Perception's toolbox

Post by The Beast »

The Califa ( Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area Survey) project aims to look at the Universe in a different way. It aligns about 200 galaxies of the Universe under a controlled spectrophotometer view. (details in the web page). A well known honeycomb is the project of the bee vision.

We cannot (sic) consider the visual look as an example of the heroic hexameter unless there is sound. The omphalic shape of the beehive singing a galactic rhythm. I wanted to do a review of the Pythagorean School of magic. From Joelotron web page

A different look of the Koch snowflake. Joel webpage (joelotron) has many great 3d animations. We now have an extended perceptional toolbox.

Well, where is the question? and what is the philosophical discussion people are supposed to do?

OK: The question arises from the perception. This is the same as consciousness. Age changes the nature of matter so it must be true that it is the defining factor in creating consciousness. What prompt you from asking what the question is? The neurogenic?... The tubular like structures following chemical tags which Freud said arises from the furnace. There is only one purpose for the furnace… the consumption of energy that points to reproduction. Did you get any associated feeling produced by the snowflake structure? Where do get the words to express the love? Since Mr. Poe’s birthday is soon I copy his poem:

"SELDOM we find," says Solomon Don Dunce, Half an idea in the profoundest sonnet. Through all the flimsy things we see at once As easily as through a Naples bonnet— Trash of all trash!—how can a lady don it? Yet heavier far than your Petrarchan stuff— Owl-downy nonsense that the faintest puff Twirls into trunk-paper the while you con it." And, veritably, Sol is right enough. The general tuckermanities are arrant Bubbles—ephemeral and so transparent— But this is, now,—you may depend upon it— Stable, opaque, immortal—all by dint Of the dear names that lie concealed within 't.

LIfe is an enigma. Don't you? Enigma?
