25 FEB : THE ILM CHALLENGE OF TIME - 1 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Forty years after starting the spatial and aerobatic exploration of the kingdom of the skies, I humbly confess that I discovered the secret of gods, a tremendous hope in the transformation of a civilisation which started a very long time ago in Mesopotamia, in Crete, in Egypt, and Sicily which made a deep change two thousand years ago, and which is now reaching a new essential milestone. Supported by an economical crisis, an ecological shakeup, and the understanding by individuals of their own responsibility in the mastering of their destiny, this current change of civilisation is definitely a force on its way that nobody can stop. We are here, and, like Homer, we are not blind. Ulysses made a good trip, and there is only one way to go, difference and sharing in unity… A fundamental compromise in aerobatics. A new world disregarding dogmas, a renewal of our deepest beliefs, a new Utopia will surge, but a reasonable utopia, the representation of which is deep in the heart of the aerobatic pilot who knows very well that, beyond his short-life figures in three dimensions, stands the door of the fourth one. Time that is also to be explored in a crazy way, with the immediate benefit that this operation is at no cost, but in a perspective without any mirror, although past is obviously most important to understand the permanent change, and to anticipate it, because there is no reverse gear in cosmos. Therefore, we will participate in the reign of our poetry in action, free of charge, but able to give a meaning to life, without being lured by words, without bluff. To understand each other, we will need a universal and intemporal code. Therefore, we will play with the Roman alphabet with 23 letters (our alphabet without J,V and W) which will take you to the time of our origins, and we will give to each letter of this alphabet the weight of its order number…
In this frame, MOTEGI weighs 66 (the sum of both numbers is 12 M, and the product 36 CF), which is the triangular number of 11 (L)… Since 52 (EB) is the reverse of 25 (BE), I will take you directyl to the origin of BEBE, through the famous magical latin square 5x5 SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS
It is a « palindrome » that can be read in several directions, from left to right, from right to left, from bottom to top and from top to bottom. A knitting weave or the loops of an ox ploughing. © Copyright Jean Louis Monnet |
