HAS anyone looked into something called the LAMBDOMA MATRIX ?
It is, apparently...
"The Lambdoma Matrix is attributed to the philosopher Pythagoras (500 bc)
who spent over
twenty years as an Egyptian initiate. The concept of the Lambdoma Matrix
in the present age is
relatively unknown, and is not cited in most dictionaries. On the surface,
it appears to be
nothing more than a mathematical multiplication and division table. On a
closer look however,
it bears a one-to-one relationship to musical intervals in a very specific
harmonic series.
Because of its numerical framework of ratios, it can be translated into
frequencies of audible
sound. The Lambdoma bears relationships to aromatics, chemistry,
crystallography,
cybernetics, art, music, geometry, all of which may be explored by those
interested in the above
disciplines."
I have visited a website about it run by the "International Lambdoma
Research Institute", which, I suspect, is a group trying to establish some
sort of income generating activity from their hobby or interest. However,
whatever the reason, it sounds (pun intended) very interesting and I think
that a knowledge of various frequency relationships is critical to
understanding of Keely et al.

It's a pity a lot of the "scientific" relevance to gravity and energy is
totally ignored by those running the site - they seem to be looking at the
music-art aspects of Pythagorian mathematics (and how a Ms Barbara Hero can
sell her pythagoras/lambdoma art.)
Another page
http://www.mind.net/maps/htmla/hero.htm
has information about a Lambdona keyboard.
Does anyone here have the keyboard??? Anyone know what it can be used for?
Thanks all, and may the force be with you...

PS:Jerry, thanks for that post on Edgar Cayce - fascinating. I've tried to
track down the 1929 book on 'vibrations' that it quotes (by Henry Holt -
the English version). Unfortnately no luck. The American Henry Holt wrote a
couple of books on Psychic phenomina about the same time, so that muddied
the waters a little. Oh well, I'll just have to keep the eyes and ears open.
