Rodger organised to have Ken Barrett, mathematician and Reiki healer from Melbourne, give a talk while he was here on holiday. We have been waiting a longtime for this event! My mind is truly expanded – so much to take in from this lecture – much to study, more questions than answers in fact, so I’ll just quickly upload those slides as promised – its in pdf format so you can see them without powerpoint on the internet or download to your computer. A version with my notes will be uploaded later and futher commentary here on the blog.

and the short TEDtalk by Garrett Lisi ( the E8 theorist mentioned by Ken ) I enjoyed it although since Wal Thornhill’s Electric Universe lecture basically shows relativity, string theory and multiverses, and particle physics is imaginary maths, I have politely filed it mentally under ‘entertainment’ rather than ‘science’ or ‘Technology’ www.ted.com/talks/garrett_lisi_on_his_theory_of_everything
Although last saturday’s sacred geometry with Ken Barrett was the final Astrotas meeting for the near future, the journey continues with this blog and Astro south australia.
