Fwd: Valenzetti Equation - Lostpedia - The Lost Encyclopedia

by Romy Ilano

Chez Hacker weekend -- lost theme / dharma initiative part of the dharma initiative was obsessed with solving the Valenzetti Equation - which captured the number of days and years until humanity would end. alternative energy options to save the world? ---=> http://www2.technologyreview.com/tr35/profile.aspx?TRID=1302 drawing on the German Lebensreformen movements which advocated a return to nature, vegetarianism, a celebration of hiking and healthy living which was actually one of the true sources of the hippie movement in California (i will bring the book children of the sun / gordon kennedy) http://books.google.com/books/about/Children_of_the_Sun.html?id=JrRIAgAACAAJ - Will Jae appear? how will we prove ourselves worthy to receive his presence again?what has he discovered about additive manufacturing and job creation for oakland during his wanderings in the desert de las vegas ????? <3 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Romy Ilano <romy.ilano(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Apr 16, 2013 at 10:37 AM Subject: Valenzetti Equation - Lostpedia - The Lost Encyclopedia To: Romy Ilano <romy(a)snowyla.com> http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Valenzetti_Equation Valenzetti Equation **[image: Valenzettiequationfull] <img alt="Valenzettiequationfull" src="http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080728151534/lostpedia/images/thumb…" width="200" height="108" /><http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080728151534/lostpedia/images/7/77/…> ** Part of the equation seen on Valenzettiequation.com<http://wiki/Valenzettiequation.com>, though this may not necessarily be canon <http://wiki/Canon>. *The Valenzetti Equation* is the mathematical equation developed by the reclusive Princeton University mathematician Enzo Valenzetti<http://wiki/Enzo_Valenzetti>. Its creation was the result of efforts made following the Cuban Missile Crisis by the United States and the Soviet Union to find a solution to the hostility and danger of imminent global disaster created by the Cold War. The equation was secretly commissioned through the UN Security Council and is used to predict the time of human extinction. According to the 1975 orientation film <http://wiki/Orientation_film> in the Sri Lanka Video <http://wiki/Sri_Lanka_Video>, the Valenzetti Equation "predicts the exact number of years and months until humanity extinguishes itself." **[image: 89rmcocdc6d segment 320x240] <img alt="89rmcocdc6d segment 320x240" src="http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20060805031734/lostpedia/images/thumb…" width="200" height="150" /><http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20060805031734/lostpedia/images/d/da/…> ** Unknown man writing the Valenzetti Equation on a chalkboard in the Sri Lanka Video. During the video, Alvar Hanso <http://wiki/Alvar_Hanso> also states that the radio transmitter on the Island <http://wiki/Radio_Tower>, will "broadcast the core numerical values of the Valenzetti Equation." The numbers <http://wiki/The_numbers>: 4 <http://wiki/4>, 8 <http://wiki/8>, 15<http://wiki/15>, 16 <http://wiki/16>, 23 <http://wiki/23> and 42 <http://wiki/42> are explained in the Sri Lanka Video <http://wiki/Sri_Lanka_Video> as the numerical values to the core environmental and human factors of the Valenzetti Equation. Alvar Hanso also states in the video that the purpose of the DHARMA Initiative <http://wiki/DHARMA_Initiative> is to change the numerical values of any one of the core factors in the equation in order to give humanity a chance to survive by, effectively, changing doomsday. However, Thomas Mittelwerk <http://wiki/Thomas_Mittelwerk> reveals that as of 2006, they have failed to change the values through manipulating the environment, as the equation continues to arrive at the same six numbers. It is unknown how or if the most recent calculation of the equation is automatically reflected in the radio transmissions. Rachel Blake <http://wiki/Rachel_Blake> also learned that the Hanso Foundation was forcing savants at the Vik Institute<http://wiki/Vik_Institute>in Iceland to run the equation over and over. Somehow, five hieroglyphic <http://wiki/Hieroglyphics> symbols were involved in the calculations (Armand Zander <http://wiki/Armand_Zander> described them as "representative"), the same hieroglyphs seen on the countdown timer<http://wiki/Countdown_timer>in the Swan <http://wiki/The_Swan> station. The Blast Door Map <http://wiki/Blast_Door_Map> included a reference to the equation; a zone on the island is marked as being of "low relevance to Valenzetti-related research activity".

a couple of things

by :::Marty:::

A person from The Public School wanted to do a screening of Vanishing of the Bees http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1521877/ on the Tuesday the 23rd of this month in the common space. I wanted to check if that is okay. I tried to put it on the calendar but it appears broken (plug-in needs updating FYI) I also wanted to share that we are doing a game/event on Saturday May 4th called Terra Incognita where you explore the city and make a game of it. We are still working out details but the original info is here: http://demilit.tumblr.com/terraincognita and the event is here: http://thepublicschool.org/node/34285 Also wanted to float the idea of a "meeting of the minds/party" between the groups that share the suite. A chance to learn more about the various projects happening at sudoroom/the public school/ and others, network and interface. Like Hacker Happy hour but with a little more structured discussion. Just a thought Oh and the suggestion for a class on the history of telecom systems would be awesome.

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/wp-admin/tools.php?page=crm/crm.php Hi, I downloaded a super simple CRM and installed it on the SudoRoom Wordpress. I'm putting down email addresses that are on our sign-up poster. I'm adding people who randomly wander in. I'malso adding details -- one cool guy that came said that he knows one of the original inventors from way back of 3D PRinting and he can get that guy to come in and talk to us and hang out! wow! They asked me to send them a link to the wiki for SudoRoom--many are curious about what else is there to offer. I'm going to email them some quick link, make it short and sweet. - should embed if possible the wepay donation button into the welcome page! people are short ontime, but very nice and generous!!! <3
