++> Retrospection (Reachback)
 
   Just thought I might share some bits on my own "illusions" of
   reachback experiences. In working on my family history and art
   probes....   (hoping it not a repeat; memory decompression code
   ain't ain't aint' what it once were ...was...were!!!
 
   In earlier days I wandered into the Egyptian experience trying to use
   art as a probe (even as you use correlations of history, archeology
   myth & ...chemistry). I reproduced known pieces and some reconstructions
   from fragmentary remains. In doing the family history, I filled the
   house with paintings of a Sicily as it would have looked to all the
   family dead of a last several hundred years (my collective unconscious).
   Carefully researched, they serve as my illusionary "keylets" of passing
   everyday focus. From time to time "something" itches my brain to make
   minor changes which I do. Many are portraits frozen in stare (at me).
 
   The EGYPTIAN model: In reproducing an artpieces that no longer existed
   in complete form, I employed some help from the artists that would have
   created the originals. i.e of a primary interest, I recreated in carved
   wax polished plaster that lost Kn-aten family artwork with each their
   names cut into cartouche, their handing out of gold bracelets during a
   festa of Aten (*). .....Ken-aten, his wife Neferti (Beauty of Beauties
   of *), and their seven daughters 1. Ra-Nefer (Beauty of *), 2. Aqi-Set
   aten (Spirit of *), 3. Ra-Senpaaten (Temple of *?), 4. Ank-na-aten
   (Life of *), 5.  Khut-n-Aten (Soul of *), 6. Maat- tenti (Truth of *),
   and 7. Meriten of *). This image of the Armarna family has been
   before me for some many years and awaits its moment to shine as time
   bridge .....if such can be. 
 
   Some tick in my nature has need to see such questing as illusion,
   (however fascinating in life-fun [petch-t-haat] options); easy to
   permit only when not taken truth-serious.
 
   COMPUTER GRAPHIC PROBING:
   Graphic visualization: With the rapid advancement of computer graphics
   it may becoming possible to transfer the mostly unconscious genetic
   memory** to computer memory. I am thinking some on it as I would pursue
   a system upgrade within the next few years. I'm thinking along the
   lines of allowing my hand or heartbeat or ? to generate (free form
   graphics) a base image, then using algorithms to play/tease it into
   a form I might recognize (perhaps even to play the hand against the
   heart).  Primitive?  YES but I've always found screwy efforts to "OPEN
   DOORS" that were not known to even exist let alone be opened. Being
   an arch skeptic of intuition search systems slows me down a some, but
   also supplies some stability restraints on any over enthusiasms.
   Might even have to learn a new programming language as GW BASIC has
   gotten a bit "long of tooth" (like me!).
