SATOR 28 in. X 24 in. Mixed Media 2019 #art #artph #abstractart #vernonperez #mixedmedia #pilipinoartist #sator #prayer The Sator Square is the earliest dateable 2D palindrome. It was found in the ruins of Pompeii, at Herculaneum, a city buried in the ash of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. It consists of a sentence written in Latin: "Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas." The magic square is a prayer 19000 years ago. SATOR is GOD Pater Noster the Creator... The SUN AREPO is the Heaven Pater Noster who art in Heaven TENET Pater Noster that governs the universe OPERA the divine creation of GOD ROTAS is the cosmos Movement of the stars, the planets, the galaxies PATER NOSTER... Who art in Heaven... that govern the universe... That is your divine creation... With all the movement of the cosmos... LIBERA NOS A MALO https://www.instagram.com/p/BtverjFF4PP/?igshid=wdz41j0ahmyf

Table spoons drilled with almost a thousand small holes. It is handmade and can be custom fitted to the wearers head. It's an ancient technology called the pinhole. How pinholes function. Pinhole glasses (also known as stenopeic glasses from the Greek words for "little opening") are not made of glass at all but of an opaque substance such as metal or plastic. The user looks through any of the many small holes in the material. These holes have the effect of reducing the width of the bundle of diverging rays (called a "pencil of light") coming from each point on the viewed object. Normally, the full opening of the pupil admits light. It is the improper bending of the outermost rays in that pencil of light which causes refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia (farsightedness), presbyopia (diminished focusing range with age) and astigmatism to be noticeable. Pinholes can bring about clearer vision in all these conditions. By blocking these peripheral rays, and only letting into the eye those rays which pass through the central portion of the pupil, any refractive error in the lens or cornea is not noticed as much. The pupil may be wide open, but only the central portion is receiving light. The improvement in visual acuity can be striking. When the eye does not need to deal with the rays that would need the most bending since they are blocked by the lens. It is said that Scheiner first described this effect in 1573. Those who are familiar with cameras will recognize that this is the same principle used to increase the depth of focus by decreasing the aperture. Pinhole cameras also operate by this principle. https://www.instagram.com/p/BuXwOS6lYvb/?igshid=mr37d44uyp9z
