Piles of paper cut Art & Design Jen Stark uses piles of paper and than cuts them to reveal colored layers. Ongs Hat: Gateway to the Dimensions! A full color brochure for the Institute of Chaos Studies and the Moorish Science Ashram in Ong's Hat, New Jersey. YOU WOULD NOT BE READING THIS ARTICLE if you had not already penetrated half-way to the ICS. You have been searching for us without knowing it, following oblique references in crudely xeroxed marginal samizdat publications, crackpot mystical pamphlets, mail-order courses in "Kaos Magick"—a paper trail and a coded series of rumors spread at street level through circles involved in the illicit distribution of certain controlled substances and the propagation of certain acts of insurrection against the Planetary Work Machine and the Consensus Reality—or perhaps through various obscure mimeographed technical papers on the edges of "chaos science"—through pirate computer networks—or even through pure syncronicity and the pursuit of dreams. In any case we know something about you, your interests, deeds and desires, works and days—and we know your address. Where is Ong's Hat?

a Theory of Six Dimensions An Existence of Six Dimensions - an exercise in Geometry by Ithamar Eshpar Let's define a dot as our theoretical atom: We'll select a dot which we'll name "the Zero Dot" To define a line, we'll put another dot on one side of the Zero Dot, and another one on it's other side. We have defined a DIRECTION which we'll call "Length". We shall now define another line, using the same method and under the following rule: the new line will cross the first one at the Zero Dot exactly, and will be perpendicular to it. We have now defined an infinite number of dots, that have one thing in common: they all belong to the same PLANE, which is defined by the Length line and the Width line. We shall now define a third axis according to the same rule: an axis that crosses the previous two at the zero dot, and is perpendicular to both. The group of new dots will be called "Space". So far we have defined three dimensions, but what is the FOURTH dimension? * An elaboration about the fifth and sixth dimension

Thinking Unconventionally A Letter from a College Professor Some time ago I received a call from a colleague, who asked if I would be the referee on the grading of an examination question. He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physics question, while the student claimed he should receive a perfect score and would if the system were not set up against the student. The instructor and the student agreed to an impartial arbiter, and I was selected. The student had answered: "Take the barometer to the top of the building, attach a long rope to it, lower it to the street, and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. I pointed out that the student really had a strong case for full credit since he had really answered the question completely and correctly. I gave the student six minutes to answer the question with the warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. "Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. "Well," said the student.

Customise your trip to Paris (and vicinity) Art/Culture In November 1855, the Great Ansei Earthquake struck the city of Edo (now Tokyo), claiming 7,000 lives and inflicting widespread damage. Within days, a new type of color woodblock print known as namazu-e (lit. "catfish pictures") became popular among the residents of the shaken city. These prints featured depictions of mythical giant catfish (namazu) who, according to popular legend, caused earthquakes by thrashing about in their underground lairs. In addition to providing humor and social commentary, many prints claimed to offer protection from future earthquakes. 1. The popularity of namazu-e exploded, and as many as 400 different types became available within weeks. 2. Namazu are normally kept under control by the god Kashima using a large rock known as kaname-ishi. 3. This print shows a namazu engaged in a fierce game of "neck tug-of-war" with the god Kashima. 4. 5. 6. This print shows a mob of earthquake victims coming to take revenge on a namazu and its children. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.
