Current Project:
Desciphering Maya Writing Maya Hand Cultural Anthropology Research Proposal: Kalevala and Popol Vuh-A Parallel Reading The relevance and connections of the research to a wider academic context I propose a research related to the text and universal meaning of Kalevala and Popol Vuh:Kalevala is a Thesaurus of Wisdom, not only for Finland, but for the entire cultural world. The same statement is valid for The Popol Vuh. It is relevant that nobody knows what is The Sampo. The SAMPO is a Code: The exceptional quality of the structure found on the basis of the Kalevala text is mostly ignored by writers and users. The Code is like a wheel, a Structural Mill which moves all words in the web of the text, as being genes, sentences of deep meaning. In a wider academic context, the Code enhance linguistic research, binary analogies for codifying sentences and
4

phrases, medical data and genetic correlations, and ethical assets valuable in our present society. The aims and methods of research I consider the Kalevala text as a living organic structure, with its laws, processes of meaning and mythical reactions with semiotic values.The aims and methods of research are the following: 1. Indexicalization and digitalizing of the text of Kalevala, as it was done with the text of The Popol Vuh of the Mayas, at The Newberry Library, in Boston 2. Construction of a corpus of gestures, images, expressions, colors, animals, flowers, trees, star and constellations and other topics to be found and localized quickly in the fifty chapters 3. Enhance the mnemonic values of the poetical structure of the text, repeated thousand and thousand of verses 4. Application of the code of language and its components, called odons, to the text of Kalevala 5. A parallel reading of Kalevala with The Epic of Gilgamesh, Odyssey, Popol Vuh, Journey to the West (Hsy Yu Chi) of Wu Chen En, a Chinese Scholar of the XVI century, and 6. An Ethical Corpus present within the Kalevala

text, according to the similarities found in The Fragments of Heraclitus 7. A multifarious agenda of Vainamoinen and Ilmarinen, composed in the view of a Polymechanical and Mythical Hero 8. Current educational trends for our modern world found in Kalevala The current state and schedule of the applicants research The current state of my research looks like the museum- house of Akselli Gallen Kallela: no furniture and no object is yet disposed in the Studio, but the principal beam and all the internal and external structure are already done. I have done quite a half of the work, including the structure of the Sampo Code and mostly all the indexical lists of topics.

Schedule: I need some three years to complete the final work. First Year: Digitalization of the text of Kalevala Second Year: Indexicalization of Kalevala Third Year: An ethical approach and contemporary

educational assets

Cooperation partners, including the most significant national and international contacts, especially interdisciplinary cooperation My principal and most significant contact and partner in this research is His Excellency Mr. Pauli Makela, present Ambassador of Finland in Rome, with whom I was working for many years. His help is invaluable.The other partner is Mr. William Scott Wilson, personal friend and colleague, a famous translator from Japanese culture, particularly involved in Kalevala Studies, and a recipient of The International Prize of The Ministry of External Relations of Japan, author of many books about japanese folklore and who is reminding my name in some of his books. As a director of The Center of Maya Studies of Arts & Minds Academy, in Miami, I would remain in contact with The Arts & Minds Center and with The Institute of Maya Studies from Miami, due to the tight relationship between the text of Kalevala and the text of the Popol Vuh. Another significant participant in this cooperation, mostly related to medical matters, would be Dr. Justin Newman, Director of Research of Banyan Institute ,
7

in Miami, Florida, with whom I was working as an advisor for the last two years. Work abroad during the funding period, if anyI would prefer to remain in Finland, for all this period of three years,some travels to Karelia A detailed publishing schedule for research results, especially of publications aimed at an international audience. My idea is to open a site in the WWW, where to publish, monthly, the due topics of the proposed research, in order to have an international audience and academic feedback. Besides this, every year, The Center of Maya Studies, together with Almateria Foundation of Venezuela, to which a Kalevala Center of Studies belongs since 1988, would publish a book of some hundred pages about the most significant issues of the research done in that year. Publishing schedule for research results, detailed (36 months): First year:This first year would be a time for making the tables and lists of Kalevala 1. The Universal Code of Language and Kalevala: ZOEMA, a finish Genome 2. Structure, Memory and Poiesis in Kalevala: MNEMONICS

and

language 2. Translation in Spanish and the codifying of the text of Kalevala 3. Graphical memory of the syntaxis of Kalevala: A graphic chip 4. Binary codification of Kalevala 5.

Issues concerning research ethics, if relevant I believe that ethics are the most significant and relevant issues of this proposal. In order to make it clear and operative, all the ethical topics present in the Kalevala text would be shown in a present educational light, for the aim of new generation, as it is enhanced in the last words of Vainamoinen. Synopsis I propose Sampo Code as a research related to the text of Kalevala:The first aim is to demonstrate its value as a universal corpus of knowledge.The second is to make a corpus with all the images, elements and figures, signs, symbols, myths and names useful as a tool for later research. The third is to show the deep ethical and educational resources of the actions, adventures and stories found in the text of Kalevala, in order to apply it in our present society. The fourth is to construct a body of knowledge of Kalevala with the aim of The Universal Code of Language.Despite of the fact that many authors invoke the presence and the apparent knowledge of the code among linguists, none have presented its structure, as, in fact, did occur with the genetic code, which was clearly described by the scientists who presented it some 40 years ago.
12

The General Code of Language is the first of many intangibles in the field of language research, and we must insist on the fact that no one has yet to present the structure of the code and there is no published material related to its points, or elements. The sixty-four zoematic operators, or double logomatic operators, called odons, are very similar to some of the double particles or syllables used in the text of Kalevala, as a mnemonic resource. The sixty-four odons, even if are arranged in a circular shape, might be represented as follows:AA BB GG DD LL MM II HHAB BA GB DG LD ML IM HIAG BG GA DB LG MD IL HMAD BD GD DA LB MG ID HLAL BL GL DL LA MB IG HDAM BM GM DM LM MA IB HGAI BI GI DI LI MI IA HBAH BH GH DH LH MH IH HA

13

The binary correspondence of the zoematic odons is strictly operative in a possible codification of a text: AA- 111111 BB- 110110 GG- 100100 DD- 001001LL101101 MM- 000000 II- 010010 HH- 011011AB111110 BA- 110111 GB- 100110 DG- 001100LD101001 ML- 000101 IM- 010000 HI- 011010AG111100 BG- 110100 GA- 100111 DB- 001110LG101100 MD- 000001 IL- 010101 HM- 011000AD111001 BD- 110001 GD- 100001 DA- 001111LB101110 MG- 000100 ID- 010001 HL- 011101AL111101 BL- 001101 GL- 100101 DL- 001101LA101111 MB- 000110 IG- 010100 HD- 011001AM111000 BM- 110000 GM- 100000 DM- 001000LM101000 MA- 000111 IB- 010110 HG- 011100AI111010 BI- 110010 GI- 100010 DI- 001010LI- 101010 MI- 000010 IA- 010111 HB- 011110AH-111011 BH110011 GH- 100011 DH- 001011LH- 101011 MH000011 IH- 010011 HA- 011111 What is the use of all these tables? The meaning of the tables involves the fact that a text could be codified in a binary shape, beyond the ASCEE code, in which every letter has a binary value. The digital result is much simpler, and the amount of the used memory is practically the half.

14

Having Kalevala codified in the Universal Code of Language implies and generates a beginning of a new field of research: Codifying classical texts of universal literature. Given that the code of language has applications in medicine as well as in biomedical engineering, and therefore in all language sciences, its social value goes beyond the limits of linguistics. The applications of the code appear as possible mostly in computer science and medicine. Technology is now going through a short period of stagnation, precisely because of this unknown code of language. It is a passive moment of wait, though, this wait, which neutralizes any advance, is due to the absence of analogies between human language and that of the machine. There are a reduced number of elements common to all tongues. These basic elements of language combine to form modules that, in turn, produce the formula of the code. This system controls the rhythm, separation and expressive form of any spoken languageIn addition to an algorhytmic or combinatory aspect, the code also reflects a biochemical one. This project is an operative proposition of the use of the General Code of Language with the Kalevala text, which represents, in our view, an important technical discovery.

From this general body of facts, the research will define and demonstrate that the unitive or common traits of all tongues are scarcely eight.The Sampo Code
