TransOpt Call Received: 2-19-98

After watching the Original 'Matrix' movie for the zillionth time, I stumbled upon something. The original telephone conversation between Trinity and Cypher is logged on the date 2-19-98. With obviously nothing better to do with my life I did a random Google search on the significance, if any, of those numbers. On the first page of hits I saw this listing, followed it to..

cse.ucsc.edu...


and found an interesting little page that could be a Wachowski lead, or not. You be the judge.

"Recursion is what we call it when a function calls itself
When a function calls itself it is exactly the same as if it called a different function, except the other function being called is the same as the one doing the calling, but

Note: the local objects have the same name, but
are actually different objects
So, what's the big deal with recursion?
It's a fairly simple idea
It is extremely powerful
It greatly simplifies some programming problems

The basic idea is that you specify an anchor, or trivial case that explicitly defines the function for some trivial value.
Specify an inductive or non-trivial case, that defines the function in terms of the parameters and the value of other simpler calls to the function. "


Recursion could be a powerful tool to a serious programmer, such as the Architect?

Yeah that page is maybe a little related to the Matrix in a way but I would think that date is more personal than that....maybe somebodys birthday or something....soemthing personal to the W. Brothers that is

but get this.... Some scientists believe that the Matrix could be real 4 show because it would be fairly simple to write it with just 1's and 0's....and If you don't believe me then too bad cause i can't show this to you because i read it in an Icelandic ''Nerd'' magazine and have alot of them and I have to idea in wich mag I read this....


but you have my word for it...wich is almost as good Thumbup

The date was relevant, but not in that way.

I can't recall the reason of the top of my head, but it was either someone's birthday, or a significant date in production.

It's certainly close to when they started filming it.

From IMDB.COM

Quote:

Filming Dates: March 1998 - August 1998

and

Quote:

Before filming, the principal actors spent four months with martial arts experts learning the fight moves, from October 1997 to March 1998. The actors had originally thought that it would take just a few weeks.

It was just a trivial thing that I thought was worth a little research.

I just found it a cool coincidence that I found a hit with that specific content. Especially the part where it says:
"..the local objects have the same name, but are actually different objects.."
as in 'NEO' and the 'ONE'.

Symbolism and coinicidence, whatever. I just thought it was worth a post to see if Agent Zero could be baited into a response. Cool

Hmmm, that is interesting....NEO=ONE....neverheard of it....just kidding. seriously nice find. Thumbup

and i can always be baited into a response. 3Tooth

One of the Wachowski brother's wife's birthday. Probably Andy's wife considering how badly Larry is getting on with his.

The strongest defense for the fact that the end of M1 happens after M3 is that he is confident and can feel the matrix. Now remember in Reloaded, Neo can feel not only Smith but the other agents when they come. He is very confident. Only when he is in the real world, Zion, is he unconfident and slow to react. Only after his visit with the Arc is he able to get the ability to feel the machines like he does in the matrix.

There is absolutly no inconsistancy between M1 and M2.

There's only one um, and that's fuck 'um.

UP THE IRONS.

(mandelbrot) fractals are plotted simple recursive functions

Actually, the fractal pattern of the orange stuff inside the orange explosion in the beginning of M3 looks like Mandelbrot fractals which is simply x-y plots (is that the word?) of pretty simple recursive functions. (The x-y is the complex plane, and the function are so called complex functions).

Most probably a lot of stuff in the Matrix are fractal generated, just like landscapes are fractal generated in computer games.

9.18 significances

deja vu... Now, I realize this thread started as '2.19', but the birthday thing came up, and that's actually 9.18. I have found some interesting stuff related to that. I did this before, a while back.... I can't remember where or when, and I don't feel like looking for the post, and since I have the stuff saved on my hard drive, I'll just post it again, here. Aaah, is there anything better than to post here and to drink something

18.Sep.1999 (September being the 9th month)
Neo speaks to the Matrix System (phone booth), hangs up and flies away
Marginal note: 18.Sep is the birthday of Andy Wachowski's wife Alisa Blasingame. (source:

matrix-explained.com...
website, somewhere....)

There is another 9.18: Neo is awoken late by his alarm at 9:18.

It could be a Bible verse; we've seen before how that works.... Here are some possible candidates:

Dan9:18

"O my God, incline Your ear and hear! Open Your eyes and see our desolations and the city which is called by Your name; for we are not presenting our supplications before You on account of any merits of our own, but on account of Your great compassion.

The Book of Daniel is good for The Matrix, because of its connections with Morpheus. Daniel interpreted dreams; Morpheus was a Greek god of dreams; in the Enter The Matrix video game, the “answering machine” for the Nebuchadnezzar (Morpheus’ ship, and a character in The Book of Daniel) has Morpheus’ voice claiming the “Daniel School of Dream Interpretation.” (This passage is from Daniel’s Prayer For His People; two verses later, “Gabriel Brings an Answer” begins. It is reminiscent of what happens in Revolutions.)

...But this is the one I like the best:

Jer9:18(-19!)

18
"Let them make haste and take up a wailing for us,
That our eyes may shed tears
And our eyelids flow with water.
19
"For a voice of wailing is heard from Zion,
'How are we ruined!
We are put to great shame,
For we have left the land,
Because they have cast down our dwellings.'"

THIS is a good one! The very next scene shows the soapy water falling like the matrix code down the windows, “flowing with water.” As we see that Neo was late for work, we may assume that he “made haste” to get there! The next verse’s reference to Zion is eerie! ...It's a neat coincidence, at the least.

I went through a bunch of other 'chapter 9, verse 18's' in the Bible when researching this the first time. Most of them are dead ends, some are unremarkable, and a very few are even possibly relevant. Therefore, I won't bother with them here. Smile

Much to learn, I still have.
