I want to give you a freedom exceedingly difficult to achieve in the age in which you live, in the limited time of a life, by your own means. This freedom requires you understand the world in which you live, the written history of mankind. To imagine the odds you must look into space. Get a telescope and excel in your math class. Realize a universe as infinitely small as it is big, ponder it to great lengths, and who's judge of where big becomes little, that science and religion are one and the same.
I'd like to make an assertion that there is inscribed in all things a universal language recognized by few. This universal language is all around us, in place now in the glyphic language of images.
The quantity and quality of readily available evident information stored in images is taken for granted, overlooked, and not taken seriously. It is now necessary to make an addendum to the learning process and expand the way we think to institute methods of higher learning, since we are learning machines and definitely have the capacity. Every vista we will ever see contains immeasurable amounts of information.
The capability of the human intellect to understand is vastly superior to the means currently available to learn. Great insufficiency exist in today's written languages rendering them obsolete in this age of information. There are 26 letters in the English alphabet. This method of communication allows the masses to understand one another and the world to function, but is extremely basic. 26 letters are far too few. Complacency is a great danger.
Peace in the world demands that we better ourselves with a greater knowledge base. An intelligent species must abolish poverty, disease, and greedy little men, all of which profit from ignorance. We need be far better stewards of our wonderful planet, expand our compassion beyond our ambitions and close social groups, to encompass the whole of understanding, see the big beautiful picture.
I want you to build a new alphabet. Yes you. You have been called.
That's what the rocks say.
