The well-tempered piano keyboard is the perfect
instrument for teaching students of astronomy &
astrology & mythology the fundamental qualities
and dispositions of the planets in the signs of
the chromatic octave: the sacred glomes of life.

Before continuing, be sure to download and save
the Key Signatures of the Gods chart which I've
composed and posted to usenet newsgroups, which
is archived, labeled, and linked on my homepage:

*Key Signatures Of The Gods:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=CII1HZO03739...@Gilgamesh-frog.org

*Min's Star Charts Homepage:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=AQA0W20S3741...@Nyarlatheotep-frog.org

This "Key Signatures" chart shows how the seven
primary diatonic modalities of the planets tran-
spose across the chromatic octave of the zodiac,
making a total of 7 x 12 = 84 unique signatures
of the planets, as they interact with the signs:
objective on the caelestial sphere & subjective
in the terrestrial sphere, of temple-meridional.

The simple rule to remember is: Planets empower
the diatonic modes in their sidereal orbits, as
the same Planets empower the chromatic signs of
the synodic zodiac. Be sure to study the charts
linked on my "Beginner's Reference" if you have
trouble understanding this rule. Otherwise, you
can proceed to experiment with this rule on any
chromatically-tuned musical instrument. A piano,
or similar keyboard instrument, is probably the
easiest to demonstrate how these key signatures
actually work, how the diatonic modes sound and
feel when played in each of the twelve notes in
the octave. As you play each modality up & down
in each of the 84 unique key signatures, you'll
learn how each planet performs in each sign, as
each of the seven modalities is verily composed
of seven planets in seven signs. This is really
quite simple to do, once you get the hang of it.

Do this, learn this, practice this, then you'll
begin to actually hear the music of the spheres!
You'll learn to recognize the qualities and the
dispositions of the planets in all of the signs.

Don't forget, the outer planets Uranus, Neptune
and Pluto are an octave below the Moon, Mercury
& Venus, respectively. I've said enough already.

[amazingly moronic crap deleted]


Some years ago I saw a cheapy-ass science fiction film that treated the
idea of the planets singing to each other very seriously. Even though the
film was amateurish in most regards, it was terribly imaginative & cool.
I'd love to see it again, but I don't recall what it was called so can't
check to see if it is available on video. Anyone remember this film??

Sounds like something Kilgore Trout would come up with, except that
he would have them all sing in the wrong key. Then some astronauts
arrive and teach them to sing in harmony with said harmonics destroying
the solar system from their vibration killing all sentient life.

Nope, but apparently, they're filming an American version of The
Singing Detective with Robert Downey Jr. and Mel Gibson. Oy.

If someone *really* wanted to cancel his posts (or delete his bullshit
from Google) then morphing his name wouldn't make a damned bit of
difference. In fact morphing is one good way to annoy someone enough to

I liked the british tv version. The extreme length of it was part of its
effect, hard to imagine it compacted into one film with as much merit.
There was also a british mini-series version of The Life & Times of a
She-Devil that rocked, but it was remade as an American film starring
Roseanne Barr, & even if you liked Roseanne (which I rather did at the
time) that film nevertheless sucks.

Gibson can't act though he looks nice in kilt. I tried to give him every
break I could cuz he does entertain me from time to time, but when he
really got tested trying to be Hamlet, there was no longer any denying it:
If a role calls for him to act, he fails. If it's all posing, he's darned
good. I saw him in Golipoli when it was a new film & nobody had ever seen
him before, & instnatly thought he had beauty & charm & presence, & my
liking of him hasn't worn out with time, but he isn't skillful enough for
the Singing Detective. Harrison Ford might pull it off if Hollywood
insists on a Star star. Though if I get to cast it, I'm calling John
Malkovitch & Brad Dorif.

That's uncanny.

Ever read _Venus on the Half-Shell_? Philip Jose Farmer does a quite
credible Kilgore Trout.

Yoohoo. I just gotta see the film of that.

Actually, it does sound like Venus on the Halfshell by KIlgore Trout (as
impersonated by Philip Jose Farmer.

Gibson is good only in flicks that are surreal or unrealistic. That
proves he can't act in real-life scenarios. That makes him about as
shallow as a sake cup. But I bet that you, paghat, would like to
mount Gibson with a 10" dildo strapped around your pert backside.
You'd raise his kilt and ram it home singing a Scottish ballad,
wouldn't ye, lass?

Vonnegut was not happy with Farmer using Trout so I have avoided
it. I might give it a read if I can find it on tape.

>

That's why I got the tape of Vonnegut reading his own book. The
movie got messed up, that I guess that's to be expected. Even
with such great prospects for the cast (I did think Finney played
a great Trout) the movie didn't even carry the spirit of the book.
If it had done so Vonnegut himself, or someone much like him,
would have been in the movie. You might like the movie better
than I did. Mother Night was ok, but I was very disappointed
with how they changed Breakfast, even though it had some
very funny moments. Read the comments that viewers left
http://us.imdb.com/CommentsShow?120618
and you will see what I mean.

Unwatchable. If you'd seen the real one, anyway.

I liked him in "Conspiracy Theory." I can't point to anything else he's done
and call it "acting" though.

Poop on Vonnegut.

It's a short little book, and much fun, especially if you've read a lot of
Vonnegut.

Well cancelling is easy enough, just issue a cancel message containing
the message ID you want to cancel. Since Min is dumb enough to sign all
his posts it would be easy to automate this process, cancelling
everything signed by him. Whether servers will honour your posts is
another matter.

Getting articles scrubbed from Google could be tricky, but if you could
convince their admin people through some social engineering that you are
he then it could be done.

Of course I wouldn't encourage such behaviour, but I can understand it.
People who morph to escape killfiles are basically inviting retaliatory
measures.

the idiot Min simply hijacked an old idea and inarticulately repeated
it. the following is from the dartmouth site, on the origins of the
"music of the spheres"

"It seemed clear to the Pythagoreans that the distances between
the planets would have the same ratios as produced harmonious sounds
in a plucked string. To them, the solar system consisted of ten
spheres revolving in circles about a central fire, each sphere giving
off a sound the way a projectile makes a sound as it swished through
the air; the closer spheres gave lower tones while the farther moved
faster and gave higher pitched sounds. All combined into a beautiful
harmony, the music of the spheres."

The idea still had some credibility in the Middle Ages (the
astronomer Kepler, for example, seems to have believed it), but was on
the way out. Since Min has only a Dark Age/Ren Faire mind, his
attraction to the idea is obvious.

Maybe I was just impressed with the departure, however minor, from his stock
character. Even so, the part fit him pretty well. I've also attributed good
performances to good acting only to go back later and see that it was in fact
good directing.

Nope -- I don't get her either, but that's mass appeal for ya.
