Rashid's Blog: A Place for Inquisitive Souls

Room W007, Durham University, December 5^th 1-4.30pm

With the majority of humans on the planet now residing in towns and cities, it is de rigueur for commentators to describe the world as ‘urban’; to herald an ‘urban revolution’ and proclaim cities as the triumphal spaces that ‘make us human’ (cf. Brugmann, 2009; Glaeser, 2011). Even in places that are not visibly urban, it would seem that urbanism – as a set of political, economic, cultural and symbolic forces – is often identified to be fundamental in the organisation of geography and everyday life. These are big claims begging searching questions for researchers of Geography and Urban Studies. And in this regard, it is to be welcomed that the relations between ‘urban’ and ‘world’ (or ‘planet’ or ‘globe’) have become a primary focus for critical urban research in recent years. For example, and to invoke the extraordinarily prophetic thinking of…

Part One

“I managed to walk calmly to the highway and, thank God, found a bus quickly to return to Damascus,” Samir writes after having gone to the small shelter on the outskirts of Damascus, where he has been caring for 19 cats and 7 wild animals, for the past several years. (To protect his safety, Samir is not his real name.)

On Thursday October 4, he went, as he does nearly every day, to feed the animals and clean their areas.  After he was there for a few minutes, he could hear renewed fighting on the other side of the highway. “It got very loud and even included fighter jets.” On every trip there he walks through fields overlooked by snipers, hence the need to walk slowly and calmly, to indicate that he belongs in the area and is a civilian going about his normal affairs, so as not…

In addition to the discovery of The Becker Hagens Grid,

Russian researchers Nikolai Goncharov,  Vyacheslav Morozov, and Valery Makarov  discovered a ‘Hyperdimensional’ grid that is linked to several of the Earths’  surface features. Basing their research on the work of American researcher Ivan T. Sanderson who found twelve so-called “Vile Vortexes” or energy disturbances located at equal distances on the surface of the Earth. The Russians plotted the framework on which these vortices lie, and found twin Platonic crystal structures in superimposition, combining to form a Double Icosahedron with a Double Dodecahedron.

In the large diagram below we are visualizing this Hyper-dimensional Earth Grid Geometry in six  stages.

Diagrams 1 and 2 show the Tetrahedron as seen from the North and South Poles respectively.

Diagram 3 shows the star tetrahedron created by the combination 1 and 2.

In diagram 4, we see the positioning of the surface icosahedron followed by the addition…
