Leandro Karnal

Although you may not understand portuguese language, the link below directs you to a singular speaker. A beautiful Brazilian mind worth meeting in this lifetime. 
Leandro Karnal is a professor, an academic, an historian and a speaker...
This is all pretty ordinary, right? But watch him speaking for two hours, without a five seconds break and you will be amazed. 
So he is this kind of mind which speaks historic data with precision: - day, year and place but about different matters and authors. From ancient greek period to the current day! Yeah, he is formidable!
But if you expect to be bored by a library rat, be no fool, Leandro Karnal has a spicy, dark humor manner to introduce some ideas through his speech that help you digest his presentations like an eclair. 
For me, one of the most interesting personalities in the Portuguese internet world. 
Keep it coming Prof. Leandro!

Hurricane

- Review on Hurricane and Why -

Note: This and other texts on the same topic published on Plurwalker.blogspot.com under the name - The continuous flow - were written on 12.12.2016.

Watch and listen to Hurricane from Thirty Seconds to Mars. [read below in the end]
When I first started my review on the Westworld TV serie, I started with a quote of Edgar Allan Poe poem The Raven, which is inserted in the end of this audiovisual production, directed and produced by Jared Leto under Bartholomew Cubbins name and his crew. 
It is signed as a Sysiphus production, an extraordinary and perpetual Greek mythological figure - Sysiphus
This audiovisual production came up online, back in 2010. It is fully connected to the continuous flow - Birth, Life, Death, Re-birth [Samsara] which is exactly what happens to the hosts in the Westworld and to humans on Planet Earth.
About 9 minutes from the start in the song timeline, there’s this voice quoting William Shakespeare, most remarkable work Romeo and Juliet: these violent delights have violent ends (...)
Well, this is one of the main quotes in The Westworld. From the Pilot until the season finale of first season. Why are those quotes referenced throughout the time, the years, the centuries, the millenium?
Now If I put it all together since the beginning of my review to this very last part, all the signs, the coincidences are further than a limited dream.

P.S. Now (when I am doing the post on my blog) looking at the date when this video as published it gives me the shivers! It was December 12th 2010. Before in the afternoon when I wrote all about it, I just looked into the year, not the day!! It is exactly 6 years after this production came online on youtube... but it doesn’t ends here! The french words in the video are quotes of Marquis de Sade. Today, early in the morning I have read a review on Westworld city called Pariah, where a director references a work from Marquis de Sade the 120 days of Sodom for the production of the orgy. But the incredible thing is that I searched for Pariah after Neil deGrasse Tyson speaks about it in Cosmos a spacetime odyssey episode The Lost Worlds of Planet Earth, telling that Alfred Wegener became a pariah at scientific conferences when he couldn’t explain his own theory.   
It is overwhelming!
