Why Nikola Tesla was the greatest geek EVER
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
THIS IS THE FIRST PAGE OF A VERY EXCELLENT ON-LINE “COMIC BOOK” ABOUT NIKOLA TESLA. READ THE ENTIRE THING HERE: Why Nikola Tesla was the greatest geek who ever lived – The Oatmeal
Additional notes from the author:
- If you want to learn more about Tesla, I highly recommend reading Tesla: Man Out of Time
- Also, this Badass of the week by Ben Thompson is what originally inspired me to write a comic about Tesla. Ben’s also got a book out which is packed full of awesome.
- There’s an old movie from the 80s on Netflix Instant Queue right now about Tesla: The Secret of Nikola Tesla. It’s corny and full of bad acting, but it paints a fairly accurate depiction of his life.
- The drunk history of Tesla is quite awesome, too.
- X-rays: just to clarify, Tesla did not discover x-rays, but he was one of the early pioneers in its research.
- Cryogenic engineering: I’m referring to the cryogenic engineering that has to do with using liquified air to cool a coil and reduce its electrical resistance (Patent No. 11,865), not freezing people and waking them up in the future so they can fight Wesley Snipes.
- Transistor: Tesla’s influence on the modern transistor can be found in patents 723,188 and 725,605. (a better explanation here)
- Radio: Tesla was the nicest geek ever until he decided to sue Marconi a few years later. 8 months after Tesla died, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Marconi’s patents on the invention of radio. So Tesla eventually won that battle, although he was dead by then.
- Tesla VS Edison: I could write a novel on the differences between Tesla and Edison, but seeing as how this comic is already huge I decided to leave many things out. For instance, Edison killed cats and dogs, but Tesla loved animals and had a cat as a child. Originally Tesla wanted to be a poet, but after getting zapped by static electricity from his kitty he was inspired to study the effects of electricity. One could vaguely construe that Tesla’s cat was responsible for the second industrial revolution, which arguably makes it the most awesome cat who ever lived.
Edison believed that fossil fuels were the future and that there were enough resources in South America to provide for the next 50,000 years. Tesla believed that renewable energy sources like hydroelectric, solar, and wind power were the future. This is remarkable because in the 1890s there was no such thing as “going green,” so Tesla’s ideas on conservation were very forward-thinking at the time. (From OATMEAL)
ELECTRONIC HOKUSAI
Republished by Blog Post Promoter
One of favorite artists is the Japanese master, Hokusai, (1760 – 1849) an ukiyo-e painter and print-maker of the Edo period. He is famed for his masterful series of wood-block prints, “Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji”, the most famous of which is “The Wave”. Learn more about Hokusai here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hokusai See the complete works of Hokusai: http://hokusai.us.com/home_en
The CONTRAST between the manually carved and inked woodblock prints of Hokusai and the astonishing global transformation of technology during the past 150 years due to the invention of electricity, is manifested through a computer technology “time warp” that is nothing less than “magic” when compared to our “universe” on Earth only a few lifetimes ago.
A present-day Japanese artist (Segawa thiry-seven) has superimposed changes caused by electronic technology into a centuries-old technique, animating Japanese woodblock prints to alter the static images and inlay elements of sci-fi and modern culture.
PYRAMIDS, TESLA AND LASERS, OH MY!

Have you ever wondered what we could do if electricity was free and in unlimited supply? Have you ever wondered why the the “powers that be” have suppressed the use of such technology, which now exist in abundance? We could live in a paradise. Instead, we live in a world controlled by Banksters and Oil Companies. Here are a few demonstrations of how to create an inexhaustible supply of free energy.
LASER PYRAMID POWER
It has been demonstrated that the pyramids produced electricity and other forces in that ALL 80 Egyptian pyramids. All of them are built using the principle of a CHEMICAL LASER, which uses relatively simple interaction of chemicals to produce energy in the form of laser and electric energies. The water of the Nile was infused electrically with electromagnetic energy which was used as “food”, which the Greek historian Herodotus called “Luster Water” and was carried only in amphora containers to prevent electrical discharge by 
contact with the ground. Today there are over 2,000 patents on chemical lasers in the U.S.. For research, photographs and much more information about the technology used, visit the following website of James E. Brown: http://earthmilkancientenergy.com/ch13.htm
TESLA TOWER POWER
The same technology was developed and built on a small scale called the Wardenclyffe Tower, also known as the Tesla Tower, which began construction in 1901. This was an early wireless transmission station designed by Nikola Tesla in Shoreham, New York and intended for commercial trans-Atlantic wireless telephony, broadcasting, and proof-of-concept demonstrations of wireless power transmission.
Below is a video that briefly demonstrates that the ancient pyramids of Egypt were electric power generators and wireless power transmitters. They harnessed electromagnetic forces from underground water (supplied by the Nile River) and conducted through the atmosphere.
Another excellent source of information about the use of pyramids to generate power is described in great detail in the 
book by Christopher Dunn, “THE GIZA POWER PLANT”, which uses the technology of harmonic resonance. In a brilliant piece of reverse engineering based on twenty years of research, Dunn reveals that the Great Pyramid of Giza was actually a large acoustical device! By its size and dimensions, this crystal edifice created a harmonic resonance with the Earth and converted Earth’s vibrational energies to microwave radiation. The author shows how the pyramid’s numerous chambers and passageways were positioned with the deliberate precision to maximize its acoustical qualities. This may be the same technology discovered by Nikola Tesla and the solution to our own clean energy needs.
ELECTRIC POWER PLANTS OF THE ANCIENT WORLD

As described in the book ALIEN INTERVIEW, the civilizations of Egypt and others were a “false facade” created tens of thousands of years ago by elements of the “Old Empire”. The nature of these structures were an integral part of establishing and maintaining Earth as a “prison planet”. Who built the pyramids, how, when and why, have been carefully hidden from the public for thousands of years. Fortunately, independent researchers like Christopher Dunn, and the inventions of Nikola Tesla, reveal many of these secrets.
Mainstream historians will tell you that the Great Pyramid of Giza was a glorified tomb for the Egyptian pharaohs. The only original monument left of the original Seven Wonders of the World, this structure was created with impeccable mathematical precision, and is a unique, mysterious feat of construction and engineering. There’s only one problem: the Great Pyramid has none of the characteristics of tombs: including extravagant artifacts, ornate wall art, sealed entrances, elaborate coffins, or even mummies themselves. It was, however, built with unique – the same materials that are used for electrical conductivity today. These facts are leading more and more historians to believe the pyramids may have had a far more useful purpose. ..that pyramid of Giza was not at all a tomb, but a power plant: generating and transmitting electricity to the civilization surrounding them.
