Istanbul City of Dreams 2

Kemals Storey written for the European Capital of Culture 2010

Nothing! Nothing they said, the void, a vast emptiness. Nothing could be so wrong thought Kemal as he contemplated the red and green light of the Helix
nebula through his Perelman scope.. This humanity believed was where they had first appeared bursting outwards from the center of the nebula in a flash of Perelman radiation so powerful it transformed the once pale crimson glow of the nebular ring to its now pulsing red green halo.

Everywhere he was surrounded by energy, spaced throbbed with power and motion. Kemal felt connected to the core processes, the fusion that drove the solar cycles, the still poorly understood quantum dynamics that created the dark matter. He pondered the impossibility of the Perelman fractal geometry
that described the shape of the universe. Kemal knew of a time when humans could ignore such abstract insanity’s as the thought of navigating a universe of fractal dimension, but not now, not when they approached from 650 million light years out.

Only two more cycles before he could fire up the Perelman drive on a plasma torus embedded in the hollowed out asteroid that was his ship. Two more cycles and he would head back to the cydonia
base on Mars. He was in a long cycle orbit just outside the asteroid belt, on watch for any more of the scouts ships they sent on suicidal seek and destroy missions out of the Jupiter Io flux tube. He watched his Perelman radiation monitors, everything was quiet, his torus drive was inactive, local space was as flat as can be expected 60 million kilometers from Jupiter’s spacetime
flux.

Kemal glanced at the Perelman radiation helmet he would wear if his monitors indicated an incoming scout. By manipulating the huge trillion watt potentials in Io’s flux tube and Jupiter’s immense gravity well, they connected the space geometry nodes, allowing the incoming fleet now estimated to be less than 100 million light years out to fling its scouts into Jovian space. He thought of the procedure, once the monitors started screaming, fire the plasma torus drive only for the instant required to fall back into the asteroid belt. There with drives powered down he would be indistinguishable from space rubble, then he would have to use the Perelman helmet to take on the scout ship with the only weapon humans had against them, dreams, in dreams they were vulnerable, in dreams.

In dreams it had started, when only 100 years ago simultaneously humanity had dreamed of them. This was the day when everyone awoke shaken to the core by a dream of such stunning clarity and power. A dream of shapeless malevolent beings of pure evil. A dream of humanities eventual destruction. At first it was not taken seriously, only a dream, true a dream shared by everyone, but it only happened once, and what did it mean?
.
Then scientists obtained the first ever recorded gravity waves. The results from the gravity wave interferometers, when triangulated, pointed to the helix nebula.

This created a paradox for the 21st century physicists, they were sure the only natural phenomenon to produce detectable gravity waves were from a super nova, but the nova that created the plasma remnants of the Helix nebula was older by many orders of magnitude than the event recorded.

This quandary that troubled only the physicists was ignored, the dream forgotten. Humanity spared not a thought, continuing on its path, of war and pillage on the long suffering earth. Then the first scout appeared, shooting from the Jupiter Io flux tube in a burst of radiation of such immense power that all electromagnetic devices sparked and fused, shutting down the grid just as an EMP blast was designed to do in the case of a nuclear conflagration.

Military satellite systems with shielded electronics, strategically focused earthbound were slow to detect the scouts presence as it hurtled earthwards. Earths military leadership wasted no time on the decision to take the scout down, memories of a dream settling whatever debate existed.

Soon a barrage of nuclear missiles were rushing to intercept the scout, these failed as it was later learnt absorbed and destroyed by the scouts mini black holes. Humans watched with horror as the Large Hadron Collider was destroyed by a mini black hole. Humanity had no defense against such weapons, it was then that the scouts trajectory changed, it lost velocity and fell into a terminal orbit. No more missiles rained down to destroy the major cities, it was inert and lifeless floating in space.

When the scout ship was eventually recovered much was learnt. Slowly the story unfolded, the dead revolting mass that controlled the ship was of no comprehensible biology, it was silicon based but its structures where incomprehensible to biologists. It took years to discover the cause of the scout’s death. A woman was found in a coma after collapsing, when she recovered she spoke urgently of a dream. The details were recorded by the councilor at the hospital. When details of the interior and structure of the ship were eventually released to the media the councilor realized the correlation with details of his patients dream. When alerting the authorities it was discovered the recorded details precisely matched the scouts ship. It was discovered in her dream she had encountered the creature, not only this but for months previous she had had dreams of this creature approaching. In the dream the scout was destroyed, with the aid of what she described as a goddess.

Scientists dismissed this reference to a goddess as archetypal, further research led to a postulate, that there was a quantum connection or resonance between the minds of humans and the invaders. This is explained the first mass dream phenomenon. Scientists embarked on a search for any who had such encounter dreams. The problem at first was the multitude claiming such dreams. Soon a second death scout burst forth from the Jovian flux tube, this time the scout ship followed a shorter and faster trajectory, as if aware of its danger. It unloaded its mini black hole missiles and returned immediately back to Jovian space. However it too suddenly lost acceleration outside the orbit of Ganymede. It fell in to an inert trajectory and was captured by Europa’s gravity well, eventually plunging through Europa’s icy surface to sink lost into the vast ice enclosed ocean. However it destroyed the second largest particle accelerator at humanity’s disposal

Again another was found collapsed into a coma. Now humanity had two confirmed dreamers capable of a defense against a technology capable of harnessing the most powerful and elemental forces. Now scientists returned to a thorough investigation of the invader inspired dreams. Much was learnt. The invaders technology was based on knowledge of space geometry. An understanding beyond mankind at that time. It exploited the similarity properties of matter, resulting from the fractal geometry of space time.

The world turned to the leading researcher into geometry, Perelman who years before had stunned the scientific community by solving Ponicares last theorem utilizing a geometric approach to burst through the intellectual barriers of the algebraists. He was awarded the most prestigious medals and prizes for this work. However he rejected all awards claiming a disgust at the arrogance of the scientific community. He withdrew to his family home in a remote Siberian village and was soon forgotten by science. As only a handful of mathematicians could understand just a portion of his work, it was never completely accepted that his proof was complete by the wider community. However this was never an issue for the most mathematically advanced who were stunned by both the power and application of his analysis. Perelman had used an equation from string theory to complete a geometric process. Until that time string theory was a marginal but popular physical theory. In Perlemans work was found the first link between the geometry of space and matter. His geomtrisation technique implied a fractal dimension for spacetime. It implied with enough energy the fractal nature of spacetime could be exposed and exploited, his flow equationsprovided a potential fractal blueprint to exploit this distortion.

At first Perleman refused to heed humanity’s call, however he changed his mind after dreaming himself of the consequence of his inaction. Soon working with leading engineers they back engineered the one captured scout ship. Powerful insights were gained in particular a new particle was implied by the invading technology. This radiation implied by the ships design was a new neutrino that led to the solution for many of the outstanding problems in physics such as the mass gap problem in the Yang Mills model. This neutrino led to a fractal understanding of particle physics and a unified space time matter model. Soon the plasma torus drives were built giving unlimited power and acceleration simply by converting space to matter, a process happening continuously in the creation of the universe, a cycle of dark matter, dark energy and the matter of humanity comfortable planetary home.

Soon it was discovered a link between human brains and this new neutrino, now termed Perelman radiation. New technology’s were developed such as his Perelman scope that allowed observations across the light speed barrier by exploiting the self similarity of the fractal basis of space time. Now for the first time the invading fleet could be monitored as it accelerated in from the helix nebula. Humanity had not yet mastered the faster than light travel that exploited the fractal nature of spacetime. The invading fleet jumped between fractal nodes. These could be calculated from the galactic structure and monitored by Perelman scopes. The progress of the invading fleet was carefully monitored. Time was growing shorter.

The worlds leading physicists and para psychologists worked feverishly to assemble a team of dreamers capable of exploiting the Perelman neutrino, little was known of the interaction between the mind and Perelman radiation. This knowledge though valuable was not essential. Neutrino waveguides could be constructed from the principles of fractal geometry. These were the Perelman helmets which the dreamers could use to amplify the dream contact experience when engaging the invaders. There were some side effects was the effect of similarity principle. This was the heightened connection with the universe. Many could not experience this connection, and continue in a normal state of being . Kemal reveled in this feeling. Having grown up on the streets if Istanbul he had learnt the hard lessons of similarity early. To survive in his native city one needed to be able to blend in. All weakness must be hidden from the sharp eyes of the predator.

He remembered his first dreams of the invaders. The double vision. In his dream he was aware of them on the periphery of his sight. A vague formless predator, hunting, hunting for him, he had no doubt it would rip his flesh from his bones with unspeakable ferocity if he was discovered. He knew how to stay invisible in these dreams, this invisibility of stillness, he knew how to mask his thoughts, he knew even one stray careless thought to escape that he would be exposed and destroyed. In these dreams he was just an invisible watcher. His first parapsychologist had told him that was the critical parameter that distinguished those who had the ability to destroy the invaders among all of humanity’s countless dreamers. That of being a watcher, this is what they were called. Dream watchers.

He remembered his first experience of the dream helmet, the enhanced clarity, no longer double peripheral vision. Now they were exposed, clear yet still formless, now he saw through to their essence. He saw them recoil in horror and fear. He recalled his first sensation of the invading fleet, a seething mass of hateful nothingness.

He recalled his first engagement with the invaders, his monitors had screamed with the power of the Perelman radiation burst. He donned the Perelman helmet and fell immediately into the induced coma.

Immediately he was in his dream. He was in Nicaea
now called Izniik the town of his birth. He was standing next to the lemon tree his father often spoke of to him of. He felt the hideous strength of the death scout. His mind revolted at the contact with something so alien and antithetical to human existence. Then the death scout attacked hand he was frozen helpless both by the paralysis of his fear and the psychical strength of his attacker.
He felt his essence being sucked into the nothingness of his opponent. He felt his vitality being consumed and he recoiled in horror as he felt his demise. That was when she appeared. Impossible to describe, The moment she appeared time was frozen. She walked up tp him smiling. He noticed there was a single lemo0n on the tree. She picked it and bit into its rind smiling. Immediately he felt the prescience of the death scout fall to nothing and he was filled with a warmth and vitality beyond description.

Thanks for this Nigels, interesting, yes for sure , wonderful tribute and work

Istanbul,is a City with a great culture, an incredible wonderful history of thousands of years , truly one of the wonders of the world in its longevity and beautiful buildings and it is an unique land of wonder...My grandfather came from nearby Bulgaria , Sofia actually and the Turkish influence andways of life and doing things was not always welcomed there

the ancient history and ethnicity is somewhat vague from historians accounts, but from what I have read it included the Volga-Bulgarians they are a melded society with ethnicity that is also traced back to the Thracians a warfaring people of great note and were hired guns so to speak, it is also recently been acknowledged that the Bulgarians were the first to work with gold and other metals and are considered to be the real first metallurgists

Bulgaria which in its own right has a wonderful culture and Sofia is known as the city of Roses, there are many monasteries, some of which have been crafted into the mountainsides throughout the country.




The country has suffered through much unrest over many centuries in its struggle to maintain its identity and religious freedoms

Nigel's story is, h'm, something where science, culture, art and history interweave with imagination to bring this interesting conception of dreaming to us.
Actually there is a truth in it /as we see some characters are real with their scientific researches / and there is an invention as well, as a result of imagination .
Sometimes imagination leads us to real facts, Einstein always used his imagination to reach to some phenomenal findings.
So, I think we too need to use our imagination or try to come out of our shells and get to know more about people, nations, culture, history, humanity, music, art, truth...

Bryon, thank you!
Really nice surprise!

So much truth in your words!

yes Milla, I liked the read, I will go through Nigels post again , a lot there.

and our roots and ancestry is always interesting, i love genealogy and have traced back some of the travels of my past ancestors, but it has been years since I really have studied and investigated our past of the name Tosoff. probably last did research about 10 years ago......there is lots more i could say why G-dad left Bulgaria, but aint going there. : )
