Emerge Art, Celestial Mechanics and the Madeleine McCann Mystery





FRANÇAIS app de traduction à gauche

The Sabian Symbol for the day of her disappearance. The
kidnapper probably noticed her on a beach playing.
EMERGE ART

• In August 2014 I did two Emerge Art studies where I wrote this question for water: Where will we find Madeleine McCann? She is the young British girl that was kidnapped from her bed in Praia da Luz, a resort in the Algarve region of Portugal on May 3rd 2007. 

• I had just experienced an amazing breakthrough in my burgeoning practice of photographing the behavior of water in a bowl I placed in different installations. I had observed that water reacted to books and to words with totally relevant responses. I immediately did an exhibition in April 2014: Emerge Art with the book « Extrême: Esthétiques de la limite dépassée » de Paul Ardenne / Flammarion  in which I noticed amazing phenomena as water reacted to the content of the pages. I used the same approach to see what would happen when I asked water such a grave question as finding a missing child. I focused on Maddie because the file was so public I thought I could maybe find links between what water did and facts that were revealed in the news. I did the experiment seven years after she disappeared and I am looking at it again because of the documentary The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann on Netflix that reviews this case that attracted world wide attention. I published a rough study in 2014.

• My transdisciplinary art practice is centered around my equation for the Theory Of Everything (TOE): ( E = MC 2 / RF + G = T + S ) . As I test the equation, I document how the macrocosm operates with the microcosm. In this article, I will share more of the Emerge Art of August 2014 where water is asked about where to find Maddie. Below are some images I found revealing. I also did an analysis of the Alignment Geometries of Celestial Mechanics that were at work during the events, more on that below.

Click on the images to see them bigger.

The above photographs were taken August 7 2014 with a delay of 30 seconds in between each of them. I see two forms acting on each other and one of them manifested in the glass instead of the water. On the photos below you can see how a menacing male face appears in the upper left corner of the bowl. On the bottom, the image morphs like a distorted artwork from sleeping baby on the left, strangled in the center and dead on the right. © Lena Ghio, 2019
The white dots surround the bizarre face manifesting in glass. It is at its most complete in the center and looks like a clown on the photo on the right. What is it a metaphor for? Did the man pretend to play with her? Is he known by everyone but wearing a mask? © Lena Ghio, 2019
I did a composite using different tones to verify what was happening in the water. To me the sequence reveals a child strangled to death at some point. Tragically there are some men who have done this to the most beautiful of our children. This happens over and over on our planet. Some perpetrators have been " respected" members of society.

This image was taken on the same day as the above ones. It is one of a sequence that looks just as hectic as this one except that this one made me think of an adult throwing a child overboard. Click on the image and see the feature highlighted by the dots on the right. We get a sense of the seashore, waves, boulders and a boat. The motif of the boat is repeated many times in the total number of photos I took. © Lena Ghio, 2019 
These two photographs were taken on August 9 2014. We get a very clear motif of a man who is well built wearing glasses, a blue shirt with red accessories. Interestingly the shirt and accessories also look like a boat seen from above. The image evokes one of the first suspects in the investigation, Robert Murat,  who was exonerated of all charges. Strangely the image also evokes his associate Sergey Malakov who was also a suspect that is now exonerated. The last image on the upper right, see arrow, evokes one of the suspect sketches below. © Lena Ghio, 2019 
The suspects: Robert Murat, Sergey Malakov - both exonerated: police sketch of suspects never identified. 
charts are from Astro.com

CELESTIAL MECHANICS

• I did the study starting from the birthdate information I found on Astrotheme.  With this data, I found a perfect signature for the events that followed. The charts are from Astro.com where you can find a lot of information on the meanings of planets, signs and houses.

• I focused on 4 charts to obtain the signature of the crime: 1) Maddie's date of birth, 2) the day of arrival of the family in Portugal, 3) her Lunar Return that occurred April 29, and 4) the moment close to her disappearance. 

• 1) Her birth chart contains several clues as to the events that unfolded. The first that strikes me is the almost exact square between Mercury and Neptune. This is a signature of fog and mystery. Not only was her disappearance a mystery, the investigation by police in the resort village was a shameful disaster. See the Netflix special for details. Neptune is conjoined with Mars and together they square Mercury. That is a tragic signature of children victims of sex crimes and violence. To add to the effect, her birth chart contains the signature of a death abroad: lord of the 9th house ( Mercury ruler of Gemini ) in house 7 and in evil aspect ( Mars conjunct Neptune square Mercury). Neptune rules over kidnappings. Venus the ruler of Taurus, her birth sign, is in Aries that is ruled by Mars. Both Taurus and Aries rule the throat and head. The Emerge Art suggests strangulation. Finally, where Mercury represents a young child Mars conjunct Neptune in Aquarius describes a very vile type of person, one with a dissolute lifestyle afflicted with drug addictions and other destructive behaviors. 

• 2) The day of the family's arrival in Portugal Neptune has advanced to square her native Sun. That is the signature of a mysterious event with a lot of confusion but one that people are mesmerized by. We cannot look away from this crime that will forever be tough to prove because of all the mismanagements in the beginning of the investigation that left the criminal ample time to destroy all evidence of his implication in the tragedy. What is obvious in this chart is a formidable T-square implicating Venus opposing Jupiter T-square Mars approaching an exact conjunction to Uranus. Mars and Uranus feature prominently in the birth charts of many victims of violence, murder and assassination. John Lennon for example was born with a conjunction of Mars and Neptune in favorable aspect to Uranus. In spite of his great achievements, he was assassinated for no good reason! The approaching conjunction of Mars to Uranus on the day of their arrival is bringing together the elements of the horror about to manifest.

• 3) Maddie's Lunar Return occurred April 29th 2007 at the precise moment Mars and Uranus are conjoined in the 12th house of secret enemies. The 12th house also represents the bed where you sleep. Here the story is amazingly precise: Jupiter that is richly implicated in the T-square is in the 8th house of the Lunar Return and rules the 8th, the 9th and the 12th house. In other words death(8) and disappearance(12) in a foreign land(9). Her misfortune is associated with acquaintances of her family. Her disappearance occurred while her parents were having supper with acquaintances. The abductor is represented by Mars conjunct Uranus: he is impulsive, sly, filled with aggressivity. The combining of the exact conjunction at the moment of her Lunar Return singles her out from other children the pervert may have been observing.

• 4) The moment Maddie is discovered missing, the Sun and Mercury are combust in an exact conjunction to her native Mercury that signals a death abroad (see in 1)  and square to her natal Mars conjunct Neptune. The latter is a signature for a thief, a hard and mean person. When the Sun is in very close conjunction with a planet, he "burns" the qualities of that planet. The conjunction of Sun and Mercury occurs in the 6th house and her natal Mars conjunct Neptune falls in the 3rd house of that moment. Interestingly Mars is in her 4th house at birth and in the 4th house at the time of her abduction. That means the end of things, a hotel by the sea. My first impression was that the man who abducted her was a seasonal employee ( her Mars conjunct Neptune falling in house 3, a short trip ) of the hotel ( house 6 ) who targeted Maddie and knew the routines of the parents because he worked at the resort. I believe she was killed rapidly and disposed of in the ocean by boat.

CONCLUSION

• I came upon Emerge Art by pure accident. Since then I have documented many astonishing results. Just write Emerge Art in the search link on the blog to see more. What I showed you in this article is very primitive but I did the experiment because if one day it can become a tool for finding missing children it would have been well worth the effort. Because I am a seeker of knowledge I theorized adding water to the Artificial Intelligence technology would be an incredible tool to solve problems and create solutions. Of course that is not how AI is used by our greedy culture. Anyway the seed is planted it will be up to people of the future to take it further.

• The astrological section of the analysis is part of my ongoing interest in understanding how Celestial Mechanics and Gravity affect human life.

Disclaimer: This article is about an ongoing research leading to new possible knowledge in a discreet  field that is my transdisciplinary art practice. The results shown here may or may not apply to the ongoing investigation in the Madeleine McCann case in a pragmatic way. I was testing Emerge Art's ability to respond in a practicable way to an impossible question. The horoscope study, which I prefer to view from the perspective of how Celestial Mechanics and Gravity affect our lives, show that there must be many elements that must come to bear on a final decision as to the meaning of planetary position and movement in the solar system. In this case we see what I have observed often, there is a significant build-up on a well-drawn trajectory of alignments that were unfavorable to the entire McCann family.

THE HUMMINGBIRD PROJECT

TRAILER  
The latest Kim Nguyen movie staring Jesse EisenbergAlexander SkarsgårdSalma Hayek  takes us on a whirlwind adventure into high tech and high finance intrigue where every millisecond counts. Vincent Zaleski (Jesse Eisenberg) enrolls his genius cousin Anton Zaleski (Alexander Skarsgård) in a scheme that would galvanize Wall Street and make them wealthy: the fastest cable connection to deliver market information a few milliseconds faster than any existing cable. The story takes us through the many levels of government, manual labor, geography and more that must be dealt with to achieve the monumental task of passing the cable from one destination to the next.  Salma HayekT is Eva Torres, the tough business woman who will do everything to block the Zaleskis's project. The story is fast paced and exciting but what I found beautiful is the evolution of Eisenberg's character Vincent Zaleski, who faces a crisis that gives him just enough time to re-evaluate the important things of life. In this sense, the movie becomes relevant to the most serious questions facing humanity now, how to balance the economy and ecology?

Jean-Pierre Larocque @ 1700 LA POSTE

Jean-Pierre Laroque @ 1700 LA POSTE © Lena Ghio, 2019 
FRANÇAIS app de traduction à gauche

Montage & details by Lena Ghio 
• The first impression I got when I walked in 1700 LA POSTE for the Jean-Pierre Laroque exhibition was that of being in an antiquities exhibition like we see at civilization museums. What appear to be busts, equines and characters sculptures look like they have just been dug out of an archeological site. It is a once strongly familiar and equally alien. You have the impression the objects are made of a stained ochre marble. They are actually made of clay and baked into fine ceramic pieces of intricate and fascinating details.

• Jean-Pierre Laroque is a soft spoken man that is easy to talk with. He has had a very individualistic journey as an artist and he is better known internationally than here in Montreal where he has exhibited only a few times.

• I screened the Bruno Boulianne documentary about the artist Jean-Pierre Larocque Le Fusain et L'Argile. In the movie the artist talks about his private life, we see him in his atelier creating and people who collaborated with him through the years reveal even more about the man, his life and his work. He loves humble materials like clay, chalk and charcoal, ink and paper. He approach his medium with abandon and spontaneity and it is magical to observe how his spirit moves from one idea to the next as he adds or erases the materials that will reveal a completed piece. The film, sponsored by La Fondation Internationale Isabelle de Mévius,  will be projected until June 23 2019 @ 1700 LA POSTE starting on Wednesday through Sunday between 11:00 AM and 6:00 PM. 



• His spontaneous drawings surround us throughout the exhibition. Mostly they are black and white multidimensional images that again transcend a specific epoch. The exhibition is also accompanied by a catalog featuring a foreword by Isabelle de Mévius and essays by David Elliott and Edward Lebow.

• Meanwhile the 37th International Festival of Films on Art has begun this week and will have a few presentations of the movie. In

Montreal on March 22 and 30, and in Quebec on March 23 at 4:00 PM.

HOW TO MASTER THE STARS • Healing Nature Challenge • phase 3

Spirit checks-in, © Lena Ghio 2019
• FRANÇAIS app de traduction à gauche

• To review of the basis of the challenge, go to this link.

• The above image was taken on February 23, 2019. It had been more than 5 months since I had done an Emerge Art study. I am getting more precise about how to photograph the best jumps the elements take in water to create images we can relate to but that are beyond refraction. I was happy to spot a few jumps in the last series of photos I took. There is a jump on the left but I will let you spot it. The point is that Emerge Art proves that our interactions with nature, with our environment, have an effect on it. I have demonstrated over and over that water reacts to art in particular.

• What I am sharing in this article is the way art collaborates to the creation of our perceived world and helps us make discoveries from elements that appear unrelated. When I made exhibition proposals I would always explain that I use art to integrate knowledge that I would otherwise be overwhelmed by. Not that curators cared about my approach, its just that now I understand that I was on the right path for me regardless of the constraints of my cultural environment. The drawing below was done at an amazing crossroad between what had happened and what was to come. I had just successfully proved twice that the Alignment Geometry of Celestial Mechanics could give clouds human features. On the eve of doing this drawing I had observed clouds making huge human heads in the east and the clear head of a dragon in the west. It was approaching sunset in late summer so the sky was in magnificent shades of pastel colors. Venus and Mars in Libra were trine Neptune in Aquarius on the eve of the approaching New Moon in Virgo. I began the drawing at 6:31 am EDT on September the 8th 2010 in Montreal and integrated to my consciousness what I had learned. At that time I had not realized that the symbols I saw in the clouds would become symbols that would manifest in Emerge Art where a different type of physics is at work.

Untitled, © Lena Ghio 2010

• As the above drawing illustrates, we connect with gravity by taking action. The act of lighting a candle is apparently enjoyable to gravity as it is recognized as a force that bends light. It is also the E of E = MC 2. We all experience in one form or another, a connection to the forces of the world and hidden mysteries. The trick is to bring down to our level of phenomenology the intent we imagine there to where our tangible world can be enhanced long term by these fast moving configurations.

NOW the moment to look forward to is March 11 2019! The Moon in Taurus, her sign of exaltation, will conjunct Mars, the planet of action, with Uranus now in Taurus in mutual reception with Venus in Aquarius, the visionary and the practical combine. The Moon and Mars conjunction will also Biquintile Jupiter in Sagittarius while sextile Neptune in Pisces. To add strength to this already extraordinary configuration, Saturn in Capricorn is trine the conjunction with Pluto who is also sextile the Sun in Pisces!  What am I saying? 

• If you are concerned about the environment and climate change AND love to do art, whatever discipline, you can align a creative act with the Alignment Geometries of Celestial Mechanics occurring on March 11 2019. and create a solution. What you create will engage gravity who loves loves loves to repeat patterns. If you live in North America, the motion's strength begin to grow at sunrise and is most powerful until noon with the exact hit at  11:26 AM EDT on the east coast. I will be doing drawings that I will share and discuss later. You are welcome to share your art and experiences on the links below. Check Astro.com for the precise time in your town.

• I recommend you envision the healing benefit flowing in you, to you, and out of you to regenerate the whole of nature. Stay tuned for next installment.

 Look up page 2  to get the gist of the challenge I have invited the world to take that involves the power of art.  I hope you tune in and share your experiences on this Facebook Page.

THIERRY MUGLER COUTURISSIME

The luxurious opening gala last February 25th
hosted jet setters from around the world.
Above a few well-known
friends of Mugler!



• Last week was totally taken over by the dazzling events happening at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts! The extraordinary creator Manfred Thierry Mugler was in Montreal to launch the exhibition THIERRY MUGLER COUTURISSIME a look at his amazing career and diverse practices through the last decades. I had so much fun investigating his life path. I have attached links in the article.

• The exhibition begins with the stunning costumes he designed for La Tragédie de Macbeth . They are appropriately dark and gorgeous. One exhibition hall after the next reveal his role in the evolution of a unique era populated with great artists like David Bowie, for whom he designed the costumes for his 1979 video Boys Keep Swinging; George Michael for Too Funky; to Zumanity for Cirque du Soleil!

• He is a very sexy person and his work in many disciplines is all spiced up by this energetic sensual undertone and exuberance. But he is also very disciplined. For example you will rarely see an image of him or produced by him that has not been well and deliberately crafted. The portrait I took of him at the conference for example is not haphazard. The lights had already been calibrated for optimum excellence no matter who would take the photo. I kind of loved that.

Nathalie Bondil, Director General and Chief Curator, MMFA, has said that she believes Haute Couture to be the only art form people can walk around in. She has been very instrumental in bringing to Montreal the works of great designers such as Yves Saint-Laurent, Jean Paul Gaultier and now Manfred Thierry Mugler. She has rightfully said that very few people in the world get to assist in a live fashion show and the exhibitions she presents give all of us a chance to look at the delicious clothes as close as we can get to it. There is spectacular beauty everywhere you look. 

• Thierry-Maxime Loriot, Curator, made a name for himself when he curated the highly successful Jean Paul Gaultier: de la rue aux étoiles (2011-2016) followed by Love is Love: le mariage pour tous selon Jean Paul Gaultier (2017-2018). His speciality is the exhaustive research he puts into both the exhibition and the catalogs that accompany them. This is reflected by the multiple photographs, videos, and documents that support the story behind the work. 

• A great exhibition is produced by many talented people. Again an astonishing line up: Philipp Fürhofer, Michel Lemieux, Rodeo FX, Tord Bootje for the scenography and special effects. There is a slew of conferences and cultural activities in association with the exhibition like The Sewing Box!

• Madame Bondil, an art connoisseur of the highest caliber, had the brilliant insight to include in the overall exhibition the great Montreal designers that follow:

Presented in conjunction with the retrospective Thierry Mugler: Couturissime and curated by Thierry-Maxime Loriot, this exhibition pays tribute to the talent of 10 local creators and collectives. Montreal Couture is the first exhibition to bring together the creations of three Quebec fashion icons: Marie Saint Pierre, with her precise, timeless cuts that marry style and function; Philippe Dubuc, whose debut collection reinvented menswear; and Denis Gagnon, who swept the fashion scene with his irreverent style and haute couture approach. The exhibition is also an opportunity to discover the distinct world of stylist Helmer Joseph, who blends elegance, romanticism and savoir-faire with his Haitian roots; creator Ying Gao, who mixes industrial design, architecture, robotics and sensory experimentation with interactive media; Marie-Ève Lecavalier, winner of the prestigious Chloé Prize; and duo Fecal Matter, formed by Montrealers Hannah Rose Dalton and Steven Raj Bhaskaran, who combine fashion, music and performance. Up-and-coming fashion designers will also be showcased in the modern and technical streetwear of Atelier New Regime, the bespoke suits of Nathon Kong and the gothic-exotic style of MARKANTOINE.

Both exhibitions run until September 8 2019
HAVE FUN EVERYBODY!!!!
