Yeah. I'm done with further investigation of the Desdamona Code and aspects of Kealey's work as well.
I want to start off by saying that I’m not one of those people who has an instant knee-jerk reaction against the idea of those at the top having some sort of message coding system for communication with each other. This to me is probable and I’m still pursuing investigation. This is one of the reasons why I gave Kealey’s idea of the Desdamona code a chance and did not dismiss him without at least giving it a chance. Kealey has an elegant way of describing certain aspects of the system of which I very much appreciate and has helped me come to new understandings. But just like with anyone I research, there are good things and there are bad things. The Desdemona code has so many problems that I concluded that it’s probably not an intended code at all.
I have a lot to say about this, but I think I'll spare you all the trouble if I just get to the root of this issue.
Kealey says the Desdemona Code is a pictographical story that he found in a type font. And by connecting the font letters together, what he discovered were multiple pictographs that read out a story of genetic engineering and assumed it to be the coding langauge of the elite.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Problem #1: I figured the very first step in understanding the code would be to understand logical ordering to how the images are arranged...example, the A and the B are connected back to back. The C and the Z are connected by facing each other, etc...If this was a real code, there would've had to have been a logical sequencing to these images, but they appear at random. I asked Kealey about the logic of the pairing and he told me he just arranged them until he had an image he liked. So the very basis of the Desdemona is of his own working and not an intended code.
Problem #2: Every pictograph is an image with a particular story to it...and all of the pictographs together read out a larger story about the alleged genetic engineering of the human species. Kealey gave me the meaning to each pictograph...but I must be honest when I say that I don't see anything in the way he describes it at all. If I gave this chart to any random person and asked them to tell me if they see a story, what would happen would be more akin to a Rorschach test with many individual interpretations as opposed to any commonly agreed narrative. Where as Kealey has such an elaborate story for each and every one of these images, I'm inclined to believe he's reading stories into the images and not the other way around.
Again, I have a lot more to say about the problems with the DC in much more detail, but it would be redundant to go into such detail because the basis of it is already flawed. And since Kealey based most of his perspective on the code, I will have to further conclude that much of Kealey's theories are negated in my mind (especially the ones about GE) until further evidence can prove these claims. If anyone has any evidence, please feel free to share.
