Thomas Banyacya, Sr. (1909-1999)

See Hopi Prophecy—A Timeless Warning by Toby McLeod:

My life path changed when I first heard Thomas’s message in 1978 during the fight against Peabody Coal Company’s stripmine on Black Mesa, when we started collaborating on The Four Corners: A National Sacrifice Area?

As messenger and translator for Hopi elders since 1948, Thomas Banyacya, Sr. (1909-1999) traversed the globe trying to help people understand the warnings revealed in the Hopi Prophecy. In November 1995, the Sacred Land Film Project followed Thomas to the Whole Life Expo in Las Vegas where he made two hour-long presentations over two days.

Background: Two events caused Hopi elders to call an unprecedented meeting in 1948: 1) the U.S. government’s creation of the Indian Claims Commission, designed to extinguish aboriginal title to land held by Native Americans by paying them money for lands “taken” but not affirming title to land or returning lands taken, and 2) the “gourd full of ashes” raining fire from the sky in the form of atom bombs dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. These two events confirmed prophecies held by individual Hopi clans and when the elders met to discuss the meaning of these alarming developments, they selected four young Hopi men to serve as translators, interpreters and messengers to carry a warning to the outside world. The inventions and writings of the white man, aka "bahana" in Hopi, were now in such extreme violation of natural law and the instructions of the Great Spirit that Western technological/industrial society threatened all of humanity with the same apocalyptic fate that has met three previous worlds. Thomas Banyacya, Sr. was one of the messengers chosen to deliver the warnings and the positive call to action embedded in the Hopi Prophecy.

What's it like to see the world for the first time, with a fresh pair of eyes, from a completely different perspective? In this video, we'll be taking a look at one of the most profound films of the last several decades: Godfrey Reggio's experimental documentary and visual tone-poem 'Koyaanisqatsi' (1982). In order to understand what Reggio is trying to say through the film, we'll be examining the technical as well as contextual elements behind the project, particularly focusing on the influence of the Native American Hopi people and their mythology.

... and his posterity too? See  On Communication in Linear Time And Hypertext And The Gospel of Sophia . So it looks like El Cielo of the cistine [sic!😂] chapel is not the limit anymore.  I think I just met one of his descendents. A guy called Versailles Toledo who is from Chiapas. That might explain the murals I mention in my recent untitled post , just before the post mentioning this video. I also just took this photo of Rafael Gonzales, born here in Tecate, B.C., who told me about a spring near here called Agua Fría , half way from Tecate to Loma Tova , where, a few decades ago, people used to go to have barbecues and stuff, but now he thinks it may be private land. If someone reading this has a Facebook account, please write a link to this post onto his FB page. To see why I took the photo, look at his T-shirt and the horse-shoes and ponder this: Subscribe to BeatrizER and her video(s?) about mathematical logic, ...

This was in The Guardian: David Turner obituary , only eight days after I posted  David Turner Talking About Sixty Years of Functional Programming History : This talk was given in London in 2017: See  Turner, D. A. "Some History of Functional Programming Languages" also  John Hughes - Why Functional Programming Matters  and David MacQueen's talk at ICFP 2015 in  Numberphile - Sophie Maclean on the Catalan Numbers . At 10:30 This whole discussion abut combinator reduction is especially interesting. I didn't know Arthur Norman had tried building hardware for combinator machines. I'll look that up: maybe start here A.C. Norman  Faster combinator reduction using stock hardware  in LFP '88: Proceedings of the 1988 ACM conference on LISP and functional programming.
