Plato's musical time capsule: secret wisdom!

Postby brinstar » Tue Jun 29, 2010 4:02 pm

this story blew my mind today: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/ju ... sical-code

the gist is basically that Plato used music theory to hide his true philosophies beneath his texts, which include a) that the universe is governed by mathematics and b) that science is a path that leads to (not away from) understanding the true nature of god-- and that's just what he's picked out so far.

everything we believed about plato was a fraction of his true philosophy (which he hid to avoid gettin' moidah'd), and now that the code is unlocked we will soon see just how much plat0wned~!!!!!!!!!!


fucking excited
