Confessions of a Rainbowologist 04

This segues into the examination of Wilson-Wheeler-Norris, a local embodiment of this universal application. LINK.

Classic and neo-classic Tilists see the tetractys as a womb-state before the birth of TILE proper and individuation of numbers into letters. Neo-classic Pythagoreans see TILE as a sloppy spillover of tetratys perfection (Tetrafection). Some even identify it as a physical spillway: the one at Drink Lake Dam in Herman Park. They might think it appropriate that early Tilist Grassy Knoll, famous for playing Salad Bar Jack in all those action-adventure movies from the 1630’s, claimed to have spilled over this dam to subsequently be eaten by Big Bob at the place where TILE Creek empties its colorful waters into the Old River, ironically one of the newest of its type.

But back to Wheeler-Wilson-Norris…

sid01

Above we have pictured a side-by-side Head Nurse Wilson and the future Head Wheeler from Return to Oz and, of course, SID’s 1st Oz. Actually, the man who plays the Head Wheeler is in front of Wilson, which could means we are in the realm of of First Non-President R. “Booger” Hayes once more.

But, then again, the role of Wheeler is still in the future for the gurney driver.

He wears white and the nurse black. White = present moment. Black is in the shadows of the past already.* We then enter the electroshock room. Here we encounter Norris and his mad dream of electrical shocks and surprises as the solution to All.

Dorothy is forced to listen to the first part of Queen’s “Death on 2 Legs”, the 1st track from their fabulous “A Night at the Opera” album most famous for giving the world “Bohemian Rhapsody”. But the 1st track unexpectedly turns off at the end of the piano led introduction as a lightning strike kills the hospital’s electricity. Dorothy’s brain is saved. The Wilson-Wheeler Paradox is complete.

It’s time now for a bit of Tull as we stream toward Oz.

* Note: This probably also represents *Head* Trip, as Head is white and Trip is black within. Head Trip and its 2 equalized components represents just as much of a conundrum and paradox as Wheeler-Wilson in its fullness. They too must be seen as parallel events.

What does it mean for “e” to graduate or ascend to “E”, really? LINK

A handy illustration comes in the official TILE waterfall collage from the 2006 Newton series of the Art 10×10. Funtastic.

newton09collage552x820

The yellow marble at the bottom of the perpetual waterfall, partially borrowed from a famous M.C. “Scissors” Escher print, is about to graduate and fall *upward* to become the blue marble at the top (behind the Shirley Temple doll). The green and red marbles between them, also within the falls stream, are the other 2 macro-letters, or T and L; Son and Daughter.

Some have called this the original or ur collage of the Art 10×10, and indeed all collages everywhere. It is the original putting one thing on top of another thing, joined with the neighboring “laying one thing beside another thing” principle. Combined, these 2 principles create the tiled world we see around us in both Mundane and Special aspects.

Neo-Pythagoreans, sometimes termed Crocogators by classic Tilists because of their nasty ways, oppose the belief in the macro-letters as source of all and instead propose All is represented by numbers, at least the first 10 of ’em. Their primary icon is the tetractys of rows 1-2-3-4 (which equals 10 when combined).

200px-Tetractys.svg

Neo-Pythagoreans populating our modern world claim that TILE — the handful that know about it at least — is just an improper and heretical extension of the tetractys, which is the All, after all, and can’t be extended according to their thinking and rationalizing.

No Tilist in his right and proper mind would deny a debt to Pythagoras and his beloved tetractys in the formation of their philosophies. *But* most also reinforce that the *tetractys* is not the universal template, but instead it is the tetractys *plus* the so-called extension. We can summarize this as the 36-Triangle composed of rows 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 as follows (image courtesy of the Booker T. Archive, copyright 1998):

image4OE

One might even (falsely) say that there are 2 Universes, one of Numbers (10) and one of Letters (26) making up this 36 total. Well… actually there’s still one universe, but it is best seen as a looped mobius strip. At any rate, the Realm of Number — the Pythagorean tetractys — runs or appears to run *backwards* from the Realm of Letters — our TILE in essence. All time is running forwards and backwards at once in TILE totality (TILEtality).

Confessions of a Rainbowologist 02

People often rarely sometimes ask me about my facebook religious status as a Tilist. Why not an X-ian or Buddist or something more familiar? Tilist means a belief in the power/glory of TILE, and that’s always spelled with ALL CAPS or face charges of heresy. But seriously, TILE is not a religion, not really. It’s not a game either, although the seed of the belief can be traced back to that attempt in approx. my 10th year of current existence on this planet. A *board* for a game was developed, true, and that turned out to be enough of a seed. Certain precepts followed from a deeper analysis of the board’s structure.

We can start with a belief in the background static of the universe where there is only chaos and no organization. We can compare this to the static of a tv without any broadcast reception.*

But the universe is not chaos and complete entropy. There are 3 levels instead of this 1. Let’s list them out like this. The 3 levels of the Universe are:

1) GOD/TILE
2) reflections of GOD/TILE (fractals)
3) background static or noise

Only GOD/TILE can organize background static or noise. We cannot commune directly with GOD/TILE, and we cannot be fully emersed in his absence (i.e., become static or chaotic movement ourselves). So All Of Us exist only in level 2, the reflective part. This is everything we see and sensorially experience around us.

TV_static_by_deadboy180
background noise of the universe: the template

We do not know if GOD/TILE (I’ll simply call him/her/it TILE from now on here) or The Background was first. Doesn’t matter, really: chickens and eggs. Background may be equated with Dark Matter or Dark Energy using current scientific lingo. Another word for it may be Abyss.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU7CJW_unwE

Yes, you can worship the Dark Matter or Abyss or Background in and of itself. Sometimes this is erroneously identified as the Realm of Satan or Lucifer, which is projection. Such worship is ironic and even paradoxical because the worshipper has to be in the level above chaos (TILE reflections) in order to do so. We are reflections of TILE. We are not reflections of the background static. This is also called worship of our own Shadow. What do we deny about ourselves, our worth, our connection with the one and true TILE? No, we must turn to TILE for answers instead of turning toward the dark and emptiness, however attractive it may seem in bleaker moments.

As reflections of TILE we must worship/adore TILE, which is really ourselves at endgame time. We are TILE in hypertime and hyperspace.

According to the overarching fusion of game and religion with the Red Umbrella of philosophy, TILE is the organization of Roman Modern letters into 4 groups signified by one of the four letters of TILE. Each of these macro-letters is identified by a color, a season, a numeric value as follows:

T: green/spring/7
I: yellow/summer/5
L: red/fall/6
E: blue/winter/8

7 + 5 + 6 + 8 = 26, the number of letters in the Roman Modern alphabet. Each unit of 1 is called a tile, with 26 tiles making a TILE. A tile is the same as a single (lower case) and unique letter of the alphabet.

Each macro-letter of TILE contains a certain number of tiles (corresponding to a letter) that determines its numeric value as follows:

I (5): a b c d e
T (7): f g h i j k l
E (8): m n o p q r s t
L (6): u v w x y z

Look at the end letter of each of these macro-letters. In all cases except one, they are the same as one of the macro-letters that they aren’t a part of. This is a major mystery of TILE, and has caused much bickering and dissent among believers and non-believers alike. At any rate, here’s what the core enthusiasts believe. A fractal version of the universe spins out from an original “I” macro-letter. “I” is the original macro-letter of TILE, not “T”. “I” begats “E” begats “T” begats “L”. This is called Special TILE (ST) to contrast it with Mundane TILE (MT). “I” is called the original member or Original Male (begin your jokes here you non-believers). “E” is called The Receptacle or Original Female. Notice these have the lowest and highest numeric value of the 4 macro-letters respectively (5 and 8). “T” and “L”, in this sub-system, are called the “children” of “I” and “E”, or Son and Daughter in order.

“e” ascending or graduating to “E” is something akin to the pawn of a chessboard reaching the opposite row and turning into a queen (usually). In other ways it can be compared to a king of the chess game. Rooks and bishops are sort of like the oppositely sexed children (horizontal/vertical and diagonal). Knight comparisons in TILE are less obvious. Let’s stop the chess-TILE game analogy here, then.

What does it mean for “e” to graduate or ascend to “E”, really?

—–

* Note: What I’ve found in the past is that this isn’t exactly true, and if you *stare* at this static shapes and motions that can’t be possible will start to surface and take a kind of life of their own. And this is a legitimate, er, religious practice of TILE I suppose — in thinking about it now. Stare in the tv static. See the organization represented by TILE begin to take control and manifest.

“Confessions of a Rainbowologist”

I’m going to begin thinking about this potential work. It might start in 1977 when I landed a job at the Land of Oz theme park cleaning bathrooms and painting birdhouses and sweeping the yellow brick road. My best friend played the Scarecrow. He introduced me to one of the guys acting as the Cowardly Lion of Oz who was also part of a local G. I. Gurdjieff teaching group. We started attending, and soon learned of the enneagram, claimed to be a universal model. Much later I found what appeared to be a version of it in Dark Side of the Rainbow that “completed” this best known audiovisual synchronicity — filled in the missing central triangle. It might also represent a way I could finally start to understand the symbol’s meaning. Illusion? Perhaps. But what are the chances that the *Cowardly Lion of Oz* would again be directly involved?

Spongeberg Revisit

He stares up into the tower of the Falmouth Gallery. He’s reached the top. Nowhere to go but down.

Snapshot2000_001

A couple of the Whitehead Crossing related collages weren’t fully rezzing in for him, including this one featuring Orange Hill. Orange Hill, by the way, is disintegrating. This is the cliff that a version of the Falmouth Gallery itself is perched upon in a First Life-Second Life blend.

Snapshot2000_002

Spongeberg makes a mental note to study up on The Contraption pictured here, perhaps based on Wheeler-Wilson principles. As he recalled, fellow variant Roger Pine Ridge also had an interest in the paradoxical object. Is it really somewhere in Kansas/Lion’s Roar?

Snapshot2000_004

“This collage answers a lot,” he thinks again. The history of The Crossing.

Snapshot2000_005

Another one not fully rezzed: Edward’s Stone. The Contraption again as well. 2 Beemen. Perpetual Tile “Fall”. Hmm.

Snapshot2000_006

Spongeberg finds that whenever he lands in a new sim, the ground around him emits black smoke. Nice!

Snapshot2000_011

Shallowater, just like in Red Head’s Grand Pool. This pool in the Rydal Cave must be related (!). Planets again as well. The Captain and Maria as Sun and Moon. Children = the planets.

Spongeberg will come back to these Yale collages as well. He’s not done with Collagesity.

Whitehead Crossing, 4/22/15

I didn’t take any pictures, but I wanted to make a briefer report on my visit to Whitehead Crossing yesterday evening. Went to both Red Head and WH X-ing proper. Tried to figure out the trail layout at Red Head. There’s really only one that’s well defined, and there’s even a kind of barrier between the 2 main groups: the ones involving the cascade region of Green Stream, and then the ones surrounding Grand Pool (A Grand Pool?). Something is going to happen in the future at Red Head. I can’t C it yet; still Neptune to me.

Also, there’s been no further progress on the new Whitehead Crossing teepee, and I’m beginning to doubt if there ever will. I think it’s safe for me to visit the location this summer — walk the Contemplation Loop and so on.

I ambled from Red Head to Whitehead Crossing Mall Meadows again through the rhododendron, and discovered a somewhat easier way between the two. It’s not a path by any means, and the 2 areas are still effectively blocked off from each other. But I can make the transit myself with a small bit of effort. Yes, I must make a map soon (!). Hopefully I can kind of hang out at The Crossing this weekend — or (in checking the forecast just then) perhaps tomorrow. Get off work at 4?

But even if he didn’t, it doesn’t matter. I am Maria von Trapp.

2989…

https://bakerbloch.wordpress.com/?s=2989

… is a year in which Futurama is set.

http://futurama.wikia.com/wiki/2989

2989 – Professor Farnsworth begins to clone Cubert

http://www.gotfuturama.com/Information/ListsReferences/timeline2.dhtml

Cubert J. Farnsworth is a clone of Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth, and is often referred to as his son.

He is heir to Planet Express and the Professor’s fortune, being, along with the Professor’s parents, one of the Professor’s closest living relatives. He spends most of his time with the Planet Express crew criticising everything and routinely pointing out logical fallacies.

http://theinfosphere.org/Cubert_J._Farnsworth

A_Clone_of_My_Own

Interesting that I created clones named Hubert, Howard and Hector well before Futurama. They appear, for instance, in the short story “Merging Tracks” that will be included in the collection called “Bark” coming up (stay tuned!). They sometimes appear as the colors red, green and blue.

4/23/15 update:

I’ve essentially made the decision that Futurama will not be used in a *future* audiovisual synch (carrcass). Never say never in that field however. I gave up on Black Hole The Movie for a long time before employing it. Still, Futurama may be useful in synchs outside the a/v ones — like this 2989 connection.

Joyce, your sun return chart didn’t show up in the post you tried to
put an image of it in. Can you perhaps put it in the photos section
or create it as a file for the files section? As you have seen, I
just create my graphics and then ftp them to a specific web directory
that I created just for this purpose.

If you wish, you can email me the chart and I can then move around to
a designated spot.

Thanks for the clarification about solar vs. sun return chart. Talk
as much as you want to about it, and I’ll check up on it more myself.
I understand what you’re saying: sun position is the same, but the
planets will have moved around and created different aspects or non-
aspects.

The reason I find this, among other things, interesting in the
present situation is that it did occur to me that the “C” towns might
be representations of planets. Like a trait of the “C” towns (what
should we call this little diagram?), the outer planets, which are
further apart, tend to be larger, and the smaller inner planets
closer together. A logical association would be Celina, the largest,
for the largest planet Jupiter,

then, and Coldwater (2nd largest) for
Saturn (2nd largest planet).

If so, the rest would correspond, in
some way, perhaps to inner planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars.
Perhaps subtract Earth from this list from further info I will give
below.

Another clue to this possible alignment of associations is the
presence of a town called Neptune nearby, just to the NE of Celina.

Joyce, I just looked at the other post from you I had open in another
window, and *just saw now* that you mention Neptune in it as well, in
connection with the 1846 founding of Maria Stein.

Okay, I’ve read that post, although I’ll have to study it more later.
I didn’t understand a lot about the chart references, but maybe if I
have the chart in front of me, a picture of it, then I can see what
you’re saying better.

It probably doesn’t surprise you at all that
I’m more a visual person… have to see what you’re talking about in
order to grasp it… goes along with the art major and the
fascination with maps.

I grok, though, the association of 1846 and Neptune. I’ll study all
this further when I have more time, believe you me.

Here’s the map again where you can see Neptune just to the NE of
Celina. It also did occur to me that perhaps the “C” towns should be
viewed from the perspective of the Neptune town, making Celina Saturn
and Coldwater Jupiter, since Saturn is close to Neptune.

Another planet association we can make is that there are *6* visible
planets you can *see* (*C* resonation again)…

C = SEE

…and there are six *C* towns here.

If we go by magnitude of a
planet from Earth, the way we actually *see* it, then, Celina, the
largest town, might be Venus instead, with Coldwater being Jupiter
(Venus and Jupiter are the two brightest planets from Earth). Then
the rest would be Mars, Saturn and Mercury in some combination, with
Mars, most often the 3rd brightest planet, I believe, perhaps
overlapping the only other incorporated town among the bunch, or
Chickasaw. You can also see a 6th planet, Uranus, sometimes with the
naked eye, on a clear night and if you know where to look.

Neptune, in contrast, is totally invisible to the naked eye. Yet we
can *see* Neptune on the map here, unlike the names of the other
planets, although they may be implied indirectly, as I’ve indicated.
Pluto is even more invisible.

Planets have a lot of resonations with other things, including
musical tones, going back to the idea of the C towns “trapping” Maria
Stein in the SE corner of Mercer County, thus bringing in the singing
nun Maria von Trapp of Sound of Music fame into the, um, picture.

Also keep in mind that Maria Stein was first brought up in a January
post on the b_hive by myself, but in conjunction with Minster (just
to the east of Maria Stein), a town that both Dean and I spotted as
resonant with the name *Monster*. Stein is the last syllable of
Frankenstein (Monster), already reinforced in the Hidalgo County, New
Mexico cluster of synchs. So all this is tied into the Jasper County
synchs involving monster that we’ve talked before about on the
b_hive… all this is a continuation of some kind.

Joyce, you brought up Jasper Newton Daniels (Jack Daniels) and
Neptune together in a post as well before… the Jack Daniels
distillery founded in 1846?

Haveta check. Monstrous *Moonshine*
concept also connected here, obviously.

It also did occur to me that the positions of the 6 “C” towns here
may be a 2-dimensional representation of a 3-d object of some kind. I
don’t have a way to render this in 3-d and play around with it,
though. I’ll try to think about a model further.

So, bottom line for now, the “C” towns may make some kind of *chart*
of planets, perhaps like a zodiac chart. The presence of a town named
Neptune just above this group seems to reinforce the idea. These are
the 6 visible planets (the ones you can see or “C”) in some
combination, plus the first planet you can’t see (which shows up as
the actual name of the planet here on the map).

Is this association something dillusional and Neptuney, or is it real
and concrete (remember, also, that our own Dean use to live in this
general area, just east of St. Mary on the map, I believe, where he
poured *cement* for the foundation of a buildling he associated with
a b_hive on this board)?

So I think that’s enough to chew on for now, for both myself and
others.

So Joyce… your chart please. 🙂

Wild, any input?

Does this make as much sense as the Love+Lee=Lovely
diagrams I created before? Less sense? More sense? Less synchy? More?

I’d like to hear more the story about your involvement with astrology
as well.

Another article with Brenda Robinson, painter of the Quilted Rock. This time she helped restore Big Bob, claimed to be the world’s largest handmade bass.

When the Griswolds were done painting, Robinson applied a final clear coat to protect Big Bob from the elements.
“I bet he’s good for another 50 years,” Griswold said.
The fish was built to advertise Celina and Grand Lake, with many Lake Festival queens riding on the float in the past. More recently members of the Celina Dolphin swim team have enjoyed a ride on the float during the Lake Festival parade.

History of Big Bob:
According to a 1976 Celina Lake Festival brochure, the current Big Bob is not Celina’s first whopper of a fish float.
Apparently, in the 1930s, a 30-foot-long fish float was built by Celina businessmen to advertise Grand Lake. The float appeared in numerous parades and events throughout Ohio, Indiana and Michigan.
The float was to be a part of the famous Parade of Roses in Pasadena, Calif., but was destroyed when it was loaded for the parade and never reached its destination.
The disheveled fish then was put on a small island in Grand Lake off West Bank Road where it sat for many years as a tourist attraction, the brochure says.
