[Darkthoughts]

Ahhhh, I wondered if it was colours or images!

Cool - I'm finally cracking your code :lol:

[Aesculapius]

Well, every sense eventually becomes an "image" in the mind, but yes, my primary focus of this particular point is the color scheme used.



The physical process of producing the Philosopher’s Stone involves three different color phases: the black (nigredo) phase, the white (albedo) phase, and the red (rubedo) phase. Each of these phases is also associated with a state of spiritual development. Alchemists called the process of making the Philosopher’s Stone “the Great Work.”

The Black Phase
The black phase is the longest phase in alchemy. It includes the first five operations of producing the stone: Calcination, Dissolution, Separation, Conjunction, and Fermentation. The first three operations prepare and purify the ingredients for the Stone. Conjunction brings the ingredients together to form the lesser Stone, the first form of the Philosopher’s Stone. Fermentation, the last part of the black phase, is one of the steps that purifies this lesser Stone.

All the operations in the black phase focus on forming the Stone and purifying it of most of its impurities. In spiritual terms, the black phase involves both learning and giving up false ideas. Surrendering false ideas is one of the most painful parts of the black phase, and it’s often represented by symbols of death and rotting. However, this death leads to truth and new growth.

The White Phase
The white phase lasts only one operation, the operation of Distillation. Distillation involves repeatedly heating to capture the volatile vapors, then cooling to condense the result. The alchemists associated this operation with baths and final purification. At the end of this process, the Stone is supposedly pure white, and capable of transforming impure metals into silver.

Symbolically, this phase is represented by white and silver, baths and washing, the moon, unicorns, and pelicans (which people once believed fed their young with blood sacrificed from their own breast).

The Red Phase
The red phase is the last operation, Coagulation. After this phase, the alchemists believed that the Stone would be capable of transforming impure metals into gold. This operation involved gradually increasing heat, so that the white stone would turn red and crystallize.

Symbolically, this phase is represented by the colors red, gold, and purple, royalty, phoenixes, a serpent and lion united, a King and Queen unshackled and dressed in royal robes, and most especially the shedding of blood to reach perfection.


In the Metallica video of the Bob Seger song, the video brings forth an image of work. Great Work? Like everything else, that depends on the observer.

Even the Seger song is about work.

Here I am, on the road, there I am, up on the stage...

The Cee-Lo song is obviously about werk.

It ain't work (well, actually, it is)...chopchop

Vader should be obvious. Cee-Lo dressed up like Vader as Gnarles Barkley.

Vader = black, red......white??
He needs a little more werk. :lol:


One ritual that "artists" perform is removing the head of a raven before beginning a piece of work.

Blood + Raven = The White.

'The Pretender'?

:lol: That one should be a little obvious, as well. We work in silent, mostly, waiting for that time.

E?

Aha! Infact I should have remembered the black, white, red thing - as it was part of a really interesting theory that SaraJean developed about who would be killed in Harry Potter (Black - Sirius, White - Dumbledore, Red - she was thinking either Hagrid...as his first name is Reubeus or the Weasleys, with their red hair.)

So..........The INTERNET is our Great Work?

It could have been. I mean, computers need stones to work. However, the INTERNET is full of a bunch of shit. Some good things to be learned here, but, our time spent on the INTERNET hasn't been that productive, in a relative sense.

That reminds me of a Weird Al quote from "Cable TV"....."I hooked up 80 channels and each one sucked."

[Darkthoughts]

Do you think this symbolism, in music videos, packaging etc, is always intentional? Or do you think it sometimes occurs on a subconcious level?

[Aesculapius]

I'm very certain that there is INTENT with the color scheme, especially the ones I posted here.

To what end though, is the colour scheme being used in these contexts?

[Aesculapius]

"An Iron fist quietly sits behind the velvet glove..."


Who are the members of The White Strips?

One Male and One Female.

A "Seven Nation Army"?


Revelation 12:1-5...

1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.


The "Seven Nation Army" are the Seven Kings who are loyal to the Great Red Dragon.

The "Tail of the Dragon" drew the "third part of the stars".

1/3 = 33 per cent of the sky.
Sublime. :D

There is that other 1 per cent, though. A "tolerance".

A "man-child" who was to "rule all Nations with a fist / rod of Iron."

Again..."An Iron fist quietly sits behind the velvet glove..."
(a quote from the song "The World Needs A Hero" / Megadeth)

It's The Great Work. Others know what I am talking about, they are just being quiet. I had a conversation with a State Trooper last week who is heading out to Georgia (the U.S. state) next week to make his pilgrimage to The Georgia Guidestones. Him and his "crew" are taking a month long motorcycle ride to Georgia and to see the stones. They are calling it "The Ride of the Dragon's Tail". :lol:

The Sun (Male) on the left (Anima) and on the opposing side, the right (Spiritus) is the Moon (Female). All opposing thoughts, directions, manifestations, come together as One in the Heiros Gamos (The Sacred Marraige). Some people who I have tried to get this point across to have professed with passion that this "Marraige" will never happen. We are all connected and the goal is a Conscious Co-Creation, not just on the scale of One Woman and One Man but on a "Grid covering scale". Meaning, all those connected will be able to share experiences with All. Conscious PRO-CREATION.

Their "coming together" brings about "Mond Kind". The uniting of opposites, black and white, up and down, left and right, air and water, fire and earth, wet and dry. And, they form the "cross".

To pick upon one part of your post...when it says the dragon takes up 1/3 of the stars...I always took that to mean the 12 stars on the woman's head?

[Aesculapius]

Hmm...never thought about that. I always looked at the 1/3 as 33. Also, the tail of the dragon is commonly shown with a geometric dart, which relates to 33 degrees.


Do you mean 1/3 of 12 being 4?
(4 corners?)

EDIT:
Or, do you mean the 12 stars are the 1/3?


http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n319/Obelison/europe4.jpg

[Darkthoughts]

1/3 of 12 being 4 :thumbsup:

It's all relevant either of the three ways really, isn't it.

Indeed.

[Aesculapius]

His image is The Word, a form more brilliant than fire; that not being the pure light. This LOGOS dwells in God; for the Supreme Being makes to Himself within His Intelligence the types or ideas of everything that is to become reality in this World. The LOGOS is the vehicle by which God acts on the Universe, and may be compared to the speech of man.

The LOGOS being the World of Ideas, by means whereof God has created visible things, He is the most ancient God, in comparison with the World, which is the youngest production. The LOGOS, Chief of Intelligence, of which He is the general representative, is named Archangel, type and representative of all spirits, even those of mortals. He is also styled the man-type and primitive man, Adam Kadmon.

TIME = MONEY = WORK

If Time "flies away", then those things associated with what we label as TIME will fall away, as well.

To make this a "reality" (to get rid of TIME), we as a whole must Breathe in union with a particular Intent towards a common goal, or Great Work. (cough, cough)

One of the applications being talked about that will perhaps help replace the internet is called the GIG, or Global Information Grid.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Information_Grid


Basically, this is all leading up to the Ethical question of how do we as a species "upgrade" our minds. Our minds are tools which process information at a particular speed. 24 frames per second, I believe. I'm not sure how to best describe it...moving from a Super Nintendo to a PS3? Red ray to blue ray?

Any way you want to describe it*, the mind is just a tool and to lose the mind for a better way sounds great at this point.

(What's the best way to get rid of TIME...in your perception?)

[Armand St Pierre]

We have done away with time in art and craft already.

Our imagination has been at work (http://www.ge.com/ru/en/images/410738_red_logo_140.gif) ***Just ask GE*** with these concepts for over a century now, within the most popular (and readily distributed) media.

The focus of this entire forum's adoration and intent has, and not casually, been helping facilitate this work in many a literate imagination.

The computer (really all digital media and hardware) is a perfect example of this.
The most recent and popular form that this technology has taken?....

(What's the best way to get rid of TIME...in your perception?)

Time ( that linear measurement humans think of anyway ) in my perception does not exist.
I am sorry that I was not more clear. I get the concept that you speak of , I just didnt get the connection of the music with The Wizard of OZ.

[Aesculapius]

Time is quite important in my (A)line of work. For most jobs, we have to bill by the hour, so, keeping up with how many hours I put into a particular job every day is important.

I have to make sure that my son is at school by a particular time, and that he is picked up at a particular time. He may start riding his bike to school soon, but, he still has to be at a certain place at a certain time.

Most of the time, when I am at work, I LOVE what I do. Some days I wake up and I do not want to get out of bed and go to work, however, it is usually not because I do not enjoy what I do at work; most of the time, I do not want to wake up because of lack of sleep. But, I get up and go off to work because I need to get paid.

When I am working and focused on the job at hand, the day tends to "fly by". I am in a different world when it's "Great". It can be "fun".

ON.
OZ.

Both were cities.
Both have wizards.

People often wonder why professional sports players can make so much money for playing a "child's game". They get paid so much money because of the pressure involved with their job and because they LOVE what they do. Who wouldn't LOVE to get paid for playing a game....or, to get paid for something you LOVE to do?

I mean, how many people reading this go into the office in the mornings and someone hands you a small stick while someone on the other side of the office is about to throw a small ball at you at, or near, one hundred miles per hour? And, if you can't hit it, you're fired! Plus, good baseball players hit the ball only 25 per cent of the time.

Or, if when you got into the office in the morning, all of a sudden three or four people started chasing you down and they aren't going to stop until you are laying on the floor crying. And, then you have to do this all day.

Or, if you got to the office and there was a seven foot tall dude following you around the office knocking shit out of your hand, keeping you from getting to your computer, etc...


All the while, playing sports and having FUN at what you are doing tends to send TIME on it's way.

[ladysai]

I had never thought of 'getting rid of time'.
I've always thought of time as something that just 'is'...
something that is different in each perspective it's seen from, but not something that is to be gotten rid of.
Seems to me that the idea of time being gone is synonymous with the idea of death.
An ending...actually THE end.
Time elapsed=game over.

Of course, it may be that all this is just over my head.:doh:

[Armand St Pierre]

no, there really isn't any time.

there's just right now.

But we (as a species) sure do buy into it. Mainly because we see ourselves as mortal.

It's really the best technology, or at least the most used, that we've adopted.

Like Will said, we plan our lives around it. Sometimes we see a need to fill it and sometimes it flies right by. I mean, if it weren't for Pope Gregory XIII, when the hell exactly would we be? It certainly wouldn't be a Tuesday night....or a Wednesday morning.

That's even been retrofitted for the future (the Gregorian Calendar that is).
5 and 2 baby and it's a circle that spins unfettered and unchallenged. Unless you're using digital technology or writing a story, or just using your imagination.

What happens to time if you take our mortality out of it's line?.....or at least significantly elongate it's presence in the present.
This is being attempted by people (http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/aubrey_de_grey_says_we_can_avoid_aging.html) with the means to make it a reality.
I'm guessing that our species' relationship with time is about to take a drastic turn.
"all your life is Time Magazine
I read it too. What does it mean?"

[She-Oy]

I'm really not understanding this conversation. Not here, and not at home with Will either. The statement made that humans relationship with time is about to drastically change is one Will has been saying for awhile, but if I even pretend to comprehend that, I'd be lying.

To me time is simply a measurement of something intangible.

Yes, I look at my 9-year-old and it seems as if he was 2 only yesterday. That's "time flying". I don't know where it went, but it obviously passed by minute after minute, day after day, year after year.

But to say that "time is speeding up" seems odd. Here we are living in an age where life expectancy is longer than it's ever been...doesn't that make it almost an oxymoron? We have more "time" now than ever, yet some say we have less.

And why worry about it? It's just one of those things that happens right? We don't really have any control over it, and for those you who might think we do...should we? 6 billion people able to manipulate time seems like a really bad idea to me. Or maybe that's just my excuse for not being able to understand the problem at hand...who knows.:doh:

[Jon]

Time is a tool humans use to organize. Proof of this is the use of Daylight Saving Time by those of us in the upper and lower longitudes. It saves us energy...so we use the tool of time in a different way than our equatorial friends. Do you really think the Sun or moon gives a rat's ass that I have to be at work when they are in position X?

Just my thoughts. Don't kill me.

[Darkthoughts]

The way I look at it, there is no time. It's just a concept we constructed to predict and measure nature's cycle.

You can step outside of it in your own time (head space), but you couldn't live in modern society without adhering to everyone elses shared perception of it.

But to say that "time is speeding up" seems odd.

I am not saying that time is speeding up. Actually, the opposite.

The 'heartbeat' of the Earth is in the process of moving from 7.8 (pulses per second) to.......a particular rhythm. Right now, the 'heartbeat' is very close to twelve (may already be there) and still climbing.

My guess is that the 'heatbeat' of the Earth will hit 12.8-13.2 and hold steady for a little while, then move again until it reaches 20.8-21.2.

It's like working out. You reach a point where as much as you work out, it seems that you can't make any more progress (a plateau). Then, if you keep working at it, the results start to move up again....only to plateau at a certain point. A rhythm.

While the 'heartbeat' of the Earth is steady climbing, the rotation of the Earth is slowing down. Thanks to the 4° wobble of the axis of the earth (23.5° from vertical) we have a 26,000 year procession. Some say this cycle is going to cause the Earth to STOP rotating for 3 days. After those 3 days, the rotation of the Earth will reverse. Meaning the Sun will rise in the West for the next 13,000 years. Hmm.

We saw our "leaders" celebrate this "idea" in 1999, when we moved into the current Galactic cycle.

6 Billion+ individuals (divided from the Greater Whole) manipulate time every day. It's called The Great Work, or, The Philosopher's Stone. 6 Billion+ pineal glands working constantly thanks to the geometric shape of our host planet. Each of US have a POTENTIAL to do Great Work, no matter what is produced the potential is the same. Work on it...bring it out...then take it back in for RE-Vision.

My Greater point is that we on an individual level, as below, produce a Greater Work, so above. We may just be one small number in the Greater sequence, but, our potential influence on the Great is limitless, IMO.

Perhaps we see the Eye because we are not working as a TEAM. :evil:

Right on!

I wonder if the 17mile diameter ring was designed with intent to get 11000 revolutions per second.

I think the 1's and 0's has more to do with this:

...the uniting of opposites, black and white, up and down, left and right, air and water, fire and earth, wet and dry.

On / OFF.

The number ten (10) is a 1 with a place marker: 0, meaning "void" or "empty".

That's the point of the LHC...to pull something from the "nothing".


1 - wand
0 - cup.

;)
Work that most people enjoy doing.
How about another visual aid?:lol::nana:

Since you asked, that would be 6,318 in base 10.

If you ever find a need to do this for yourself in the future you can do this:

Starting from the right of the number, break it into groups of 4 digits:
[0]110 0011 0001 1000

Then convert each group this way:

Positional value: 8 4 2 1
-----------------
1 0 0 0
8*1 4*0 2*0 1*0
--------------------
8 0 0 0
8 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 8

Positional value: 8 4 2 1
-----------------
0 0 0 1
8*0 4*0 2*0 1*1
--------------------
0 0 0 1
0 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 1

Positional value: 8 4 2 1
-----------------
0 0 1 1
8*0 4*0 2*1 1*1
--------------------
0 0 2 1
0 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 3

Positional value: 8 4 2 1
-----------------
0 1 1 0
8*0 4*1 2*1 1*0
--------------------
0 4 2 0
0 + 4 + 2 + 0 = 6

Giving: 6,318..

Which I don't think means anything at all :lol:



*EDIT* Hmmm..all the spacing is screwed up so I hope you can read this ... :unsure:

[alinda]

:thumbsup:Why didn't I think of that?:thumbsup:

:lol:

The 11000 times per second around the ring just seems to be too "perfect" of a setup with the 17 mile diameter ring, when one looks at the INTENT of the entire project...to pull something from the "nothing".

I was placed into a medically induced coma for about three days when I was fourteen. A white horse, I am familiar with. It was more like a night mare.:ninja:

[Aesculapius]

I quit.

Back off to watch re-runs of Sanford and Son and X-Files. That is much easier than "working".

Channel surf...my new job.

"channel" on the "cable"?

Awesome!!

A British physicist has claimed he can explain the secrets of the Big Bang Theory, but his controversial experiment has scientists believing he could bring about the end of the world, the U.K.'s Daily Mail reported.

For centuries, scientists have sought unsuccessfully to unlock the secrets of the Big Bang Theory — a model explaining the birth of the universe. But 63-year-old Dr. Lyn Evans of Aberdare, England, popularly known as "Evans the Atom," claims to know the answers, and will test his experiment on Wednesday by using a 17-mile-long doughnut-shaped tunnel that will smash sub-atomic particles together at the speed of light, the Mail reported.

Evans' ambitions, however, have brought widespread concern among scientists who say the experiment could create a shower of unstable black holes inside the Earth, and subsequently bring destruction to the planet.

"Nothing will happen for at least four years," retired German Otto Rossler told the Mail. "Then someone will spot a light ray coming out of the Indian Ocean during the night and no one will be able to explain it."

Thats the stuff right there, I mean the info gathered with this experiment could be fanbloodytastic, but hey the concerns could be valid here too. This is creator suff,
and while i believe we are creators, a modicum of decorum with this type of thing
would go a long way. The above article as reported by The Daily Mail/another Sun? sounds like a joke.

"Evans, the Atom"

:lol:

[alinda]

That little video you posted was funny too...It(this project) doesnt seem to be getting a whole lot of serious reporting does it?

[Darkthoughts]

The Daily Mail isn't quite a tabloid, but it's still rather celebrity/gossip orientated.

Will, I'm in the Cotswolds so I'm surrounded by white horses (Uffington for one) and all manner of arcane things such as Avebury, Stonehenge, Silbury Hill, Glastonbury Tor...you'd like it here :lol:

First beam in the LHC - accelerating science:


Geneva, 10 September 2008.
The first beam in the Large Hadron Collider at CERN was successfully steered around the full 27 kilometres of the world’s most powerful particle accelerator at 10h28 this morning. This historic event marks a key moment in the transition from over two decades of preparation to a new era of scientific discovery.

“It’s a fantastic moment,” said LHC project leader Lyn Evans, “we can now look forward to a new era of understanding about the origins and evolution of the universe.”

Starting up a major new particle accelerator takes much more than flipping a switch. Thousands of individual elements have to work in harmony, timings have to be synchronized to under a billionth of a second, and beams finer than a human hair have to be brought into head-on collision. Today’s success puts a tick next to the first of those steps, and over the next few weeks, as the LHC’s operators gain experience and confidence with the new machine, the machine’s acceleration systems will be brought into play, and the beams will be brought into collision to allow the research programme to begin.

Once colliding beams have been established, there will be a period of measurement and calibration for the LHC’s four major experiments, and new results could start to appear in around a year. Experiments at the LHC will allow physicists to complete a journey that started with Newton's description of gravity. Gravity acts on mass, but so far science is unable to explain the mechanism that generates mass. Experiments at the LHC will provide the answer. LHC experiments will also try to probe the mysterious dark matter of the universe – visible matter seems to account for just 5% of what must exist, while about a quarter is believed to be dark matter. They will investigate the reason for nature's preference for matter over antimatter, and they will probe matter as it existed at the very beginning of time.

“The LHC is a discovery machine,” said CERN Director General Robert Aymar, “its research programme has the potential to change our view of the Universe profoundly, continuing a tradition of human curiosity that’s as old as mankind itself.”

Tributes have been coming in from laboratories around the world that have contributed to today’s success.

“The completion of the LHC marks the start of a revolution in particle physics,” said Pier Oddone, Director of the US Fermilab. “We commend CERN and its member countries for creating the foundation for many nations to come together in this magnificent enterprise. We appreciate the support that DOE and NSF have provided throughout the LHC's construction. We in the US are proud to have contributed to the accelerator and detectors at the LHC, together with thousands of colleagues around the world with whom we share this quest.”

“I congratulate you on the start-up of the Large Hadron Collider,” said Atsuto Suzuki, Director of Japan’s KEK laboratory, “This is a historical moment.”

“It has been a fascinating and rewarding experience for us,” said Vinod C. Sahni, Director of India’s Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology, “I extend our best wishes to CERN for a productive run with the LHC machine in the years to come.”

“As some might say: ‘One short trip for a proton, but one giant leap for mankind!’ TRIUMF, and indeed all of Canada, is delighted to bear witness to this amazing feat,” said Nigel S. Lockyer, Director of Canada’s TRIUMF laboratory. “Everyone has been involved but CERN is to be especially congratulated for bringing the world together to embark on such an incredible adventure.”

In a visit to CERN shortly before the LHC’s start-up United Nations Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon said: “I am very honored to visit CERN, an invaluable scientific institution and a shining example what international community can achieve through joint efforts and contribution. I convey my deepest admiration to all the scientists and wish them all the success for their research for peaceful development of scientific progress.”

I may thinking about this wrong, but...

If we create the conditions of a "big bang", this creates the "primordial ooze" (the Prim), which in turn leads to the formation of galaxies with supermassive blackholes, which in turn leads to the formation of stars around the galaxies, which in turn leads to the formation of solar systems, which in turn leads to life, because we are here on a planet around a star that circles around a galaxy with a supermassive blackhole that formed some point after a "big bang"??

But....Only for a few seconds in our perception?

Would life form in that "space" in one of those galaxies and evolve to a point where they could collide atoms together and create the conditions of a "big bang", which in turn.......

Well, it's certainly a possibility.

...Some say this cycle is going to cause the Earth to STOP rotating for 3 days. After those 3 days, the rotation of the Earth will reverse. Meaning the Sun will rise in the West for the next 13,000 years. Hmm.

We saw our "leaders" celebrate this "idea" in 1999, when we moved into the current Galactic cycle.
