Re:TheAshLad - Sandbooks

the ancient mazes like the. crete labyrinth by daedalus some initiation
rite 'heroic' myth how. does it relate to codework has it some
mythological dimensions. as i think about it the labyrinth is also a
modulation between. the two notions of boundless and deadend and
conceals the relationship. between the terms apeiron and aporia..
Diodorus Siclus notices this. as he describes the labyr. apeiron is
boundless but it is also aporia. without escape.. perhaps the aporia are
like looped subroutines. along the boundless but inescapable path.. its
seems to be somehow. about modulationinterpretation between open
and closed systems... a couple of cites. The role of the cave in
paleolithic religions appears to have been. decidedly important. Then
too the cave and the labyrinth continue to have a. function of the first
importance in the initiation rites of other archaic. cultures (as for
example in Malekula) both indeed are concrete symbols. of passages
into another world of a descent to the underworld p.. mircea. eliade
shamanism.. on 'difficult passages' p. the symbolism of the strait gate
and the dangerous bridge is bound up. with the symbolism of what we
hav called the paradoxical passage because. it sometimes proves to be
an impossibility or a situation from which there. cerain myths
sometimes find themselves in apparently desperate situations.. They
must go where night and day meets or find a gate in a wall or go up. the
sky through a passage that opens but for an instant pass between two.
constantly moving millstones two rocks that clash together through the.
jaws of a monster and the like like supermario etc. As Coomaraswamy.
rightly saw. all these mythical images express the need to transcend.
opposites to abolish the popularity typical of the human condition in.
order to attain the ultimate reality...and so on In the myth the.
paradoxical passage emphatically testififes that he who succedes in.
accomplishing it has transcended the human condition he is a shaman a.
hero or a spirit and indeed the paradoxical passage can be.
accomplished only by one who is spirit.. daidalonics for the posthuman
cyborgs of the world the other ay ). an interesting drum.. the drums has
the world view printed on it which is. their maze adventure 'd' so you'd
have both the processing unit (drum. stick) and the image.. and the
other stuff. chant dance speaking in. tongue curious codework
heuristics eurythmics trying to get out of the. algorithmic... Re NULL.
Here's the response to jukka's NULL via code posted by MWP.. Had
