“He’s…

… taken the bait. He’s exploring *East* VWX Town, before he leaves to explore The Diagonal. This is something he had to do. He was afraid of lions, of tigers, of bears (especially, perhaps). Cats. The Dark Man is afraid of Cats.

2nd cat. The Dark Man drives this 2nd to the hotel.

Hucka D.:

The Dark Man remembers death through the cat or because of the cat.

—–

bb:

Sorry, Hucka D. Got involved in reading this quite excellent article about Scatman Crothers’ part in The Shining.

Hucka D.:

Catman?

bb (ignoring Hucka D.):

He is indeed The Dark Man — The Residents have that right (again) as well. Right as rain. All the movie needed was his (sno-)*cat* as an escape vehicle for Danny and Wendy. That’s all. The character was expendable after he arrived at the hotel in the cat.

Hucka D.:

Then he truly is the Catman.

bb:

I don’t know… maybe. A lot of Shiny Hare seems to be about him. He’s elevated through the synch.

Hucka D.:

We can’t talk much about that[ I’m told].

bb:

I suppose not. But The Dark Man is really the Jack Nicholson character, also named Jack in the film. When Jack *kills* Halloran (Scatman character), then he *becomes* Halloran — killer becomes killed in a type of karmic cycle.

Hucka D.:

Mobius.

bb:

The Shining, with its dark ending scene, closes up or completes or reverses what happens in 2001, Hucka D. Jack is reborn (like Bowman as super baby at end of 2001: A Space Odyssey) but darkly.

Hucka D.:

Yes. Jack is The Dark Man because he kills. The Dark Man is *cut in two*, in two ways. It’s brilliant.

bb:

I didn’t do it.

Hucka D.:

You figured it *out*.

There were pictures of my own family
In the shadows was someone watching me
He was little more than a silhouette
With a restrained feeling of regret
In one of the pictures, his, his hands are desperately clinging to his face, like maybe it was on fire and he smothered it out with his fingers, but I know, that sounds crazy

You and I

Snapshot1331_005

bb:

We must think of a town meeting, Hucka D. VWX Town… for this is VWX Town still.

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

Remember when I was going to do all those Sylver Forest interviews? I think I’d like to talk about the people/avatars directly now. There’s Coke from Rosieri — my land is caddycorner to her old land now, and is a legit “village” like hers as well. Must study her village now.

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

Key, obviously, since he owned the biggest chunk of the land I own for a long time — years. Must study his roller coasters, his art. Wonder where he is now?

Hucka D.:

He is in Limbo. He is in Heaven.

bb:

Then there’s [delete name], a long time friend. Haven’t heard from her in about 2 months, Hucka D.

Hucka D.:

Tak’n a break. From you. From your blog. From your confusion. God. Heaven. Chaos.

bb:

Interesting. Then there’s Hybuli… oh, I should say [delete name] owned property in Tyta across from the Rubi Forest from me for a long time — years again.

Hucka D.:

Last time you called a Sylver Forest meeting everyone left quite quickly. Why would a new meeting be any different?

bb:

I would empower them to the idea.

Hucka D.:

Idea of what?

bb:

Sylver Forest. They are on the Council of the Sylver Forest and that is something.

Hucka D.:

It’s just you now[ however]. Me and you.

—–

“What of the 3rd stream?”

Hucka D.:

Go take a look[ if you wish].

Snapshot1331_008

bb:

That’s another person that has an investment in the Sylver Forest: Yeo.

Hucka D.:

That stream comes from beneath the Blue Feather Gallery Annex. That’s an intersting building. Why don’t you separate it from the gallery. Delete the gallery.

bb:

The Blue Feather Gallery is about Jeogeot art and geography and makes a super complement to the Kidd Tower next to it, which contains psychic information about the old Korean Channel and Biggie and such.

Hucka D.:

Do you want to go back to Jeogeot?

bb:

I don’t think so. I thought of it before buying the Rubi land.

Hucka D.:

Hmmm.

bb:

I have time to savor Rubi now.

Hucka D.:

Yes. Put in the plan. Well, we’ll just chat. What’s new besides Rubi and the job?

bb:

We’re going to a party this weekend. Birthday party for twins.

Hucka D.:

Oh, the twins in the movie The Shining?

bb:

No. Edna’s niece’s kids. They live below her father.

Hucka D.:

On what Second Life continent is that?

bb:

It’s real life. Surely we’ve talked about Edna and her family before.

Hucka D.:

No. How’s her father?

bb:

Fine. How’s your father?

Hucka D.:

Deceased. Killed by an Aunt and Uncle. Zoe and Joe. From Humansville, of course. Remember they robbed the 7th National Bank of Greenhead and sealed up the Mammoth Hole behind them in their escape?

bb:

Kind of. This is your father who was the Chilbo banker. What was his name?

Hucka D.:

Hundred.

bb:

Was that his age[ at death]?

Hucka D.:

Yes. (pause)

bb:

Where is your mother, Hucka D.?

Hucka D.:

I am my own mother. I’m special. (smiles)

bb:

Um, not sure what to say about that.

Hucka D.:

Sylver Forest Council might be about ready to convene. We have to move out of Nowheresville.

bb:

Into town?

Hucka D.:

Yes. The Table House[ will do]. We met at the Church of the 7th Diagonal before.

bb:

It’s just *The* Diagonal.

Hucka D.:

It’s special for sure. [(like me)]

bb:

Can we look at a picture and get your comments[ before the meeting]?

Hucka D.:

Sure. I knew this was going to happen.

Snapshot1331_009

bb:

Baker Bloch can’t seem to get up from this dock.

Hucka D.:

Is that the picture? Do you want me to [attempt an] interpretation?

bb:

No…

Hucka D.:

Just get him up, then. Move him.

bb:

He doesn’t seem to want to move.

Hucka D.:

Then I’ll interpret. He saying that 3rd stream is important, and that the ballerina at the confluence of 1 and 2 [1st and 2nd streams] is the same as Yeo, the owner of the 3rd. Take that ballerina and look. It is representation of your new freedom. 3rd stream is representation of your new friend. Yet you are stuck — through your avatar. Is this a good thing?

bb:

Like the ballerina is stuck in her hoops.

Hucka D.:

You are starting a 3rd and last segment of your job. Put to pasture? Not exactly. You are waiting for the rm.

bb:

Real McCoy?

Hucka D.:

Maybe. Good.

bb:

I’m waiting for the Real McCoy.

“The 3 streams must be the 3 blue hoops, Hucka D.”

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

The hoops are the same circumference as the dress defining the circumference of the ballerina.

Hucka D.:

The ballerina is the 3rd stream. She is 1st, 2nd, and 3rd all in one.

bb:

There is a secret entrance to the Confluence Place. I’ll show you.

“There’s also 3 hoops of blue fish surrounding the ballerina.

Snapshot1331_023

Hucka D.:

Have we satisfied you[ with our interpretation]?

bb:

Maybe.

Hucka D.:

Strange that…

bb:

Strange that her eyes are the same color as the hoops. And the fish. And the pool containing all.

Hucka D.:

It is Pool 237. Like the Twins are in. It is a good 237. A decent 237. A 237 that heals instead of hurts. It is a healing pool. 237.

Sharieland Once More 02

(continued from Sharieland Once More 01)

Rock crossing at the north end of Philo. It’s a good guess that this is human made, but I’m not sure the reason why except for fun and games — know all about those reasons, for certain!

IMG_0147smaller

Another cluster of rocks on Heart Stream (sole feeder stream of Heart Lake). Or is that Earth Stream? Anyhoot, this is at conjunction of two streams actually, Heart and its own main tributary running down the hill from the northwest. The below pictured rocky patch is not nearly as large and interesting as Philo, which lies about 30 yards downstream.

IMG_0148smaller

A delapidated Sharieland cow enclosure, no longer used.

IMG_0153smaller

There are all kinds of interesting looking rocks littering the fields and woods of Sharieland. I’ll have to make a detailed map soon.

IMG_0154smaller

This particular rock is found right on the Heart Line, and has been depicted in the F and H E! Blog several times previous to this. It seems to convey a message, perhaps as part of a map itself. It lies between +1 and +2 valleys on this line/path. More on -2, -1, Null, +1, +2, +3, +4 valleys running from Head Line down to Heart Line very soon.

IMG_0159smaller

The remainder of the pictures from this blog post come from Vale +2, and specifically an area I seem to want to call Sunklands or Sunk Lands, originally in these earlier posts on the subject here and here.

Unnamed rock looking like a small grave marker.

Not as gaping as the Danny’s mouth in the above still from The Shining movie, but I thought I would include since it seemed weird that the picture came up at the top of an image search for “gaping mouth” just accomplished. I’ve mentioned The Shining in several more recent blog posts, and actually gave a link for the home page for the article that photo is from here. I’ve also read all of these articles by Ager recently.

Munster/Monster

munsters24

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

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monstrous_moonshine#Why_.22monstrous_moonshine.22.3F

The term “monstrous moonshine” was coined by Conway, who, when told by John McKay in the late 1970s that the coefficient of {q} (namely 196884) was precisely the dimension of the Griess algebra (and thus exactly one more than the degree of the smallest faithful complex representation of the Monster group), replied that this was “moonshine” (in the sense of being a crazy or foolish idea).[1] Thus, the term not only refers to the Monster group M; it also refers to the perceived craziness of the intricate relationship between M and the theory of modular functions.

However, “moonshine” is also a slang word for illegally distilled whiskey, and in fact the name may be explained in this light as well.[citation needed] The Monster group was investigated in the 1970s by mathematicians Jean-Pierre Serre, Andrew Ogg and John G. Thompson; they studied the quotient of the hyperbolic plane by subgroups of SL2(R), particularly, the normalizer Γ0(p)+ of Γ0(p) in SL(2,R). They found that the Riemann surface resulting from taking the quotient of the hyperbolic plane by Γ0(p)+ has genus zero if and only if p is 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 41, 47, 59 or 71. When Ogg heard about the Monster group later on, and noticed that these were precisely the prime factors of the size of M, he published a paper offering a bottle of Jack Daniel’s whiskey to anyone who could explain this fact.[2]

Updates…

Busy time of the year for me, relatively speaking. I’ve just completed not 1 but 2 of what I call carrcasses on this here blog, and have debuted both to tiny audiences in the last week. One more is on the way even, a smaller affair of about 1/2 an hour or so. Carrcasses are a very large subject in and of themselves, a lot of which I can’t speak about in this forum. But they’ve certainly kept me occupied since early September, along with fall hiking season and attached F&HE! blog post generation. I need to also edit photos tonight.

Carrcass energy hasn’t been at this level since 2007, I feel. Then along with all this I’ve kept my Second Life VWX Town around through October at least, and probably beyond now.

But the hiking part might slow down considerably, since I threw out my back a bit yesterday. I don’t think I can chance walking around my usual rougher terrain this weekend, despite it being *perfect* weather (darnit!). But I’m rolling with the punches, and still may set up a toy happening around what’s called Heart Lake in flatter territory. If so, the place I set up — on a small, rocky beachy area — seems to be named Myst or Mysten or Mystel, relatable to Secret Garden’s Mistlethwaite. I had Elton John’s “Blue Eyes” playing in my head while exploring Heart Lake day before yesterday, and when I re-stumbled upon this small beachy area (found a number of years ago but then not revisited until now).

What toys to take? I’m thinking small autos and trucks — just let the characters interact with the land. If it comes to be, this will be quite different from Billfork or Lion’s Roar or Falmouth, my most recent such happenings (although perhaps closest in spirit to the latter?). We better bring in Hucka D.

bb:

What is the name of the town on the beach, Hucka D.?

Hucka D.:

Myst. Somtimes[ spelled]: Mist. (Hucka D. spells out both) Your GNIRPS should be back in action soon.

bb: (after checking)

But not tonight. Maybe tomorrow.

Hucka D.:

Take all the toys you need. What do you think occurred there? Is this Sharieland Central?

bb:

It’s important. Heart Lake is important.

Hucka D.:

Sharies descended from Herman’s Mansion [in the Sky — to them] and found their way to Heart Lake and also Head Lake. Some stayed in [Bedrock] close to the mansion, on Head Line. They stayed at the top of *Negative One* Vale. The others moved to the top of *Null* Vale, which naturally acted as a siphon to lower elevations.

bb:

Hmm — meaning that they passed down the Null Vale toward Heart and Head Lakes.

Hucka D.:

Correct. Setting up settlements all along the way, but not as concentrated as [Bedrock].

bb:

Hucka D., we’ve already attached the name [Bedrock] to a Yellow Down location in Green Oz at Wealthy Mtn.

Hucka D.:

Related. But not as old. Head Line’s [Bedrock] is older. The Way came, and the old power gave way — *way* — to the new power. Lisa The Vegetarian took control from the owner still in Herman’s Mansion at the time. An agreement was forged. Handshakes… There was a meeting, several in fact. Herman’s wife Lilly knew of St. Lisa. Lilly…

bb:

Lilly was greatly disturbed by the coming of The Way, which effectively split Herman Park in two.

Hucka D.:

Herman Park was *made* at that point, per Lisa’s plan overseen by Marty.

bb:

And we’ve established that Marty is a variant of McCartney — Paul.

Hucka D.:

The same.

bb:

And their connection comes through a Simpsons episode.

Hucka D.:

Correct[ once more].

bb:

Go ahead…

Hucka D.:

You don’t not yet fully understand that these events actually happened and are as real as you and me talking *here*.

bb:

In Nowhereville (smiles).

—–

bb:

[The origin of] Frank Park is still a mystery to me, Hucka.

Hucka D.:

Frank Park is more a mirror of Herman, as Frankenstein parodies Herman Munster.

bb:

I think that’s actually the opposite[ thing going on here].

Hucka D.:

No (pause).

bb:

What of Herman himself? He had passed away long before the coming of The Way.

Hucka D.:

Doesn’t [really] matter. He was in on the agreement. He had to be. The original purpose of the mansion and the grounds was as a functional estate. This yielded to recreational purposes, and finally a deep, mythological story of considerable…

bb:

Depth?

Hucka D.:

You. And Lisa. And Marty. And Herman and Lilly. And… someone else.

bb:

2E2E.

Hucka D.:

Wallace, yes.

bb:

So getting back to the formation of Herman Park, Lisa set up Head, Heart, Hand, Health. With Health spinning the opposite way because it was on the opposite side of The Way from all the others.

Hucka D.:

All this was set up *at once*, as it were. As it is. As it will be and is and was. WIS.

bb:

I’m having trouble quite grasping that.

Hucka D.:

Because you are limited to time-space. Even in death you do not escape this cloistering gravity.

bb:

So I guess Herman and Lilly had trouble with[ the concept] as well.

Hucka D.:

They understood [the concept of] Munster MASHup. (Hucka D. clarifies that spelling, once more)

—–

bb:

Of course. *Flat top*!

I used to think the world was flat
Rarely threw my hat into the crowd
I felt I had used up my quota of yearning
Used to look in on the children at night
In the glow of their Donald Duck light
And frighten myself with the thought of my little ones burning
But, oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning

Satellite buzzing through the endless night
Exclusive to moonshots and world title fights
Jesus Christ, imagine what it must be earning
Who is the strongest
Who is the best
Who holds the aces
The East
Or the West
This is the crap our children are learning

Repetition

the_shining0696-640x360

Been reading this most excellent and fascinating site about Kubrick’s The Shining. Recommended for anyone interested in the director.

http://www.collativelearning.com/the%20shining.html

Also watched most of the “Room 237” documentary yesterday and came away much less impressed. I don’t think it will be used in a, ahem, carrcass.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_237

Next up might be this:

http://www.jeffreyscottbernstein.com/kubrick/theshining.html

Or this…

http://jonnys53.blogspot.com/2007/06/what-you-may-or-may-not-have-seen.html

As for The Shining movie itself: definitely in a carrcass. 🙂
