Another Huge LOST Theory

Denny · 03-29-2006, 07:38 PM

EW gives another deep theory for LOST:

THE REGENESIS THEORY OF LOST: PART ONE

Like many Lost fans, I've been intrigued and baffled by the interest the Others have taken in children. Why did they abduct Rousseau's baby? Why did they snatch Walt? Why did they take the kids that were among the Tailies?

The answer to this mystery, I believe, might be found in the notion of the ''feral child.''. You know, the whole ''raised by wolves''/Jodie Foster-in-Nell kind of thing.

In fact, 1970 — the year that the Dharma Initiative was created, according to the Orientation Film — was a notable year in the storied and often disturbing history of feral children: The Wild Child, director Francois Truffaut's take on the legendary feral child Victory of Aveyron, was released in America.

Also that year, police in Los Angeles discovered ''Genie'', a tragic case of neglect and abuse that shocked the country.

The oldest ''feral child'' story on record reportedly comes from the ancient historian Heroditus, who tells of an Egyptian ruler who conducted an experiment in the origin of language by having two newborn babies raised in isolation.

The novelist Paul Auster built upon this myth in his mind-bending novella City of Glass. It tells the story of a mystery writer named Quinn, a profoundly sad, lost soul, who is confused for a private detective named — get this — Paul Auster. For giggles, Quinn adopts the Auster persona and takes on the strange case of a troubled man named Peter Stillman. Seems Mr. Stillman was raised in a closet by his mad-scientist father, who was convinced that a child raised in cultural isolation could recover the original language that God gave to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden — the language of creation, a language with possible power over creation, a language lost to mankind after that whole business with the snake and the apple. (See: Genesis Chapter 3, or John Milton's Paradise Lost.)

(TANGENT: Lost fans might want to check out City of Glass, as both share several common themes. In fact, remember that manuscript Hurley found in a recent episode entitled ''Bad Twin''? In our real world, this book will be published in May, and judging from the plot synopsis, it sounds exactly like the kind of trippy postmodern detective story Paul Auster would write. Maybe he did: The credited author is the fictitious ''Gary Troupe'' — an anagram for ''Purgatory.'' Then again, maybe there's no connection to Auster at all, and it's probably just total coincidence that the protagonist of Bad Twin is named... Paul Artisan.)

I wonder:

Did Dharma believe that the Island — with its ''unique'' fluctuations of restorative electromagnetic energy (see: The Body Electric/Locke's legs and Jin's potency) — was the Garden of Eden, or at least an environment similar to the Garden of Eden?

Was Dharma raising a child in the isolation of the Hatch in hopes recreating the perfection of Adam and Eve?

Did Dharma recover the original language of God — and are the hieroglyphics in the Hatch the written expression of that language?

I wonder...

If you think I'm crazy, well... you don't know the half of it. Literally.

Next week, I'll share the remainder of my ''Regenesis theory,'' and once I dazzle you with Lost's undeniable connections to John Lennon's ''Imagine,'' ''Instant Karma!,'' and ''Nutopia'' — as well as Marshall McLuhan's The Medium Is the Massage — I have no doubt you will be convinced of my new theory's complete and total accuracy....

...or my complete and total insanity.

Calligraphy is one of the ancient spheres of the human culture. It has been brushing up together with writing. It is characterized by the continuous striving for perfection. The art of handwriting both ancient and contemporary, its off-beat origin should be taken tremblingly, with reverence.

But alas… a typewriter, computer, communicator… The mankind is steadily going away from the "handmade speech", that's is the words written on parchment, elm, paper or on turns. The scientific articles, novels, verses and love letters, all these we type on the keyboard.

But things are not too bad! Recently there was initiated a new project "International Calligraphic Exhibitoin". Its main goal is to form beautiful and healthy society through the art of calligraphy. The exhibition will be opened on Seprember 16th at the St.Petersburg State Academic Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture n.a. I.E. Repin. One of the mottos of the International Calligraphic Exhibition: Calligraphy is the art of excellence.

The framework of the exhibition will include the works of the outstanding calligraphers from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine. To clearly understand the flexibility of calligraphy there will be organized a special exposition of the calligraphic schools of Europe, Baltic states, USA, Israel, China, Japan, Cyria and UAE.

The exhibition will also include the museum exposition displaying the old manuscripts of different centuries. Children and their parents, and all the comers will take pleasure of the calligraphic lessons and interesting lectures, while the professionals will take the opportunity to brush up their skills at the master-classes.

On May 14th at 2 pm there will be organized the presentation of the International Calligraphic Exhibition at Crocus Expo. At the presentation one will see a part of the pearls of the calligraphic gallery, which nearly everyday is added by new works and authors.

P.S.: I would add for myself: undoubtedly, they do the right deal. Russia has always been living with fervor. The least I can do for the "International Calligraphic Exhibition", in which I trust and believe it is needed and necessary is to present this beautiful art to the wide audience, to you, dear forum participants. I would be grateful if the art of calligraphy awaken interest and a drop of enthusiasm.
