.just like having missed Handel's messiah at the Royal Albert Hall, instead returning sullen and ******* in a brothel... now this... Beethoven's Ode to Joy, me writing this and da-ist-sein taking place all around me; but more importantly: beyond me - preying on the hope, of a divine intervention.
on a site... such architectural Behemoths
of beauty,
were born from the Roman numerals...
to see 31, via XXXI...
a bit like seeing the ode to joy...
what i would call
what my English teacher joked around
with when describing the Blitzkrieg
happening while
Wagner's ride of the Valkyries
was playing in the background...
well... time's up...
plus the moonlight sonata
was overly borrowed...
notably in geek love
by katherine dunn...
imagine calculus, using roman
numerals, are all modern mathematics
for that reason...
perhaps, just perhaps...
teaching dyslexics arithmetic in roman
numerals, they'd be able to spell better...
after all... what do we have?
/ i was just thinking that...
since we know what the ancient Roman
numerals were, what were the ancient
Greek numerals, and why do we
hear about them so little? /
we have... oh look! what a "coincidence"...
anti-Roman Greek propaganda
(how else would the Byzantines
have not arose from the ashes
of the fall of the Roman Empire,
if not via the bible's propaganda...
for me? the book of Revelations
was written first)...
Revelation 13:1...
a seven-headed beast...
let's see...
I, V, X, L, C, D, M... by Jove!
that's 'even!
i must be in 'eaven...
(keep in mind that ode to joy
by Beethoven is playing in the background
as i mash this out)
- because you rarely hear about
the ancient Greek numerals...
i'm guessing because...
whatever letter was whatever numeral...
became... a scientific constant...
i.e. a hyper-numeral...
what with the Rho... ahem...
Trojans suiting the duo graphemes to look
more sophisticated in their sophistry
(Cicero and Seneka...
both loud-mouths, who apparently didn't
bother to think), as in their writing...
just marvel at this:
αʹ 1 ιʹ 10 ρʹ 100
βʹ 2 κʹ 20 σʹ 200
γʹ 3 λʹ 30 τʹ 300
δʹ 4 μʹ 40 υʹ 400
εʹ 5 νʹ 50 φʹ 500
ϝ 6 ξʹ 60 χʹ 600
ζʹ 7 οʹ 70 ψʹ 700
ηʹ 8 πʹ 80 ωʹ 800
θʹ 9 ϟʹ 90 ϡʹ 900
(look! look! they had knowledge
of runes! ϟ - soowiloo / sun
and a chiral variant of ᚠ - fehoo / wealth
and ᚨ - ansuz / one of the Æsir)
the precursor of chemistry,
the apostrophe attached to
letters to represent numbers
absolutely genius...
the ancient Greeks utilißed
their entire alphabet...
yet the squalid Romans made use of 7...
**** me...
that really is worth noting...
so the idea of writing chemical
equations like H₂O came from the use
of the apostrophe in the Greek numerical
use of letters...
and to think... the ancients entertained
a dual nature of letters...
they could encode speech,
but also think abstractly about,
weights, measures, architecture,
triangles...
to me they were far
more sophisticated than we will ever
hope to be...
actually...
doesn't Braille borrow from this model?
the Greek numerals?
the apostrophe is the number indicator...
ergo
αʹ = 1
but in Braille...
the number indicator is
⠼ ergo ⠼⠁= 1
oh look!
no ****!
now i know why i wrote the title first,
i knew i was going to digress...
Heidegger's aphorism XXXI, VIII,
well... i guess for you to read it...
you have to cough up around thirty quid
as i did...
i won't rewrite the text...
forget it...
it basically summarizes
the ontology of the English...
covertly, because this isn't an observation
done as directly as Voltaire's...
this is the English mentality....
briefly... it talks about the the veneration
of "facts"... "facts" that however much true...
disintegrate into a spaghetti mesh of
utter *******, or rather a caution:
to not seek origins in "ideas" or furthermore,
building a solid foundation
on theories...
rather? experiences... empiricism...
i already knew that the English
were suckers for science as their new
guiding voice of having replaced
religion... that was ****** obvious
through their egalitarian idealism...
but yeah...
ancient Greek numerals,
the evolution of the numerals
into scientific constants...
and the concept-borrowing from them,
using the idea of the apostrophe,
to write in numbers into the Braille codex.
ps. to ode an die freude:
which brings me to the conclusion...
how not similar is the ancient Roman
numerals from how music is written?
from the most simple schematics,
arise the most complex structures...
(⠼) ⠊ ⠃⠃ ⠃⠙ ⠁⠃ ⠉ ⠙ ⠁⠉
something so simple, can produce
at the same time something eternally complex,
and original...
music... to think...
we need 26 letters to encode talking,
and with these 26 letter encoding,
we can muster up such vitriol as
to find it better to simply shut up...
A, A# / Bb,
B, C,
C# / Db,
D, D# / Eb,
E, F,
F# / Gb,
G,
G# / Ab....
how many letters is that?
**** me... 7!
7 letters...
and at the end of it...
you have either Handel's messiah,
or Beethoven ode to joy...
who would have thought.
- and all of this... while drinking
two bottles of beer... ha!
