How many have wandered through life looking without prior written permission of the publisher. for a sympathetic ear have died bankrupted, taking their untold treasures to their graves? First Edition Written history is littered with many such lives, and in unwritten history, lost forever to time. Once a person has intuitively grasped a part of nature's expansive untold story with unwavering certainty, as if a secret whispered into one's ears, nothing else matters. One is seized with an overpowering force propelling one to follow the arc that all great thinkers, inventors, scientists have followed. This drive to tell nature's untold story takes on a life of its own and becomes one's raisin d'etre. Those men and women I admire the most, who have been privileged to partake in nature's secret revelations, have had their lives fatefully and permanently altered. They only knew relief when that story can be told. No man is an island. We are, each and every one of us beings, and from the moment of birth, our very survival is dependent on our social bonds with others. This odyssey is a life milestone and it could not have come about without the support of an entire network of people. While I make special mention of these few who put in exception effort and creativity in this short acknowledgement, those many others who helped greatly on this journey know who you are, and you are highly valued. To my brother Jonathon Himann, words cannot express the depth of my gratitude for his craftsmanship, patience and persistence in not only communicating a story, but his efforts in communicating with me. Writing a book to bring a bold new idea out of the darkness and into the light requires tremendous fortitude on the part of all those involved. If this book achieves its goal to speak to the world, then it can only be because I provided the breath and Jonathon provided the speech organ that articulated it into coherent words. Although the first draft of this book was writing solely by me, most of the final book was crafted in Jon’s voice. In the investigative part of the journey, I bestow deep gratitude to my close collaborator, Dr. Brett Teeple, whose utterly unique gift and intimate mathematical dialogue with nature can tease out the subtlest patterns hidden from the human mind. Brett provided the mathematical firepower to back up the intuitive knowledge. For the understanding and investigative research into the deep philosophy, cultural context and social impact, I am grateful for the support of James (Gien) Wong. Without his combined abilities of understanding and articulations I fear that I may have been one of the unfortunate ones to take my jewels-in-the-rough to the grave, awaiting the story to unfold in some future time. Lastly,I wish to thank Brad Fincaryk, who has been an essential but silent supporter of this project. He is like the ever-present parent supporting their children playing at a soccer match. Like them, Brad was consistently there in the background to provide firm support and practical guidance to keep the project on track. Without his significant patience, belief and trust in the face of frequent adversity, this book would not have seen the light of day. Thank you, Brad, for your support in me and in bringing to fruition a lifelong dream. Prologue: Voices from The Shadows I had a little notebook that I used to write in when I was a kid. It was stained with mud and god knows what else. I’d write about the world outside, like those berries over there. I’d end with questions like, why are these berries circular? Or what are these branches doing in that pattern? Why did the bees dance like that? Why are there spirals inside watermelon? Why do spider webs look like that? I didn’t really know it then, but that tendency was going to get me into trouble, later. Poking your nose everywhere is going to get you into trouble. In fact, it seems that you are looking for something. Some do not like that you are looking, because they are hiding something. Our society pretends we live in a hard world, that will never change. A rock is just a rock, a stone is just a stone. Oxygen is only oxygen. We are physical creatures first and foremost, and everything else is distraction. This world view is wrong. I know this because, I have seen this world view used as a weapon to control us, in school, at work, and in relationships. To stop questions, to prevent discussion, to create wars. In fact, it is merely, but a weapon used to control you. You do not live in a world that is the way your school describes it. There is something infinitely stranger at the heart of everything. And you are not supposed to know what this secret is. 4 1 Just as I was about to open the first page, brittle with age, my mom yelled, “Son, are you ready?” “Yes, Ma!” I put down the notebook, as my mom had never approved of grandpa’s hobbies. My fingers lingered on the rough, really loved spine. My feet The Beginning disturbed the dust for the last time in that house on the way down the stairs. That bungalow was sold soon after, and soon after that, knocked down. I’d never see it again, but that was alright as his handwriting was burned GRANDPA’S HOUSE into my brain. His search for The Grande Algorithm had become mine. Together with my memories of my grandpa, a chamber opened in my mind. Something that I need a pen and paper to open the door to. My first formative event happened in my grandpa’s house. I distinctly remember that everything on the old dresser in grandpa’s room, beside It took me back to a place where the stories were thrilling once again. the stripped bed, was covered with a patina of dust. I wondered at the He’d tell me about his job, about the lectures he gave to his students.

This is a fantastic truth, and is called newton’s laws of biology, which Kleiber later built on.” I took a few steps towards the boxes in the corner of the room and sighed, shaking my head, when my eyes chanced upon the bookshelf.

  • PATRICIA GETS an ASSIGNMENT by Vik
    1/1 PATRICIA GETS AN ASSIGNMENT By Vik Chapter 1 – A New Assignment Patty heard the phone ring and cursed. She had just laid out a print to dry on the fiberglass screen and her hands were still wet. She switched on the white light, pulled a paper towel from the roll holder on the wall, wiped her hands, opened the door and strode to the phone in the living room. “Yes?” she asked in a disgruntled tone. “Miss Brewster, this is Andrew Stelling at Adventure Travel. You don’t know me but we’ve had excellent references of you as a photographer. My agency has some original plans for some very special ecological tours. We’ll be having a special ad campaign and I thought that if we could come to a mutually agreeable arrangement perhaps you’d like to take the pho- tographs for us.” Patty’s mind started racing. She remarked on the emphasis he had placed on “very.” As a free-lancer she needed any job she could get; on the other hand that bit about “…a mutu- ally agreeable arrangement…” sounded like Mr. Stelling’s travel agency was not willing to pay too much. She decided to play hard to get. “Thank you very much, Mr. Stelling, but right now I was working in the darkroom. I only have five prints finished and I have to deliver those plus another twenty tomorrow morning at 8 AM. I can’t take the time now to discuss your project but if you’d be good enough to give me your phone number I’d be glad to call you back tomorrow afternoon.” “That’ll be fine, Miss Brewster, my number is 555-4936.

  • Album Reviews
    Album Reviews I’ve written over 150 album reviews as a volunteer for CHIRPRadio.org. Here are some examples, in alphabetical order: Caetano Veloso Caetano Veloso (A Little More Blue) Polygram / 1971 Brazilian Caetano Veloso’s third self-titled album was recorded in England while in exile after being branded ‘subversive’ by the Brazilian government. Under colorful plumes of psychedelic folk, these songs are cryptic stories of an outsider and traveller, recalling both the wonder of new lands and the oppressiveness of the old. The whole album is recommended, but gems include the autobiographical “A Little More Blue” with it’s Brazilian jazz acoustic guitar, the airy flute and warm chorus of “London, London” and the somber Baroque folk of “In the Hot Sun of a Christmas Day” tells the story of tragedy told with jazzy baroque undertones of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.” The Clash London Calling Epic / 1979 London Calling, considered one of the greatest rock & roll albums ever recorded, is far from a straightforward: punk, reggae, ska, R&B and rockabilly all have tickets to this show of force that’s both pop and revolutionary. The title track opens with a blistering rallying cry of ska guitar and apocalypse. The post-disco “Clampdown” is a template for the next decade, a perfect mix of gloss and message. “The Guns of Brixton” is reggae-punk in that order, with rocksteady riffs and rock drums creating an intense portrait of defiance. “Train in Vain” is a harmonica puffing, Top 40 gem that stands at the crossroads of punk and rock n’ roll.
