Curating the art, experiments & studies of Michael Rosola
On a recent walk I was listening to a podcast that discussed translations of ancient Sumerian tablets and the lore they contained about the Anunnaki. I won’t expound on it very much except to say that it conveys an incredible set of creation myths, many of which you can directly trace elements right up through […]
Read More Anunnaki Human Genome AnalysisI write this with a degree of uncertainty as to whether it is ready to share as I cannot yet fully defend it against criticisms that I can fully anticipate. Therefore, I ask that you to consider this a novel thought experiment. It extends a past hypothesis upon which I have written concerning a reimagining […]
Read More Quantum Addendum to my Hypothesis on the nature of antimatterAs I’ve discussed before, many great findings in mathematics have arisen from the study of silly arbitrary functions. These functions often look quite simple but produce surprising results when carried out at length. Occasionally I attempt to come up with my own novel routine and almost always find that they collapse to something well known […]
Read More Study of a Modulo SequenceI have a very long history of studying, constructing and playing with higher dimensional objects and since they are naturally of an intangible nature it seemed to me that NFTs are perhaps a perfect medium to actually possess one. Not sure what a Non Fungible Token (NFT) is? Look into it and come back! To […]
Read More 4 Dimensional Morse Shadow Puzzle NFTErnst Chlandi was a scientist in the late 18th century that is often referred to as the father of acoustics. One of his contributions was the development of Chlandi Plates, a means of studying wave patterns. In these experiments a metal plate of a particular geometry is suspended, sand is placed on it and a […]
Read More Studies in Chlandi FiguresSome time back I created a word game to play with the kids on long car rides. The objective of the game is to agree on two words and then see who can first come up with a series of changes starting from the first word that get you to the second. The changes allowed […]
Read More How to Take the Fun out of a Word GameRather than fully bake this idea before writing up a post on it (not that anyone reads this stuff but me anyhow) I thought I would experiment with writing as I think with minimal retroactive edits, so let’s see how this goes! I am playing with the point of view that all integers can be […]
Read More Geometric Nature of Integers (incomplete)If you follow my blog you have probably noticed that I spend a good amount of time thinking about and simulating interactions and geometry in higher dimensional spaces. I enjoy looking for ways to describe mundane behavior we experience through higher dimensional mechanics. While this often describes the simple and obvious through convoluted means, I […]
Read More Hypothesis on the Nature of MatterAn observation I’ve made on mathematics is that much of it seems to be able to be traced back to some bored mathematician coming up with a seemingly arbitrarily rule system for fun and following it through to conclusion. In so doing they discover interesting and often seemingly useless principles along the way. This fine […]
Read More Gendered NumbersExpressing a known behavior in a new way has the potential to expose new thinking and opportunities. I was thinking a bit about how to express absolute position exclusively via rotation. I started to think about the rotating light in a light house and the light it would cast on a curtain hung between you […]
Read More Linear Motion via Higher Dimensional RotationsI recall I was taking a shower and was thinking about the mathematics of mobiles, something for another post, but during this I got to thinking about how to generalize a formula for finding the point to balance a triangle such that it would hang like this: I sorted most of it out in my […]
Read More Balancing a TriangleAs more of a study in multidimensional reflections I devised and built the software for an encryption system that obfuscates a message through essentially multidimensional billiards. The process works like this: I define two boundaries, a large outer hypercube within which is a smaller hypercube. Bounded within the large hypercube and containing the smaller hypercube […]
Read More Multidimensional EncryptionThere is a fun visual proof for the formula for the area of circle and it can be used to illustrate the essence of calculus. Here is a fun animation: As you can see, you peel away the circumference of a circle and lay it down as a horizontal line. Then you peel away the […]
Read More Generalized Area of a Polygon SolutionMy solar orrery is an artistic design to encode the position of the sun into the surface of a cylindrical wooden block such that it could be rotated to a given date and a rotating 24hr dial riding on a stylus on a snaking groove on the surface of the cylinder would point at the […]
