But I forget to mention a key element in that last post. Let me get my counting straight… this is Collage Part 1
[ and it gives] us the statue facing left. Notice where his head is in relation to the log above. When the statue “spins” the opposite way…
… the *foot* is placed exactly where the head is, because in the meantime, the *2nd* photo, from 3 years in the future and reduced 50 percent in size, has been fitted into the middle of the animation. It’s the same log in both, though, and that allows the 2 in 1 relationship to occur. The head is the same as the foot!
Hucka D.:
That is a key to understanding the collage animation, yes. Good work!
bb:
The edge of the insert is where the 2 photos deviate most. They coincide most toward the middle. The small tree where the head stone is inserted in the 3rd part at the bottom/roots is most aligned — the forking branches line up past and present. Another *bridge*.
Hucka D.:
Yes, a time bridge. Past to present.
bb:
Complicated collage!
Hucka D.:
So the statue makes this bridge between past and present, and then disappears in the 4th and final pic of the animation. The statues is the same as the foot stone of the grave, but that’s just the pivot.
bb:
We’ve switched places again. You go.
Hucka D.:
The foot stone is the pivot. No.. *you* go.
bb:
The foot stone… well, you know. It stays in the same place. It is fixed, like the Ancients believed the Earth was fixed and everything revolved around it.
Hucka D.:
They do!
bb:
The Earth revolves through the 4 seasons, like we have 4 parts of the animation. This is representation of Earth.
Hucka D.:
Correct. Spinning. Circle. Circle Back.
bb:
The Head Stone is The Moon?
Hucka D.:
Could[ actually] be the other way ’round. The Foot Stone is The Moon. The Head Stone is the Earth circling around The Moon. But that would mean…
bb:
The *Moon* is the fixed position. That means we’re looking at the collage from a position on The Moon, not The Earth. But that doesn’t make sense.
Hucka D.:
It does if you’re a…
bb:
Don’t say it.
Hucka D.:
Grey.
bb:
Darnit!
