Postmaster@Imperial.ac,uk 1/2/ 1999 9:14 pm

Sir I would greatly appreciate it if this and the following e-mail could please be forwarded to Professor Steve Jones.
Yours sincerely
David Denison.


Steve Jones

Sir,
Do you recall towards the end of the year 1999 being bombarded with images and text, by a former prison officer. That work was sent to you under great creative duress and I hope it did not give offence.

The work resulting from that frenetic beginning is now drawing toward fruition and is presently posted on the internet.

I have no academic contacts and write to you once more to ask if you would be kind enough to read the messages contained in these two e-mails.
If your commitments prevent this I would appreciate the information being made available to someone who may be able to help evaluate its content.

This is in the main to do with links between language and number.

For example, HAFNIUM has the atomic number 72.
If that word is transcribed into number via the position each letter occupies within the context of the English Alphabet. ie A = 1 and Z = 26 the word Hafnium initially adds up to 72 numerologically this is then condensed becoming 36, finally 3+6 is added to reveal a root number for the word Hafnium of 9.

If the same criteria is applied to the Greek word IOTA which is the ninth letter of the Greek alphabet. The final
distillation of the transposed letters we arrive at number 9.

ADD TO REDUCE REDUCE TO DEDUCE

JUPITER the largest of the planets reduces as follows

Jupiter = 99
Jupiter = 36
Jupiter = 9

The root number of the 3 lettered word SUN is also 9

The root number of the 4 lettered word MOON is 57 reducing initially to 21 and then to 3

The root number of the 5 lettered word EARTH is 52 reducing via 25 to 7

Add to reduce reduce to deduce. That is the key revealing the numerical language links contained within this hidden Magikalalphabet. Coincidental? patterns in abundance

Further examples.
The reference to self, as expressed in the letter I is a constant reiteration of the symbol indicating the 9th position occupied by that letter in the English Alphabet. And that particular language is the conduit that reveals further understanding of those refracted patterns of energies we consider our reality.
The web site contains a mass of information, including hundreds of transcribed words, I believe it suggests another way to read reality. Through a glass sparkly.

Me = 18 then 9

Ego = 27 then 18 and 9

Conscience = 90 then 45 finally 9

Self = 42 = 15 = 6

Reality the word itself is 90 = 36 = 9

Think of the binary system numerical sequencing used in computer communications, and the curiousity exited by certain transposed words like LIVEEVIL LIVEDDEVIL.

EARTH HEART THERA and Abrahams fathers name Terah

There is another way of looking at language and number.

Arithmetical formulae secretly resident within the ENGLISH ALPHABETS CAPITAL LETTERS
H I N O S X Z
and the numbers 1 and 8

It can be seen that if these letters and numbers are inverted they remain visually the samehe same examples of this affecting the whole word are,

ONION, SIN, ZION, NIXON.

Words like Phoenix and Sphinx, or Magician Magic and Magi also contain the revolving symbols. Hereuponin other patterns begin to appear.

There are 9 planets
There are seven openings in the human head and two in the body 9 in all. (ignoring design appendages)
There are seven capital letters remain the same when inverted and two numbers, again 9.


Creative patterns can be observed that begin to tell a different story about the nature of realities intelligent living creativity, from that which is generally available unto our obscured I.

Thank you.

The review below may throw some light on previous communications.

A Ra in bow of good wishes wings its way to you

IMAGE OF THE WEEK: SURREALIST

"Where are the good painters of the 1970s In quite surprising places, very likely. One of them is in a West Yorkshire school for prison officers (of whom he is one) giving classes in first-aid. David Denison, who has a current exhibition at Ilkley Manor House, Yorkshire, is almost ,entirely self-taught. As a result he I has learned an astonishing skill
of a highly personal kind. He is a natural surrealist - a breed that is commoner in England than in more rational countries, but is very rare even here.
His imagining has a sardonic poetry of its own. His Study of a Head, for example (right),(image omitted) builds spectacjes and dentures into the structur of a skull. Each eye- socket contains minutely glitter- ing machinery like a watch. Denison is great on eyes. In another picture, a bushy insect likeness of himself sits down to make a meal of a pair of eyeballs.
'A reflective painter will often discern something cannibal in the way an artist consumes his experience and himself, but here, the arched brows and the clown- like red nose have the look of a Prime Minister of Mirth. The hilarity resides in the fantastic
human mix - the very combina- tion of ebullience and decrepi- tude that you can recognise in any pension queue. It is the living flesh of our time, shabbily facetious and libidinous but decayed and dependent on spare parts.
Other Denison pictures are more sombre, poetic, or hor- rendous. Even in their farthest extremity there is often a quality of the real from which fantastic art is usually protected. One can sense that the painter is familiar with rigoursand incongruities that are by no means imaginary. A first-aid prison officer sees vio-lence and self-mutilation, and looks aggression and despair in the face - no painter can know better the constraints from which imagination is literally the only escape. Denison's best pictures have a quality of serious need.
At 37 this remarkable painter is still little known, but Sir Roland Penrose reports that when Max Ernst came to England it was Denison that he wanted to hear about. In a year or two Denison will be famous and we shall ; wonder how we managed to neglect him.
David Denison's work will be on show at IIkley Manor House, Yorkshire until Yorkshire, until August 17."

Dear Richard,
Here as promised contained the Denizen email address.
It was a great pleasure to meet you and i'am indebted to your faither and my brudder Micheal for making the arrangements also of course to wah son Matthew who acted as coordinator exrodinaire i was much encouraged by your initial response and to say i'am magog and agog to hear from you would be an understatement.
Nevertheless i do feel you should think carefully before commiting yourself.
I believe it to be a most exciting project but would expect that having entered into it we see it through to fruition.
Best wishes
Dave Denizen

Dear Rupert Sheldrake,
Thank you for your valuable inspirational work.
I appreciate your comments regarding lengthy e-mails. Such a one follows this message, I hope you will forgive me, and that its contents will outweigh inconvenience.

Dear Steven Hawking,

Hello Sir

Sharp intake of breath, thinks

Oh no not another crank

Hm, be that as it may, this is the most important letter I’ve ever written. You are I know an eminent thinker and your time is precious. I apologise most humbly for trespassing on your life in this way and hope you eventually consider your time to have been well spent. In some small measure I can thank you by giving you images of my work. I hope you like them.

I have just stopped for my umpteenth coffee

Dave gerron wi it, were not interested, you’ve only just started

Reight then. The page I have included, which contains comments on my work and a brief history. I include not to impress, but to assure you of my utmost sincerity, and the veracity of this letter. It serves also to illustrate direction and continuity, in my quest for some understanding of the nature of things, of the human condition. In that Steve we are kith and kin. I hope it gives you some idea about me, that I am not a disembodied voice, a ghost writer. Everyone is a stranger to some one, somewhere, friends are first strangers. I know that you are a seeker like me, looking for answers to the seeming enigma of existence.

I have spent a great deal of my life in institutions of one kind or another, serving three years in the Air Force 1958-61. I am fifty six years old, retired from the Prison Service, for whom I had apparently worked twenty eight years. For eighteen of those years, amazingly, I was able to paint whilst at work. I was a prison hospital officer and the jobs that I did over that period of time, were positions fairly carefree, and with virtual total autonomy.

I hope this is not a total ball ache for you Steve but honest injun, I am to pardon the pun, trying to put you in the picture, this biographical ephemera might help. Whilst in the RAF in 1958, I started copying old master drawings. Then in 1963 I started to paint and have done so until the last few years, during which I have travelled pretty extensively. I was married briefly, I have three grown up kids, one son, two daughters. I have lived on my own nearly all my adult life. For a few months I have had two girls living with me, who have been working abroad and go back in February. I mention this because they are featured in the tapes. One of the girls was a personal friend who has a dog which I have looked after for eighteen months, the dog unfortunately has split into three, so I’ve now got three dogs from none.

For as long as I can remember, the koan bone I have worried has been


Ah sweet mystery of life

At last I’ve found you

We walk the same road, I was destined to walk it, thoughtfully, but thus far alone. Formal education for me finished at fifteen and may account for the somewhat idiosyncratic way I have of expressing myself, although I am trying to keep it ordered, so please bare with me.

Meanwhile back at the ranch.

Look abroad through natures range

Natures mighty law is changed

Thank you for that one dear Robbie

I started to paint in 1963, I had never done so before and cannot recall much of an interest whilst at school. I have never received any lessons, that I think was important. In 1966 I prepared the surface of a piece of hardboard and primed it with white emulsion paint. It was perhaps thirty six by thirty inches. This was maybe the seventh attempt at a painting, nothing much. After drawing a huge head, I simply divided it into segments, painted, thickly and quickly in different colours.

This is the situation, I was working at Wakefield Prison, working horrendous hours, hours that would have killed an hoss, overtime was totally compulsory and could be detailed at a moments notice. Personally I was frustrated, there were not many to whom I could talk. Staff, friends and inmates everywhere, and not a drop to think.

The painting. The frustration engendered by this simplistic image, I can recall feeling stumped and stymied, redundant in its presence. What am I trying to do anyway? So the pressure continued to build, as I chopped and changed, eventually the head was covered in numerous coats of paint. Something then happened which was rather wonderful. One day staring at the painting, a different state of consciousness took over. I attacked the geometrical precision of the image, physically with my bare fingers. Each succeeding coat of paint had dried at different rates. The one nearest the emulsion was the driest because of the unsealed capillary action of the hardboard, the paint had become very pliable, almost plasticine like. The technique depended on the pressure exerted by the finger nails, dragging across the surface, perhaps through four layers of paint in various stages of drying and it depended on that for its effect. Evocation Van Gough.

It is now 5.30 am in the morning, I’m sorry about my voice, it seems to be going, I’ll try and buck up.

Suddenly was engendered a multi-coloured shorn head, on powerful shoulders, rising out of a sea of blue. The creative experience. I have been fortunate enough to experience such magic many times since then. It is categorised in every case as follows: a build up of some kind of mental turmoil, great frustration, impatience and inner anguish. Then becomes the image, as much a surprise to this seeing eye as anybody that sees it. Herein the success of it. Images you haven’t seen before, but having seen them, seem as if they should always have been. The mind boggles.

If our Norah, my mother, who is eighty five were present, when you are listening to this she’d say,

Oh do you know that Mr. Hawking is a lovely man, so patient int he Michael. Michael ask him if he can play chess. I’ll get you a cup of tea and a sandwich. Mm...

It was at that point, half eight in the morning, I were jiggered, so I went to bed. It’s now twelve o’clock, I’ve just looked outside the back door, it’s absolutely sileing down. Raining dogs and cats, in fact I think three of em’s run in here, would you believe it. My friend Deborah has called, as usual, dispensing peace and tranquillity.

Dave I’m off to f-ing park, are you coming

No Deborah I must get this finished

You lazy, idle git

The outwardly facile draughtsman, I have shunned, I am still vergo intacto. In the light of experience I believe such a discipline would for me have been an interference in the process. False starts there may be, but once the fixation occurs, the concentration seems fairly absolute, with no effort, lock on is total. Then, and only then, does appear that which is a stranger to both you and I, it is then simply a matter of qualifying that which has exteriorised. Generally it just seems to appear of its own free will. Finally it is very difficult to disengage from the work, often continuing, sometimes even painting another picture. I suppose you only need paint one picture, or write one poem. Eventually letting go, but knowing you have paid in some way you are unaware of, paid dearly for the experience, in a currency of which you know not the value, hence how much you have to spend.

I began to understand that what occurred was a struggle of sorts, often ferocious, I don’t want to intentionally introduce anything which might mislead you. You have shown me a great courtesy by reading thus far. My words are my truth. The lead up to the conflict, part of what happens, fills me with apprehension, dread even. I think it is the intensity and integrity of commitment and effort I know is necessary. It is pushing a large snowball up a hill blind fold, you only know you are at the summit as it goes away from you. You may not know who or what is arriving until the train pulls in, then you know

Dave, it’s just inspiration, all creative people get it

The question is, what is it.

In 1990 following five years of inner turmoil, during which I didn’t experience that magic process at all. Fifteen months ago I met one, a language assistant teacher at Wakefield College, in England for nine months sabbatical from the University of Aachen. We formed a close friendship, she stimulated my mind wonderfully, at last I had somebody that I could talk to. Perhaps the following may illustrate the totality of my mental isolation, cos apart from this, and speaking to Ursula, I never really spoke in or around this subject to anyone. The odd conversation with my brother, otherwise it’s only been explored whilst painting, in painting. Anyway, I said to her, I said ‘Ursula, where have you been all mi life. I have waited fifty six years for you to make your entrance.’ Before leaving England she encouraged me to write down whatever I wanted to communicate, this I could include when sending her a letter. I had previously written very little, apart from the odd letter and a few poems, I wrote in 1967-69, herein early evidence of a quest. About the fifth letter I wrote to Ursula, I did in the usual way, as the letter progressed I realised what had happened, the painting experience was being replicated. It had simply transferred to writing, as was usual, preceded in this case by more inner turmoil than ever before. The paintings created in the singular way I have described, the audio tape, and written work is my first sound painting in mime, and was, for me the key to explain these images.

I don’t wonder I get confused, neighbours are in and out like blue arsed flies.

Why do you like painting then Dave

Well it’s where mind and matter overlap

Is it

What I think happened, every time a painting evolved in that particular way, is that it has repeatedly been asking the same question, this sound painting is the answer. When I was writing, I did so quickly, in my usual untidy, hard to decipher scrawl. Over seventy pages without pause. It was like taking down dictation, the principle, enunciated, written down complete, out of the blue, the mending of a broken circle. The culmination of ruminations over all those years, which couldn’t have ripened earlier.

In the latter part of the letter, your name came into my mind regularly, with increasing confidence and insistence.

Mother, our David’s hearing voices

Oh that’s nice, he’s got someone to talk to at last

The process described, is more or less the same each time, image or images evolving in what seems to be an abstracted fashion, seemingly impersonal, isolated from other image making means. Any exhumed residue is the proving of the alchemy of that process.

Having heard the accompanying tapes, and had chance to ponder, it maybe that the door that I have passed through, is in your judgement perceived as an illusion, then so be it. I can only offer you the fruits of my labour as an indication of my total sincerity and genuine response to all this. I know your workload must be a very heavy burden, I am very loathe to add to it, but I have felt under great time constraint to get this off to you. I can’t understand why that should be. Apart from my friend in Germany, you are the only person I have tried to contact in respect of this.

I don’t believe certain coincidental phenomena occurs in isolation. Maybe when the wheat is sorted from the chaff, you may make certain connections. Please so that I can rest easy, give this work the once over. The nearer it is to finishing, the happier, more peaceful I will feel. I hope you’re not saying the same thing.

Perhaps what seems to me a self evident truth, is just that, if I am misguided, it isn’t for lack of effort

It’s the way, you tell em Dave

It’s strange also, I felt I had to send it in complete form, with all its imperfections, knowing the demands I am placing on you, and your various commitments. The tapes themselves, I think you’ll enjoy. I would also have sent written copy, but apart from my sister-in-law, who was going to do it, she has two young children and it would have taken ages. Remember I feel a sense of urgency and will do so until this particular hologram is passed on. My friend Ursula is fully appraised of what I am doing, that I must send it to you and is in agreement with this.

I’ve just been in kitchen, had another moment of satori, it must be all the pots I usually have to wash up.

It must mean that I’ve been a messenger, a messenger boy all this time. I wish I’d known, ee, what a humbling experience, hm it’s all serendipity.

It’s 10.35 pm at night, and I’m still at it. Thank god I’m near end

He’ll have to get of Mr. Hawking, he’s got some more dragons to slay, haven’t yeh Dave

As Ken Keasy said, when he were Jack Nicholson, at least I’ve tried.

Again Stephen my most heartfelt appreciation, thank you for listening. Unless you decide otherwise, I will not contact you again, for any reason. Should anyone else be privy to the letter, I ask once again that you kindly bring it to Mr. Hawking’s notice. The other tapes contain my sound painting. They are written and recorded in a simplistic and freer manner, but with absolute honesty as far as I am concerned. It was during the writing of the letter that I suddenly gained insight into the process that I have previously described, about which I have made these tapes. The instantaneous realisation and great sense of knowing seems to have left me in some way changed, an inner peace, perhaps it may reveal from its different perspective another way of looking at something. The reason for my excitement and compulsion to tell you is simple enough. It is as follows: in answer to the question, what is matter

Well you see, you might as well have asked me. What is mind, it doesn’t matter. What is matter never mind

Thank you, Bertrand Russell, will you step down please. Aye Mr. Russell stop fighting, somebody restrain him

I’m sorry, I’m sorry about that. Now Sir on behalf of Wakefield Pensioners Forum, I’ll ask you the same question, what is matter

Matter is the means by which mind proves itself, they are indivisible. Because we too are at one with this principle, we should understand how this is achieved, this I have called the Imaginative, Imitative, Need Imperative.

autobiography

In 1996, the Yorkshire-based Denison began writing a letter to the famous scientist and author of ‘A Brief History of Time’, Stephen Hawkins.

"Sir," it begins. "In presuming to write to as learned a gentleman as yourself, I am cognisant of the time constraints placed upon you by your work and other commitments...."

By page five, however, we’ve reached the following:

"Having been present at three hangings in my prison work and given mouth to mouth resucitation in training on numerous occasions, only once in F Wing Med Obs Brixton was I successful. This way to suck-cess. One summer afternoon all those on observation were, as it were, banged up on F3 landing. Along with other staff I'd been to the mess, made a good tea of sardines on toast, had me seven slices of bread an jam, pinta milk. Returned by the clock to the rock. Relieved colleagues for late tea break, 6pm. Two cleaners, allowed out over staff break periods.

"Boss, boss!"

This highly-skilled operative, me, sez:

"What the fuck’s up with him?"

"Boss, quick..."

Lithe and panther-quick up the stairs. Nosy cleaner had put down the observation hatch of a 19-year-old. Topped off with beddin sheets. "Farkin ell boss, is dead."

The wharramedics swung into action. Cut down or what, dunno.

"Get to it Dave, tha’s specialist at this sorta thing. See how tha frames thiself."

Four quick puffs. After checkin his gob was clear, on his back. Not breathing. Three or four watching, staff plus cleaners. Nobody volunteered to help. Encouragement though:

"Hey up George, get yourself up here. Dave’s sticking t‘lips on one’er cons"

"Fucking hell, let’s ‘ar look."

"Yer a fucking glutton, Denison, you will fuck owt."

He had no heartbeat……

Hawkins has yet to receive this letter, since it is still growing, and at the last count was well over 1,000 pages long, give or take the odd 24 hours-worth of unedited musings into a dictaphone. It’s an amorphous creature, cut any limb off and it would lumber forward regardless.

What Hawkins will finally make of it depends, to some extent, on how brief time turns out to be.

Why? What for? Well, only Dave seems to know.

The point, he asserts, concerns what he calls ‘The Imiginative Imitative Need Imperative’.

Mention the concept of editing and his eyes begin to narrow supsiciously behind the thick glass rims that have ensured he’s done no painting for the last decade or so.

As a compartively unknown artist, Dave Denison can boast some impressive credentials. Like being the only person Max Ernst wanted to meet on his last visit to the UK, and having had most of his major pieces snapped up by shrewd collectors, significantly the late Roland Penrose, mentor to anyone who has shaped 20th century art, including Picasso and Henry Moore.

Dave is self-taught, and spent the bulk of his working life in roles related in one capacity or another - largely medical - to the HM Prisons Service. Around 1977 he was invited by the Home Office to have a one man show in London to coincide with the "Arthur Koestler Awards" for creative work by inmates in the Prison Sytem, and sponsored by the eminent writer. There he met Arthur Koestler who's interest in his work was further encouragement.

Richard Seddon art critic of the Yorkshire Post remarked in an early review that the only conceivable obstacle in Dave’s path towards serious esteem was that much of his work was of a similar size, he failed to understand that most of the paintings were being executed on A 3 size canvases in the filing cabinet in the Medical Room at the Prison Officers Training School where he was stationed as the Hospital Officer and First Aid Instructor living on the premises.

"....Denison’s voluntary enclosure in the walls (sic) of HM Prisons has provided him with the isolation necessary to the development of his fantasy,"

Roland Penrose wrote in 1980. "The terrors that have surrounded him for years are not the menacing howlings of famished beasts, but rather the sullen angry voices of men hungry for their liberty. Denison has found unexpectedly in his choice of suroundings, usually considered as hopelessly inappropriate for an artist, his own ladder of escape, of which each rung is formed by the tension created by the crime and punishment that has been the cause of the assemblage of his companions."

This does little to convey the reality of being surrounded by cages with all those keys, the smells of disinfectant and bodily waste, the gallows humour, the cold huff of the yard and the endless hours immobile on bunks, the first squalid, botched suicide, syringes in private parts….

When pressed, Dave has plenty of stories. Wakefield Prison, let’s remember, has housed most of those capable of the extremes of horror which have shaped the last 50 years since World War 2 - bombers, mafisoi, psychos, rippers, panthers, foxes and the rest.

One of Dave’s charges was Archibald Hall, ‘The Butler’, an opportunist mass murderer with impeccable manners who made the news every night for months in the late 70s until the BBC sudenly realised it was probably impossible for someone to be on their 299th day of hunger strike.

These kind of things could warp your vision....

Dave’s paintings sometimes aren’t as easy to like as they are to admire, particularly now. They're both pre-PC and pre-the neutral, media-friendly gloss which has shaped much UK art in the last 20 years. In addition, his exteriors are all composed of interiors somehow: faces of gristle and bone and organs. The heart on his sleeve would be trailing gore and severed entrails.

In terms of attention to detail and mastery of the traditional mediums though, he’s on a par with anyone you might care to name.

In an excitable piece in the Sunday Times in June 1977, the art critic and Slade professor Lawrence Gowig came closest to capturing the essence of Dave’s work.

"His imagining has a sardonic poetry of its own," he said. "His Study of a Head, for example, builds spectacles and dentures into the structure of the skull. Each eye-socket contains minutely glittering machinery like a watch. Denison is great on eyes. In another picture, a bushy insect likeness of himself sits down to make a meal of a pair of eyeballs.

"A reflective painter will often discern something cannibal in the way an artist consumes his experience and himself, but here, the arched eyebrows and the clownlike red nose have the look of a Prime Minister of Mirth. The hilarity resides in the fantastic human mix - the very combination of ebullience and decrepitude that you can recognise in any pension queue. It is the living flesh of our time, shabbily facetious and libidinous, but decayed and dependent on spare parts.

"In a year or two," Gowing concludes, "Denison will be famous and we shall wonder how we managed to neglect him."

Another critic, John Hewitt, went further.

"I believe this Wakefield prison officer and self-taught painter is probably the most brilliant artist produced in Yorkshire since David Hockney," he said.
But that was in 1977, and Dave’s last major exhibition was in 1984.
So what happened?
Well, needless to say, there’s been a lot of alcohol under the bridge since then. It’s a familiar story. Working class lad with an unnatural talent and the world at his feet can only find what he really needs at the bottom of a glass.
A combination of the booze, the prison and a turbulent personal life threatened to tip Dave over the edge at one stage.
But that’s history too, now. Pensioned out of the prison service, he’s got the drinking moderately under control. Most of his paintings are in private collections, and I suppose he’s resigned to the fact that the major retrospective will only happen once he pops his clogs. It will probably be later than they think.
Meanwhile, there's that small matter of the 1,000+ page letter to Stephen Hawking.....
Extract from page 90:
Energy of life and energy of death discarded as waste or changed energy, what is happening? You, as I, are a part of a reality which proceeds from ignorance to enlightenment, it is a series of rationalisations by the living conscious intelligence as expressed as the Imaginative Imitative Need Imperative.

"I believe this Wakefield Prison Officer and self-taught painter is probably the most brilliant artist produced in Yorkshire since David Hockney."

John Hewitt

Art Critic Bradford Telegraph and Argus 11 July 1977



"He has learned an astonishing skill of a highly personal kind. He is a natural surrealist.

At 37 this remarkable painter is still little known, but Sir Roland Penrose reports that when Max Ernst came to England it was Denison that he wanted to hear about.

In a year or two, Denison will be famous and we shall wonder how we managed to neglect him."

Lawrence Gowing (Slade Professor of Fine Art) Sunday Times Colour Supplement. 27 July 1977



"Given his technical skill, the images pack a disturbing punch that reveals the inner world of the Freudian unconscious. They occupy the same art chanel as those of Salvador Dali but their capacity to repel as images and attract as beauti- ful colours and painting make Dali seem merely jolly fun in comparison."

London Galleries

Richard Seddon Yorkshire Post. October 1977



"These images stem strongly from his constantly reflective and questioning intellectual life, they come without artifice or contrivance. They take realism where neither sketchbook nor camera can enquire and he manages to treat the most extraordinary events as communicable, intelligibla experience containing within the rational cloak of painting the most startling deviant behaviour."

ART REVIEW

The Human Face of Surrealism Paintings by David Denison Cartwright Hall, Bradford.

"Prison Officer David Denison is a direct descendant of the long line of inventive surrealists wending back to Hieronymous Bosch and Arcimboldli, and is one of the most promising artists the North has thrown up in recent years. Promising is unfair. He is already producins works of jnngling power. Obssively he turns to the glistening fascination of internal organs Which might be pearls, and the olive green of decay. Heads dissolve into skulls; faces contain a myriad of other faces.

A self-taught artist, he finds himself outside the mainstream aesthetic of modern art. The roots for his inspiration lie in his appreciation of mortality and an acute consciousness of the darkness in the world. Though, in other hnnds, the subject matter would be unalloyed horror, Denison's paintines have a quality which enables the viewer to revel in their juicy vitality.

"Where are the good painters of the 1970s In quite surprising places, very likely. One of them is in a West Yorkshire school for prison officers (of whom he is one) giving classes in first-aid. David Denison, who has a current exhibition at Ilkley Manor House, Yorkshire, is almost entirely self-taught. As a result he has learned an astonishing skill of a highly personal kind. He is a natural surrealist - a breed that is commoner In England than in more rational countries, but is very rare even here

His imagining has a sardonic poetry of its own. His Study of a Head, for example (right), builds spectacles and dentures into a skull. Each eye socket contains minutely glittering machinery like a watch. Denison is great on eyes. In another picture, a bushy insect likeness of himself sits down to make a meal of a pair of eyeballs.

A reflective painter will often discern something cannibal in the way an artist consumes his experience and himself, but here the arched brows and the clown-like red nose have a look of a Prime minister of Mirth, The hilarity resides in the fantastic human mix - the very combination of ebullience and decreptitude that you can recognise in any pension queue. It is the living flesh of our time, shabbily facetious and libidinous but decayed and dependent on spare parts.

Other Denison pictures are more sombre, poetic, or horrendous. Even in their farthest extremity there is a often a quality of the real from which fantastic art is usually protected. One can sense that the painter is familiar with rigours and incongruites that are by no means imaginary. A first-aid officer sees violence and self-mutilation, and looks aggression and despair in the face - no painter can know better the constraints from which imagination is literally the only escape. Denisons best pictures have a quality of serious need. At 37 this remarkable painter is still little known, but Sir Roland Penrose reports that when Max Ernst came to England it was Denison that he wanted to hear about. In a year or two Denison will be famous and we shall wonder how we managed to neglect him.

David Denison's work will be on show at Ilkley Manor House Yorkshire until August 17. Lawrence Gowing

"...It turns out to be a donkey, a fearsome sight to a visitor from a planet without animals.

Perhaps ESP has been at work, for almost the same incident occurs in Arthur Clarke's Imperial Earth (Pan 75p) where Duncan, another moon- man, this time from Saturn's satellite Titan, visits the home- land of Terra, from which his ancestors had emigrated to con- quer new frontiers. He too has never seen an animal before, here a giant Percheron cart-horse.

A mild, gentle eye, which from this distance seemed about as large as a fist, looked straight at Duncan, who started to laugh a little hysterically as the ap-parition withdrew. . . .. Look at it from my point of view. I've just met my first Monster from Outer Space. Thank God, it was friendly."

The usual SF situations continue to be reversed with neat, mild wit as when Duncan cowers inwardly.at the thought that he might even be obliged to eat meat and is kept awake by the un- Titanly noises and, worse, smells of this weird place, at once primeval and decadent. Clarke is by no means a political innocent. As ever, he logically thinks out all the implications of his speculative fictions but his ' attitude remains Olympian..."

FOREWORD

'Into the Comet' and 'The Nine Billion Names of God' both involve computers and the troubles they may cause us. While writing this preface, I had occasion to call upon my own HP 9100A computer, Hal Junior, to answer an interesting question. Looking at my records, I find that I have now written just about one hundred short stories. This volume contains eighteen of them: therefore, how many possible 18-story collections will I be able to put together? The answer ­as I am sure will be instantly obvious to you - is 100 x 99. . . x 84 x 83 divided by 18 x 17 x 16 ... x .2 x 1. This is an impressive number - Hal Junior tells me that it is approximately 20,772,733,124,605,000,000.

The Nine Billion Names of God
'This is a slightly unusual request,' said Dr Wagner, with what he hoped was commendable restraint. 'As far as I know, it's the first time anyone's been asked to supply a Tibetan monastery with an Automatic Sequence Computer. I don't wish to be inquisitive, but I should hardly have thought that your - ah - establishment had much use for such a machine. Could you explain just what you intend to do with it?'
'Gladly,' replied the lama, readjusting his silk robes and carefully putting away the slide rule he had been using far currency conversions. 'Your Mark V Computer can carry out any routine mathematical operation involving up to ten digits. However, for our work we are interested in letters, not numbers. As we wish you to modify the output circuits, the machine will be printing words, not columns of figures.'
'I don't quite understand. . .'
'This is a project on which we have been working for the last three centuries - since the lamasery was founded, in fact. It is somewhat alien to your way of thought, so I hope you will listen with an open mind while I explain it.'
'Naturally.'
'It is really quite simple. We have been compiling a list which shall contain all the possible names of God.'
'I beg your pardon?'

Page16

'We have reason to believe,' continued the lama imperturbably, 'that all such names can be written with not more than nine letters in an alphabet we have devised.'
'And you have been doing this for three centuries?'
'Yes: we expected it would take us about fifteen thousand years to complete the task.'
'Oh,' Dr Wagner looked a little dazed. 'Now I see why you wanted to hire one of our machines. But what exactly is the purpose of this project?'
The lama hesitated for a fraction of a second, and Wagner wondered if he had offended him. If so, there was no trace of annoyance in the reply.
'Call it ritual, if you like, but it's a fundamental part of our belief. All the many names of the Supreme Being - God Jehova, Allah, and so on - they are only man-made labels. There is a philosophical problem of some difficulty here, which I do not propose to discuss, but somewhere among all the possible combinations of letters that can occur are what one may call the real names of God. By systematic permutation of letters, we have been trying to list them all.'
'I see. You've been starting at AAAAAAA . . . and working up to ZZZZZZZZ . . .'
'Exactly - though we use a special alphabet of our own. Modifying the electromatic typewriters to deal with this is, of course, trivial. A rather more interesting problem is that of devising suitable circuits to eliminate ridiculous combinations. For example, no letter must occur more than three times in succession.'
,'Three? Surely you mean two.'
'Three is correct: I am afraid it would take too long to explain why, even if you understood our language.' "

"Pickett's fingers danced over the beads, sliding them up and down the wires with lightning speed. There were twelve wires in all, so that the abacus could handle numbers up to 999,999,999,999 - or could be divided into separate sections where several independent calculations could be carried out simultaneously.
'374072,' said Pickett, after an incredibly brief interval of time. 'Now see how long you take to do it, with pencil and paper.'
There was a much longer delay before Martens, who like most mathematicians was poor at arithmetic, called out '375072'. A hasty check soon confirmed that Martens had taken at least three times as long as Pickett to arrive at the wrong answer.
The atronomer's face was a study in mingled chagrin, astonishment, and curiosity.
'Where did you learn that trick?' he asked. 'I thought those things could only add and subtract.'
'Well - multiplication's only repeated addition, isn't it? All I did was to add 856 seven times in the unit column, three times in the tens column, and four times in the hundreds column. You do the same thing when you use pencil and paper. Of course, there are some short cuts, but if you think I'm fast, you should have seen my grand-uncle. He used to work in a Yokohama bank, and you couldn't see his fingers / Page 69 / when he was going at speed"

"We live in a universe of patterns. Every night the stars move in circles across the sky. The seasons cycle at yearly inter vals. No two snowflakes are ever exactly the same, but the all have sixfold symmetry. Tigers and zebras are covered in patterns of stripes; leopards and hyenas are covered in pat terns of spots. Intricate trains of waves march across the oceans; very similar trains of sand dunes march across the desert . . . By using mathematics... we have discovered great secret: nature's patterns are not just there to be admired, they are vital clues to the rules that govern natural processes."

"Had not the normal, since time was, lived on the achievements of the abnormal? Men consciously and voluntarily descended into disease and madness, in search of knowledge which, acquired by fanaticism, would lead back to health; after the possession and use of it had ceased to be conditioned by that heroic and abnormal act of sacrifice. That was the true death on the cross, the true Atonement.

 

AND THIS BY A FRIEND ADA WILSON FOR THE YORKSHIRE ARTS ASSOCIATION WEB SITE.

In 1996, the Yorkshire-based Denison began writing a letter to the famous scientist and author of ‘A Brief History of Time’, Stephen Hawkins.

"Sir," it begins. "In presuming to write to as learned a gentleman as yourself, I am cognisant of the time constraints placed upon you by your work and other commitments...."

By page five, however, we’ve reached the following:

"Having given mouth to mouth resucitation on numerous occasions, only once in F Wing Med Obs Brixton was I successful. This way to suck-cess. One summer afternoon all those on observation were, as it were, banged up. F3 landing. Along with other staff I'd been to the mess, made a good tea of sardines on toast, had me seven slices of bread an jam, pinta milk. Returned by the clock to the rock. Relieved colleagues for late tea break, 6pm. Two cleaners, allowed out over staff break periods.

"Boss, boss!"

This highly-skilled operative, me, sez:

"What the fuck’s up with him?"

"Boss, quick..."

Lithe and panther-quick up the stairs. Nosy cleaner had put down the observation hatch of a 19-year-old. Topped off with beddin sheets. "Farkin ell boss, is dead."

The wharramedics swung into action. Cut down or what, dunno.

"Get to it Dave, tha’s specialist at this sorta thing. See how tha frames thiself."

Four quick puffs. After checkin his gob was clear, on his back. Not breathing. Three or four watching, staff plus cleaners. Nobody volunteered to help. Encouragement though:

"Hey up George, get yourself up here. Dave’s sticking t‘lips on one’er cons"

"Fucking hell, let’s ‘ar look."

"Yer a fucking glutton, Denison, you will fuck owt."

He had no heartbeat……

Hawkins has yet to receive this letter, since it is still growing, and at the last count was well over 1,000 pages long, give or take the odd 24 hours-worth of unedited musings into a dictaphone. It’s an amorphous creature, cut any limb off and it would lumber forward regardless.

What Hawkins will finally make of it depends, to some extent, on how brief time turns out to be.

Why? What for? Well, only Dave seems to know.

The point, he asserts, concerns what he calls ‘The Imiginative Imitative Need Imperative’.

Mention the concept of editing and his eyes begin to narrow supsiciously behind the thick glass rims that have ensured he’s done no painting for the last decade or so.

As a compartively unknown artist, Dave Denison can boast some impressive credentials. Like being the only person Max Ernst wanted to meet on his last visit to the UK, and having had most of his major pieces snapped up by shrewd collectors, significantly the late Roland Penrose, mentor to anyone who has shaped 20th century art, including Picasso and Henry Moore.

Dave is self-taught, and spent the bulk of his working life in roles related in one capacity or another - largely medical - to the HM Prisons Service. When the late Arthur Koestler remarked in an early review that the only conceivable obstacle in Dave’s path towards serious esteem was that much of his work was of a similar size, he failed to understand that most of the paintings were being executed on canvases stowed in the locker of a prison officer’s rest room.

"....Denison’s voluntary enclosure in the walls (sic) of HM Prisons has provided him with the isolation necessary to the development of his fantasy," Roland Penrose wrote in 1980. "The terrors that have surrounded him for years are not the menacing howlings of famished beasts, but rather the sullen angry voices of men hungry for their liberty. Denison has found unexpectedly in his choice of suroundings, usually considered as hopelessly inappropriate for an artist, his own ladder of escape, of which each rung is formed by the tension created by the crime and punishment that has been the cause of the assemblage of his companions."

This does little to convey the reality of being surrounded by cages with all those keys, the smells of disinfectant and bodily waste, the gallows humour, the cold huff of the yard and the endless hours immobile on bunks, the first squalid, botched suicide, syringes in private parts….

When pressed, Dave has plenty of stories. Wakefield Prison, let’s remember, has housed most of those capable of the extremes of horror which have shaped the last 50 years since World War 2 - bombers, mafisoi, psychos, rippers, panthers, foxes and the rest.

One of Dave’s stories was about Archibald Hall, ‘The Butler’, an opportunist mass murderer with impeccable manners who made the news every night for months in the late 70s until the BBC sudenly realised it was probably impossible for someone to be on their 299th day of hunger strike.

These kind of things could warp your vision....

Dave’s paintings sometimes aren’t as easy to like as they are to admire, particularly now. They're both pre-PC and pre-the neutral, media-friendly gloss which has shaped much UK art in the last 20 years. In addition, his exteriors are all composed of interiors somehow: faces of gristle and bone and organs. The heart on his sleeve would be trailing gore and severed entrails.

In terms of attention to detail and mastery of the traditional mediums though, he’s on a par with anyone you might care to name.

In an excitable piece in the Sunday Times in June 1977, the art critic and Slade professor Lawrence Gowig came closest to capturing the essence of Dave’s work.

"His imagining has a sardonic poetry of its own," he said. "His Study of a Head, for example, builds spectacles and dentures into the structure of the skull. Each eye-socket contains minutely glittering machinery like a watch. Denison is great on eyes. In another picture, a bushy insect likeness of himself sits down to make a meal of a pair of eyeballs.

"A reflective painter will often discern something cannibal in the way an artist consumes his experience and himself, but here, the arched eyebrows and the clownlike red nose have the look of a Prime Minister of Mirth. The hilarity resides in the fantastic human mix - the very combination of ebullience and decrepitude that you can recognise in any pension queue. It is the living flesh of our time, shabbily facetious and libidinous, but decayed and dependent on spare parts.

"In a year or two," Gowing concludes, "Dension will be famous and we shall wonder how we managed to neglect him."

Another critic, John Hewitt, went further.

"I believe this Wakefield prison officer and self-taught painter is probably the most brilliant artist produced in Yorkshire since David Hockney," he said.

But that was in 1977, and Dave’s last major exhibition was in 1984.

So what happened?

Well, needless to say, there’s been a lot of alcohol under the bridge since then. It’s a familiar story. Working class lad with an unnatural talent and the world at his feet can only find what he really needs at the bottom of a glass.

A combination of the booze, the prison and a turbulent personal life threatened to tip Dave over the edge at one stage.

But that’s history too, now. Pensioned out of the prison service, he’s got the drinking moderately under control. Most of his paintings are in private collections, and I suppose he’s resigned to the fact that the major retrospective will only happen once he pops his clogs. It will probably be later than they think.

Meanwhile, there's that small matter of the 1,000+ page letter to Stephen Hawking.....

Extract from page 90:

Energy of life and energy of death discarded as waste or changed energy, what is happening? You, as I, are a part of a reality which proceeds from ignorance to enlightenment, it is a series of rationalisations by the living conscious intelligence as expressed as the Imaginative Imitative Need Imperative.

"Jayson Duff"

Dave-

I give you my most sincere apologies about the tardiness in my reply. You see, unfortunately I am not in England at all, nor am I an Englishman, but rather an American living in a monastery in Tibet. Because of my living situation, I have access to a computer but once a month, when I am able to make the pilgrimage to mainland China and try to figure out the Cantonese keyboard. Not to mention having to sneak around Chinese internet security to send a message to England.

I can see you sitting near a cathedral, with your coffee and work, and I truly am disappointed that I can not share a proper chat with you. I have, actually, your website directory, compiled to manuscript format and printed out so that I may read during my leisure at the monastery.

I do not know Adrian Wilson personally, although I wish I did.

All this to say, keep up what you are doing. I have shown your work to my colleagues, and we are all reading and enjoying it here. We have many great correspondences of our own to record, but like your new paintings, they remain locked within the mind.

As I have taken an oath of ascetic life, I am afraid that I can not travel out to meet you, and that I will also not be able to email you for at least a year, as I am to live out in the wilderness for a while. I give you my deepest blessings, and wish you the best of luck, and feel free to email me anything you wish knowing that it will be read with great interest.

Dear Mr. Denison,

First of all, I am a great admirer of your work, and over the past months, I have been studying everything on 973-eht-numah-973. Not only that, but as a fellow painter, I find your paintings to be most inspiring. THANK YOU. I NO LONGER PAINT, BUT MAKE MANIFEST THE SIGHT WITHIN!

I send you this email to ask but a few questions:

-Will you ever publish or show your letter that you wrote/are writing to Stephen Hawking? I THINK THE TEXT IS SOMEWHERE ON THE SITE. IF NOT THE INTENTION IS TO MAKE AVAILABLE ALL THE CORRESPONDENCE TO DO WITH THIS SIGHT OF SITES. AND THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF WHICH MR HAWKINS LETTER WAS ONE.

I am very much eager to see its contents and have only been able to squeeze a few measly paragraphs out of Adrian Wilson. DO YOU KNOW ADA PERSONALLY?

-Can you tell me or publish any stories from your time spent as a prison officer? Again, I have only heard a little bit, specifically about Archibald Hall from Adrian Wilson, and would love to know more. PLENTY TO SAY JAYSON. BUT TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.

-Finally, I have noticed that your domain expires the 14th of August, and I would like to know if you will be renewing it? This is important to me most of all, so I know whether or not to try and print it all out beforehand in hopes of continuing my studies. JAYSON IT IS MOST IMPORTANT THAT THIS WORK IS A RESTATEMENT OF THE ANCIENT WISDOM. EXPRESSED AS AS PART OF THE GREAT WORK. OR ENLIGHTENMENT.

Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits, and
Are melted into air, into thin air:
And like the baseless fabric of this vision,
The cloud-capp'd tow'rs, the gorgeous palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve,
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on; and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.

autobiography

In 1996, the Yorkshire-based Denison began writing a letter to the famous scientist and author of ‘A Brief History of Time’, Stephen Hawkins.

"Sir," it begins. "In presuming to write to as learned a gentleman as yourself, I am cognisant of the time constraints placed upon you by your work and other commitments...."

By page five, however, we’ve reached the following:

"Having given mouth to mouth resucitation on numerous occasions, only once in F Wing Med Obs Brixton was I successful. This way to suck-cess. One summer afternoon all those on observation were, as it were, banged up. F3 landing. Along with other staff I'd been to the mess, made a good tea of sardines on toast, had me seven slices of bread an jam, pinta milk. Returned by the clock to the rock. Relieved colleagues for late tea break, 6pm. Two cleaners, allowed out over staff break periods.

"Boss, boss!"

This highly-skilled operative, me, sez:

"What the fuck’s up with him?"

"Boss, quick..."

Lithe and panther-quick up the stairs. Nosy cleaner had put down the observation hatch of a 19-year-old. Topped off with beddin sheets. "Farkin ell boss, is dead."

The wharramedics swung into action. Cut down or what, dunno.

"Get to it Dave, tha’s specialist at this sorta thing. See how tha frames thiself."

Four quick puffs. After checkin his gob was clear, on his back. Not breathing. Three or four watching, staff plus cleaners. Nobody volunteered to help. Encouragement though:

"Hey up George, get yourself up here. Dave’s sticking t‘lips on one’er cons"

"Fucking hell, let’s ‘ar look."

"Yer a fucking glutton, Denison, you will fuck owt."

He had no heartbeat……

Hawkins has yet to receive this letter, since it is still growing, and at the last count was well over 1,000 pages long, give or take the odd 24 hours-worth of unedited musings into a dictaphone. It’s an amorphous creature, cut any limb off and it would lumber forward regardless.

What Hawkins will finally make of it depends, to some extent, on how brief time turns out to be.

Why? What for? Well, only Dave seems to know.

The point, he asserts, concerns what he calls ‘The Imiginative Imitative Need Imperative’.

Mention the concept of editing and his eyes begin to narrow supsiciously behind the thick glass rims that have ensured he’s done no painting for the last decade or so.

As a compartively unknown artist, Dave Denison can boast some impressive credentials. Like being the only person Max Ernst wanted to meet on his last visit to the UK, and having had most of his major pieces snapped up by shrewd collectors, significantly the late Roland Penrose, mentor to anyone who has shaped 20th century art, including Picasso and Henry Moore.

Dave is self-taught, and spent the bulk of his working life in roles related in one capacity or another - largely medical - to the HM Prisons Service. When the late Arthur Koestler remarked in an early review that the only conceivable obstacle in Dave’s path towards serious esteem was that much of his work was of a similar size, he failed to understand that most of the paintings were being executed on canvases stowed in the locker of a prison officer’s rest room.

"....Denison’s voluntary enclosure in the walls (sic) of HM Prisons has provided him with the isolation necessary to the development of his fantasy," Roland Penrose wrote in 1980. "The terrors that have surrounded him for years are not the menacing howlings of famished beasts, but rather the sullen angry voices of men hungry for their liberty. Denison has found unexpectedly in his choice of suroundings, usually considered as hopelessly inappropriate for an artist, his own ladder of escape, of which each rung is formed by the tension created by the crime and punishment that has been the cause of the assemblage of his companions."

This does little to convey the reality of being surrounded by cages with all those keys, the smells of disinfectant and bodily waste, the gallows humour, the cold huff of the yard and the endless hours immobile on bunks, the first squalid, botched suicide, syringes in private parts….

When pressed, Dave has plenty of stories. Wakefield Prison, let’s remember, has housed most of those capable of the extremes of horror which have shaped the last 50 years since World War 2 - bombers, mafisoi, psychos, rippers, panthers, foxes and the rest.

Dave’s favourite was Archibald Hall, ‘The Butler’, an opportunist mass murderer with impeccable manners who made the news every night for months in the late 70s until the BBC sudenly realised it was probably impossible for someone to be on their 299th day of hunger strike.

These kind of things could warp your vision....

Dave’s paintings sometimes aren’t as easy to like as they are to admire, particularly now. They're both pre-PC and pre-the neutral, media-friendly gloss which has shaped much UK art in the last 20 years. In addition, his exteriors are all composed of interiors somehow: faces of gristle and bone and organs. The heart on his sleeve would be trailing gore and severed entrails.

In terms of attention to detail and mastery of the traditional mediums though, he’s on a par with anyone you might care to name.

In an excitable piece in the Sunday Times in June 1977, the art critic and Slade professor Lawrence Gowig came closest to capturing the essence of Dave’s work.

"His imagining has a sardonic poetry of its own," he said. "His Study of a Head, for example, builds spectacles and dentures into the structure of the skull. Each eye-socket contains minutely glittering machinery like a watch. Denison is great on eyes. In another picture, a bushy insect likeness of himself sits down to make a meal of a pair of eyeballs.

"A reflective painter will often discern something cannibal in the way an artist consumes his experience and himself, but here, the arched eyebrows and the clownlike red nose have the look of a Prime Minister of Mirth. The hilarity resides in the fantastic human mix - the very combination of ebullience and decrepitude that you can recognise in any pension queue. It is the living flesh of our time, shabbily facetious and libidinous, but decayed and dependent on spare parts.

"In a year or two," Gowing concludes, "Dension will be famous and we shall wonder how we managed to neglect him."

Another critic, John Hewitt, went further.

"I believe this Wakefield prison officer and self-taught painter is probably the most brilliant artist produced in Yorkshire since David Hockney," he said.

But that was in 1977, and Dave’s last major exhibition was at the ICA in 1984.

So what happened?

Well, needless to say, there’s been a lot of alcohol under the bridge since then. It’s a familiar story. Working class lad with an unnatural talent and the world at his feet can only find what he really needs at the bottom of a glass.

A combination of the booze, the prison and a turbulent personal life threatened to tip Dave over the edge at one stage.

But that’s history too, now. Pensioned out of the prison service, he’s got the drinking moderately under control. Most of his paintings are in private collections, and I suppose he’s resigned to the fact that the major retrospective will only happen once he pops his clogs. It will probably be later than they think.

Meanwhile, there's that small matter of the 1,000+ page letter to Stephen Hawking.....

Extract from page 90:

Energy of life and energy of death discarded as waste or changed energy, what is happening? You, as I, are a part of a reality which proceeds from ignorance to enlightenment, it is a series of rationalisations by the living conscious intelligence as expressed as the Imaginative Imitative Need Imperative.

Hawkin1. Doc

Dear Steven Hawking,

Hello Sir
Sharp intake of breath, thinks
Oh no not another crank
Hm, be that as it may, this is the most important letter I’ve ever written. You are I know an eminent thinker and your time is precious. I apologise most humbly for trespassing on your life in this way and hope you eventually consider your time to have been well spent. In some small measure I can thank you by giving you images of my work. I hope you like them.

I have just stopped for my umpteenth coffee
Dave gerron wi it, were not interested, you’ve only just started

Reight then. The page I have included, which contains comments on my work and a brief history. I include not to impress, but to assure you of my utmost sincerity, and the veracity of this letter. It serves also to illustrate direction and continuity, in my quest for some understanding of the nature of things, of the human condition. In that Steve we are kith and kin. I hope it gives you some idea about me, that I am not a disembodied voice, a ghost writer. Everyone is a stranger to some one, somewhere, friends are first strangers. I know that you are a seeker like me, looking for answers to the seeming enigma of existence.

I have spent a great deal of my life in institutions of one kind or another, serving three years in the Air Force 1958-61. I am fifty six years old, retired from the Prison Service, for whom I had apparently worked twenty eight years. For eighteen of those years, amazingly, I was able to paint whilst at work. I was a prison hospital officer and the jobs that I did over that period of time, were positions fairly carefree, and with virtual total autonomy.

I hope this is not a total ball ache for you Steve but honest injun, I am to pardon the pun, trying to put you in the picture, this biographical ephemera might help. Whilst in the RAF in 1958, I started copying old master drawings. Then in 1963 I started to paint and have done so until the last few years, during which I have travelled pretty extensively. I was married briefly, I have three grown up kids, one son, two daughters. I have lived on my own nearly all my adult life. For a few months I have had two girls living with me, who have been working abroad and go back in February. I mention this because they are featured in the tapes. One of the girls was a personal friend who has a dog which I have looked after for eighteen months, the dog unfortunately has split into three, so I’ve now got three dogs from none.

For as long as I can remember, the koan bone I have worried has been

Ah sweet mystery of life
At last I’ve found you

We walk the same road, I was destined to walk it, thoughtfully, but thus far alone. Formal education for me finished at fifteen and may account for the somewhat idiosyncratic way I have of expressing myself, although I am trying to keep it ordered, so please bare with me.

Meanwhile back at the ranch.

Look abroad through natures range
Natures mighty law is changed

Thank you for that one dear Robbie
I started to paint in 1963, I had never done so before and cannot recall much of an interest whilst at school. I have never received any lessons, that I think was important. In 1966 I prepared the surface of a piece of hardboard and primed it with white emulsion paint. It was perhaps thirty six by thirty inches. This was maybe the seventh attempt at a painting, nothing much. After drawing a huge head, I simply divided it into segments, painted, thickly and quickly in different colours.

This is the situation, I was working at Wakefield Prison, working horrendous hours, hours that would have killed an hoss, overtime was totally compulsory and could be detailed at a moments notice. Personally I was frustrated, there were not many to whom I could talk. Staff, friends and inmates everywhere, and not a drop to think.

The painting. The frustration engendered by this simplistic image, I can recall feeling stumped and stymied, redundant in its presence. What am I trying to do anyway? So the pressure continued to build, as I chopped and changed, eventually the head was covered in numerous coats of paint. Something then happened which was rather wonderful. One day staring at the painting, a different state of consciousness took over. I attacked the geometrical precision of the image, physically with my bare fingers. Each succeeding coat of paint had dried at different rates. The one nearest the emulsion was the driest because of the unsealed capillary action of the hardboard, the paint had become very pliable, almost plasticine like. The technique depended on the pressure exerted by the finger nails, dragging across the surface, perhaps through four layers of paint in various stages of drying and it depended on that for its effect. Evocation Van Gough.

It is now 5.30 am in the morning, I’m sorry about my voice, it seems to be going, I’ll try and buck up.

Suddenly was engendered a multi-coloured shorn head, on powerful shoulders, rising out of a sea of blue. The creative experience. I have been fortunate enough to experience such magic many times since then. It is categorised in every case as follows: a build up of some kind of mental turmoil, great frustration, impatience and inner anguish. Then becomes the image, as much a surprise to this seeing eye as anybody that sees it. Herein the success of it. Images you haven’t seen before, but having seen them, seem as if they should always have been. The mind boggles.

If our Norah, my mother, who is eighty five were present, when you are listening to this she’d say,
Oh do you know that Mr. Hawking is a lovely man, so patient int he Michael. Michael ask him if he can play chess. I’ll get you a cup of tea and a sandwich. Mm

It was at that point, half eight in the morning, I were jiggered, so I went to bed. It’s now twelve o’clock, I’ve just looked outside the back door, it’s absolutely sileing down. Raining dogs and cats, in fact I think three of em’s run in here, would you believe it. My friend Deborah has called, as usual, dispensing peace and tranquillity.

Dave I’m off to f-ing park, are you coming
No Deborah I must get this finished
You lazy, idle git

The outwardly facile draughtsman, I have shunned, I am still vergo intacto. In the light of experience I believe such a discipline would for me have been an interference in the process. False starts there may be, but once the fixation occurs, the concentration seems fairly absolute, with no effort, lock on is total. Then, and only then, does appear that which is a stranger to both you and I, it is then simply a matter of qualifying that which has exteriorised. Generally it just seems to appear of its own free will. Finally it is very difficult to disengage from the work, often continuing, sometimes even painting another picture. I suppose you only need paint one picture, or write one poem. Eventually letting go, but knowing you have paid in some way you are unaware of, paid dearly for the experience, in a currency of which you know not the value, hence how much you have to spend.

I began to understand that what occurred was a struggle of sorts, often ferocious, I don’t want to intentionally introduce anything which might mislead you. You have shown me a great courtesy by reading thus far. My words are my truth. The lead up to the conflict, part of what happens, fills me with apprehension, dread even. I think it is the intensity and integrity of commitment and effort I know is necessary. It is pushing a large snowball up a hill blind fold, you only know you are at the summit as it goes away from you. You may not know who or what is arriving until the train pulls in, then you know

Dave, it’s just inspiration, all creative people get it

The question is, what is it.

In 1990 following five years of inner turmoil, during which I didn’t experience that magic process at all. Fifteen months ago I met one Ursula Nobis, a language assistant teacher at Wakefield College, in England for nine months sabbatical from the University of Aachen. We formed a close friendship, she stimulated my mind wonderfully, at last I had somebody that I could talk to. Perhaps the following may illustrate the totality of my mental isolation, cos apart from this, and speaking to Ursula, I never really spoke in or around this subject to anyone. The odd conversation with my brother, otherwise it’s only been explored whilst painting, in painting. Anyway, I said to her, I said ‘Ursula, where have you been all mi life. I have waited fifty six years for you to make your entrance.’ Before leaving England she encouraged me to write down whatever I wanted to communicate, this I could include when sending her a letter. I had previously written very little, apart from the odd letter and a few poems, I wrote in 1967-69, herein early evidence of a quest. About the fifth letter I wrote to Ursula, I did in the usual way, as the letter progressed I realised what had happened, the painting experience was being replicated. It had simply transferred to writing, as was usual, preceded in this case by more inner turmoil than ever before. The paintings created in the singular way I have described, the audio tape, and written work is my first sound painting in mime, and was, for me the key to explain these images.

I don’t wonder I get confused, neighbours are in and out like blue arsed flies.

Why do you like painting then Dave
Well it’s where mind and matter overlap
Is it
What I think happened, every time a painting evolved in that particular way, is that it has repeatedly been asking the same question, this sound painting is the answer. When I was writing, I did so quickly, in my usual untidy, hard to decipher scrawl. Over seventy pages without pause. It was like taking down dictation, the principle, enunciated, written down complete, out of the blue, the mending of a broken circle. The culmination of ruminations over all those years, which couldn’t have ripened earlier.

In the latter part of the letter, your name came into my mind regularly, with increasing confidence and insistence.

Mother, our David’s hearing voices
Oh that’s nice, he’s got someone to talk to at last

The process described, is more or less the same each time, image or images evolving in what seems to be an abstracted fashion, seemingly impersonal, isolated from other image making means. Any exhumed residue is the proving of the alchemy of that process.

Having heard the accompanying tapes, and had chance to ponder, it maybe that the door that I have passed through, is in your judgement perceived as an illusion, then so be it. I can only offer you the fruits of my labour as an indication of my total sincerity and genuine response to all this. I know your workload must be a very heavy burden, I am very loathe to add to it, but I have felt under great time constraint to get this off to you. I can’t understand why that should be. Apart from my friend in Germany, up to now, you are the only person I have tried to contact in respect of this.

I don’t believe certain coincidental phenomena occurs in isolation. Maybe when the wheat is sorted from the chaff, you may make certain connections. Please so that I can rest easy, give this work the once over. The nearer it is to finishing, the happier, more peaceful I will feel. I hope you’re not saying the same thing.

Perhaps what seems to me a self evident truth, is just that, if I am misguided, it isn’t for lack of effort
It’s the way, you tell em Dave
It’s strange also, I felt I had to send it in complete form, with all its imperfections, knowing the demands I am placing on you, and your various commitments. The tapes themselves, I think you’ll enjoy. I would also have sent written copy, but apart from my sister-in-law, who was going to do it, she has two young children and it would have taken ages. Remember I feel a sense of urgency and will do so until this particular hologram is passed on. My friend Ursula is fully appraised of what I am doing, that I must send it to you and is in agreement with this.

I’ve just been in kitchen, had another moment of satori, it must be all the pots I usually have to wash up.
It must mean that I’ve been a messenger, a messenger boy all this time. I wish I’d known, ee, what a humbling experience, hm it’s all serendipity.

It’s 10.35 pm at night, and I’m still at it. Thank god I’m near end
He’ll have to get of Mr. Hawking, he’s got some more dragons to slay, haven’t yeh Dave
As Ken Keasy said, when he were Jack Nicholson, at least I’ve tried.

Again Stephen my most heartfelt appreciation, thank you for listening. Unless you decide otherwise, I will not contact you again, for any reason. Should anyone else be privy to the letter, I ask once again that you kindly bring it to Mr. Hawking’s notice. The other tapes contain my sound painting. They are written and recorded in a simplistic and freer manner, but with absolute honesty as far as I am concerned. It was during the writing of the letter that I suddenly gained insight into the process that I have previously described, about which I have made these tapes. The instantaneous realisation and great sense of knowing seems to have left me in some way changed, an inner peace, perhaps it may reveal from its different perspective another way of looking at something. The reason for my excitement and compulsion to tell you is simple enough. It is as follows: in answer to the question, what is matter
Well you see, you might as well have asked me. What is mind, it doesn’t matter. What is matter never mind
Thank you, Bertrand Russell, will you step down please. Aye Mr. Russell stop fighting, somebody restrain him
I’m sorry, I’m sorry about that. Now Sir on behalf of Wakefield Pensioners Forum, I’ll ask you the same question, what is matter
Matter is the means by which mind proves itself, they are indivisible. Because we too are at one with this principle, we should understand how this is achieved, this I have called the Imaginative, Imitative, Need Imperative.


MERLIN THE MASTER SHAMAN 1969

Nilrem. The Shaman. Magician Extrodinaire.
Behold the skin
A frown past o’er the royal, loyal, sun kings sun’s face
Oh beam, sun beam
With kind old eyes, that watered meekly, bleekly, and weakly, in the sun
He sulked, and skulked behind dark clouds
Until of reigning in the rain, he’d had enough
His royal dignity was there for all to see
A smile was summoned, ordered, pass by me
And then, as if by will intended
In him the sun, a rainbow thought engendered
This shimmering coronet, of rainbow tears
This hovering, irridescent, quick silvered, dragon fly

The quintessential moment, time suspended

Then time restarted, a little late
A second perhaps, or maybe even two
The basking sun, basked on
The officer in custom pink, pulled through
This newly painted image of the mind
With entrance unannounced, it longed to make
To execute a bow, or maybe even two
He watched, entranced, transfixed
Merlin, the Master Shaman
Sole sorcerer, to Arthur once a king
This master of illusion with a wink
Directly to the eye, of he in pink
Gave lie to his existence

The crusty conjurer
A card sharp, card carrying member he
Would turn a trick, for pensioners and young kids
At half the price, but only half the tricks
His magic now a tawdry dull affair
Nights at Camelot, now too long gone
None, now have faith in magic anymore
He paused, he thought, he knew
I’m half the man, of half the man, I was before
Merlin, the man of tattered habits
The master shaman, standing whisky still, stock still
Deep in thought

Master of illusion, man of tattered habits ruefully ruminated.
Where now old man, the wisdom that you sought.
His journey a pilgrimage, a seeking of the self.
There was always something strange about my magic.
The wisdom that he thought, he'd had, he'd never had before.
Wise wisdom lost at sea, drowned in a sea of knowledge.
His blind and gelded senses had masked the way intended.
New age thoughtful thinkers now were all the rage.
They'd seen it all, wonder of wonders and they would not wonder.
Their vices it suffices were sensory devices.
Their aim to transmute base metals into gold.
Sub atomic particles, articles of particles.
But pale reflections of the wizards skill.

He thrust a hand, in dirty habit clean
His many pocketed cloak, around thin shoulders draped

Without a glance, Merlin drew out, from within
The pocket, of his pock marked, many pocketed memory coat
His myriad, mirrored images, of glazed glassed eyes
A residue of demons, once his fiends
And cause now, only for a laugh
The shaman seer, a seance of the senses, would he make
Pull a trick, or maybe even two
Merlin, an incantation breathed

Slight silver spear, sliver of light
Sleight of hand, of mind, and sight

The august magi, belched twice
His plumbing turbulent
An island alone
Aloof, strange, silent
Reborn images appeared
Magic into image see
Magi the magic, blinks, thinks, winks
And pokes, sad embers of a dying brain
Light provoked, barely an echo
Of his once bright flame
He raised his hand, as if to bid adiue
His tired magic, look still works
A rag appeared, from out the air
It was old, and rough, and stained
In bleak despair, he turned to stare
And stare, and stare anew
Startled from his reverie, he rested
On the hard rock cafe, of his reality
The rag, meanwhile, had nested in his hand
He raised the mirror to his knees
And careful not to look
Gently began to wipe, and scrub
And scrub, and wipe, and rub
And rub, and rub, and rub
Lapsing again, into thoughtful mood mode
The busy bee of static, in his head, paused
Merlin, for that were he
Felt the creeping, stalking, numbness
Creeping, and stalking, stalking, and creeping
Within his brain, his skeletal brain
His skeletal, eletal brain
The anaesthetisation of his faculties
His memory, continued apace
Magic of a sort there
He thought, the illusion, of his illusion, was
Is
Was
Is
Was
Is
The delusion, of the illusion
This lay in mother sense
The womb of his creations
Herein the source of all his theatre
How skillfully, and clearly, cleverly, and dearly
Productions such as his, were hard to find
As long as the human race had existed
He had worn the rainment
Of his myriad names, with pride
He knew, this magus of magicians
That he, Merlin the magical
Sorcerer to kings
Was coming towards the end of his line
That he, confidence trickster of the senses
Working in many guises, and disguises, in many lands
Throughout all ages, the magician extrodinaire
Master of magic, trick, and illusion
Like his forebears, he knew all that had passed
And also of the future knew he too
This wizard of pantomine
This master of the five
Servants, ready to serve his every wish
I wish, I wish
When you wish upon a star
Oh how wonderful you are
The old magus, had continued all the while
Polishing his mirror
Without once glancing at it
When you wish upon a star
He ceased his task
The waning of his powers, coincided
As if by chance
By the knowledge, that had struck him
Like a lightening bolt of his own creation
Like a swift arrow of truth
Of sudden realization
Deep, in the heart, of the
Soft, full, fat, cheese, mollases of his brain
Its poisened tip of truth
Had dealt the self, a mortal blow
This central character in his own magic
Knew at last the truth of his magic
He, was part of the magic, of something else
Something much greater
Something, of which he was but a piece
A piece of a jigsaw
A grain of sand, on all the oceans of the world
All the ages of his creations, had been an odyssey
The stars he wondered at on an evening
Were the same stars
That all existing, within this magical reality
That they also, were marvelling at
His journey, a pilgrimage
A seeking of the self
He had asked many questions
Experienced many things
There was alway something strange
About my magic
The wisdom, that he thought he had
He’d never had before
Wise wisdom, lost at sea
Drowned, in a sea of knowledge
His blinded, gelded senses
Had masked the way intended
New age, thoughtful thinkers
Now the rage
They’d seen it all
Wonder of wonders
And they would not wonder
There vices it suffices
Were sensory devices
Their aim, to transmute base metals into gold
Sub atomic particles
Articles of particles
A techno-magic revolution
Changing, human evolution
Pale imitators, of the wizards craft
Suddenly, as was his custom
Offen in the past
A sunbeam thought
Impinged the polished mirror
Of his future past
And sped off into its own reality
In a wink of a blink
Thinking pink
The man that never was
With skin, that made the sun retreat in shame
Behind dull clouds
For fear of Mary Shellys skin
Merlin the magus
Spent his last trick
And he, who in error, terror paused
Became a pig-
A lily the pink pig
A fat, happy, joyful pig
This pig, happy, happy, as a pig in shit-
Merlin again ruefully ruminated
Those of today, those creating a great past
From a future yet to occur
They too still entangled
Hog tide and fixed
Fettered by the senses
A bigger magic
More powerful magic than his
None the less a magic
Which like his, had no basis in reality
This custom made, happy pig
Found a partner
Had lots of pigs
And lived, happy ever after
Merlin the magus
Raised, the mirror to his eyes
His old blind eyes
Eyes, he now realized, he had no need of
Looking at the mirror
He saw its early finery
Remembered, its beauteous clearness
He gave it the tenderist of wipes
As first he’d done
As at the dawn of human history
He’d practised his craft
From first aware of its perfection
It’s glorious perfection
And the clarity, clear, depth
Of the pool, of its sight
The pool, in which his senses had swum
For so long together
Before the corpreal nature, of his sight, caught the glass
He noticed, how old it had become
How tarnished, cracked and glazed, this glass
Finally, his eyes looked at the eyes
That were finally looking at him
Today Alice, did not look back
Saw, only throught the mist
A spectre, of an apparition, of a spectre
He sought, with fingers cold
To rub away, the cold, hot mist of his breath
Only for an instant did he see
That, that, far away
That, that, was me
For a split second he realized all
He knew, I know
Someone, something, somewhere
An illustrious magician, pulled another trick
And, had there been a mirror
Surely it would have cracked
From side to side

Dunblane massacre
13 March 1996
Description
The Dunblane massacre took place at Dunblane Primary School near Stirling, Scotland, on 13 March 1996, when Thomas Hamilton shot 16 children and one teacher dead and injured 15 others, before killing himself. It remains the deadliest mass shooting in British history.

Perpetrator: Thomas Hamilton

Location: Dunblane
Total number of deaths: 18 (including the perpetrator)

Attack types: School shooting, Mass murder, Murder–suicide

 

One and one is two,
Two and two are four,
Four and four are eight,
Eight and eight are sixteen,
Sixteen and two.

John Donne, Anne Donne, undone

Think of a number, think of a number,

Five,
Think of a number, think of a number,

Six.

Come with me, ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross,
See a fine lady on a white horse.
Does everyone love me like you mother?
Does everyone love me like you father?
Well Wilf, I have a question.
Was it for this the clay grew tall?
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.

When I got up this morning
I felt powerful, full of gods power.
This morning, for a few minutes
I thought I was god.
I wanted at last, to be recognised for what I am.
My life is barren.

Before I set off this morning
To do god's work
I sat in the chair
One, two, three, four
Looking at each one

One, two, three, four.
I stroked, and caressed each one.
Like my woman.
And yet they were hard and strong, virile, cold
The arbiter of death.
Sometimes, at such times, he visits me.
The man for whom I long.

My guilt, will not altogether fit.
Yet, you who scorned me,
Have invited me,
Into each of your family homes.
I will always be present,
At Anniversaries, at Christmas.
At times meant to be enjoyed,
I shall be there, you're unwelcome guest.
Happy Days.

There were seventeen green bottles, hanging on the wall,
Seventeen green bottles, hanging on the wall,
And if seventeen green bottles, should accidentally fall.
Then they'll be no green bottles, hanging on the wall.

Thomas please, I grow old, I grow old
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled
In the room, the women, men, children, grandfathers, grandmothers
Nieces and nephews, cousins and brothers, brothers and sisters
Uncles, and aunts, friends and relations, come and go
Talking, always talking, of those that are gone
All of you do not forget us
Thomas would you, with the children please
Together then
I remember
I remember
The house where I was born

Blow the wind southerly, southerly, southerly
Blow the wind southerly, my bonny to see

Their energy was such
They were always displacing themselves
Fractured, yet healing, thereby to be the stronger
Laughing with a happy laugh
This noise, their noise, with life abounds
Such laughing
If only we'd known
Such tears
If only we'd known
We would have counted each of your tears
You are our little people
Full growed at five and six
Full growed ye who cared for them

Yes Mary, ah Mary's got a joke. Come on now, let's all listen. Yes Mary, yes, listen
What did Mary Shelley say to Frankenstein
Go on
Oh, I love you to bits
Very good Mary, I'll bet you got that off your mum and dad. I don't think it's your own joke is it. Perhaps it is.

Come on now children, altogether

This old man, he played one
He played nic nak, on my drum
With a nic nak paddy wak, give a dog a bone
This old man comes rolling home

I checked my watch, it's almost time
God keep the barrel straight
Although tensed, although anguished within himself
He gave a nervous laugh
Atishoo, atishoo, all fall down

That morning, all the children had minded their P's and Q's
That morning, all had answered the register
Variously happy, and in piping voices
The Scottish pipers lament
The lament for young heroes
Old before their time
Facing the fear of all of us
Facing their fear together
Our teacher, our very own

And he, who took our lives

We are children, who forgive easily
Mother, and Father, your task is harder
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning, we shall remember them

There is but one child left
What mother and father, will claim this child
What sister, claim this brother
Where now the lover
Those of you, who pour contempt
Hell and damnation, upon my head
Here the slain, select one
That he become me

If you were the only girl in the world
And I was the only boy

It is afternoon, it is time again to take the toll, and yet this classroom is empty, not alas for the discerning eye. Therein happiness, therein love, therein hope, therein our lives.

Settle down then children, answer the register
Robert, Robert Burns
Not present. No one seen him
Mary, Mary Shelley
Not present
Sylvia Plath
Gone away
William Shakespeare
Not present
Leonardo, has no one seen Leonardo
Michael Angelo
Not present
Elizabeth I Regina
Not present
Has anyone seen her sister Mary, Mary Queen of Scots
No, not present
What about David. Anyone seen David, David Livingstone
No, not present
Mary, Mary Curie
Albert, Albert Einstein
Albert, Albert Schweitzer
Not present
Where are they all
What of Christ, and Buddha, Mohammed
Not present. Not present. Not present
What of George, the bakers boy
Not present
And Lucy in the sky
Gone away
What of Nicola, and Matthew world travellers
What of Romany. What of Tom, Dick, and Harry
Gone away, all gone away
But what of Peg, and sister Meg
Bess, and Tess, and Rodney too
Gone away, all gone away
And what of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John
Bless the bed that they lay on
One at their head, one at their feet
Two at their hearts
Their precious souls to keep

My children, dost thou know, that thy creator weeps today
In the beginning, is my end
And in the end, my beginning

When I died, did you hold me
As a child holds its doll mother
When I died, did you hold me
As you held your mother, father

What is thy name
My name, my name is death
My gift to plain Dunblane
Put not your curse upon me
If you cherish daughter life
You must love also her brother death

If I am called, if I am summoned
Then I have to comply
Understand I have to come
I came to do God's work

I also wept bitter tears
I have wept more tears than you
Bereaved, and beauteous souls
I am the teacher, these my children

Tell me brother death art thou evil

No my child, not so
I am at one with the creator
We are all of one blood, she and I
I am the great destroyer
She the great creator
Your children, are our children
When you were happy, we were happy
When you were sad, we were sad
Listen, for you too are our children.
We are but one
Everything is one
Know that the creative energy from which all spring, is indestructible
It is immortal
Your children's sacrifice is not in vain
Nor you my daughter, and you my son.
All that issue forth from me
They must return to me.
No life without death
No death without life.
The unchained cycle of change continues
They are not lost
You who listen
Or read these words are me
I am your mirror
They are not lost.

Mathemetician Gone Mad? -Eht Namuh

I discovered this today and itseriously is the most disturbing thing I have everwitnessed on the internet. Before you even think aboutsaying it, Captain Asshat, I know it's just a website.But... you'll see.
Proposedly written by amathemetician gone insane, this website is not for the easilyscared. Bricks were shat.

The Evokation, in my opinion is themost disturbing part of the site.
Reading through IKNOW it means something, but I can't put my finger onit.
All I can establish is that 9 is some sort of'divine' number and Eht Namuh is The Human backwards,and this is after 3 solid hours of reading the page andtrying to decypher it in some way.
Sequences arerepeated and as is the number 9. Mismatching figureswithin sequences are always 9 or add up to 9.
>_<

E.g.

a1 b2 c3 d4 e5 f6 g7 h8 i9j1 k2 l3 m4 n5 o6 p7 q8 r9 s1 t2 u3 v4 w5 x6 y7z8

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v wx y z
z y x w v u t s r q p o n m l k j i h g f e d cb a

a+z 1+8=9
b+y 2+7=9
c+x 3+6=9
d+w4+5=9
e+v 5+4=9
f+u 6+3=9
g+t 7+2=9
h+s8+1=9
i+r 9+9=18
j+q 1+8=9
k+p 2+7=9
l+o3+6=9
m+n 4+5=9
n+m 5+4=9
o+l 6+3=9
p+k7+2=9
q+j 8+1=9
r+i 9+9=18
s+h 1+8=9
t+g2+7=9
u+f 3+6=9
v+e 4+5=9
w+d 5+4=9
x+c6+3=9
y+b 7+2=9
z+a 8+1=9

The only two that don't match up are r and i. Which are both 9. 9+9 =18
1 + 8 = 9

But what does it mean?

What does H3 think?

Subject: NELSON MANDELA. IMAGINE THERE'S A HEAVEN
the question
why did you paint him like that?
I HAVE MADE OTHER IMAGES OF NELSON MANDELA. THAT PARTICULAR PAINTING STARTED OUT AS A DANCER AND GREW INTO THE SIMULCRA EVOKING PORTRAIT OF MANDELA. THE HEAD IS IN PROFILE THE DANCER IS SWIRLING IN HER DRESS WHICH BECAME MANDIBA’S CLOAK. AND THE HAND HOLDING THE STICK ON THE RIGHT HAS BANGLES ON THE WRIST! THEREIN OTHER FETISH IMAGES RESPOND TO THE PERCEPTIVE EYE. THE HEAT AND MAGIC OF AFRICA! OLD AFRICA.
THE FIGURE SUCH AS IT IS, SHOULD BE SEEN IN PROFILE! STARE AS YOU MIGHT STARE AT THE STARS. SAME AS WITH THE LAST SUPPER! YOUR IMAGINATION PAINTS THE PICTURE AS WELL AS! THE SURFACE BECOME FLUID, MALLEABLE, MELLIFLUOUS, SUGGESTIVE! IS IT THIS IS IT THAT!
ANOTHER IMAGE ON THE CIVIL RIGHTS STRUGGLE IN AMERICA IS! “THE STRANGE DREAM OF VIOLA LIUZZIO”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viola_Liuzzo
“AFRICAN NIGHTMARE! SPECTRE OF FAMINE” 1975. IS AN EARLIER EXAMPLE SET WITHIN AN AFRICAN THEME!

Post by warrioroftheyuga » 28 Mar 2017 02:55

This has nothing to do with the bloody Devil. People see codes and randomness and they just jump "Oh, The Devil!" Stop, dear. I am surprised not many have easily seen the things depicted in eht namuh...it's obviously about "the human".

O
NAMUH
THOU

And...I spent some time on the website...it's not creepy but it still gave me a feeling of despair.

It has far too many religious quotes. Hinduism, Christianity, Egyptian myths, etc...some others I am probably not familiar with.

Do not be afraid!

"OM BHUR BHUVAH SVAHA TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM
BHARGO DEVASYA DHIMAHI DHIYO YO NAH PRACODAYAT"
on the page 5th or 6th?
Is a Hindu prayer to Goddess Durga for protection.

References to "Kali Yuga" - the Hindu version of the end of days...a warrior on a white horse comes...signifying the end of all...and the cycle begins again!

But what is ZED ALIZ ZED? anyone know?

"NOWT NOR SUMMAT BEING BEING A SUMMAT AND NOWT"
Nothing nor something being being a something and nothing!!!

I am getting chills!!!

"A
BEING
THAT IS NEITHER OF EITHER EITHER OF NEITHER IS THAT
NEITHER UPSIDE DOWN OR DOWNSIDE UP NEITHER
INSIDE NOR OUTSIDE OUTSIDE NOR INSIDE
ALWAYS
EVERYTHING AND NOTHING ALWAYS NOTHING AND EVERYTHING"

Is this an an attempt at creeping people out? Or does it hold mathematical genius and a religious truth?

ISIS, MAAT - Egyptian Gods/Goddesses

"MOMENT OF MIRRORED OPPOSITES HAS ARRIVED"
What reflection cast upon the mirror?

"AND THAT IS THE VERDICT OF YOU ALL?
I AYE EYE AYE I
AN
I
FOR
AN
I
THE
PERFECT LAW THE LAW PERFECT
JUDGEMENT PERFECT PERFECT JUDGEMENT"
We are all guilty - we will all face judgement. We are all tainted by the schemes of others.

Oh, GOD

NOT "MAA KHERU"!!! BUT "MAAT KHERU" - Egyptian for the voice of truth
MAAT IS TRUTH TRUTH IS MAAT THE TRUTH ISIS

I am sorry. I am really sorry.

AUM MANI PADME HUM - Buddhist mantra

Why is it mirrored? Why this extra confusion? Why can the truth never be delivered straight?

VE NUS SUN EV - Venus the Goddess and the Sun The cursed women with coarse skin

"ANDROGYNOUS CREATIVE LIFE SUSTAINING EVERYTHING"

- important. The perfect being is androgynous. The androgynous mind is truly broad. To sustain life - woman and man - held in power - both alike.

THAT FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS

I am sorry. I feel like crying. I am tired of scrolling. I feel like crying.

"HEAREST THOU THIS MY VOICE AND LET MY CRY COME UNTO THEE
"AWAKEN TO THIS IMAGINATIVE RESURRECTION AND ALLOW IT TO ROUSE IN THEE SUDDEN AWARENESS"

Brahma created all. Krishna remembers all. We have all but lived many a times.

ENOUGH.

Don't bid me goodbye. I cannot withstand this by myself. Please, come and help.

"THE
UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE
OF
ALL THE
WORLDS PEOPLE
COULD
BE
WRITTEN WITH A HANDFUL OF THESE SIGNS
BY
WRITING
THE
26
LETTERS
OF
THE
ALPHABET
IN A CERTAIN ORDER ONE MAY PUT DOWN ALMOST ANY MESSAGE"

I despise you for this.

"LIGHT AND LIFE
Lars Olof Bjorn 1976

Page 197

"By writing the 26 letters of the alphabet in a certain order one may put down almost any message (this book 'is written with the same letters' as the Encyclopaedia Britannica and Winnie the Pooh, only the order of the letters differs). In the same way Nature is able to convey with her language how a cell and a whole organism is to be constructed and how it is to function. Nature has succeeded better than we humans; for the genetic code there is only one universal language which is the same in a man, a bean plant and a bacterium.

"BY WRITING THE 26 LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET IN A CERTAIN ORDER
ONE MAY PUT DOWN ALMOST ANY MESSAGE""

How dare you?

OSIRIS OSIRIS SIRIUS SIRIUS
brightest star

False prophets. This reeks of arrogance. You command yourself as if you know more.

Language is a barrier.

OSIRIS - Egyptian God of afterlife

Stop being afraid. There is nothing to be afraid of. Everything demands only understanding. Not fear. Overcome fear by understanding. Not by ignoring.

The Dog Star - SIRIUS - the brightest star

The star God?

I don't want to look any more. I want to cry.

I am one. Join me to be all

Dave Denison was a British surrealist artist and mathematician, although he's most known for this site - 973-eht-namuh-973 - which he created. Other than that, he seemed to be really into the occult/religious. I might be wrong on this, but I'm quite sure that he has passed.

In regards to Redbeck's connection to Dave D's work, I believe that they are carrying on his legacy, but I would highly appreciate it if Redbeck would clarify this.

Why do you think he's dead? I'm very curious.

 

PEOPLE OF THE ORACLE.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS.

WITH RESPECT TO THE QUESTIONS RAISED, YOUR INTEREST IS MUCH APPRECIATED.

HERE AM I, ALIVE AND WELL, IN THE STARSHIP.

HEARKEN!

A MYSTERIOUS VOICE IN THE NIGHT, I DELIGHT IN THE LIGHT IN THE LIGHT I DELIGHT.

D FOR DAVE IS THE SOLE MOTIVATING CREATIVE FORCE RESPONSIBLE FOR EXTTERIORIZING AND MAINTAINING THE 973-EH-NAMUH--973 SITE IN IT'S ENTIRETY.AND ADDS TO THE GREAT WORK DAY IN AND DAY OUT.

IMPORTANT TO UNDERSAND THAT EVERYTHING PRESENT ON THE SITE HAS BEEN GENERATED FOR AND ON BEHALF OF, VIA THE SAME CALLING.

THE MAJORITY OF SYMBOLS, ANIMATIONS, AND TECHNICAL KNOW HOW COMMISIONED TO ORDER, LOCALLY FROM FRIENDS AND OTHER INTERESTED CONTACTS.

NEVERTHELESS, THIS WORK HAS RECEIVED IMMEASURABLE HELP FROM COUNTLESS SOURCES IN BOTH CONTENT AND PRESENTATION OF MATERIAL

REGARDING THE EVER PRESENT TABLES, ALL WITHOUT EXCEPTION HAVE BEEN CREATED BY HAND IN THE FOLLOWING WAY. FIRSTLY, WRITTEN OUT IN HUNDREDS OF NOTEBOOKS, ALONG WITH ANY OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION. THEN PAINSTAKINGLY TRANSFERRED INTO THE FORMAT NECESSARY TO PRESENT THEM AS SEEN ON THE INTERNET.

THE SITE IS MASSIVE IN CONTENT, AND YET, I AM CONSTANTLY INUNDATED WITH INFORMATION FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE OTHER SIDE IN CONSTANT FLOW. SO NOT ONLY NEW MATERIAL AWAITS ITS TIME, BUT MASSES OF INFORMATION ALREADY AWAKENED AWAITING THEIR MOMENT. MUCH OF IT YEARS OLD.

FOR SOME TIME I WAS ABLE TO EMPLOY A WOMAN FRIEND DEAR WENDY,WHO WAS A GREAT HELP IN TRANSCRIBING THE NOTE BOOKS. SADLY THAT CAME TO AN END A FEW YEARS AGO. A GREAT MANY NOTEBOOKS NOW LYING DORMANT, WITH EVERY TABLE RELIANT ON SELF HELP.

I HAVE MADE ENQUIRIES IN THE PAST AS TO CREATING A PROGRAMME THAT WOULD FACILITATE THE PROCESS AUTOMATICALLY. HOWEVER AFTER SEVERAL PROMISING RESPONSES, SOME OF WHICH EMANATED FROM ORACLE MEMBERS. NOTHING MATERIALISED. AS A CONSEQUENCE MY SENTENCE TO HARD LABOUR CONTINUES..

ALONGSIDE THIS, EVERYDAY IS SPENT WORKING ON OTHER GIFTS OF THE INNER MINDS I, THAT HAVE TO BE RECORDED AS AND WHEN I CAN.

I AM AGED 81, AND NEVER AM I NOT ON CALL TO THE GREAT WORK.

THEREFORE, MY DEAR FRIEND AND COUSIN, THE ESTEEMED REDBECK, WHO HAS A GREAT INTEREST IN THE WORK AND WHO HAS MADE SUCH A MASSIVE CONTRIBUTION TO THE ORACLE, IS, BLESSEDLY, AND KINDLY, FACILITATING SUGGESTIONS AND POSTS THAT FROM TIME TO TIME I THINK APPROPRIATE TO BRING TO PUBLIC NOTICE. AND TIME WISE ABSOLUTELY INVALUABLE IN MY DAY TO DAY DAY.

THE ILLUSTREOUS REDBECK OVERSEES THE ORACLE AND HIS GREAT AFFINITY AND WISDOM ARE OF IMMENSE VALUE TO THE TASK IN HAND. OF WHICH EVERY MEMBER OF THE ORACLE FORUM BEARS RESPONSIBILITY.

YOU WILL KNOW THE OLD ADAGE, SO MUCH TO DO, SO LITTLE TIME.

THE TIME THAT IS COMING NOW IS.

THE HOURS OF HORUS HAS ARRIVED.

GLOBAL WARNING
GLOBAL WARMING.

THIS WORK IS THE R IIN EVOLUTION REVOLUTION, THE R IN ELEVATION REVELATION. IT IS THE PROVING OF GOD MIND, UNIVERSAL MIND, THE COSMIC CONCIOUSNESS OF HUMAN MIND.

RISE UP AND BE COUNTED DEAR PEOPLE.

IN A VERY REAL SENSE THIS IS NOT MY WORK IT IS THE WORK OF THE ALL AND SUNDRY OF PLANET EARTH.

LET THE GO DO GOOD GOD BE WITH YOU SAY I.

FROM DAVID DENISON. HEREIN THE I'M DENISON DIMENSION.

FURTHER IFORMATION.

THE SITE HAS BEEN DISPLAYED ON THE INTERNET SINCE THE YEAR 2000

THE UNFOLDING IN WRITTEN FORM BEGAN IN 1995, THE BEGINNING OF IT ALL MUCH EARLIER, AS IF BY MAGIC WILL INTENDED.

PRIOR TO THIS CAME THE DYING OF THE DEATH.

THE SELF CRUCIFIXION OF THE CRUCIFIXION OF THE SELF.

I STARTED PAINTING IN 1963, UNBEKNOWN TO ME I WAS PAINTING IMAGES FOR THE INTERNET BEFORE THERE WAS AN INTERNET

1958, JOINED THE RAF FOR 3 YEARS.

1963 BEGAN 27 YEARS IN THE PRISON SERVICE

2 YEARS AS A DISCIPLINE OFFICER AND THE REST AS A MEDIC.

I WAS NEVER A MATHMATICIAN

AND SO DEAR PEOPLE, YES! DAVE D IS STILL TREADING THE BOARDS..

It's a rebuke of religion and a reaffirmation of Existentialism/Absurdism. Additionally, it's one hell of a masterpiece, possibly the greatest artistic statement of mankind.

Traverse the maze with a rational, atheistic mind, and your revelations will empower and enlighten you. Look out for duality, the absurd, and absurd duality.

Reddit. Have you seen this website It's purportedly the work of a mad mathematician_ nosleep.mht

[–]mehtulupurazz 56 points 4 hours ago

Has nobody posted eht-namuh yet? It is the single most disturbing site I have ever come across on the internet. Basically, it is the endless rants of a paranoid schizophrenic man named David Denison who, in short, believes to have unlocked the secrets of the universe using his Magical Alphabet which he came up with. The main page is one of the longest pages I've ever encountered, and this is such a minute fraction of the entire site. I have spent countless hours on it, trying to make some sense of it all.
The most disturbing part about it all is the sheer amount of work he must have put into it. He quotes a ton of religious texts throughout his writings, which means he has obviously devoted years of his life solely to studying these texts in order to back up his Magical Alphabet theory, but the most mind-boggling part is just how much he has fucking written. There are so many pages on this website. I'm not talking a hundred, or a thousand - I'm talking tens of thousands. I remember somebody went into the site code on an old reddit thread from years back (the one I discovered this site from) and found out just how many pages there are. Hell, there isn't just an index - there is an index of indices.
He also has some very disturbing artwork and paintings which he has done.

Check out this site. It's truly a journey into the mind of the most horribly insane.

illumination varies in degrees, shades, colors, and gradients, yet it stems from one all and will return to the same conclusion.

It's a rebuke of religion and a reaffirmation of Existentialism/Absurdism. Additionally, it's one hell of a masterpiece, possibly the greatest artistic statement of mankind.

Traverse the maze with a rational, atheistic mind, and your revelations will empower and enlighten you. Look out for duality, the absurd, and absurd duality.

The website seems to be occult and filled with numerology, cryptology featuring other various coding, religious topics/art and it seems like it is leading to something to be found, some kind of revelation or understanding. Numbers like 9, 7, 5, and 3 have spiritual meaning and are used to decode messages.

A cultist website hiding a rabbit hole laid down by a crazy British surrealist painter.

What the fuck.

I've done some digging of my own and it is a REALLY deep rabbit hole. The website opens with the words "A MAZE IN ABRACADABRA" and when you click on the phrase "A MAZE IN" you're taken to a page with three spinning circles. When you click on these, it takes you to a page with cryptic messages and some clues as to what the site is about. At the bottom of the page are arrows to get to the different pages.

There are THOUSANDS of these pages, all with cryptic secrets and codes. I don't fully understand everything on it, but clicking through the pages takes you to different tables that piece together how to decode the site.

After some more digging I discovered the Oracle, the forum where members of the site gather to reveal their findings. A lot of the posts on it reference some deeper meaning or truth to life that is found by decoding the site, and the revelation seems to be circular in a way. It takes you back to the beginning of your journey, but now you have the key to fully understand the site. On your final run through, the understanding occurs.

Some themes seem to be about a "hivemind" of some sort. One user described quantum entanglement linking human brains together, and that being why we feel empathy. In the same post, he said that people have different interpretations of the site at first, but adopt a universal view when they understand more.

The most interesting Oracle post though, at least to me, was made by a user called whiterabbit. He said that he had found the solution to the site and that he wouldn't be responsible for any side effects.

The creator of the website is a man named David Denison, a surrealist artist and occultist. He also painted the paintings on the site and describes the site as his life's work.He was reportedly the most well known surrealist painter in the Uk in the 1970s-1980s.

Hope you guys found this interesting.

ITS ONLY OF LATE AS I SIT HERE ALONE

AND REFLECT ON THE PASSAGE OF TIME

THAT I FEEL THE AGING OF FLESH ON THE BONE

THE GREYING OF HAIR AS A SIGN

OF A DAY THAT IS LONG AND NOW NEARLY O'ER

OF A NIGHT JUST ABOUT TO BEGIN

OF THE WORKING IN MAN OF GODS HOLY LAW

AND A TIME FOR THE PAYING OF SIN

 

WILL FOOT NE'R AGAIN SQUELSH SOFT ON WET GRASS

NOR TEETH ON RIPE APPLE TO BITE

SHALL I NEVER AGAIN DRINK BEER FROM A GLASS

WENDING SLOW ON MY WAY FEELING TIGHT.

AND WHAT OF THE FRIENDS TO LEAVE BEHIND

THE ONES I'VE MET ON THE WAY

I WONDER WELL DO YOU THINK THEY'LL MIND

DO YOU THINK THEY'LL HAVE OUGHT TO SAY

 

NOW FEAR BESETS THIS ONE PROUD HEART

AND ICE IN THE MARROW I FEEL

AT LAST SO IT SEEMS THE TIME COMES TO PART

TIRED SOUL FROM THIS BODY TO STEAL

 

DIMENSION 1965
