“Jeroen Theuns is a visionary architect and mathematician, renowned for his mastery of geometric algebra.“
Someone apparently wrote this about me, but it’s not ’true’, at least not as I see it at all and furthermore, what would such statement even mean? Why do people write these things they think are true? What is it we tend to call “truth”?
You see, I have this constant urge to stay curious and for that reason I will always ask and wonder then… WHY?
Why? This child-like curiosity I refuse to outgrow? Some resonance perhaps to Feynman’s Pleasure of Finding Things Out? Or does it simply Stop Making Sense? Do U2 see all these connections, Just for the Fun of it all?
Where-when Nothing is static and not even that. Why? Tell me Why? !? Kermit? WHY?!?

Why are there so many
Songs about rainbows
And what’s on the other side?
Rainbows are visions
But only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
What’s so amazing that keeps us stargazing
And what do we think we might see?
Someday we’ll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
All of us under its spell
We know that it’s probably magic
Have you been half asleep
And have you heard voices?
I’ve heard them calling my name
I’ve heard it too many times to ignore it
It’s something that I’m supposed to be
Someday we’ll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
…
Why are there so many songs about rainbows
That’s part of what rainbows do
Rainbows are memories, sweet dream reminders
What is it you’d like to do
All of us watching and wishing we find it
I noticed you’re watching, too
Someday you’ll find it
the Rainbow Connection
The lovers, the dreamers and…
Life’s like a movie
Write your own ending
Keep believing
Keep pretending
We’ve done just what we’ve set out to do
Thanks to the lovers, the dreamers, and
YU!
P.S. Wow! That last word! It’s sound, a signal?! You just have to watch, keep watching this and life’s movie entirely now, don’t Yu?
If you are reading this far, I might as well tell you, for well…
Where this story will never ever and end started beginning the seasons of When.
One day, the Mountain had sung for me. I heard the echo of Minds…

Let’s meet! I mean it, you’re in it. If you’ll allow it. I’m expecting you.
We’ll recognize each other
in a tear called Compassion
A Child Like Empress and one little Chninkel named Y’un,
fivefold, sharing, caring a Yuniverse, Quest for Now!
It happened and happens over and over ages beyond.
Let’s meet! I mean it, you’re in it. If you’ll allow it? I’m expecting you.
We’ll recognize each other
in a tear called Compassion
It is ALL ONE and
MY GOD, IT’S FULL OF…
MUSIC! ?!?
Obviously this one is deeply connected to Escher, Roger Penrose, Astor Piazzola, my dad, my youth and an invitation to “3D Topcamp” I got from some curious guy in Lund: Felix Heuman. Someday you might find out a little bit more about Krompluk as I am trying to figure this out. There are some credits at the end, but YES this is done purely in SketchUp. Ok, I did use some Linear Algebra and the SketchUp Ruby API too. Pre A.I. though. Being an architect helps too. Wish I could have done this using the elegance of Geometric Algebra, spirals are such a natural fit. Unfortunately so far I did not yet fully succeed in porting Steven De Keninck’s Ganja.js to Ruby. I tried, for sure! So here is how it all goes: just keep Looking around, At Trees for instance. Do it long enough and as Steve pointed out on Brand’s back of the Whole Earth Epilogue: Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish.
It is ALL ONE and connected, related; Anaximander, The Alhambra, Leonardo of Pisa, Nicolaus Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Buruch Spinoza, Isaac Newton, Johann Sebastian Bach, Leonard Euler, James Clerk Maxwell, Albert Einstein, Max Born, Erwin Schrodinger, Werner Heisenberg, Paul Dirac, Richard Feynman, Stephen Hawking, Leonard Susskind, Carlo Rovelli. Douglas Hofstadter and Adams. Asimov Isaac, Athur C. Clarke and Theodore Sturgeon. The Gods Themselves in the Restaurant at the end of the Yuniverse. Cosey, Andreas, Rossinski and Schuiten. Marvano, Shaun Tan and Kermit the Frog. Then Richard Bach, perhaps it’s all… Krompluk’s Illusions? Looked at from Mitchells Both Sides Now? And now YOU, since I noticed you’re reading this too!
Oh well, guess I am some kind of architect after all: trying to figure things out. Intrigued by patterns and numbers. Connections, playing Geometry and a tiny bit of Algebra.
I couldn’t help it, this story was Krompluk, again.
So, there You have it. That’s just how I sea it for N’ow.
