    So the photos that have me intrigued are photo 5 with the guys face and the message. I do not recognize the face and I can not make out the message. The following photo with all of us after the last event that says “take comfort in your pack while you still can, soon you stumble alone” Four has reached out with “Are You Kidding Me?” in the next photo. Then we have a clue to Addison which says “Gone but never forgotten” the next one has a message I believe to us; “You Hear but you do not listen” and then the call out to @111error, Morgan.

    Interesting guys. Now converse!

      Thanks Neil, this video was tricky. There were some i could not see the first time even going frame by frame off my recording.

      Also, the message from four is interesting (taco bell). I thought she left, but does this show she is still around?

      Lots of III all over the place

      @nking & @endlesspictures The fifth image is the man I sat across from and listened to as he spoke frustrated and angry with what had become of his daughter… Addy’s father, Tom Barrow. He looks rather beaten. He wasn’t this way when we met. The photo must be after that security guard handled him at the donut social.

      @electrichippo – Since you weren’t there and didn’t witness what we did, I don’t think it’s right to assume that the way he looks “must” be based on that. There were no punches thrown, just shoving, and he was shoved out the door in the back, while the security guard stayed in the hall with us. Also, the other OOA members went out the front with Addison.

      The OOA loves digging up old photos. They found one of @endlesspictures from four years ago and one of @reaton from a few years as well. We do not know this picture is current or how he got that way.

      I understand what you’re doing and your purpose here, but it’s not happening without a fight.

    Also, not meaning to be redundant, but we are un-cryptically asked to share this video. I bet anyone that found new / effective ways of sharing it to others would immediately find themselves under heavier Tension scrutiny, which is a what a lot of people want, so here’s another chance to ‘show them what you got’.

      I found this about the ‘poem’

      Pope Benedict de Spinoza (1672-1677) – widely hailed as one of the most brilliant Popes in history, he pioneered “rational Christianity” calling on the faithful to read and study, rather than simply accept what they were told. He might have gone down as one of the greatest Popes ever, until it was discovered late in his reign that he was actually Jewish.

      Pope Benedicit ed i Getti (1973) – although officially listed as an anti-Pope, he used “the theology of revolution” as a rallying cry for Catholic youth. Even today, left-wing Catholics still use his anthem as a rallying cry.

      Hey kids, plug into the faithless
      Maybe they’re blinded
      But Bennie makes them ageless
      We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
      Where we fight our parents out in the streets
      To find who’s right and who’s wrong
      B-B-B-Bennie ed i Getti

      On the positive side, maybe it means you’ve been noted, or contributed something that pleased them. Sort of like you are being checked off as having done your job?

    Two thoughts:

    1) “False choice is the most palatable control.” Haven’t some of us been told that we have important choices to make? Is the OOA now saying those choices really mean nothing? That our path is set? This almost sounds like a BoS message as opposed to an OOA one.

    2) “Make her forget all that she knows.” Seems like confirmation that Addison’s memories have been tampered with, probably via helmet.

      Yes, I didn’t add all the tensions in between and that could also have meaning, as well as what photo’s followed certain words e.g. stalkers and criminals was before the first group photo, corrupting influence before the picture of two x’d out people etc.

    So I can’t completely see that @randomguy1979 HOWEVER it does kinda make sense. A few weeks ago the forum had a character named Mr. Ohio. He vanished. It’s a long story but later on we deduced that GateKeeper4 was Mr. Ohio in disguise. Clever girl. So combining the two phrases Goodnight Mr Ohio and Ohayou gozaimasu is actually VERY clever mash.

    I love it.

    I find most interesting the construction of the word “ambivalence” as a progression of three words: valence -> bivalence -> ambivalence.

    Of course, we surely all remember our basic chemistry, and recall that the valence level of an atom is the number of electrons in its outer “shell,” with the trend being that atoms tend to “seek” a number of seven electrons in “orbit” (the Bohr model is a lie, but a useful metaphor). Quantum electrodynamics would go on to show that the framework of electrons as a stable state around a nucleus is inherently limited, and that it exists as more of a cloud-like state of probability. Sub-atomic particles, after all, only exist as observed when their wave function is collapsed, and perhaps the OOA would like to remind us that we, too, are made up of this stuff of impermanence. We are, in fact, a lie.

    Bivalence, however, is the law of the excluded middle. In logic and math, there can only be one of two possible states of being for a value, statement, or equation: true or false. This, too, raises problems, because it inevitably leads to a paradox when the system of information that expresses these truths runs loggerheads against itself, and we find the language impossible to use. Light can be both wave and particle. Things can be both true and false. You can be both right and wrong. I imagine, and I earnestly hope the OOA shares this vision, that our error is in treating bivalence as a constant throughout time. Time is, it would seem, the missing variable here, and if we treat the idea of true and false, of right and wrong – of identity itself, even – as a function of relativity to its position in the spacetime continuum, then we may come closer to breaking out of the paradox of bivalence.

    Ambivalence, then, is perhaps where we should be. It presumes no conclusion. It stakes no claims. It adapts, and it evolves with new information in a system of constant change. Maybe none of us are who we think we are. Maybe the crossing-out of faces is a reminder that the camera only records your image, and that we only exist when we face each other, collapsing each others’ wave functions through direct observation. Maybe I’m not even writing this right now – after all, I am alone.

    Maybe, as Gatekeeper 4 said, we are all one.

      Hold up @prufrock5150. So elements don’t seek 8 valence electrons? Does that mean the NOBLE gases are frauds? Lol. I’m learning basic chemistry and they still teach the bohr model. I have to ask do you study quantum grammar?

      Good catch – that should surely read eight. Quantum Grammar is an interesting idea, but I sense that David Wynn Miller is… conflicted. Math is a language, it is true. Any equation or expression can be read as a sentence, and any language can be expressed as a series of propositions, symbolized and formalized into a logical system. Early work provided LSL, the Language of Sentential Logic (here’s an interesting start http://philosophy.hku.hk/think/sl/intro.php), and upon encountering paradox (specifically that of the Existential Statement (https://proofwiki.org/wiki/Definition:Existential_Statement)) further developed into LMPL, the language of Monadic Predicate Logic. Then came First-Order and Second-Order Logic, with which we code AI (to make a long story short). The idea of the quantum as applied to language would have to be the idea of doing away with the Law of the Excluded Middle (LEM) that forms the principle of bivalence. In English, we have the Anthropological-Semiotic history of Levi-Strauss, who (building on De Saussure and others) pointed out the binary opposition (up/down, left/right, good/bad) on which many concepts rely, not unrelated to the dialectical theories of Hegel and Confucian Taoism (https://prezi.com/1m-cn2bvetra/binary-opposition-theory-media-studies/). I think I’ve mentioned this, but one idea is to break out of the LEM by treating bivalence as a function of time, that is treating a proposition as true or false, but only insofar as it stands in terms of position along a temporal continuum, and therefore allow for the possibility of its being both true and false. This framework would reflect our understanding of a linear reality to a much more faithful degree, as evolutionary adaptation of cognitive structures will often yield reversals and changes of understanding throughout time. Extended into the framework of an Artificial Intelligence program, I imagine, would hopefully bring us closer to the goal of self-awareness.

      @astro4545 pull out your Sherlock Holmes pipe and do some sleuthing. I struggle with the puzzles as well. But there is always a need for more detective work.

    • #10457

      Calling them puzzles may be a bit of a misnomer, as the only conventional puzzle that exists is the one on the front page. The “puzzles” that we are given aren’t straightforward at all, they are hunting through information given for hidden or obscured meanings. What we gather from pictures, videos, and events are normally only fragments: a stray number, a repeated phrase, someone acting a bit unusual… which are puzzle pieces to a bigger puzzle that we barely grasp in the first place.

      Look not at individual pieces for a “solution” to a video or a picture or anything, look at each of them as giving you a piece that takes you another step closer to the puzzle that is The Tension Experience as a whole
