Palindromes [Apr. 20th, 2021|10:45 pm]

[music |Silver Apples: Program]

ATTA, open in 2020

Its bright blood-red body manifests when the Sun is set (Osiris (the sun killed by Set (Earth) - they couldn't find his Dick, which you need for sex, or maybe if you are conservatively-fashioned: reproduction). The horns, or antennae, or blood-shot eyes also appear on the head, above a sign announcing its current purpose. Check it out! You don't see it during the daytime. You need to be about at night like I am.

Most famous - and funniest Palindrome is this:

Eve (arī): "Who are you?"
Adam: "Madam, I'm Adam!"

Where did they come from?

Deified ?(atkāl!)

Or DNA? (Palindrome: A segment of double-stranded DNA in which the nucleotide sequence of one strand reads in reverse order to that of the complementary strand.)

Anyway

Bye!

Nevaru rimties:

"scholars have BROUGHT TO LIGHT various palindromic cryptograms of direct significance for the philological study of languages and their ability to articulate the most embryonic of human ideas. A common palindromic incantation used as a hymn of divination ties the sungod Helios to the ancient sorceress and earth-goddess Hecate."

Gribu piebilst, ka šo paradību pamanīju, kad sedēju Astarte benzinu stacijas autostāvvietā.

"Astarte is connected with fertility, sexuality, and war. Her symbols were the lion, the horse, the sphinx, the dove, and a star within a circle indicating the planet Venus."

Pofig:

"Close inspection shows that the historical evidence argues firmly for the mythical, expressive beginnings of the palindrorne as a language form, for the magic squares which conceal the name of a deity, the re­ current verses from the Torah, and the traditional words of the Hebraic God to Moses appear to be the earliest use put to the palindrome by its first poets, tasks which are both mystically and mythically expressive
of certain cosmological relationships. Only later do the rarefied and purely magical, instrumental uses of the recurrent verse appear in magic squares intended as protective charms and elsewhere as spells, incantations, oracular consultations and divinations of supernatural powers."

I note Gove and Van Tamm have been off to Israel to discuss their experience with vaccine passports.

Jā - no "https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/62420019.pdf"

"...parallels in many ways the service provided by
the untold numbers of monks and recluses of the unending past who have spent much of their lives and sometimes their sanity sifting through the logic of languages in hopes of discovering there a key to a hidden sym­ bolism of meaning and significance. Superficially this behaviour is misleading and pointless, but on a deeper level this human drive to com­ prehend mystery and to seek out the missing pattern of things can be
seen as the essential statement of the totality of human inquiry. Once again, the production of palindromes can be understood as an attempt to gaze through the crystal surface of language to glmpse the relationship of ITlan to a cosmological order."

Hah f..inhg hah. I copied and pasted this, and it changed "relationship of MAN to a cosmological order" to "the relationship of ITlan to a cosmological order."

Man has been replaced as a mere node of Information Technology (Local Area Newtwork?).

Wasn't it just great when being interested in conspiracy theories was just an entertaining pastime?

That's one way of looking at it. Who was it who said streetlights were more incredible than the stars?
