(Above: In a reversal of roles, the sun shines brilliantly through an old television’s screen, displaying reality to the moldering technology within.)
Active Summary: After performing today’s early-morning regimen of calisthenics, writing, and a beef herd check, I set about working on Macroeconomics. This was followed by about 1.25 hours of helping Wag move more items from Oldhouse to various new locations. A garden harvest followed and was then ensued by a visit with Padre at his studio, after which, we made a delectable lunch of grilled coconut-oil-basted burger steaks, sautéed rapini / kale / snap peas, and coleslaw.
(5:25 PM Update:) Afternoon activities consisted of cow-related activities (feeding / catching / etc.), extracting lenses out of the large TV from Oldhouse, and retrieving seed packets from the mailbox. Now, I’m writing today’s entry before heading out for the evening ride-around.
TIL: Today, while researching various writing-related topics, I came across a unique fact about auras: the often-invisible field of aethereal energy to be found surrounding living* entities. Nikola Tesla was one of the first people to photograph auras surrounding individuals. Then, after a time gap of about 70 years, the Soviet Union performed a number of aura-related experiments in the 1960’s. Alas, after the 1970’s – 1980’s, hardly any research was made into this field.
A number of people say that the reason for this abrupt end to aether-related research is due to computing technology making some extraordinary breakthroughs in the 1970s and 1980s. People (especially the smart ones) are drawn to profit, so computer technology was of much greater allure than a field of science that had yet to see a major breakthrough. As time goes on and as computing technology reaches a plateau, I wonder if we will return to the intriguing field of Aethereal study. Perhaps humanity’s study of Qauntum mechanics will lead into it.
Either way, here is a book I’m thinking about procuring. I read a few of the pages within and found them to be well-written. The author’s name (Rho Sigma) is a pseudonym, but many people believe he is one of the Third Reich scientists that were ‘stolen’ by the United States from Germany at the end of World War II.
Ether Technology: A Rational Approach to Gravity Control
Commentary: I do not have much more commentary for the day, but I will say that I’m looking forward to seeing what comes of this new batch of seeds. Speaking of which, here they are:
Final Note: It shall soon be time for planting. Likely tomorrow or the day after. In other shenanigans, I believe Oldhouse will be signed-over to its new residence tomorrow… and there may be a sushi lunch afterward.
*Apparently, objects can store their own aethereal energy as well, according to some of the research I made earlier.
