The two initial acrostics just sprang up in my mind the way these sometimes do. I still have a fairly clear image of the room where it happened.The idea of presenting them in their final form came along some months later, as far as I remember, but I can’t recall the details. The second message, I suppose is that the truth nature of spacetime is always there to be seen, but only if you look at it in the correct way. 😉
Fortunately this particular turing test wasn’t all that difficult! And you know I appreciated the crossword puzzle nature of this message, very mind-expanding to realize that my brain, while presented with a meaningful message, tries REALLY HARD to make sense of the part that makes no sense.
I would be curious to know, do you remember how you received this message? What prompted you to layout the letters in this way?
Thank you Ben this is a great message. (1980, wow!)
