#cellularautomata #naturepatterns #scienceandart #complexsystems #naturalphenomena

Abstract

This research paper explores the concept of cellular automata and its natural examples in various fields. Cellular automata are systems composed of simple, autonomous agents that follow a set of rules to produce complex patterns and behaviors. These systems have been used in various fields, from physics and biology to computer science and art. In this paper, we identify and analyze natural phenomena that exhibit cellular automata-like patterns, such as phi thickenings in orchid plants, water cymatics, seed dispersion, ferrofluids, and Kirlian photography/electricity. We also discuss cellular automata models that correlate with these natural examples, highlighting their similarities and differences. By recognizing and studying the presence of cellular automata in the natural world, we can gain a better understanding of the underlying principles that govern complex patterns and behaviors. Ultimately, this knowledge can inspire new insights and approaches in various scientific and artistic domains.

Abstract

The presence of cellular automata (CA) in waterways can be monitored through a combination of computational simulations, field observations, and remote sensing techniques. Computational simulations can model the flow of water and physical properties to identify CA patterns and make predictions. Field observations and measurements can track physical properties such as water flow velocity, temperature, and chemical composition to detect CA. Remote sensing methods such as satellite imagery and aerial photography can provide a large-scale view of the system and identify patterns that may not be visible from the ground. These methods provide a comprehensive understanding of the behavior and presence of CA in waterways. Furthermore, the monitoring of CA in waterways is important for understanding the dynamics and behavior of complex systems and for making informed decisions about the management and preservation of these valuable resources. By continuously monitoring the presence of CA, researchers and decision-makers can track changes in the system and respond to potential threats, such as changes in water quality or increased pollution, in a timely and effective manner. Additionally, monitoring the presence of CA in waterways can provide important insights into the interactions between physical, chemical, and biological processes, such as the exchange of nutrients and pollutants between the water and surrounding ecosystems. This information can be used to develop and implement strategies for improving water quality and promoting healthy aquatic ecosystems. Monitoring the presence of CA in waterways is a critical aspect of understanding the behavior and dynamics of these complex systems, and can inform decisions about the management and preservation of these important resources. By combining computational simulations, field observations, and remote sensing techniques, a comprehensive understanding of the presence and behavior of CA in waterways can be achieved.

Paper: The Shining Ones and Angels

Chapters of Coming Forth By Day: “Behold, oh ye shining ones, ye men and gods…”

One of the missing “keys” in this fabricated divided illusion, is the shining ones. Throughout ancient history, there has been a global phenomenon of beings called the shining ones. They have literally been described as people of light and that they were seen as gods. The most prominent culture who speaks of the shining ones, is of course Egypt. But some scholars believe they are the Sumerian Annunaki. In the Sumerian legends, Humanity was created by the Sky Gods who descended from heaven. I believe the angel archetype is actually a description of the shining ones. While the video below is not of actual human form, it still portrays the angel archetype. As seen in the video below, we could never accept the appearance of an angel because we would associate them with “UFO”s. That’s right. Some of the UFO footage is indeed “legit” but they are not like the image we have of aliens: a flying saucer with little green men inside.

In order to study Ufology a good understanding of light needs to be achieved. How it affects us, how it affects material, the acceptance that outside this physical world time and space do not exist. According to Hermetic thought, time and space is not in motion, but is perceived within thee. That means our brains are a big tool in perceiving the physical world. All our senses create the physical world. Without them, time and space do not exist.

Angels are described as white winged, beings, generally dressed in white and carry a message.

Well this description could be an archetypal description. These paintings that we know now, also were painted by the Humanists of the Renaissance who have a connection to the Order of the Rosae Croix, Rosicrucianism, a mystery (oral) school that was started by egyptian Pharaoh Tuthmosis. Therefore one of the many ways that mystics encrypted information was through paintings and symbols. As learned in art school, artists’ paint what the see. The act of seeing could mean different things to different people. The most obvious and narrow meaning to see is seeing something with your eyes. To the Humanists as well with any philosopher one of the many lines of wisdom that is passed around is, “Those who know, see.” This simply means, those who are ‘in the know’ see. See through the illusion.

Here are some quotes regarding the Shining Ones:

The Sumerian EL means simply bright or shining
the Old Irish Aillil means shining
Old Cornish EL means shining
Elf means shining – hence Elves as tall/mysterious angelic beings
Inca Illa is bright or to shine
Babylonian Ellu is to shine

Eliphas Levi (19th century magician and mystic) speaks of these egregors on numerous occasions and even links them to the giants or Watchers spoken of in the Book of Enoch saying that they:

“take shape and have appeared in the guise of giants: these are the egregors of the Book of Enoch…. Termed the celestial watchers or egregors, by the ancients.”

“The egregore is a group spirit that serves to remind the initiate of his or her goals. It informs and guides the individual and it protects the living chain of brotherhood. The living chain of brotherhood is entered into when a Setian performs a rite of their own creation intended to protect and enhance the Temple of Set. The egregore protects the brotherhood by letting them know their enemies are there. A symbolic representation of the egregore is used to maintain a link to the Prince of Darkness.”
Sir Ormsond IV°,

Paper: Gog and Magog

The Legend of the Gog and Magog have been on my mind a bit lately, I don’t know why so I decided to do a bit of research and see what peoples’ thoughts are and possibly the connection to today’s world, and this is what I have found. Did George W Bush invade Iraq because of Gog and Magog?

“I come from the great abyss!” Rev, a Magog, from the Andromeda TV series.

The Legend of Gog and Magog according to the Qur’ran states:

But there is a ban on a town which We have destroyed: that they (the people of the town) shall not return. Until the Gog and Magog are let through (their barrier), and they spread out from every direction.(Qur’an 21:96–97)

According to Islamic tradition (in Saḥīḥ al-Bukhāri), Gog and Magog are “Sons of Adam”, i.e. human beings, who would be released when a people return to a town which was destroyed and from which they were banned.

As told in one Sumerian legend of Enoch, Hiburu is Sumerian for Hebrew, therefore the Jewish tradition is told by the Sumerian perspective.

“Woe to thee, land of Gog and Magog, situated in the midst of Aethiopian rivers” — Sib. Or. III, 393-4

These hideous creatures appear to be based off the ‘biblical’ character Gog of the Magog homeland…

If the real Gog and Magog are anything like the Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings Orc I am not surprised then, that they called it the War on Terror!

Something else to consider the Al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda (pronounced /ælˈkaɪdə/ al-KY-də or /ælˈkeɪdə/ al-KAY-də; Arabic: القاعدة‎, al-qāʿidah, “the base”), alternatively spelled al-Qaida and sometimes al-Qa’ida, is a militant Islamist group founded sometime between August 1988 and late 1989. It operates as a network comprising both a multinational, stateless army and a radical Sunni Muslim movement calling for global Jihad. We haven’t found them, yet we hear about them all the time. They are a big part of the War on Terror:

Further studies have identified the overall current region named Baluchistan as the old Magog/Gitya, and it is actually divided today between three countries: Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan. In western Pakistan, there’s also a province names Baluchistan, next to the Iranian Baluchistan. They have also concluded that Gog, is not from Magog, but that Gog and Magog are 2 different nations, and that there will be a war between the 2 of them.

***It looks like Gog is from Turkey and Magog is from Iran/Pakistan/Afganistan. There may be a battle still between Sunni and Shiite Muslims or regions over whose leader will be their final Mahdi. The winner takes the territory over. There is a passage in Daniel 7 where it describes the “little horn” taking over 3 regions. Maybe if there is a battle between Gog and Magog, it is related to the battle waged by the little horn. If so, then the players (Gog and Magog) will be better identified.

Gog is the president of one of the nations, whom Rabbenu Saadia Gaon compared to the Moslem Caliph in his days, because Gog will also rule many peoples. Gogana used to be the name of a port city on the Persian Gulf, which is today called Bandar-e Kangan, in Iran. Therefore Gog, in this view, represents Iran, and Magog represents the Baluchistan regions of Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan. Magog, in this viewpoint, covers the territory that al Qaeda occupies.

In the Book of Ezekiel (Ezekiel 38:2–3) Gog appears as a foreign prince and Magog as his land (the phrase “son of man” refers to Ezekiel):

Son of man, direct your face towards Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince, leader of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy concerning him. Say: Thus said the Lord: Behold, I am against you, Gog, the prince, leader[7] of Meshech and Tubal.[8]

From the Andromeda Wiki:

The Magog is a name given to a race of bipedal, furred sentient beings by members of the Systems Commonwealth. Thus, it is an exonym, the race calls themselves “Harvengers of the Abyss.”

While the Magog did not themselves destroy the Commonwealth, they certainly gorged themselves in feasting on its remains. Since their catastrophic attacks in the waning days of the Nietzschean uprising, the Magog have roamed through the Known Worlds nearly unchecked, launching devastating raids against populated worlds only to retreat again, leaving devastation in their wake. Thus far, no political or military entity has been strong enough to check their depredations, though the worlds of the Than Hegemony and more powerful Nietzschean Prides stay relatively safe. But despite causing widespread death and destruction, the Magog have not expanded their former range in a concerted fashion, aside from turning a handful of former Commonwealth territories such as Double Happiness, Dyhedra, and Zinn’s World into breeding worlds. For their own mysterious reasons, the Magog largely prefer to live on their own planets in the former Quarantine Zone. The other significant change since the Commonwealth’s fall has been the conversion of some Magog, namely Reverend Behemeial Fartraveler(aka Rev Bem) to the new religion of Wayism (see People of the Way). Unfortunately, Wayism’s tenets of peace and cooperation have only appealed to a tiny minority of Magog, while vast majority remain as violent and bloodthirsty as ever. Over a billion Magog on the breeding world of Dyhedra were recently killed when their solar system was nova bombed by their former victims, a group of child warriors living on a nearby abandoned High Guard space station. The station has since become a protectorate of the restored Systems Commonwealth, with the governments of Xinti and Castalia helping rehabilitate the station and its inhabitants. http://andromeda.wikia.com/wiki/Magog

Paper: Viewing Life as a Design

Studying Design has helped me evolve into seeing that life itself is a Design. A lot of my R&R is studying the esoteric teachings and mystic teachings originating from ancient Mesopotamia and Mesoamerica. I have learned that how they see the world is completely different from how contemporary society views the world, but the way the ancients saw the world never changed, reality never changed, WE CHANGED and thus our global perception of reality changed.

People often take into their own personal world view and truth what attracts them. This is not a bad way of living but it isn’t the healthiest way of living. The esoteric and mystic teachings say that we should see things as what we feel is right. What our emotional and psychic body feels right not the things that attract us.

The ancients saw the world as archetypes and used symbols as the main writing system. There were archetypes (images, think cave paintings), then symbols, then letter forms, then alphabets, then the letter press, then grammar, etc. Therefore the way we communicate to people today, the contemporary writing system is but a product of man, therefore it is not natural. The natural language is of archetypes, of symbols, of imagery, of visions, etc. The creative flux.

Therefore the way I am communicating to you now on this blog does not exist naturally, the English Language (or any Latin language) is a man-made systemic, sequential form of communication, a group of words (which man gave meaning to), sentence structure, etc. Its’ fascinating that the ancients called Latin the language of lies.

Since Latin languages dominate the world today it actually DISTRACTS us from the natural language of visual syntax (grammar), the natural language of archetypes. In design we know this, we treat letter forms as if they are symbols and archetypes. The estoeric and mystical teachings say that the Universe was created from order out of chaos. Well language is order, images or archetypes are chaos, and design simply puts the order back into chaos. Another way to look at this is balancing the simplicity and complexity.

Therefore, it is crucial to look at the subliminal suggestions that occur through life. The subliminal suggestions expose a lot of information that otherwise we overlook that comes from the creative flux. According to the website, Natural News, an article states, “A new measure of intelligence: Big-picture thinking trumps narrow-minded expertise” …

The label of “high IQ” is typically assigned to those who are experts in narrowly-defined fields such as disease pathology, pharmacology, particle physics, mathematics or other so-called “hard science” areas. And yet, it’s not uncommon to see a high-level mathematics professor with an IQ of 175 chowing down on a processed hamburger laced with toxic chemical additives, while wearing clothes washed in carcinogenic mainstream laundry detergent.

[…]

Highly-intelligent architects for some reason don’t question the collapse of the WTC 7 building on 9/11 even though the official explanation of the collapse violates the laws of physics (a subject in which architects are well-versed). Chemists don’t consider the chemistry of the toxic shampoos they put on their hair every day. Nor do many scientists think realistically about the toxicity of mercury fillings or the fluorosilicic acid (“fluoride”) dumped into the public water supply. I could go on…

The point of all this is that there exists a huge gap in practical intelligence among the so-called “smartest” people in our society. I’ve spoken with countless doctors and conventional health care providers who are brilliant in their own fields and yet don’t even know the basics of nutrition. So how can it be that a guy is so smart he can be the world’s best brain surgeon, but when he goes home at night, he bathes his own brain and body in a sea of toxic chemicals consumed as additives in his processed food dinner?

In the book, 101 things I learned in Architecture School by Matthew Frederick, according to the principles of architecture visual syntax can be described as informed simplicity, which is an enlightened view of reality,

It is founded upon an ability to discern or create clarifying patterns within complex mixtures. Pattern recognition is a crucial skill for an architect, who must create a highly ordered building [our physical realm] amid many competing and frequently nebulous design considerations.

The Natural News article continues stating that, “Most people can’t assimilate the big picture,”

What’s lacking in these so-called “smart” people is the ability to see the bigger picture by assimilating information from a large number of seemingly unrelated sources. Or, stated in another way, even some of the most high-IQ people around can’t see the big picture because they get lost in the details.

Informed Simplicity is the term for “the ability to see the bigger picture by assimilating information”. Its’ the ability to ‘connect the dots’ or find the things that don’t seem to make sense, but when pieced together makes a bigger picture. Kind of like connecting stars in the sky to create a constellation.

Another example of lacking Informed Simplicity, is the frenzy astronomers created by restoring the ancient Babylonian zodiacal calendar to include the 13th sign, Ophiuchus, or commonly known as Serpentarius.
This whole hype kind of reminds me in Harry Potter when a Death Eater conjures up the Dark Mark, which is a skull and a snake through its’ mouth.

Surprisingly, the archetype of the constellation of Serpentarius is Man grasping the snake, which has been a symbol for DNA, cosmic energy, spiritual wisdom and mystical power. The word ‘America’ is actually a contemporary translation from the ancient Peruvian word ‘Ameruca’ or ‘Amaruca’ meaning “Land of the Serpent”. The Americas were once united under one spiritual tradition.

By the way, this sign was always there but because the earth wobbles every 2,000 years we see it more clearly than before. This 2,000 year wobble actually aligns with the Mayan calendar depicting its’ transition into a Golden Age. The term ‘Golden Age’ is mistranslated to mean ‘Golden Race’ and ‘Golden’ is an ancient term to mean light, or spiritual light, thus confirming the archetype ‘sign’ man grasping the spiritual wisdom and mystical power…

The 13th sign is actually a really good example of paying attention to the details rather instead of focusing on the bigger picture and putting Informed Simplicity into practice. Some people may ask, so what? Why is this important? Why is the world suddenly focusing on astrology?

What is astrology exactly?

The ancient Babylonians observed the behavior of human babies during a certain time of the year, started astrology. They would observe that certain babies acted more like a ram during the spring and noticed the sun was in a certain position as well as the planets and then would label that area of the sky as a ram’s head, therefore the animal symbols used on the signs are only but an archetype describing the area of the sky that mirrored human behavior. This doesn’t mean it was in the constellation of Aries it was just in that area of the sky that they called the ram personality in which the sun and planets would pass through.

The origin of Informed Simplicity may surprise the reader as it has esoteric and mystic origins. The oldest explanation of the relationship between an eternal and mysterious Creator and the mortal and finite Universe (His creation) lies within the Hebrew Rabbinic scriptures of Kabbalah. Kabbalah seeks to define the nature of the universe and the human being, the nature and purpose of existence, and various other ontological questions. The Hebrew alphabet which is extremely important in Kabbalah has origins that are Sumerian. In the Sumerian legends there is a character, Enoch who is given by ‘God’ the language of light. In Sumerian he calls this Hiburu which is Hebrew. Ancient Hebrew is the most ancient form of language as we see it.

As the website, Illuminati Matrix, that spells out Kabbalah states,

Kabbalism is the thought process, and is the initiator, or creator, and subsequent manipulator of energy. This isn’t good or bad, right or wrong, but one must understand, that, in spite of the fact that this is how things work in the 3D scheme of things, this kabbalistic thought process is the deception that keeps us separated, and disconnected from the ultimate expression of being that we are.

In Kabbalah its’ view on language is, that it can only communicate in terms relating to the speed of light. Understanding how thought is a word, is sound, is vibration, is energy, that glows, which is light… makes it very obvious how thoughts can manipulate light. Thoughts are light. Light is the 3 dimensional form. Change the thought and you change the form. If a person becomes very adept at changing their thought process and manipulating the thought process of those around, this is called magic, because the illusory images appear real.

The Illuminati Matrix continues,

There is no such thing as TIME or SPACE. Everything is but an illusion, merely projecting images before our physical eyes, creating the impression of space and the illusion of time passing. Everything is simply CURRENT THOUGHT being expressed by the luciferian egregore to create the 3 dimensional hypnotic trance state. Current Thought fosters Current Electrical Energy, the ION, which fosters Water Currents, or Space, which in turn, fosters Current Time, which fosters Current Money, or Currency.

[…]

The information on the this site reveals an agenda, and a pattern relating to the holographic consciousness. What is described as the thought process, and hypnotic subliminal manipulation, which uses the illusory body of all humanity to take control of the Paradise State, this article rightly refers to it as the place where consciousness is sorted out, divided up, chopped and diced into a myriad of illusions. The article can initiate the notion that things are not at at all what they appear to be, and in the process, this can assist some in breaking out of the trance state. It lends credence to the possibility where consideration of a concept other than rational reasoning becomes a viable option in understanding what reality truly is.

The earliest holographic consciousness ‘experiment’ can be seen with the Camera Obscura or pinhole. When one enters a dark room with a hole through the window on a bright day the light shines through with a picture of what is outside, upside down.

Interestingly the Kabbalah view of this is,

…the Universe was created by the gods of Israel and it was created from nothing

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][or a dark room][/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

. This is known as “Something from Nothing” (Yesh M’Ayin). This is the egregore thought form that forms the hypnosis trance state that makes everything appear in 3 dimensions. This is light energy with sound attached to it. Keep in mind that sound is a thought. Not only is sound a thought, but sounds are vibrations of energy, and energy is just light. There’s nothing there! Sounds are a deception and an illusion! In other words, sounds are lies. Therefore, all thoughts are lies.

Light travels in a straight line and when some of the rays reflected from a bright subject pass through a small hole in thin material they do not scatter but cross and reform as an upside down image on a flat surface held parallel to the hole. This law of optics was known in ancient times. If a mirror is added to this apparatus the light will bounce off and reflect right side up. This is the earliest hologram! Plasma physics state that the physical world is 99.999% plasma, fourth state of matter. Matter is comprised of atoms which contain 99.999% space, or ether. 1.0% of an atom are the electrons that create our physical world. Our physical world is only 1.0% of the ENTIRE picture!

Georga O’Keefe once said, “I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way—things I had no words for!”
