The mouth of the Thames to the Tower of London.

I close my eyes and the distribution of animals, objects, motions, events and places flash - red . grey . grey . red - as blood vessels enlarge my eyelids. I remember that some metaphysical poet or another in 1500 + (something) said that if you rub your eyes and see a white light - it is the glow of your soul.

From the random noise of light reflected through the window and over photo-receptors situated in my ocular mechanism (eyes, with intrinsic and extrinsic eye muscles, as related to the vestibular organs, the head and the whole body), my system fails to explore and find convergence.

Even so the variables and structure of the ambient light engage me, as I slowly remember my ability to de-code, acquired from an early scouting lesson in the Morse codec. (1791 - Samuel Finley Breese Morse a painting and sculpture professor with an early interest in Wired Networks)I quickly wrote down the dots and dashes of code entering my much-adorned visual system and it is these notes I pass on.

We exist in a world where powerful social elites live their life through exceptional fantasies - they mistakenly believe they can best safeguard their privilege by hiding their bonsai trees of knowledge in secret societies, under the tomes of law court papers, magic rituals - art - religions, and the use of well tooled-up armies.

On the other hand mongrels everywhere lust for the experience of transportation->new() while being firmly rooted to the ground. We require transportation->new() from present situations to other states of pleasure and pain. Out of the gutters and into the stratosphere of the imaginary - the vehicle of our transportation is of little consequence.

Bobby Reason was born weak from typhus fever and unable to crawl away from his body of infection.
He spends his time passing voltage through the pathways of least resistance to help him amplify, copy, and replay sounds.
Extending his ears to where his eyes used to be. He forms lenses to put in place of his imagination.
Whilst doing so he manages to split light and holds the lower end of the spectrum (radiation) with special tools he forged out of the industrial revolution to replace his hands.

Language as Data:

Mary, Queen of Scots' head fell ceremoniously from her shoulders into a basket. Peterborough, England: 8:30am on 8th February 1587. From under her skirts ran a small dog. The seed master of the modern English Bull Terrier. Mary's plot against Queen Elizabeth I was discovered by comparing her secret communications with a word frequency table of English, derived from Arabic learning.

Paranoid social elites on the way to or from war have always composed, spawned, coded systems by which they and their minions may sleep better at night.

Language as Data, a mathematical study of the periodicity or norms of word use in a language. In English text generated from some none linguistically impaired peoples, 'the' makes up 6.18 percent of the corpus of English words. We find that 43% of the corpus is pronouns, conjunctions, other function words and a few common verbs. Word frequency is used to inform religious scholars of who authored various parts of various bibles and to inform search engines of content words in web sites, AI development and in detecting the normalcy of language.

The exceptional fantasies that the social elite has been living through have spawned strange and bewildering hierarchies of knowledge and war. We need to squash these at the level of algorithm and representation. The algorithm creates the scaffolding on which the author of a knowledge based system hangs himself.

"the body as a machine animated by soul" == 'culture of dissection'

Sawday places Descartes in Amsterdam (by then becoming one of the major
centres for anatomy in Northern Europe) during the early 1630s at exactly
the same time as Rembrandt, and allows the ghostly spectre of a possible
meeting between the two deliciously haunting his description of the
centrepiece of Rembrandt's painting:

\x85 Cold - December - Amsterdam - the Waag - Rembrandt paints -> Dr Tulp's
forceps are delicately probing the flexor digitorum muscles of Adreaenszoon's
[the name of the cadaver, an executed coat-thief] left hand. By pulling on these
flexor muscles, the (dead) fingers are made to curl, a gesture which Tulp echoes
with his own (living) left hand\x85One intellect (Tulp's) has animated two bodies,
one of which is living and the other is dead. In the dead body, the will ->
voluntas -> has been extinguished, but the mechanism -> 'the laws of mechanics'
which, Descartes was to explain\x85 inhabit all of nature - was still in operation.
In the extinction of Adreaenszoon's will, lay the triumph of the intellect.

1642 - Paris - "toothed wheels" (gears) by Blaise Pascal (1623-1662))

Pascal (Hardware origins) <-> (October and November 1647)

While Oliver Cromwell discusses the new Levellers' constitution for England
(at the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Putney, Surrey) with factions of the
New Model Arm, Descartes pays a call on the sickly young mathematician Blaise
Pascal (Pascal Programming language)->{honour} for (mechanical calculators).

Descartes wants to speak to Pascal about his vacuum experiments, but, seeing
how weak he looked, Descartes volunteered some medical advice:

In this city's dark gates - the tree of knowledge leads to this

Here the dress code of secrecy cloaks the flesh in fear.
This is how the proprietary city gets built,
Hidden in every proprietary street,
In every proprietary house,
In every proprietary possession we meet.

Rise again the true Levellers-republic, rise on wings of knowledge flowing in the domain of the many.

For heaven is more knowledge then one man can muster in a lifetime.

For hell is more knowledge then one man can muster in a lifetime.

Charity would be no more if we did not make somebody poor.

Mutual fear brings peace until our market share increase.

To be done:

Place the death mask of Blake (National portrait Gallery, London) on the skull of Descartes (Mus\xE9e de l'Homme, Paris) & bring me the head of Oliver Cromwell the traitor (buried somewhwere in the precincts of a Cambridge college) that I may relive my bowls within that most disapointing of craniums.
