In its deepest applications, the Mayan Sacred Calendar (Model-[bold M]) may be regarded as a Galactic Synchronization Code. The Maya believe that to live in alignment with Its permutations and cyclical, symbolic Wisdom is to live in alignment with the One Giver of Movement/(Time) and Measure/(Space); i.e. Goddess/God/Consciousness. As such a Code, It is binary, and it gives rise to all other binary codes in nature; including DNA and the structure and communication of the human central nervous system. As such a Code, It is binary and algebraic; hence, It is computable. Indeed, It serves the Maya as an analog "chrono-computer" enabling them to live in such Harmony with Consciousness--personally and collectively--potentially crossing immeasurable spans of time. (They're the longest living civilization on Earth; still here, solidly maintaining their ancient sacred traditions after more than 4,000 years, without pause! Apparently, they're onto something!)
Each one of its cells is a discrete packet of Information. Hence, each Sequence within the Model expresses a string of Logical Information that DNA may be able to decode; perhaps also the human brain, regardless of a person's IQ. In the synchronization of a 13-step sub-Pattern with a 6-step sub-Pattern, there are 78 discrete exchanges of Information, (13 x 6 = 78). The full Synchronization Sequence of the Model and 7 of Its sub-Patterns that you'll experience in the below production Models is 12,480 discrete exchanges of Information. That's 12,480 unique configurations of 16 spheres coupled with 12,480 unique 16th chords [16-note chords]. When reduced to lowest common denominators of electromagnetic energy, sound and light, what that Information, or perhaps how that Information is Communicated, and what is being Communicated may be empirically determined. Seeking to empirically test that premise, the Model's cycles were translated/transposed into the sound and light spectra; then 8 of its sub-Patterns were synchronized at high speed, documenting the synchronicity of the Model and its sub-Patterns as it may naturally occur spanning 33 years, within 21 minutes. Below, you may experience the results of that transposition and production; (model descriptions included).

The Hypothesis Driving This Work:
Words and symbols may be interpreted in an unlimited number of ways; scientifically, those interpretations are immeasurable, in all human languages. Sound and light waves transcend all such interpretations; and they are measurable. Effectively, the driving hypothesis of this Work is embodied in Dr. Jose Arguelles' "Earth Ascending (An Illustrated Treatise on Law Governing Whole-Systems)"[PDF], and "The Mayan Factor (If you're looking for left brain data validating it, download and read that book--that pair is the literary Seed whence this Work grew. Then, download his "The Mayan Factor: Path Beyond Technology"; the fuel that became the fire powering this 39-year Journey.)
Earth Ascending graphically taught me how the entire universe is a single fractal Pattern, comprised of several interweaving and synchronizing subPatterns, and the Logic governing that Pattern, and the Flow of It as a whole, (as well as the Flow of all of its subPatterns), is embodied in both the I Ching and the Tzolk'in. (In his book, "DNA & the I Ching", Dr. Johnson Yan proved how the I Ching's Logic is identical to that of DNA.) The Mayan Factor taught me to see each "kin"/day as a tone--as soon as I read the word "tone" in that context, my composer mind thought, "What are the frequencies; I wanna hear them!" Translating the Model's 13 fundamental cycles as frequencies, [thanks to the invaluable * psychic * intervention of Foster Perry, and direct tutelage from the late Dr. Barbara Hero], then synchronously sequencing the Model's primary Patterns and Its sub-Patterns now enables rigorous empirical analysis of both books' core claims. Furthermore, it enables such analysis of the physiological, psychological, and psychic effects of using the Model's synchronized, sonochromatic expressions; as well as the potential for such expressions to enable the user to establish a direct, communicative, synaptic/neural link with Source/Consciousness throughout her/his/their central nervous system.
The Synchronization Sequence is hypothesized to produce hyperextensive synaptic activity through repeated exposure to its structured audiovisual patterns. I further hypothesize that simply watching or listening to it produces profound, fundamental cognitive enhancement. This claim is falsifiable.
The estimated synapse total should be interpreted as a combinatorial upper-bound estimate of potential pattern relationships, not as a direct estimate of newly formed biological synapses; it does not yet account for constraints such as the number of neurons recruited, firing rates, existing connectivity, synaptic turnover, or the distinction between transient neural activity and physically formed synapses.
To test these hypotheses, I have
developed extended sonochromatic expressions of
the Model. Having completed this work, I
believe the next step is formal empirical
testing—for instance, comparing HC-exposed
participants with appropriate control groups using
prespecified cognitive and neurophysiological
outcomes. Such experiments could provide evidence
either supporting or disconfirming the proposed
relationship between the Tzolk’in/Cholq’ij and the
permutations of the One Giver of Movement and
Measure attributed to it in Maya tradition.
This is one reason the research models below are being made freely available to the scientific community.

| h | This Ain't No Woo-Woo!
The above has a lot of heady info which may approach the cusp of Woo-woo for some of you. So, let's unpack and demystify it, before we move ahead; it's simple enough for elementary/primary school kids to grasp. In their lowest common denominator, these media are just basic, multi-modal pattern recognition modules. Like all such media, (be they digitized-chess, -Go, -Sudoku, or long videos of huge starling flocks flying), they're simply presenting complex patterns of logic. Repeated exposure to all complex patterns reliably generates new brain connections (synaptogenesis[<link]); which reliably increases brain capacity and capability, especially if the activity prompting the synaptogenesis is done for at least 3 consecutive days. From that perspective, the HC is primarily a passive audiovisual pattern-recognition and perceptual-learning intervention. Basically, no biggie. The defining differences between those pattern recognition systems, and the Model are the acute density of the sub-Patterns, the speed at which they change, (60x per second), and more importantly, the Nature of the Logic whence the Patterns arise. The Tzolk'in's logic is understood by the Maya to be THE Logic; i.e. Consciousness-Sourced and Consciousness- and Cosmos-sourcing Logic. If that's the case, then it should be scientifically testable. Making testing possible is the sole purpose of this Work; however, in the process of developing it, very remarkable, anecdotal therapeutic value was discovered; e.g. audio-only thereof use prompting complete, functional, post-stroke brain healing in fewer than one hundred twenty days--(it's medically documented; however, we don't have access to that data). Metaphysically, a very small control trial found users reaching what's best described as a sustained state of Samadhi; each participant experiencing that Consciousness shift on the 21st day of a 26-day listening course they independently began on different dates. The former occurred in 2007; the latter circa 1997--the first full shebang audio translation, enabling the 2007 results. We don't think a high-velocity, overhead view of a Go marathon, or making the starlings iridescent neon would prompt either of those outcomes.In real time synchrony, (i.e. if each frame in the Synchronization Sequence were 1 day, then) these modules span 33.2 years; waiting 100 years just to perceive the most basic patterns of that synchronicity is a civilization thing; not a contemporary scientist thing. We compressed that harmonic time tracking into 3.5 minutes; that's doable--that's these, with six repetitions, each with unique visual configuration; enabling super-massively robust thereof scientific analysis. Mayan science is both deeply analytical and mystical because it doesn't separate intuition from intellect the way the European scientific method proudly parades. These modules enable the psychoneuroactive properties of traditional Mayan, time-oriented, algebra-centric science and mysticism to be empirically tested. Who will test them? |

The Harmonic Tzolk'in/Cholq'ij
Prototype Description
[The introduction to the Prototype is a micro-tutorial about the Cholq'ij and the structure of how it's expressed as sound and light.]
Harmonic Tzolk'in/Cholq'i (the Model) is a sound and light (sonochromatic) expression of the Mayan Sacred Calendar. It was initially inspired by José Argüelles', "The Mayan Factor: Path Beyond Technology". (Although its reputation has been slighted by some academics and Maya elders regarding it as tantamount to "Maya-Pop", it and Dr. Argüelles’s first book expounding upon the Maya, "Earth Ascending (An Illustrated Treatise on Law Governing Whole-Systems)", are very astute, logical dissections of the Tzolk'in's inner workings. Those 2 books have had the most influence in the development of this Work.)
Overview of The Mayan Factor...
The Mayan Factor is a significant work authored by José Argüelles, published in 1987. The book dissects the Mayan calendar to determine its broader implications for human transformation and cosmic consciousness. It introduces several key concepts:
"Key Concepts Concept Description
Human Transformation: The book suggests a significant moment of transformation is
approaching.
Galactic Synchronization: Argüelles describes a 'Galactic Synchronization Beam' that can
awaken consciousness.
New Cosmic Consciousness: It serves as a guide to understanding a new perspective on time and existence. This book has been influential in the New Age movement, encouraging readers to explore their connection to the universe and the cyclical nature of time.
Core claim: The Maya encoded a 'harmonic' cosmic time system; understanding it can shift human consciousness from linear, mechanistic time to cyclical, galactic-synchronized time.
Calendar focus: Argüelles centers on the Tzolk'in (260-day sacred count) and the Long Count, proposing a galactic synchronization culminating in a transformative era (he linked this to 2012 as a symbolic transition).
Key event: He helped organize the 1987 Harmonic Convergence — a worldwide meditation/ritual aimed at aligning human consciousness with planetary cycles.
Themes: Spiritual/psychic evolution, syncretism of Mesoamerican cosmology with New Age ideas, planetary healing, and the concept of 'galactic timing'.
Influence: Popularized Neopagan/New Age interest in the Maya and 2012, inspired festivals, artists, and alternative archaeology circles.
Criticisms and cautions: Scholars of Mesoamerican history and archaeology generally reject Argüelles’s claims as speculative, anachronistic, and not supported by primary Maya texts or inscriptions; his work mixes modern mysticism with selective readings of Maya calendar data."

The
Harmonic Tzolk'in/Cholq'ij
Research Model
V. n.1 Description
(Download pending)
The Mayan Sacred Calendar (Model)
may be regarded as a table embodying the
permutations of a Universal Consciousness Code.
In that context, the Code is binary, and it may
be expressed in simple numeric Sequences, or in
sound and/or light Sequences. The Harmonic
Tzolk'in/Cholq'ij (HC) is a "sonochromatic"
(sound+light) expression of 8 of the HC's
subSequences, synchronized.
The Model's movement is bilateral; the
audio is binaural. There is guidance about that
in the playback, shortly before the
Synchronization Sequence begins.
The Sequence was rendered using very short audio
samples, to accommodate up to 160fps while still
being discrete (completely individual). When the
HC is rendered with 30%+ of a subtle reverb
setting, it sounds like water; (see the Prototype for an
example). Therefore, the Consumer version of
this Research Model is rendered with the
sound of flowing water. However, the reverb on
this (and the Consumer Model), is
minimal; only enough to just barely connect the
discrete sounds to each other; as the fade of
one reaches the full pulse of the next, there's
less than 10% of it still audible.)
If you'd like a more in-depth understanding
about the HC, watch the Prototype, which has a
decently long explanatory introduction, (and
a much longer Sync Sequence).
_________________________________________________________
Some Questions to be Answered:
1) What happens in
the user's brain during listening only?
2) What happens in the user's brain during
watching only?
3) What happens in the user's brain experiencing
Synchronization
Sequence bisensorally?
4) During the course of the Sequence, the
binaural left and right channels swap sides, and
then switch again; how is
that shift represented in the user's central
nervous system?
5) How does the Vagus Nerve respond to the
Sequence?
6)
How does DNA respond to the Sequence?
7) [A] After each of the above usage modes, what
happens in the user's brain when
post-experiential body movement is prohibited
for the duration of the Sync Sequence; and
[B] what's the difference
when intentional, bilateral movement is engaged
for the duration of the Sync Sequence, (or for a
minimum duration of 10 minutes, e.g. dancing,
walking, yoga...)?
8) How does the user's ability to perceive
non-physical reality via "the Clairs",
i.e. clairvoyance, clairaudiance,
clairsentience, general intuition after using
the Model for 3 sessions; 1 per day, on
3 consecutive days? After 7 days? After 13 days?
After 23 days? -- What about
doubling and tripling that usage frequency; how
do those values change with those increases?
9)
Considering the preceding question, and
extending the investigation to Drosophila
melanogaster, do exposed flies exhibit
measurable changes in DNA sequence, DNA damage,
or epigenetic state after 3, 7, 13, or 23 days,
compared with baseline measurements and matched
unexposed controls? (Relevant endpoints could
include sequence variation, DNA damage, DNA
methylation, chromatin accessibility, and
gene-expression profiles.)
10) What other correlations are found in the
user's post-experience brain state with brain
states consistent with specific, strong,
positive emotions, such those experienced after
positive activity, e.g. having an epiphany, a
sacred ritual, or ceremony, a roller coaster
ride, cuddling with a pet...?
11) Is there empirical evidence that the assumed
Universal Consciousness Code actually affects a
synchronization of the user's consciousness with
Love?; i.e. a causal alignment of the user's
central nervous system with brain states
consistent with the user feeling, and/or
self-identifying as Divine Love?
12) [A] How does using the Research Model v. n.1
differ from using the Consumer Model?
[B] How does it differ from
using the Research Model v. n.0?
[C] Are the differences
between using Research Model v.
n.1 and Research Model v.
n.0 the same as
those between Research Model v.
n.0 and the Consumer Model?^
^
_________________________________________________________

Other than the addition of the water, the Research Model v.
n.1 and the Consumer Model are the
same. So, if you're using this for your own
cognitive enhancement, (e.g. brain fog
reduction), you may find you receive more
benefit by using one rather than the other.

This Model is particularly for people who'd like to scientifically research the HC's therapeutic potential and properties. The best way to do so is with totally clean audio data. There are no audio effects applied in this Model; it's the raw audio data in perfect sync with the same video playback as the above 2 production models.
effective in enabling functional mobility [e.g. van driving] during
intense Chronic Fatigue Syndrome experiences;
(when the user would have otherwise been bedridden).
The audio track of the HC, alone, may be very
remarkably effective in post-stroke brain restoration.
The full use of the HC may significantly accelerate that effect.
Advance Sonochromatic Tzolk'in/Cholq'ij Research
The primary reason the MERE Project was established as a charitable trust (in 1987) was to enable funding of scientific research of the sonically translated Tzolk'in. [The sonochromatic translations crudely began 5 years later.] The Trust's being able to do so entirely depends on public and private tax-deductible donations to advance that research. With AI, we are able to directly advance it, rather than needing to secure hundreds of thousands of dollars of research funding to foot the costs of established labs doing so. We'd like to do that believing our findings will be too compelling to professional scientists for a small group of them to avoid conceiving and performing experiments with these media.
Securing a laptop to most efficiently run the LLMs we have selected for our research is our top funding priority. Both the Dell XPS 16 (with Ultra X9 Processor 388H) ($3200) and the Apple MacBook Pro (16-inch) ($3600) will handle the Trust's compute challenge for this research. The Mac will require many multiples less customization time, and they're more reliable than PCs, so that's our preference; (in our experience, Dell has been the most reliable PC, an excellent second choice). If you'd like to assist us by helping us to secure either of those computers, you may use the below button or QR code to do so.

Facilitating Outside Research Projects As Fiduciary
Otherwise, if you're interested in funding someone's HC research, however, you're needing a completely tax-deductible way of doing so that also gives you the right to say how the money's spent, the Trust is fine serving as a fiduciary of those funds. You donate the funds, you dictate the terms, and the Trust will distribute those funds according to those terms; our 501(c)(3) status granting you full tax deduction for your funding. Easy peasy! (The only caveat is those terms must align with the federal laws of the United States of America.)

*** The green subPattern within the 64-unit Core subPattern is actually 2 subPatterns; a "di-Pattern". (As abovementioned), one is the 6 inner kin/cells on both sides of the Mystic Column. Their behavior looks like pistons. The other is the 16 kin forming the di-Pattern's perimeter; (developerspeak,) the "core diamond". Its behavior looks like a binary star orbit, as a pair of diametrically complementary spheres transits that circuit 4x each second. Visually, as they synchronize, the di-Pattern most resembles the movement of a dynamo. (Can you isolate and see it in the mix?)
++ The perception of the Tzolk'in as a Galactic Synchronization Code was popularized in the late-20th century by Dr. José Argüelles (Valum Votan), via his game, "Dreamspell". Actually, that book wasn't intended to be a game, however, (as he told this author), the first printing of the book had progressed too far without his approval of the final copy before it went to press to make the drastic changes that would have been necessary to conform the end product to his intentions. He was viscerally disappointed and saddened about that; and he was powerless to stop that capitalistic momentum. So, with all the popularity and contempo-culture adoption of it, as far as he was concerned, the world effectively got seasoned sh** instead of the souffle he'd actually crafted. Nonetheless, there are fertile nuggets in Dreamspell, and the core principles and functionality of the Model are intact in it, and Light slips through the cracks of what constitutes illusion within it, so the game is an effective way of learning the basics of how to use the Model on a daily basis. The Dreamspell's fatal flaw is its thematic complexity; it shifts the study and assimilation of Mayan Wisdom from the heart to the head; with a critically high probability of resonantly subduing everyone who's adopted it.]
José was lambasted for teaching his perceptions of the Tzolk'in because of that debacle. Nevertheless, he was spot on about the Tzolk'in being a Harmonic Code, as evidenced by this Work; and perhaps also about It affecting holistic synchronicity across multiple, or all scales. His perception of the Model being a harmonic lattice has been unequivocally validated by this Work; effectively vindicating him, in that regard. Although the MERE Project hasn't advanced any research of Its potential therapeutic properties, the architecture of the HC adheres to clinical practices; so, we are certainly able to validly claim users are very likely to experience very remarkable cognitive enhancement with each HC session; (see the below academic resources for peer-review documentation supporting that claim, a lot of which is embodied in the HC's actual architecture).
Do these sonochromatic expressions of the Model also validate loftier theories of the Code also affecting synchronicity and union of the personal mind with the Divine Mind? Using these media, that's now falsifiable. Who will research that?
