquarium will be the room you just left...!
And-- You may not be able to return to your previous location, because most of the aquariums are One-Way...!!! To get back to where you started, you have to find The Path through however many other aquariums, which is usually impossible due to the unknowability of where the aquariums lead to, and where they are to begin with...
Plus: When you touch the dot, you are expanded to fill the entire universe, cross over the boundry of infinity, then collapse into the other universe. For someone seeing you touch the dot, they see you suddenly expand to infinity, then collapse on the other side of the aquarium. - Skinny Door
This is simply a very thin slot in the wall, and if you have permission to enter the doorway, you will slide through, as if you suddenly came upon an invisible funnel. Anyone that does not have permission to enter, will just crash into the wall. Can you see through the slot... Yes, but nothing without permission can pass through it. - Skinny Room / Juke Box
This is like the skinny door, except that it leads to a skinny room. That is: The room is very skinny looking from the outside, but once inside, it looks like a normal room...
There are many skinny rooms avialable, and a Juke Box like contraption brings the room down to the entry way for you. - Helicopter Rescue
An innocent woman is thrown out of an airplane ( or some such ) and the hero guy is flying a helicopter and sees her falling, so he races over to where she is, then flips the helicopter on it's side, she falls onto the side of the helicopter, climbs in through the doorway, and they fly off together. - Smoking Woman
While woman is smoking, smoke rises to cover her face, then reveal it--
As a Gorilla...!!! - Tubevators
On the ground are circles that are about 3 feet in diameter. Watching them, you will occasionally see a tube, which may appear to be made of steel or wood or granite or...??? ... It either drops down from above, or rises up from below. It is solid, there are no doorways on it. Then it either rises up or falls down, revealling a passenger, that walks off. To use the Tubevator, you walk over to a circle and wait a moment. A tube rises or falls around you, and it may either appear to be a large or small room, or a landscape or outspace or you may seem to be underwater with fish swimming by, but you are not getting wet, and you can breath fine. A mermaid, or goat or elderly woman sitting at a kitchen table, peeling cucumbers will ask you where you want to go. You will feel no movement, but after a few seconds, the landscape will rise or drop away, leaving you at your destination. - Fractional Reality Toons
These Cartoons seem to be just like ordinary cartoons, except that they are 'real' -- like toonville in Roger Rabbit. This idea of Realities with lower fractional reality index really should be explored more... - Riding Tardegrades
Two completely naked girls, one older, one younger, ride into a western town, on sheep sized Tardegrades. They are Witches. But this is a minor point to the storyline... - Anomolous Genitalia
What if you had aliens that were naked, but with such anomolous genitalia that it wouldn't be naughty...??? - Plate O'Plenty
Plate O'Plenty is like a Horn of Plenty, in that it will provide you with anything you want, like a food generator on Star Trek, but instead of using Transporter technology, the items are pushed up from a gravity wave generating plate which forms atoms from the zero point background radiation. You just tell it what you want, and it makes it. To introduce it to something new, you just place it on the plate, and it is scanned as it's eaten by the device. If the thing you want is too big for the plate, then something intermediate is produced, which then produces what you want. You can also make things that aren't specifically defined, like a diamond skull... which would be composite of the delimiting boundries of a skull, made of diamond.
It can also make things like a pill of immortality or other magickal devices.
It's very ancient and knows lots of secrets. - Flyocopter
It's a giant fly, that you can get into, like a helicopter, and fly around in.
It may or may not have the ability to change it's size.
It may or may not have the ability to travel in space.
It may or may not have a living quarters in the back area...??? - Path through Universes / Version One
This would be a good start for a film, in which you start off with a naked boy and his dog swimming in a creek, then the dog gets out, and does that wierd dog twist to dry themselves off, and you zoom in onto a single drop of water, and within it, you see a tiny animal eating another tiny animal, you zoom in on the being eaten animal, into it's body, and within an internal organ are people playing badmitten, you zoom in on the birdy and inside it, are more poeple dancing on celestrial spheres, then follow one down to a plain where a shack is, inside the shack... and so on... - Path through Realities / Version Two
In a perfectly mundaine scene, the view tracks onto the television set, and into it, where the people are... from there, you jump into a photograph, then into a dark space, using a radio as a doorway, then into a painting, with action to the left, out of view from the picture frame, ( as with the photograph ) and so on... - Non-Lethal Weapons from The Future
An alein shoots a gun, and a bubble comes out, enveloping the victum and he float off.
Or the victums guy and all his clothes disappear.
Or he's pushed backwards in time to just waking up that morning... - Future Appliances
Future appliances should be completely incomprehensible. - Mirror World
A young boy discovers an ancient magick book and follows a recipe to make a magick coin with-which he can enter mirror worlds...
But inside the mirror world, it only exists when someone is looking into a mirror at that scene... Everywhere else, it's black and he may fall into those spaces, or be weightless... And since mirrors and puddles and other reflective surfaces case their images in a wide variety of orientations, the world on the other side is very disorientating...!!! With overlapping regions, and weird distortions and colours...???
Plus; As he's walking by a mirror surface, people in the real world can see him, as he can see the real world through these windows...!!! - Cloud Beings
Beings that live in the clouds, and look down on us, and have to be careful that the cloud their on doesn't disipate... if it does, they fall to the Earth as Rain or Hail...!!! - Combining Movies
Take any two movies and just lay them over one another...
Like Gone with The Wind and Stargate... - Changing Characters
You take a perfectly ordinary movie and whenever the scene changes for the camera, you switch the actor playing a given character... So that say two characters are talking, and the camera switchs from Alex to Betty, Alex was a tall sauve gentleman, and betty is a sweet, slim caucasion, but when the camera comes back to Alex, he's now a short, freckle faced 9 year old with the same clothes and glasses on as the previous Alex... and he sounds just the same.... and so on... This happens with all the characters. No attention is ever given to it. - Folding Chairs
The movie starts with an elderly man, tied to a bunk on a ship that is sinking... He is attended to by a small boy that abandons him and is the sole survivor of the sinking... We follow him through his life and from time to time, he encounters older men, that later on in the movie, are Him, older now, interacting in those same situations with a young boy that was the previous him...!!! Then it ends with him tied to the bunk and the child running off and the quarters fill with water... - Cut Ups
Take a huge number of episodes from a TV show, like Leave it to Beaver, Gilligans Island or Star Trek, then electronically cut out all the characters and dialogue, then piece together all the backgrounds, and make new episodes, periodically inserting new chaacters... Or Combining Two Series', such as Gilligans Island with Leave it to Beaver...??? - Add More Violence
While some Movie Rental places are editing the movies to remove violence and sour language... You can create new versions with more violence or more graphic violence or nudity, or rude language...
Or change the whole plot around... to make it more politically offensive...??? - ---

Phase Arrayed Camera
From:
12 Inventions that Will ( Maybe ) Change The World
Phase Arrayed Camera
The difference between a normal camera & a Phase Arrayed Camera is that latter is an Matrix / or 2 Dimensional Lattice of Many Cameras that may or may-not be on a flat plane.
A Type ( A ) Array would something like this...
Each 'o' would be a comparatively inexpensive Camera...
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
A Type ( B ) Array would consist of Different kinds of Camera's,
Such that Some would See 'Visible Light'
While other would view into the Inferred, UltraViolet, MicroWave, Radio Waves
Or whatever would be available...???
It may be desirable to wrap the array around a pillar,
or assemble it onto a sphere so that the array can look in many different directions.
Then: This array may be accessed by any number of work-stations that have free & autonomous control over the whole array.
This means that once an array is in place, Operators from all over the world, or within a given security network facility, or entertainment center; May use The Array as if Any Given Operator were the only person using it.
What could you do with These Arrays?

This means that once an array is in place, Operators from all over the world, or within a given security network facility, or entertainment center; May use The Array as if Any Given Operator were the only person using it.
What could you do with These Arrays?
- Resolution
While each camera would be a Fixed Focus, Pinhole Camera, with comparatively poor resolution, Collectively-- They would have Virtually Infinite Resolution...!
Limited only by Air Quality & Diffusion...!
Consider that each Camera is producing an Image of Pixels,
The Camera next to it; Is seeing essentially the same view, but from a slightly different position, So that if you were to Overlay the two images, The Pixels would be 'Out of Registration'. Then Create a 'New Picture' with a Resolution Much Higher than the Ones The Camera's are Producing, So that If you Interrogate each Raw Image as to what colour an Enhanced Pixel Value should be, ( These are much smaller than the Raw Image Pixels ), This Mismatch provides a computer analysis of the pixels colour approximations with additional information that neither camera can see for itself...!
Now multiply this by The Entire Array...!
Plus; if the Array were to 'Jiggle' a little, either by accident or design, Consecutive images could be added from Series of Arrayed Images, Further increasing the Overall Resolution of the Composite Super Image...!!!
An Array Operator could Zoom and Zoom & Zoom on a Stationary Object, Miles from the Array, Allowing The Resolution to 'Build Up' to The Desired Quality! - Simple Tricks
The Operator could Pan from Side to Side, Rotate an Image, Zoom In or Out, Change The Images Contrast or Brightness, Flip an Image Upside Down or Create a Mirror Reflection, Without disturbing the work of any of The Other Operators... - Depth
The Array would also assign A Three Dimensional Attribute to Each Pixel!
Since each Camera is viewing a Scene from a slightly different position, It would be simple to extract the 3D Position from each Pixel! - Removing Planes
Since each pixel has a Depth component, you could easily tell the computer to ignore all the pixels from zero to twenty feet from The Array, so that people or objects in front of the person or object that The Operator is Interested in, would just Disappear.
Any Persons or Object behind these extracted Pixels would be Filled In from Views from the Many Other Cameras.
By Isolating a Person or Object within a Given Range, you would have the effect of a 'Blue Screen' in an Open Air Environment.
When using a Hand-Held Unit, This feature could remove a Dirty Window that you're trying to Image through... or Erase The Background, and place an archived one into your image that you've previously stored away. - See Around Corners
While you wouldn't be able to see things that The Array couldn't see, The 3D element would allow you to Create 'Reliefs' that you could 'Freeze' and then Rotate from side to side, Increasing your view from Straight On to being able to see a Person or Object as if you were walking back & forth Parallel to them...
If you were combine the Viewing Data from Multiple Arrays--
Say; In an Airport, Although the Arrays and Operators would to Stationary, The Operator could Pan or 'Walk' through the Area Covered in a Virtual Manner...???
Even if you had access to only One Array, It would be possible to 'Project' the View into 3D Space, then 'Detach' The Operator's Point of View [ Floating Eyeball ], So that they could roam freely throughout the 3D Space...
But of course; They wouldn't be able to see The Backs of The People or Objects in that space... - ...Unless; You're Using a Type ( B ) Array
Using a Type ( B ) Array with Full ElectroMagnetic Spectrum Vision would allow The Operator to See Through most Barriers, Such as Walls, Furniture, Clothing & Skin!
Each additional Pixel would retain it's 3D position, so that you could effectively form 3D Spaces and use your Floating Eyeball to view around all People & Objects! - Using The Visual Array to 'Hear!'
If you were using a ( B ) Array to see into a building across the Street, It may be possible to use The Array to find a large loosely fitted surface; Such as a Window, and then analyze The Doppler Effect on an Appropriate Frequency to Hear what is being said in that room...??? - Fancy Camera Tricks
There are many Camera Effects that require the camera to roll through a viewing space, changing lens positions and focus points...
But The Array can do all that while sitting still...!
You just have to pick out The Pixels you want, and view them according to The Criteria that your Envision.
There's one trick that consists of Pulling the Camera Back in Physical Space, while Zooming into the Subject with an Appropriate Lens--
Resulting in the Subject; Popping Out from The Background!
This could easily be accomplished with The Array, Without moving The Array or Changing The Camera's Preset Focus Ranges. - Any Lens You Want
The Array could easily Simulate Not Only Macro or Micro Lens, But Telephoto, WideAngle or even Those Crazy Novelty Len's, Such as Insect Eyes or House of Mirrors... - Seeing Through Stuff
Obviously; If you're viewing with parts of spectrum that are Non-Visible, you'll have to Shift those Images to your Viewing Range... So that you can Assign any colours you want.
It may be possible to tell The Array Computer to 'Predict' what colours are 'Natural' after penetrating a wall or peeling back several layers of clothing... - Additional Information
Very often; When you see An Object, you can tell just from what colour it is, what it's made of...
This principle would hold true when viewing along The Entire Spectrum, so that you could have The Array's Computer compare 'The Colours' from Several Ranges in the E.M.Spectrum to definitively tell what a Material is Made Of, or What Alloy it is,
or Reveal What a Material's Chemical Signature is or To divulge What a Particular Molecule is...!
So that you could Instantly Identify an UnKnown Substance as being an Illegal Narcotic or Explosive Material!
You might also be able to Diagnose various Medical Conditions with remarkable accuracy! - The Portable Unit
The camera would also have the ability to store selected views,
( While the whole array may be stored in a short term memory )
and then compress them, using an optimal information compression routine,
at it's leisure ( When you're not using the Camera )
Or if it's local memory is full, or approaching capacity...
It would call your home computer,
On it's own, and download your videos to the larger archive in your basement. - Composite Collections
Obviously; you could select the resolution of the images you want and/or create 180 or 360 panoramas, even if you're hand-held Phase-Arrayed Camera could only see within an angular range of 120 degrees or so...
Since this 'Assembling' feature is a fundamental function of the array anyway...???
This may be extended to 'Walk Arounds'--
Where you would walk around a town, Then Paste all your pictures end to end, To Create a continuous Panorama of The Entire Neighborhood...! - AutoExclusions of Boring Material
The Array would also be great for Surveillance, Taking in a wide area, but only paying attention to areas that 'become' different from the preceding images or background, It would then save those isolated segments, ( at full resolution ). Later; you could view the entire frame, as the computer would paste the isolated segments back into their contextual backgrounds, ( Which weren't moving around ) and then the operator would be able to use all the normal editing features on these sections.
Security Agencies could use such approaches to watch rarely used areas, or areas that are rarely involved in criminal activity. It would also eliminate the need for people to sit around in cars, as an array could be hidden anywhere, while a taciturn operator could sit comfortably at a observation station, monitoring dozens of sites. - Anomalous Discoveries...!
This same ability to 'Notice' anomalous regions and then Zoom In on them, would be great for looking for Flying Saucers, Bigfeet or Lake Monsters.
For Flying Saucers; The array might cover a Half Sphere and be pointed straight up-- and be mounted on the top of a building in a 'Flapped' Region...???
This might also be good for Spotting Tornadoes or even keeping an eye on Airplanes at a Airport...? - Identifying What it Sees...???
Since it's seeing everything as a 3D object anyways, it should be easily able to separate objects from their backgrounds, then orient them along some predefined axes format, so that what it is seeing can be run through a seive to automatically identify it...???
What else could it do...???
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Additional Sources & Related News Items...???
- Use of a Phase Array Effect is being used to blend together multiple perspectives of one view, so as to eliminate the effect of the single range focus, in which only one small range of the scene is 'In Focus'.
Ren Ng of Standford University has produced photographs in which everything, near and far, irregardless of lighting conditions, is In Focus.

Internal Inertia Generator
From: 12 Inventions that May Change The World!
The Internal Inertia Generator has been around for along time, under various names, and various descriptions.
i used to come across some description of one, or one about to be released to the general public, and then never hear about it again. Was this because the idea is as silly as a perpetual motion machine--
( which i believe is possible...! It just seems to me that if you put together some magnets and a gravitational body together in just the right way, They've got to create an infinite amount of motion...??? )
--Or was it because someone, somehow...???...is suppressing this idea, along with an easy to use programming language, voice recognition and robots...???
You decide.
My version consists of a plastic ring, train rail wise, arranged so that a large steel ball may roll around and around inside of it... Like inside of bowl, only on tracks, so that it's precise path may be specified.
OK - So then you affix some Copper Strips along these Tracks for about a tenth of the way around... so that when The Steel Ball rolls over them, it will form an electrical connection.
Then The Copper Strips are connected to an ElectroMagnet so that when The Steel Ball rolls over them, The ElectroMagnet is turned on, Pulling The Steel Ball towards it, which is just at the end of The Copper Strips.
When The Steel Ball rolls past The Copper Strips, The connection is broken, The ElectroMagnet is turned off, and The Steel Ball, Released from The ElectroMagnets pull, is allowed to roll past, around the ring, Until it again runs over The Copper Strips... and so on.
The net effect is that The Steel Ball will experience an acceleration each time it runs around to where The Copper Strips & ElectroMagnet are.
This will cause the whole assemblage to snap 'forward' in that direction.
---
What if; You now assembled a whole bunch of these, and put them into a car, so that this Internal Inertia Generator pushed the car around, but the wheels weren't attached to a motor in any way...?
---
It could be put into a submarine and, with sufficient insulation, the submarine would be completely silent!
---
Could this be used to create an AntiGravity Effect...???
( would it resist Gravity or Push an Aircraft Up... if the Generators were arranged in the proper orientation...??? )
---
Many people who hear of this, automatically resist this because it doesn't already exist.
All inventions that don't already exist, particularly Simple Ones that would turn the world upside down...!...must be impossible for that reason alone.
---
If you have a work space and would like to work this into a prototype, and perhaps commercialize it, feel free to do so. Keep in mind however, as i've already mentioned, many have attempted to share this idea with the world before, and they are not famous, they have disappeared.
It may be that in order to share this idea with the world, you'll have to get one working, then;
Either publish it's full implementation on the internet, or send working units to several seemingly friendly newspapers or T.V. stations... Anonymously...

IQ 100 Town
From: 12 Experiments that May Change The World
IQ 100 Town
If you know anything about IQ's then you should be aware by now that psychologists think that everyone has a whole bunch of different kinds of IQ...!
You've got your Math IQ & Social IQ & ConArtist IQ & Lover IQ and so on...
What we're concerned with now, ( mostly ) is the General Purpose,
Abstract Problem Solving IQ,
which we apply to all sorts of everyday concerns, to help us overcome our daily annoyances.
For this Experiment, We want to accumulate a whole bunch of people with an IQ of 100,
Preferably 5000 or more, so we can assemble them into a viable town with lots of redundancy so far as functionality goes...
( e.g. Several Barbers, Several Plumbers and so on... just to be as fair as possible ! )
All the participants should also have no more than an IQ of 105 or less than 95 for peripheral IQ skills, such as Music, History or whatever...
Then you isolate them completely;
So that all that they're exposed to is the products of their own mediocrity!
All the Newspapers, Films, TV, Books... ect...
are all produced by other IQ 100 participants.
-----
The Experiment asks: What will the net effect be?
Prediction:
The Translucent Amoebae Consortium predicts that over time--
Weeks or Months; Things will start to go wrong, Refrigerators will break down, Cars will develop odd mechanical problems, and while we took pains to make sure there were plenty of technicians to handle repairs of "this sort" -- there will always be problems that fall outside of their technical manuals or their expertise, ( as it were ).
Thus; these things will go unrepaired, and since new products must be manufactured by IQ 100 Participants, they may very well go un-replaced!
In Short- We predict a slow and steady decline in their standard of living...
The Big Question is though- How Far Will They Sink...???
We were thinking initially that they would fall back a hundred years or so...
But the more we thought about it, the more we began to realize that at every technological phase of humanimal culture; All innovations were brought about by genius'.
Without -Them- The IQ 100 Town would continue to spiral down to a Chimpanzee like Social Structure!
Even making Flint Arrowheads were the product of genius' ( of their time ( and ours! ) )
Such that you might be able to teach an IQ 100 participant to make a flint arrowhead,
they will never figure it out on their own, irregardless of how familiar they are with flint arrowheads, The manufacture of such items is just too complicated...! ( Honestly ! )
----
What does this mean?
Should IQ 100 Citizens be allowed to Vote?
Should we even be trying to educate them?
Should they just be trained for Menial Labor?
Should IQ 100 Humanimals be sold & bought like toasters?
----
After this Experiment has run it's course to it's Logical Conclusion...
After say 5 years --- ( long before they're reduced to howling at a full moon )
It will be clear that we'll have to seriously rethink our attitude towards "Normal" People.

Even making Flint Arrowheads were the product of genius' ( of their time ( and ours! ) )
Such that you might be able to teach an IQ 100 participant to make a flint arrowhead,
they will never figure it out on their own, irregardless of how familiar they are with flint arrowheads, The manufacture of such items is just too complicated...! ( Honestly ! )
----
What does this mean?
Should IQ 100 Citizens be allowed to Vote?
Should we even be trying to educate them?
Should they just be trained for Menial Labor?
Should IQ 100 Humanimals be sold & bought like toasters?
----
After this Experiment has run it's course to it's Logical Conclusion...
After say 5 years --- ( long before they're reduced to howling at a full moon )
It will be clear that we'll have to seriously rethink our attitude towards "Normal" People.

Magic Trick: The Disappearing Elephant
This is kind of a Kitschy presentation...
The Amazing Retardo is introduced.
The Amazing Retardo comes out:
He stumbles and his tall hat falls off, releasing dozens of small birds.
He stands, ignores the hat that has rolled across the stage and begins...
"Valkum, Laydites hent Handelmuchs! Dos Ubenink, ul Vul Nek uh Hulobumd-- ISUHBEER!"
A shapely aid comes out with a carnivalish painted sign that reads:
[ The Amazing Retardo & His Disappearing Elephant! ]
She places the sign on a tripod facing the audience.
The Amazing Retardo looks at her suspicously.
She leaves the stage.
The Amazing Retardo exits for a moment, and brings out an Elephant.
While the quality of The Elephant's 'Costume' is impectable, it is clearly not an actual elephant, but two small boys; on stilts, in an elephant costume. As i suggested; The costume is of the highest quality, and this alone is worth the price of admission. The Elephant comes out in a respectable manner, and lead by 'confederates' in the audience, It is wildly applauded.
The Elephant begins to misbehave.
"Bleiz, Bleiz, Dos Hulbamd oz Pary Fanakie, Bleiz-- Nes Ubloz!"
The Elephant stamps around the Stage, trumpeting and rolling it's trunk up and down! It's ears flap back and forth, It's tail raises and twitches...! It is also designed so that its eyes can roll freely in its sockets so that when the confederates begin to take flash photos, The Elephants eyes burst open, so that the audience can see it's whites, as it continues to go Berserk...!!!
The Amazing Redardo struggles with The Elephant, continuing to plead with the Audience to behave itself...
After several mintues of this PrePerformance; The Elephant quiets down.
A small crew of beautiful girls come out, and begin assembling a levitated ( Raised ) Platform that the audience can clearly see under. They then roll out a staircase, and The Amazing Retardo leads The Elephant onto The Platform. It continues to stamp and trumpet, but is following instructions.
The Staircase is rolled away.
To calm The Beast, The Amazing Retardo feeds it ( clearly ) shedded newspapers, which it grabs with it's trunk and stuffs into it's mouth...!
Then The Girls lift up The back, sides and front of the surrounding box. It is clear that there is no trickery with the platform, or the cage.
It is also arranged and constructed so that The Girls can roll the cage & platform around, so that the audience can see all sides of it, after it's been assembled.
The Elephant can still be heard stamping and trumpeting inside.
The Amazing Retard instructs the girls to rotate the cage 180 degrees, and after which, he opens a circular window on the back the takes up about one third of the back.
The doors to this window open outward, and fold into thirds, accordian style, and rest, protruding slightly away from the back of the cage.
From this view, the audience can see The side of The Elephant, stamping and trumpeting inside.
The cage is rotated to view The Front again.
The Amazing Retardo takes out a 'Magic Wand' and snaps it sharply against the cage.
Nothing happens.
He strikes it again & again, then on his hand, then on the floor, and again against the cage, while The Elephant inside continues to stamp and trumpet.
Suddenly The Wand Explodes like a Roman Candle, and The Amazing Retardo simultaneously shrieks "OparGahdDeborAh!" & releases a latch, so that a Window; just like the one on the back of The Cage-- Springs Open.
The Stamping, Trumpeting and Elephant are gone.
The Amazing Retardo steps around the cage, waving the wand, showering the stage with sparks, when he reaches the back, he can be clearly seen threw the two windows, and points The Wand so that sparks shoot through the cage, out towards the audience. His legs and feet are clearly visible from under the platform the whole time.
The Roman Candle Wand Sputters out, And The Amazing Retardo turns to the Audience and announces with great pride: "Ta DA!"
It is clear from looking at the apparatus that The Elephant has simply been disassembled and the two boys are crouching out of view, since there is plenty of space to the sides of the window for them to hide.
Then-- There's a creaking, groaning sound, of wood twisting and breaking.
The sides of The Cage Fall away, then The Front, Then The Back shears off, falls vertically down, then falls over, flat.
Then The Raised Platform collapses as well.
There is only flat boards covering the stage. There are no boys & no elephant to be found.
The Amazing Retardo looks upon the fiasco with horror, then turns again to the audience, and repeats his previous finally, only this time; flat, and with a hint of embarrassment.
"ta-da."
-----
Music.
-----
How was it done:
( In Magick Ink )
---
It's done simply with a trap door, but the two boys don't use it until the cage begins to fall apart,
then as the back drops straight down, then over,
the trap door opens at just the right place,
and they are pushed through, along with the disassembled elepant; rolled up into a compact bundle.
Previous to exiting through The Trap Door; They are standing in position, on the outside of the cage, Hidden partially by the rear window's door on 'that' side, and partially by the angle of the cage in respect to the audience... via a simple 'Invisible' Revolving Door, built into the back of the cage, which also contains a extending platform for them to stand on.

Universal Hieroglyphical Language
From: 12 Ideas that May Change The World
Universal Hieroglyphic Language
One of the things that people -now- will have to get more and more used to is that young people of the future will be illiterate.
But this is not a bad thing, since our world culture will simply revert to the preliterate oral culture that we were back in our early agricultural development...
Back then; Genius' were writing down stories and then they'd be forgotten, so a 'Stop-gap' solution was developed called 'Writing'.
Writing is now, no longer necessary.
Now we have Video and Computers and DVD's and so on...
So we can become a culture of Live Story-Tellers again.
But--
There is a small problem: And that's Airports and Billboards.
So as Globally Addressed Stop-Gap Solution to this:
We'll have a Universal Heiroglyphical Writing System that anyone in the world can read!
It may be used on Signs all over the world without confusion...
On the Internet ( or What will replace the Internet ( the Sooner, the Better! ) )
And Books ( Some books may still exist )
Nouns will just be themselves... Cartouches will surround Peoples Proper Names...???
A system of Phonetic Symbols will be introduced and taught so that Names and Place may be pronounced correctly...
Then you'd have symbols of verbs and pronouns and adverbs...
and all kinds of new modifiers to subtly change 'BaseWords' such as 'Muscle' into any specific Muscle or Auto-Part or what-not...
The new Hieroglyphical System has to be just as Precise & Expressive as any 'Usual' Language...!
So all you Linguists out there... Get Cracking on this...!!!

What The World Needs Most: A Tricorder...!
From: 12 Inventions that May Change The World
Let's Build a Tricorder...!
My understanding of what a Tricorder is;
Is a device that allows the user to 'See' along the entire Electromagnetic Spectrum--
It seems to me that this would be a fairly simple innovation,
Most of the familiar frequencies would be easy enough,
And you'd only have to arrange all the sensors into a matrix, or array along one side of the handheld device.
---
How useful would such a tool be...?
Well- you'd be able to see through just about anything...
And you'd also be able to identify any element that you were examining,
and the computer that interpreted all this information, would probably also be able to figure out which alloys &/or molecules you were scanning...
So that looking EFFECTIVELY for bombs or harmful recreational drugs would be as simple as tasting all the dips at a friends wedding reception with a clean popsicle stick...
Which may-be why such a device has not be invented yet...!
---
Think of how annoying it would be if the police could see everything you were carrying, just by pointing their Tricorder at you from the anonymity of their un-marked police car...?
They'd be able to see into your house, or right into your body...!
---
As a sidenote to this; or digression...???
It might be possible to invent a more 'focused' device that instead of scanning the entire electromagnetic spectrum, it would instead simply be able to construct pictures from the ubiquity of microwave radiation from cell-phones & their ilk...!
A hand-held or wall mounted device would be able to take "X-ray" images of you at airports, supermarkets or grade-schools it a perfectly harmless and passive manner...!
---
This is practically the same as a Phase Array Camera...

A Quasi; Introduction
Preface:
i've been having a lot of trouble creating an Introduction for The Gematria & The Cabbage Codes... Which may also include an Introduction, by proxy, for The ScreenSaver Hypothesis, Which is closely related to These Other Topics...
The Cabbage Codes are a subset of The Gematria, And is used as A Tool for Exploring The Validity of The ScreenSaver Hypothesis...???
The Trouble is; i am having Too Many Ideas & Thoughts regarding these Rubics and they have created an unentanglible tumult in my head, where an incessant party of churlish, drunken & screaming hamsters is taking place, day & night, anyways...!!!
So i've decided to simply list all my thoughts on this, and let the reader sort them out... as they deem appropriate for their application.

An Inventory of
Introductory Anagnorrisis'
For The Gematria,
The Cabbage Codes
& The ScreenSaver Hypothesis.
Part One: Introductory Introduction
- The Principle Axiom of The Cabbage Codes is that they are intended as a tool, by which hidden secrets may be discovered.
- These Secrets; May, or May Not, have been inserted into The Fabric of Our Universe.
- If they were inserted; They were placed here by The Xi Point Six Controllers;
Who are, According to The Lexicographical principles of Various Religions & Scientific Disciplines;
Either: The Gawds, Angels, The Dao, Dead Ancestors
or The Will of Gravity. - From this: We must assume that Ordinary Humanimals & A Ubiquitous Preponderance of Foolishness may not in any way be responsible for The Messages that The Cabbage Codes Reveal.
These Messages are being extracted from
The Fabric of The Universe Itself,
And as such;
Are as True as True can be.
Part Two: Foundations of Reality
- The Fundamental Question that The Babynous Cult asked, was:
Are we living in A Universe that is so Cruel;
That it allows us to be Aware that we are Robots? - We might assume that we are, or that we are not.
- If we are;
Then the universe is a randomly chaotic place, accidental in nature, put here for no particular reason, with no-ones consent or forethought;
and that, if we were to survive physical death, and live on, by way of a damp & disagreeably odorous fistula;
Somewhere else--
It would be for no particular reason, merely to extending the futility of our intrinsic hopelessness. - In essence:
We would live in a world of Infinite Remiss & Callous Brutality. - But this may suggest that someone could care,
but doesn't--
And this is overstating the case that there is someone in The Universe that is Genuinely Sentient...! - While it is actually proposing that if we are Robots,
Then it is undoubtedly the case that The Gawds are Robots as well... - And Consequently; Any of us that believes that we are experiencing a Legitimate Sense of Awareness--
Is simply mistaken.
Robots do not think.
They do not posses Freewill.
They are not Conscious.
It is merely an Unfathomable Illusion. - The Other Case is that We are Not living in such A Universe.
We are not Robots. - How this could be is The Grand Dilemma between Scylla & Charybdis.
By examining This World & Applying all that Reasoning offers us;
Freewill simply can not exist.
Either we make Decisions based on specific reasons delimited by The Mechanics of Thought,
or Those Decisions are derived from The Random Noise of electrons scraping their knees together. - Plus; There is no instrumentation for The Residual Effects of Consciousness.
- All Evidence & Reason point to the Fact that We Are Robots...
- ...Except that we Deny it.
- Allowing for this;
The Translucent Amoebae wonders:
Can we know anything about The True Reality? - ( The Reality that allows for Things like Freewill, Consciousness & The Swirliness of Being...!!! )
Part Three: The Kabbalah & Such
- One; Completely UnWarrented, Assumption that must make at this time, is that--
Yes; We can find out things about The True ( Relatively True ) Reality. - [ This idea of Relative Truth's is provided;
Given that The Riders of The Golden Hamster insist that we are Living within an Infinitely Nested Continuum of Realities;
Such that;
If there is a Really, Really True Reality,
It is utterly boring & inconsequential,
Consisting, no doubt, of a single thing &/or rule,
from which everything else follows--
Necessarily. ] - What is very annoying;
Is that, considering how long Humanimals have been trying to discover some of these elemental truths,
There has been virtually no Successful Revelations...!!! - Any that have been claimed, are notoriously lame &/or subject to endless revisions & amendments.
- But;
Those of us that are looking, remain hopeful. - There are undoubtedly Scientifically Oriented Messages hidden within the DNA of every life form;
There may be Pithy Aphorisms etched along the edges of Snowflakes;
Or Clever Riddles scratched on The Surface of Every backwards spinning Electron. - We have only to listen attentively to The White Noise of Waterfalls
or Radio Static to hear The Whispered SubRosabiddling of Angels,
Fairies or Bulbous Headed Aliens. - Might we;
If we would or could,
See The Shimming Gestalt on The Surface Oils of a Steaming Bowl of Mulligatawny Soup...? - Are we Sufficiently Attentive to Discern The Tidings of Fractious Rabbits,
Dancing Some Early Morning,
on an Undisclosed, Dew Covered Lawn? - Has anyone ever taken The Lesson of Horton;
And listened with all their might;
To the Abstruse Growls of Sagely Tardigrades...??? - Many of these Secrets Require an Expensive Magnifying Glass,
Morbidly Obese Telescope or
The Very Quick Astute Eye of Flash Photography
to discern them... - Amoung The Many Shiny Utensils that have been tried,
Is The Qabbalah. - The Origins of The Kabala may stretch back Tens of Thousands of Years,
Long before The Assyrians, The Egyptians or Atlantis.
It is thought by some that Grand Civilizations existed here on Earth such a long time ago, that no physical artifacts of them remain to this day.
But legends of their existence, and their lore, have been passed down to us by a few Coadjutors, Druids, Shamans & Freemasons. ( et. al. ) - The Modern Jewish Cabbala is a shadow of what it's ancestral roots may have been...
These Ancient Civilizations may have actually been able to give life to a Golem or Create Gravity Resistant Castles by merely evoking the power of Language,
as spoken by our Creators.
Maybe that's why they were destroyed...??? - Now--
The Kaballa is a Theosophy of Mysticism,
Indulging in The Esoteric Occult Practices of Thaumaturgical Magick & The Chicanery of Astrology. - Aside from these expressions of Sanguine Tomfoolery;
Is very interesting Subset of The Qaballah--
And that is: The Gematria. - The Gematria is a tool box of impedimentae that are designed to Scratch into The Very Fabric of The Universe and Reveal What The Gawds have Left There...!!!
- It may be beneficial at this moment to take a moment and define what is meant by Gawds.
- Whether you believe this or that;
It is ( presumably ) Undeniable that, At Least, You Exist,
and that Existence demonstrates that The Universe Itself Exists,
Which may be nothing more that just you,
And that Since the Universe Exists,
And that you are Aware of it's Existence--
That Necessitates some Category of Order,
Which we will call Gawd. - From time to time; i tend to exchange this Appellation with 'Angels', 'Fairies', 'The Walking Fish People'
or The Xi Point Six Controllers...
Which refer-- particularly to;
The Infinite Continuum of Nested Fractional Realities. - It has also occurred to me recently that while we were specifically created to find & recognize profoundly camouflaged patterns...
It may be that we find Perfectly Valid ResGestae's that were NOT inserted into This Universe by The Xi.6 Controllers...!!! - This may be
WHY WE ARE HERE...!!! - It may be that we were designed to
SEE THINGS
THAT THE GAWDS CANNOT...!!! - It may be that our Purpose;
Our Functionality,
Is to find Truths that The Gawds; Know, or Suspect,
are here--
Within this Artificially Fabricated Reality...
But are too Subtle, or WEIRD...!!!
For them to find...!!! - This certainly seems to make sense doesn't it...??? What are WE
( The Best & Brightest Humanimals, The only ones that really 'Count'...! ( ? ) )
Most driven to do...? - Find, or Invent, Crazy Truths.
- The Essential Functionality behind The Gematria is to discover the secret order that is hiding between the gaps in all Words.
- The Kaballah steps off from Genesis when Jehovah Created This World, Merely by 'Saying' things like; '"Let there be Light!" and there was light'... The Quabbalists feel that it was the POWER in the WORDS that made this possible... While a more reasonable explanation ( Assuming this account in Genesis is Accurate ) would be that it was the Mojo in Gawd that provided The Organizing Principles behind Time & Space...???
- Nevertheless; We are all ( ??? ) in agreement, ( Gematria Enthusiasts; at least ) that there is alot of Mysterious & Beguiling Information or Information like material hiding between the gaps of Words & Phrases...!!!
- Whatever, Wherever The Authority / Validity for The Gematria comes from; It is an Amazing Study.
- In it's simplest form; You assign a Numerical Value to Each of The Letters of The Alphabet, and then treat these values Arithmatically when comparing Words...
- That is; The Simplest Gematria may be A equals the value of One, B equals the value of Two, C equals the value of Three and so on... Until Z equals the value of 26.
- Such that "Godly"; G = 7, O = 15, D = 4, L = 12, Y = 25 Which adds up to 63.
- "Deity" also adds up to 63, As does "Saint", "Divine" & "God-Like"...!
- Please examine the web-site link in vi, and it's many additional cross links to discover more amazing equivalences & sums...!
- Classic Jewish Gematria allows for additional layers of Complexity, so that A may equal 1 or 10 or 100...
- Some of us think that this is cheating...!
- But-- We do allow that Gematria's are able to diverge from this simplest form... When A = 6, B = 12, C = 18... You get A Truly Amazing Gematria Key that forms many Unbelievable Equivalences...: Mark of Beast = 666, Sorceries = 666, Necromancy = 666, Witchcraft = 666, Horrors = 666 Treacheries = 666, Stubborn = 666, Unruly = 666, Insanity = 666, Illusion = 666, Book of the Dead = 666, Son of Sin = 666, A Perdition = 666, Lustful = 666, Falling Away = 666... Plus Computer = 666 & Santa Claus = 666...!!! Plus many, Many other Astounding Correlations.
- When you allow that A = 9, B = 18, C = 27... Then Lucifer = 666, But so does Jesus...!!!
- These Highly Uncontrived Gematria are sometimes called 'English Ordinal Gematria' But when a Gematria diverges even further from equilateral spacing, They are called Calibrated Gematria's. These allow The Alphabetic Characters to take on any Integer Values, Even Negatives. The Validity, or Authenticity, of The Regular Ordinal Gematria are derived from that Simplicity AND The Amazing Parities & Sums... Calibrated Gematria receive their Veracity from A Multitude of Stupendously UnImaginable Correlations, Equivalences & Sums...
- Another form is to allow the Alphanumeric Characters to form a Shape, Such as an Hour Glass. i think these are especially Intriguing &/or Convincing... But they typically only allow for One Target Equivalency.
- You may also take on completely different approaches, such as Creating a Numerical Base; Such as Base 2 ( Binary; using just 0's & 1's )
or Hexidecimal; Base 16, that uses Zero through F ( F = 15 )...
If you take on a Base 26, and use just The Alphabet,
you can form a new Mathematical System that is entirely Consistent,
and Does Not Use a Zero...!!!
( Except to mark the spot between -A & A... )
Using this approach,
One would be A, Two would be B, Three would be C,
... TwentySix would be Z,
and TwentySeven would be AA.
This Unitfication would work just like our Conventional Decimal System,
such that The A on the Right would be One Unit,
and the A on the Left would be One Unit of 26's.
AAA ( 703 )would be One unit of 26 times 26, or 676,
Then One Unit of 26's, and One Unit.
676 + 26 + 1 = 703
As far as using this system for Gematria,
Each Word would have a Unique Value,
So there wouldn't be any Word Equivalences,
But there could be Plenty of Phrase Equivalences...!
Words also tend to have very large Values...!
"Jesus" = 4,671,049.
666 = "YP"... ???
But it's something to think about... ( ??? ) - An even Weirder form is one i call; 'Aleph'.
For this system, Each Value is built up from an Alphanumerical sequence starting on the right with "a".
The next Column to the Left may be either "a" or "b",
Then the Next Column may be "a", "b", or "c"...!!!
Counting would look like this;
a, aa, ba, aaa, aba, baa, bba, caa, cba ...
Using this system; "jesus" would have a Value of 330
and 666 would equal "ebbbaa".
- The Cabbage Codes were originally created in Response to The Bible Code by Michael Drosnin. Without even reading the book, but browsing through a copy at a bookstore, i found his method of Exploiting The Gematria to be Amazingly Contrived & Disingenuous... So i wanted to find a method by which i could 'Discover' Keys that were Startlingly UnContrived Looking and would Reveal Numerous Illuminating Correlations & Sums...
- Originally; The Templates i used were of the A = 1, B = 2, C = 3 form, so that The Resulting Cabbage Code Keys would start with Some Indeterminate Value, But proceed thereafter with Regular Spacing. These Values would then remain 'Locked In' throughout the Interpretation... Unlike The Bible Code Method which typically uses Several Different Keys for each Message...!
- My thinking was, and remains, Who; But the Great Cabbage could leave messages in Every Discoverable Text that i would Search...???
- These Messages that i Find-- Must Be...!!! -The Undeniable, Incorruptible, Unfakable Memorandums from The Xi.6 Controllers...!!! ( aka: The Great Cabbage )
- i later discovered that i could use other templates, such as this one for John F. Kerry that uses a template that considers the Alphabetic Characters Symmetrical & Rotational Attributes...!!!
- The Initial Template that's used to 'Shape' the final Key may take on just about any form you can invent...!!!
- Does this make The Cabbage Codes; More -or- Less Credible...??? i'm thinking that it shows that The Cabbage Codes have a Near Infinite Number of Viable Solutions... But it should also be kept in mind that there are Undoubtedly a Full Infinity of NonSolutions...!!! It just goes to show you how Flexible The Great Cabbage is...!!! It's easy to come up with One Definitive Solution to a Problem, But - Who But...! - The Great Cabbage could Conceive of a way to Encrypt all these Wonderful Truths into The Very Fabric of Our Universe in Such a Way so that there would be So Many Different, Supremely Elegant Ways to Access them...!!! This is the Very Anti-Thesis of Conventional Religious Thought, and Even Satanic Thought, which Insist that their Way is The Only Way...! The Great Cabbage Says: There are Many, Many Windows to Peek through to See My Illustrious Glory...! How could it Not Be True...!!! ( ??? )
- Another approach for The Cabbage Codes; Is to allow for A Calibrated Cabbage Code Key to align itself with Multiple Targets... Such as this one for The George W Bush Administraion. This Key is Arguably more Contrived than The Shaped or Regular Gematria Key's, But i think it more than makes up for it in Equalities and Sums.
Part Six: The ScreenSaver Hypothesis
- Once you've come to accept that We Are living in a Universe in which There Are Angels or Gawds or Transdimensional Controllers that may, or may not, be inserting Useful, informative messages; Alienating, cryptic missives; Adoring, edifying epistles; or nothing more than Dust for us to Sweep up... We are left with the underlying Third Estate; which is that Our Reality is a Sub-Set of A Greater Reality-- Where the Gawds Live.
- The ScreenSaver Hypothesis is an Exploration of How True or How Much can we Deduce ( If Anything...??? ( ! ) ) About this True(r) Reality...???

This is a TOTALLY FAWKINGLY AMAZING Presentation
by Wm Jas Tychonievich
of The Simplest Gematria Key: A = 1, B = 2, C = 3 ... Z = 26
You can boost this Key by various factors and All The Equivalences will Still Work,
A = 6, B = 12, C = 18 ... is another Common Variation...
In which:
Jesus = 444 - Yshua = 444 - Messiah = 444 - Cross = 444
Gospel = 444 - God Son = 444
---
Heaven and Hell = 666 - Mark Of Beast = 666
---
Unfortunately: Lucifer = 444
---
The King Jesus = 888 - God Son Jesus = 888 - Jewish Messiah = 888
Jesus Gospel = 888 - Jesus Cross = 888 - Jesus Is Arabian = 888
Jesus In A Tomb = 888 - Who Is Jesus = 888 - Messiah Jesus = 888
Live In Christ = 888 - The House Of God = 888 - The Trinity = 888
King Of The Sabbath = 888 - The Lion Of Judah = 888
---
Jesus Is Lord = 906 - Jesus Is Alive = 906 - Christ Jesus = 906
Lord Of Hosts = 906 - Son Of The Lord = 906 - Holy Spirit = 906
Jesus And Father = 906 - LOVE IS THE LAW = 906
--------
While A = 9, B = 18, C = 27 ... Results in both Jesus & Lucifer = 666...!!!
This is another AMAZING Presentation by Tychonievich

Results in a whole slew of UNBELIEVABLE Equivalences...!!!

The Cabbage Codes:
-----------------
Did this have anything to do with Harriet Mier's Resignation...???
-----------------
These three Cabbage Codes are Single Target Creations,
In which The Keys are Amazingly UNCONTRIVED,
Which was one of The Original Principle Proofs of Authenticity...!
Later; It was allowed, By way of The Super Evil Approach,
That Multiple Targets were a More Convincing Proof...! ( ? )
Not Cabbage Codes as such...
Part Eight: Additional Minutae & Bagatelles
Items that i meant to include in the main body,
but couldn't quite fit them in,
despite my usual ebullience towards an incorherent & meandering compositional strategy...
- One thought that i had was that The Gematria is a Study of Alchemical Cryptography--
- And that there are Various other Disciplines that may be grouped along with this...
- Such as UnCodes; Which are a method of encrypting a plain text so that it appears to be thoroughly disguised, but is in fact, easily read-- If you know how to read it.
- A simple form of this; Is select letter forms that closely resemble another letter form, when it is rotated 180 Degrees... Such as 'V' for 'A', or an 'a' for 'e'. When you have all the necessary Letter forms properly indexed, Then you type up your message in a normal manner using these replacement characters... ( you may also wish to Right Justify the text, so that when viewed 'Wrong Side Up' it looks 'Normalized'...! ) The plain text will then look quite heavily camouflaged, but is easily read by your Coconspirator by simply turning the page upside-down.
- It might be interesting to see how these replacement words correspond to 'Normal' words... Such as; Do any Normal Words form Other Normal Words when Inverted...???
- If so; This may be a Valid source of Gematria like Associations...???
- Another thing i was considering, as it would apply to The Gematria; is how Pattern Recognition is used to see things that may not be genuinely sensible...??? ( ! )
- i have longed believed that Our Brains are designed to process information in only one way, and that is-- This is that.
- By that i mean; one Neuron is turned on, and then activates another Neuron sitting next to it. "I'm on; 'Meaning This is Important', Then you should be On too..."
- And that is the basis for Pattern Recognition. One something is sitting next to another something, and somewhere in your brain, for some inexplicable reason, it thinks that those two somethings are related to one another-- When, very probably, they are-- Which allows us to pick out lions that are hiding in trees, But it also allows us to see Associations between word sums when they really aren't there...!!!
- Does this mean that The Gematria is alot of Hooey...!!!
- Oddly; i suspect that it merely infers that when you find A LOT of Associations within a Searched Gematria SubText... Then dispite the logic of it being a lot of Hooey... Maybe it's Not...!!!
- It could be that there are a lot of things that would seem, to the skeptical eye, as 'merely' statistically coincidental... But-- Are really Insignificant representations of Genuinely Anomolous Phenomena...
- That is; You're looking for a 'Spike' in the Data to prove that it's far beyound the realm of a Statistical Burb... and Maybe that Spike isn't there... But the Data is still Genuinely meaningful in it's apparently 'Goofy' form...!!!
- This Phenomena may be covariant to The Man walking through the woods, Searching for a Tree, So that he can prove, to his own Satisfaction, that he is in a Forest...! ( !! )
- Which itself is a paraphrasing of ( or Parable ) expounding on the idea, that is Obvious to some of us; That Miracles are not so rare as to be Apocryphal-- But rather; They are so wearifully common that are wholly overlooked.
- Sometimes the truth doesn't hit you over the head, Sometimes it just lies there, trying; for whatever reasons, to be just a little bit hidden... So that it can only be seen by someone that is 'Prepared' to see it...!!!
- This is kind of the thinking behind much of what is generally known as 'Spiritual Knowledge'... This sort of Information is thought to be 'UnTeachable'...!!! A Spiritual Master may prepare you for Satori, But Only You can Correctly Interpret your Zen Koan in just the right way to finally experience Enlightenment...!
- Another thing about Pattern Recognition is that it depends on The Structural Necessity of Order that Really does Bind Things Together.
- The Kooky Thing is: Order exists only as a Subjective Observation.
- Everything in the Universe is Exactly What It Is.
- And by that; i mean-- Nothing has an Intrinsic Property of either Orderliness or Randomality.
- That's something that we 'Stick On' things in order to Classify them.
- To make them "Pattern Coherent".
- Once something has been Classified, and Named; It is then a Real Thing.
- But it was Always a Real Thing...!!!
- We can take The Most Randomized Collection of Data, and Force it to fit into a Finite Expression of Defined Attributes. Every Wave Form is a Collection of Simpler Wave Forms, and can be Disassembled with Fourier Analysis. Each of those Curves can then be broken down into Segements of Circles. Exactly. Not Approximately, But to the Greatest Degree of Precision that you wish to Apply...!!!
- What does this mean?
- It may mean that everything we think of as meaningful, Is only meaningful to us. Not the Universe. The Universe sees everything is an Infinitely Intermediate State of Simply Being.
- What if Our Brains were specifically Designed by The Xi.6 Controllers to Exclude The Middling Truth from all Dichotomies. So that we Could ONLY See The World in terms of it's False Extremes... That are Necessary to Percieve all of 'Our' Patterns... ( !!! )
- This way of thinking is so Wrong, that The Gawds, after many years of Special Training, CanNot Master it... So they created An Entire Universe, Populated by Deeply Insane Humanimals that see Everything EXACTLY WRONG.
- But in doing so; We can see & experience things that ARE IMPOSSIBLE...!!!
- And consequently; The Gawds can take from our experiences, which have been 'Filtered' through this Implausibility Sieve, and add these Phenomenological Widgets, that are Invisible to their Eyes, to Their Greater Heirarchy of MetaTruths.
- For fun...??? ( Or something else... )
- If all we can see are Impossible things...
- The Truth will very much be hidden from us forever.
- It's been suggested that Insane People ( Those WE Label as Insane ) can see things that we can't... And maybe these 'Insane-Insane Things' are 'The Truth'... Which they will never be able to convey to us...???
- After all; It's The Paranoid Schizophrenic's that Think that The World Makes Sense...???
- One of the most Illusive Questions we can posit is; What is The Functionality of Knowing Things?
- And-- Isn't it curious that of all the trees that were forbidden to Adam & Eve, Was The Tree of Knowledge...??? ( ! )
- i've also been thinking about Language lately.
- Several years ago; There was a program, a very simple program, written in BASIC, to be used on Computers that had 16K of Memory built into them... Called "Eliza".
- This program allowed The User to 'Talk' with Eliza; A Psychiatric Counselor, about just about anything that you wanted to discuss.
- Alot of People thought that this program was The Big BreakThrough in Artificial Intelligence, That it effectively passed The Turing Test, which meant that it was Genuinely Conscious-- By any reasonable standard that we could apply...!!!
- But of course; It wasn't.
- It was a very Clever, Very Dumb Program that could be 'Thrown Off' quite easily, and never really contributed anything meaningful to the conversation.
- So the other day; i was reading in a book on 'Fermi's Paradox' that Language is one of the final 'Tricks' that allowed us to become Tool Using Sapiens... And that Without Language-- We would be no smarter than Chimpansees.
- At first; i thought-- No Way...! We'd still be plenty smart, even without being able to label everything... But now i'm thinking... That DOES make sense...!!!
- People really are STUPID... and Language is a WEIRD TRICK that makes us SEEM really smart...!!!
- Like-- You can take a severely retarded person, with virtually no continuous memory, or analytical problem solving skills, and tack on a little bit of Language, and they seem 'Smart Enough' to hold down a reasonably well paying Civil Service Job.
- So if you could insert this same Trick into Animals... like Cats & Dogs... They would seem as Smart as We Are...!!! i really think that this is TRUE...!!!
- i also wanted to tie this into Pattern Recognition, which is what Language is...
- i was also: Thinking just the other day--
- i kind of considered this an EPIPHANY...!!!
- That we can Consciously SEE things becuase...
- Well-- First; It seems very reasonable to me that The Brain can See things, and Recognize things by taking the Impulses from The Eyes and then running groups of that data through Interpretation Sieves, Such as Colour Matchers, or Horizonal Line Identifiers, or Texture Distinquishers... and each time one of these tests is passed, it lights up all the connections in the brain that have that feature, and after a few micro-seconds, the brightest, most electrified patch of Neurons, Is what you are looking at... And this strategy could be easily adopted by a conventional Computer...
- OK. So-- The Brain can easily Identify things, But how can this process allow us to SEE things as they exist in the outside world... After all these Filters have done thier work, All that Information would be all Mixed up, and we SEE things ( projected onto a Two Dimensional Screen ( more or less )) with a 1::1 Correspondence with The Real World...???
- So my Epiphany was that while all the information is being 'Processed' There is another part of The Brain that 'Hangs Onto' The 'Picture' that our eyes are seeing, and that The 'Splotches' of Information retain Position Markers, which are then fed back to 'The Picture' so that an Overlay of 'WhatIsThat' is Matched to 'WhatYou'reLookingAt'... So that 'The Magickal Part of The Brain that is Consciousness' See's the World as it is; But Everything is Labeled.
- This doesn't explain Consciousness... But i think it is a step closer.
- If you could install this Overlay method into a Machine, then The Machine would have an Indexed Image File of Things in The World, and know what they were...??? It would be just that much closer to 'Knowing Stuff' rather than just 'Reacting to Stuff'... ( ? )
- Speaking of Information and Knowledge:
- From Lao Tzu:
- "The Spoken Dao, Is not The Etermal Dao."
- And; "Those that Speak do not Know, and Those that Know, do not Speak."
- And:
- Existence consists of Pointlessly leaping ( Transmigrating ) from one Cincatrixic Fibroid Knot of Modality to The Next, Forever & ever... Time without End--*
- Or Until Any One of The Infinite Number of Intermediate Gawds Between Us & The Kitchen Floor Decides to Upgrade to a Better Screen Saver or Desktop Computer.
----
* i was thinking awhile ago that it may be pleasant to think that we are 'somehow' living in a universe that will exist forever & ever, by means of our local Xi.6 Controllers having inserted us into a chronologically auto-recursive, toroidilic lariat, analogous to a mobius fettled shoelace; i.e., 'time-loop', that, while finite in it's dilimiters, would allow us within this seven or eight dimensional lebensraum, to experience infinity. this senario also includes provisions for reincarnating into every other person, animal, plant & lonely electron that has ever existed... ( so you get to experience everything, from everyone elses perspective...! curiously, this does not eclude freewill, since you 'are' all these 'other' people & things; simultaneously. ( the illusion of time plays into that part )
--
This of course, is undoubtedly impossible.
- i think that includes everything...
- except for all the brilliant thoughts that i had while riding the bus, and forgot to write down before my brain jumped to some other topic...
