Maths and Musical Paths





According to   Plato   the harmony of numbers
 is closely related to musical harmony
 and at the same time with our own interior.
 Search each in his own inner harmony that can be an exciting journey.

A short tale:
Green Cat and the Ants  

Once upon a time a cat goes for a walk.
His hair was so brilliant that seems to shine under the sun,
He didn't like ants because they tickled the feet  of the cat.
However, one day the cat was sick and slowly watching ants.
They're walking as a dance exploring their space.
The ants's antennas are moving with a magnetic rythm.
Those movings remember really an ancestral coreography.
Suddenly, he understood that he can learn a lot about his new friends.
All are happy by the new friendship and playing together.
Sometimes they go out together and the ants go up his head.
Life is easier with mates and maths and music.

Life teaches

Many great men of the past with stunning ideas
perhaps would chagrin of use made of any text
because they lose all sense out of context.

Every idea makes sense in terms of its environment,
and we can imagine its evolution in time,
but if we apply it literally is not always valid.

For instance:

The great John Dewey gives us his pragmatic sense
at a social moment too theorist,
 but in a pragmatic society
 would perhaps postulates opposites.

The great Maria Montessori emphasized hygiene
 in a  social environment precarious,
 but in a wealthy  and technological society
maybe would have very different ideas.


However,
 the same Dewey gives us a solution 
when life is defined as education.



Life teaches, so let's live.
 Sharing moments, the best gift.

Comprehension

An interesting word is "comprehension"
because it involves internalizing the information.
The mind begins with images from the apprehension
and continues with ideas to the comprehension.
It is a mental journey that may just be individual.

The basis of your freedom is on the internalization of information.
So it is very important: to reading comprehension
and appropriate selection of information.



Some paths for reading comprehension.







 


 There is also incomprehensible ideas
just as there   ideas inhaprehensibles.
  Perhaps these ideas are the most interesting and amazing.

Learn to learn

"It is not enough to teach men a specialty. This becomes something of usable machines but not valid individuals. Individual To be valid, the man must feel strongly that to which it can aspire. Has to receive a lively sense of the beautiful and of the morally good. Otherwise it looks more like a well-trained dog than a harmoniously developed body. Should learn to understand the motivations, hopes and sorrows of the people to acquire the right attitude about individuals and society .... "

Summary of an interview on educational problems,
appeared in the "New York Times", Fall 1952.


Learn to learn can be a right flight for the own life.

Evolution and Improvisation

Education must prepare us for life.
Life in our century is constantly changing.
Therefore education must prepare us for this change.
It's interesting the role of words as evolution and improvisation.
They are basic in adaptation to the variation.

This great video has a lot of inspiration about it,
in the suggestive images by Ben Ridgway
and the convincing words by Michael Garfield.

The key



The key which opens
all doors of communication
is a real connection
and sincere disposition.






explains what is communication.



Now we have a passion, which is the true communication.
But a possible enemy is the art of manipulation
and a good solution is the genius of animation.

We have sophisticated translators to overcome language barriers.
But it would be nice to find an international language for everybody.
It should  be second language not native for everyone
so nobody could play with advantage.



Some people try to make Esperanto an international language.
It's a simple artificial language with almost every word unchanged.
However it's difficult integrate to the more than 6,800 languages ​​in the world.
Every language is important to their users because is how works its thinking.
It seems is not easy to come to terms.

Not even  the deaf with its sign language so emblematic.
Hopefully someday we have an international sign language
because the hands can be very expressive.


Sign Language Pop: Pokemon Theme Song from Erik Pintar on Vimeo.

So as close to universality 
is when using the animation
with genius and without verbal language.
It's really communication for all.
The animations without verbal language
 are international.

  For example this animation speaks without words.

The animator is a powerful artist.

In reference to the verbal language
on de world, the three most spoken
are Chinese, English and Spanish.
Variable depending on the data source.
Due to the difficulty of Chinese and its many variants,
and to mark the power of the internet and the economy
in which the dominant language is English,
this is the language that  progressively imposed.
This gives an advantage to those
 who have it as a native language.



Above all this the predisposition
is basic for true communication.

Thesis, antithesis and synthesis

Do not be scared of these three strange words.
This just means an idea, its opposite,
 and the combination of both.
It will taught in philosophy when you're older.
But life forces us to choose steadily
since that we are children.
So this could be useful. Solution may be a fusion.
    The thesis is an idea.
    The antithesis is its opposite.
    The synthesis is the combination.
Perhaps with an example you'll understand.

This new tool to make lists your things  can be
 a fruitful application in the information age.

This notion seems contrary because advise don't make lists.

The synthesis of both ideas could be to find time for everything.

Remember to look for the right balance
 between various ideas when you have a dilemma.
