Part of the series, A Foundation for Biblical Hebrew

Mesopotamia—the land between rivers—lay cradled by the Tigris and Euphrates, in what is today Iraq, and parts of Syria, Iran and Turkey. It is here, over 5000 years ago, that humanity began to write, to measure, to shape the world with thought made material.

 

Often called the cradle of civilisation, Mesopotamia gave rise to the first known cities, legal codes, poetry, and trade networks. But perhaps most quietly revolutionary: it was here that time was made. The division of hours into 60 minutes, of days into structured ritual and celestial rhythm, stems from the Sumerians’ sexagesimal system. They watched the stars and counted the breath between shadow and light.

 

It was not a single civilisation, but many: Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Assyrians—each layering knowledge upon the next. And though temples and empires rose and fell, it was the everyday—the shaping of clay, the weaving of linen, the counting of grain—that endured. Culture, here, was not a luxury. It was a way of surviving beautifully.

 

In Mesopotamia, humans became makers of meaning.

Not through conquest. But through pattern. Through form. Through time.

 

“Kiln Songs”

 

They did not know

they were building the spine

of centuries.

 

A kiln in a courtyard—

a cracked bowl resting

like a sleeping moon.

 

Laughter braided through fingers

as slip met skin.

 

Clothes not tailored, but grown—

colours whispered

from plants, ash, and river bones.

 

They spun stories not in language,

but in glaze,

in fringe,

in the swing of a hip

on market mornings.

 

Their world had no history yet—

just movement.

Just clay that remembered the hand

that touched it.

 

River bends her mouth—

hands shape bowls from silt and song.

Dust listens, still warm.

 

Fringes catch the breeze—

girls in linen, laughing light.

Time forgets their names.

 

Before stone knew form,

before breath turned into text,

she danced, shaping flame.

UNICODE 5.1.0 meets Or-Omcode∞.1.0

Unicode represents the Tower ob Babel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel In computing, Unicode is an industry standard allowing computers to consistently represent and manipulate text expressed in most of the world's writing systems. Developed in tandem with the Universal Character Set standard and published in book form as The Unicode Standard, Unicode consists of a repertoire of more than 100,000 characters, a set of code charts for visual reference, an encoding methodology and set of standard character encodings, an enumeration of character properties such as upper and lower case, a set of reference data computer files, and a number of related items, such as character properties, rules for normalization, decomposition, collation, rendering and bidirectional display order (for the correct display of text containing both right-to-left scripts, such as Arabic or Hebrew, and left-to-right scripts). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UniCode

Or-Omcode∞.1.0 represents a new Universal Language de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universalsprache derived within the Doctine Of Essense by

So, there is a bit of an Irish language revival going on, at least in policy, if not in practice. I haven't heard and spoken Irish beyond slainte, aside from a few phrases some dude tried to teach me in a bar, but it is prominent on many signs.So, there is a bit of an Irish language revival going on, at least in policy, if not in practice.

The habs have done something awful that they haven't done since 1948, they got shutout 3 games in a row this week. The Buffalo Sabres, Boston Bruins, and Washington Capitals all had their way with the habs, who have been out scored 11-0 over those 3 games. They have back to back games this Tuesday and Wednesday as well, their record for back to back games is not great either, it's a rough time to be a habs fan.

 

Luckily I have had some great distractions from the habbies this weekend. A few friends and I were down at The Ship tonight while Joanna Barker and Dead Language were followed by the Hunter Gatherers. It was another great night for music and a great night to distract me from the habs' woes.

Badu Gili — meaning ‘water light’ in the language of the traditional owners of Bennelong Point, the Gadigal people — is a free daily experience that explores ancient First Nations stories in a spectacular seven-minute projection. They illuminate the Opera House’s eastern Bennelong sail year..

The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre at Sydney Harbour in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is one of the 20th century's most famous and distinctive buildings.

 

Address: Bennelong Point, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia

Construction started: March 2, 1959

 

Founded: 1973

 

Architect: Jørn Utzon

 

Sydney Opera House sits on Bennelong Point. Bennelong Point was named after Woollarawarre Bennelong, a senior Eora man at the time of the arrival of British colonisers in Australia in 1788.

 

The original cost estimate to build Sydney Opera House was $7 million. The final cost was $102 million and it was largely paid for by a State Lottery.

 

233 designs were submitted for the Opera House international design competition held in 1956. Jørn Utzon from Denmark was announced the winner, receiving ₤5000 for his design.

Construction was expected to take four years. It took 14 years. Work commenced in 1959 and involved 10,000 construction workers.

  

Sydney Opera House was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List in 2007

 

There are more than 1 million roof tiles covering approximately 1.62 hectares sitting over the structure. They were made in Sweden.

 

Seven A380s could sit wing-to-wing on the site.

 

Sydney Opera House was opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 20th October, 1973. She has since visited four times, most recently in 2006.

Sydney, capital of New South Wales and one of Australia's largest cities, is best known for its harbourfront Sydney Opera House, with a distinctive sail-like design. Massive Darling Harbour and the smaller Circular Quay port are hubs of waterside life, with the arched Harbour Bridge and esteemed Royal Botanic Garden nearby. Sydney Tower’s outdoor platform, the Skywalk, offers 360-degree views of the city and suburbs.

 

Area: 4,775 mi²

 

Founded: January 26, 1788

 

Population: 5.23 million (2018)
