The message of the Hugo Simberg painting “At the Crossroads”

"At the crossroads"
Hugo Simberg
(1894)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The symbolism of the art is the very deep thing. When the portrait is looked the first time many people see only the picture of something. But when we are thinking about the portrait, there might be the very deep story to tell for the watcher. Above the text is Hugo Simberg painting, where angel and devil are walking together with the man.

First, we will see the very funny situation, but then there would be a serious message for the observer. Hugo Simberg wanted to tell us, that when the man learns some skills, this person makes always own choices between good and bad. The devil is on the right side, and it pulls the man to walk together with this character.

Angel in at the left side of the person. The symbol of this character is that the choices must be made by using the heart. This is sometimes difficult, and when we are looking at this portrait, we must say, that the choice to follow the devil seems sometimes be right. And following the devil always looks like very easy.

Evil always promises something nice looking thing, what symbolizes those ships at the strait. The canvas of those ships is red, what symbolizes hate and violence. This thing means that devil promises the revenge for that man. Angel promises nothing. But when we are thinking about those promises, the devil will set this man to the position, where this person must thank this devil. So devil hangs this person in his character, and addicts this man about the gifts what this bad character gives to this man in this painting.

When people are walking with the angel, they will walk straight ahead. But then there would be no choice than choose of two roads what are offered. This person has come to “T” crossing, where he must make the choice, what road would he choose. And they would understand the consequences of the decisions, what this person makes. Following the devil seems very easy, but it would not take the life anywhere. The initial setting of the portrait is quite a mark of Stoic philosophy, where people should be very cold and objective.

And the devil at the right side of the man symbolizes also the inducements of the life. There are many things, how the person can destroy the own and other people life. And those things like drugs, illegal activities and bad company should be avoided. This is the thing what Simberg wants to tell the people in this portrait.

There is a suggestion that dark matter may have deformed another universe.

The researchers suggest that dark matter is the deformed dark universe. Or in the most exciting theories, dark matter is the dark universe inside our universe. In that theory dark matter is entangled with the visible material. That theory is taken from the multiverse theory. There our visible universe is one of many universes. The other universes can be invisible because their electrons and quarks are different sizes. And that thing makes those other universes invisible to us. Another hypothesis is that the hypothetical other universes send radiation that radiation from our universe pushes away. Things like invisible 9th. planet causes ideas that maybe there is another universe in our universe. The thing that makes the mysterious dark matter interesting is that. The dark matter can form structures that can be similar to visible material. But those structures are not visible. The multiverse theory is not new. The thing in that theory is that there are multiple universes at this moment

The neuroscientists get a new tool, the 1400 terabyte model of human brains.

"Six layers of excitatory neurons color-coded by depth. Credit: Google Research and Lichtman Lab" (SciteechDaily, Harvard and Google Neuroscience Breakthrough: Intricately Detailed 1,400 Terabyte 3D Brain Map) Harvard and Google created the first comprehensive model of human brains. The new computer model consists of 1400 terabytes of data. That thing would be the model. That consists comprehensive dataset about axons and their connections. And that model is the path to the new models or the human brain's digital twins. The digital twin of human brains can mean the AI-based digital model. That consists of data about the blood vessels and neural connections. However, the more advanced models can simulate electric and chemical interactions in the human brain. This project was impossible without AI. That can collect the dataset for that model. The human brain is one of the most complicated structures and interactions between neurotransmitters, axons, and the electrochemica

Nano-acoustic systems make new types of acoustic observation systems possible.

' Acoustic diamonds are a new tool in acoustics. Another way to make very accurate soundwaves is to take a frame of 2D materials like graphene square there is a hole. And then electrons or laser beams can make that structure resonate. Another way is to use the electromagnetic field that resonates with the frame and turns electromagnetic energy into an oscillation in the frame. Nano-acoustic systems can be the next tool for researching the human body. The new sound-wave-based systems make it possible to see individual cells. Those soundwave-based systems or nano-sonars are tools that can have bigger accuracy. Than ever before. The nano-sonar can use nanodiamonds or nanotubes as so-called nano-LRAD systems that send coherent sound waves to the target. In nanotube-based systems, the nanotube can be in the nanodiamond. The term acoustic diamond means a diamond whose system oscillates. The system can create oscillation sending acoustic or electromagnetic waves to the diamond. Diamond
