i started at Intension which seemed like a good place to start concidering it says PURE AS WE BEGIN and then i hopped up 3 songs like a kangaroo to lipan conjuring and then up 3 again to wings part 1 and i found that if you align the songs to the right it spells out `10,` perfectly diagonally i then continued this going the opposite way and got the next 3 songs vicarious the pot and right in two and when aligned right they spell 000 perfectly diagonally after that i continued what i was doing and reversed direction and got viginte then 10000 days part 2 the then reversed direction and got jambi and then the last 2 songs lost keys and roseta the only way to make jambi fit as the A in 10,000 DAYS was to use viginte tres to make it line up that was the only song that was out of place

copy this into word pad and align it < means left align and > means right align

You've had your fun, but this stuff is meaningless garbage. Surely you have better things to do with your time.

well what do you think it is then the whole 10,000 days puzzle

there is not much to work with if the album is a puzzle and it is

how would you go about solving it considering it is a album with songs and music

the puzzle pieces would have to be the songs would they not

this is really long.... (but if you want a thorough explanation)

i dont believe

i know it is

the music videos are instructional videos

see in the vicarious video how the guy holds his hands up like this _ \ || / that represents the songs the middle and ring finger are together which either means that 2 songs are together or there is a gap of 2 songs between the correct songs now remember when the fire shoots out of the guys's feet when he goes into the honey comb hide out its at a perfect 45 degree angle this relates to the letters in the songs there are 11 songs and there are 11 letters in "10,000 days" including the space and the comma now there arent enough 0's to spell 10,000 however there are enough o's now while listening to the album notice in intension how it says pure as we begin i thought that might be a good place to start and i remembered the hand thing in the video and looked at the letters in the songs (i first did this for lateralus there are 13 letters in TOOL LA TE RA LUS and there are 13 songs this is when it occured to me that you could probably spell out the album name with the letters in the songs for more information on that go here
http://toolnavy.com/showthread.php?t=124287 ) so starting at Intension as the first leter (i know there are no 1's in Intension however if you count the I's as 1's then it works next i looked at the letters in the other songs i looked for where the O's were in those songs and if they would line up with the I's in Intension and i found that these songs lined up if you align them to the right

................1ntension
.........Lipan C0njuring
Wings for Marie, Pt. 1

count the letters from intension theres 9 letters then count where the 0 is in lipan conjuring 8 then count where the comma is in wings 7 (include the spaces, period and comma it lines up diagonally a perfect 45 degree angle like how the fire shoots out of the guys feet

now remember the giant spinning eyeball how it had 3 tentacles if you look at where those songs are on the album youll notice they are exactly 3 songs apart i continued this only starting at vicarious and moved ahead by 3 songs (not counting the songs i had already picked and i looked at those songs and saw that the O's in those songs lined up perfectly diagonally like the first 3 so i got 10,000 the songs that were left had letters in them that spelt the days part only they didnt line up perfectly however if you place viginte tres after 10000 days part 2 it makes it so jambi lines up in the correct spot

what i was trying to say in that part was that was what the spinning eyeball with 3 tentacles was supposed to represent in the video how you are supposed to move every 3 songs

now the blurry floating glass actually represents the song names and how the letters in them line up you see when it lines up perfectly you see that rainbow lens flair and when the glass cracks and begins to corrupt that represents when the song names do not line up to spell the title of the album

now back to when he goes into the trippy place after he passes out you see him looking at the different sun looking things this part is when he is looking for a starting place when he finds the right one (song) he dives into it and the fire shoots out of his tail at a perfect 45 degree angle like i said before



however this 10'000 days puzzle goes even deeper do you remember secret track 69 on undertow DAMN YOU LET THE RABBITS WEAR GLASSES? look at the packaging of 10,000 days what do you see?

glasses

now remember after that when you wake up in your ditch you make it to your car and you try all the doors but they are locked however in 10000 days remember the song lost keys those are for your car in undertow so now that you have your car keys you can go into your car and what was in your car was a expensive leather camera case which is also why 10,000 days not only had lenses it also had pictures of the band members and other neat stuff that is your camera so when reverend maynard says DAMN YOU LET THE RABBITS WEAR GLASSES hes actually talking about that camera in your car after you wake up it has a double meaning the first part of that track was just a dream

this is also why 10,000 days and undertow were the only 2 albums with pictures of all the band members they are connected

lateralus is what got me started with this all

i started thinking maybe the album didnt start with the grudge maybe the album started with another song after all maynard says choose 1 or 10 then i noticed reflection and how it was 2 songs away from the end and i wondered if it is 2 songs away from the end then what is 2 songs before it a gap? this eventually led me to the conclusion that there are 13 songs and 13 letters in the album title i then systematically mapped out where all the letters in teh songs were i came up with about 40 different possibilities which you can see here http://noitcnuflam.deviantart.com/#/d4avkh7 i just did those possibles to see if i could find them all and while doing those i noticed you could spell out TOOL diagonally using the Fibonacci sequence if i started at disposiTion moved down 1 to reflectiOn move down 2 to faaip de Oiad and then up 3 to ticks and Leeches then i went back and forth between lateralus and triad for the 5 Fibonacci number and got lateralus followed by triad as 8 i then looked at where reflection was and how it was 2 songs away from the end of the album i then repeated the fibonacchi sequencing for the beginning of the album only upside down starting at mantra as 1 then the patient 1 then the grudge 2 then parabola 3 there were only 3 songs left parabola eon blue and schism and when i looked at those songs and the letters in them i discovered it spelt out TOOL LA TE RA LUS perfectly diagonally like this

disposi T ion
reflecti O n
faaip de O iad
ticks and L eeches

latera L us
____tri A d

man T ra
th E patient

the g R udge
___par A bol

parabo L a
eon bl U e apocalypse
schi S m

(put that track list in wordpad on your computer and choose a monospaced font like fyxedsys and you will see they line up)

after listening to the songs i realized the lyrics werent lyrics they were instructions the albums aren't albums there tools and the music videos were instructional videos on how to use the tools like the monolith on 2001 a space odyssey

this is how i know its a puzzle

back to 10,000 days jambi is the name of the genie on pee wee's play house E-MOTHER FUCKING-T isnt a alien its a genie and viginte tres is a magic word the genie speaks when granting wishes the pot is where he lives i dont care if you think this part is stupid but it fits

i didnt figure it all out yet but i think thats enough for now

i was looking at the tracklist image i realized that this is a lock, lost keys is the key, notice how TOOL and DAYS are intertwined, that is the lock part look at where lost keys is on this list and notice the 2 tracks around it that stick out to the left this is the locking part you turn that part to unlock it what it unlocks im not exactly sure but that is what it is i think you just rotate the days part however it could be the entire tool and days part combined

wings for marie, part 1

you turn the songs lost keys lipan 10,000 days and rosetta upside down (it would then be rosetta, 10,000 days, lipan and lost keys) which are the songs that contain the TOOL portion tool was upside down when i found the track list so now tool is upside down however the days part is split into da and ys this is solved by rotating the 4 songs (rosetta, 10,000 days, lipan and lost keys) order so that lost keys and rosetta line up like they are on the ablum originally and you get this for those songs 10,000 days, lipan and lost keys then rosetta now if you look at the entire track list you will see that 10000 days and tool are all right side up if your too lazy to do it just go here

i know this is the right track list because the j in Jambi lines up with the p in wings for marie (Pt 1) and the O in right in twO lines up with the last n in blame hofmanN

i was trying to figure out why tool included the (blame hofmann) part on lost keys and they added it so you can know it lines up properly

"you people" ...nice ...so are you calling me gay - and J A G a "douche" - bc we don't think you didn't completely waste "about three years" of your life on this? this is how you want to deal with your critics? this is the criteria for drawing lines and pointing fingers (so easily)? do you realize how often you post the word "KNOW"? you are no god, sir/or ma'am. look, i've been in the need-to-know, need-to-feel-like-i'm-special, that i'm a better tool fan?wtf seriously, iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii don't appreciate this sort of thing? the first 70% of my posts were these sorts of posts - well, i'd like to think they were more involved and relevant, but whatever. this puzzle idea of yours is, frankly, babytown frolics ...i couldn't imagine tool wasting their time on this train of thought. in fact i think there are quotes mentioning that there are no tracklist rearranging involved in the puzzle. there is a puzzle, though. i'll give you that much.

gap
middle finger - 10,000 days
ring finger - rosetta stoned
gap
pinky finger - wings for marie

see how the songs are spaced out do you know the rosetta sone was? it translated the egyptian language to english when the guy in the video holds up his hand it shows you how the songs are supposed to be

nothing about these last two albums - on their own! - would suggest anything about there being a puzzle, save schism's whole "pieces fit" motif... but of course that doesn't HAVE to mean anything so specific; it's art/metaphor afterall - they could've been referring to a dovetail joint, as a sort of base 420/jesusdogma reference or something concerning peace love and understanding ...who the fuck knows save the people who created it ~! and that's my point...

iAMtheMA! i greatly enjoy reading your input on this site. Your posts always hysterical, informed, and well written. i tip my hat to you. O and great mr. show link.

Anyways, this idea of a different track order is ludacris. Danny Carey did say in an interview that they put these tracks in this specific order. I can't remember it exactly or where I found it but he definitely seemed to be contrasting 10,000 days and lateralus in terms of the track order not needing to be rearranged.

I hate to break it to you Commander, but you have wasted three years of your life doing this. Hopefully you got something out of it for your own enjoyment and peace of mind.

I love trying to solve the Puzzle of the album but it does not involve the track order. That was Lateralus. 10,000 days concerns the pictures in the album artwork. I wish i knew what the fackin' meaning of them are, but I know Those of TOOL have directed our attention to them, wishing us not to focus on track order.

I admire your dedication to Toolology and your infested psychosis to spend this much time on solving puzzles. But i couldn't say it any better than IAMtheMA (and Archer) did... BABYTOWN FROLICS. Redirect your energy toward the album artwork and song lyrics, not rearranging the tracks. If anyone can solve the puzzle, it'll probably be you because youre batshit crazy enough to spend YEARS working on it.

thank you so much for the kind words, Lateralareallofus; anything i post now will sound like my face should be in a great deal of pain, and i mean that in a good way; sure feels nice to feel appreciated. i'm also a bit high right now, but i don't care, i'ma post something. idk, go with it.

heh, but speaking of (and in looking at Lateralareallofus's avatar picture) ...i definitely still wonder about the lateralus tracklisting. seems sooooo intentional, too intentional. like, i've been thinking lately that it -could- be experienced-as (or potentially-made-to-be-representative-of) the growth of a plant~! or a double metaphor for the evolution of thought itself!(a strong hicks theme)... sort of like alchemy, maybe. album art/packaging = the seed's own packaging (incl. the protective outter husk, spiralling dna within) ...the CD = the "SEE-D"(!)*. think about it! this way even the illiterate or dogmatic blind can simply "pick up" on its instructions ...like inherently. i mean that's what the spirituals were during slavery, work/field songs during the great depression (/dust bowl), old prison movies, et al

every genre of music is a direct reflection of the set/TIME and setting/SPACE [enter preposition]in which it was created ...sacred due to necessity (that jared diamond book comes to mind). in other words, these songs are important tools for survival; music gets us through ...and any scientist since the beginning of science will tell you that bjork was right. we simply choose to look the other way.

love under will = soil, sun, water. no more, no less - it is the golden rule. still, eQ/pH levels will vary according to individual growth preferences, various climate/conditions, and solar/wind orientations, but beyond this? ...the only requirement is a little patience. DIRECTIONS. under clear skies (after all danger of a closed mind is passed), sow 1 lateralus cd at a time into the player and press down lightly (on the play button). remember of cores that the richest soil is sure to bear the sweetest fruit - i just came up with that! (horticulturally speaking though, this probably isn't always true) - but try to remain as organic as possible. siriusly(ha...ha...ha), stay away from pesticides of all kinds (they will just weigh your will, your plant, and your entire listening experience down)!

then all you do is add water~! WISHIN' WELL! i mean, all you do is listen! let the music wash over everything and nothing as if for the first time and all at once ...like it's the eon of a blue apocalypse upon the once barron grudge of a wasteland. whatever that means. point is, the lateralus tracklist is sequentially perfect and shouldn't be altered, just "reimagined" ...plants don't read from left to right, or from up to down ...they can't even read at all! they can only press play - panta rhei.

* sonic visionaries, sonic landscapes. "d" being the 4th letter of the alphabet, and 4 having geometric relations with the square AND hexahedron (one of the 5 platonic solids, aka a cube) which are both known since antiquity to be symbolic of both the body AND earth, see da vinci's vitruvian, plato's ...whatever. so(w)...

every genre of music is a direct reflection of the set/TIME and setting/SPACE [enter preposition]in which it was created ...sacred due to necessity (that jared diamond book comes to mind). in other words, these songs are important tools for survival; music gets us through ...and any scientist since the beginning of science will tell you that bjork was right. we simply choose to look the other way.

love under will = soil, sun, water. no more, no less - it is the golden rule. still, eQ/pH levels will vary according to individual growth preferences, various climate/conditions, and solar/wind orientations, but beyond this? ...the only requirement is a little patience. DIRECTIONS. under clear skies (after all danger of a closed mind is passed), sow 1 lateralus cd at a time into the player and press down lightly (on the play button). remember of cores that the richest soil is sure to bear the sweetest fruit - i just came up with that! (horticulturally speaking though, this probably isn't always true) - but try to remain as organic as possible. siriusly(ha...ha...ha), stay away from pesticides of all kinds (they will just weigh your will, your plant, and your entire listening experience down)!

then all you do is add water~! WISHIN' WELL! i mean, all you do is listen! let the music wash over everything and nothing as if for the first time and all at once ...like it's the eon of a blue apocalypse upon the once barron grudge of a wasteland. whatever that means. point is, the lateralus tracklist is sequentially perfect and shouldn't be altered, just "reimagined" ...plants don't read from left to right, or from up to down ...they can't even read at all! they can only press play - panta rhei.

* sonic visionaries, sonic landscapes. "d" being the 4th letter of the alphabet, and 4 having geometric relations with the square AND hexahedron (one of the 5 platonic solids, aka a cube) which are both known since antiquity to be symbolic of both the body AND earth, see da vinci's vitruvian, plato's ...whatever. so(w)...

also, it kind of seems like the audiotrack "lipan conjuring" might've been composed to represent the aural equivalent of the stereoscopic cards found throughout the liners ...a stereo-PHONIC image, as in magic ears! again, maybe. DIRECTIONS. with the music against your ears, relax your listening and slowly pull your mind back from the gross hardware until a deeper, more subtle 3-D image can be obtained.

p.s. ^ it works, but i don't know what it sounds like.

Anyways, this idea of a different track order is ludacris. Danny Carey did say in an interview that they put these tracks in this specific order. I can't remember it exactly or where I found it but he definitely seemed to be contrasting 10,000 days and lateralus in terms of the track order not needing to be rearranged.

I hate to break it to you Commander, but you have wasted three years of your life doing this. Hopefully you got something out of it for your own enjoyment and peace of mind.

I love trying to solve the Puzzle of the album but it does not involve the track order. That was Lateralus. 10,000 days concerns the pictures in the album artwork. I wish i knew what the fackin' meaning of them are, but I know Those of TOOL have directed our attention to them, wishing us not to focus on track order.

I admire your dedication to Toolology and your infested psychosis to spend this much time on solving puzzles. But i couldn't say it any better than IAMtheMA (and Archer) did... BABYTOWN FROLICS. Redirect your energy toward the album artwork and song lyrics, not rearranging the tracks. If anyone can solve the puzzle, it'll probably be you because youre batshit crazy enough to spend YEARS working on it.
the pictures in the albums if you notice theres only 2 albums with pictures of the band members which are 10,000 days and Undertow these two albums are connected ive written this before but anyways remember secret track 69 theres a few things in that song that relate to 10,000 days

first off rev maynard says DAMN YOU LET THE RABBITS WEAR GLASSES and if you look at the packaging of 10,000 days youll notice theres stereoscopic lenses on it which are the glasses for the rabbits

secondly near the end of secret track 69 after you wake up in your ditch you walk to your car and try all the doors but they are locked and if you look at the track list for 10,000 days youll notice the song LOST KEYS these keys are for your car

thirdly what was inside the car was an expensive leather camera case the packaging for 10,000 days is pretty much a camera it has a lense and allows you to view pictures

fourthly you have to realize that in secret track 69 one half of the song is a dream and one half is after you wake up when rev maynard says DAMN YOU LET THE RABBITS WEAR GLASSES hes actually talking about the camera in the car

fithly this is more of a hobby of mine it wasnt really a waste of 3 years i just thought you guys might appreciate it however that track list does line up perfectly

sixthly I DONT HAVE THE ALBUM ARTWORK ALL MY CDS WERE STOLDEN ALL I HAVE TO WORK WITH IS THE TRACK LIST AND ALSO I WAS KIDNAPPED ONCE IT WASNT FUN I HAD TO LIVE IN A HOUSE WITH COCKROACHES CRAWLING ALL OVER THE WALLS HAS THAT EVER HAPPENED TO YOU? NO?

-thanks

i think the 'inside the outside' tour was in 2002? it was definitely by that point that the "holy gift" arrangement took flight. inside spiral: 6>7, 5>8, 4>9, outside spiral: 3>10, 2>11, 1>12. with faaip de oiad (track 13) in the middle ...twelve around one, not unlike the constellations about the earth (sans ophiuchus) or disciplines around jesus - saturated in sacred geometry. and the way schism overlaps ticks and leeches, tracks 5>8 ...that also works, and i have heard it! i think it's absolutely beautiful. not sure how intentional it was ...but ultimately, it - along with every other tracklist rearrangement scheme - had been dismissed as fan-brication or mere coincidence.

but just think about it: i know ...the pieces ...FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! SPLASH! overlapping ticks and leeches (of mind) begins, the fire droplet falls out the sky bringing the two hemispheres together, into the sacred "becoming christlike"-union/sync we see AT THE END OF EVERY TOOL VIDEO EVER!!! danny hits off from schism abruptly, dramatically ...just as the ticks and leeches bass comes in ...abruptly, dramatically.

i will agree that the videos are instructional aids for something... i don't know what exactly... but it's gonna be more involved and worthwhile than these COMPLETELY RANDOM ASSOCIATION \||/, configurations.

'cause the BUG is in the hand of the guy in the video! so now the guy's having a dream about himself having a dream about the guy! AND YOU'RE THAT GUY!!! well, if you have the hardcopy...

"shows you how the songs are supposed to be" ...you sound like a southern evangelist in your assumptions sometimes. like, holy shit. bill hicks usta say: NEVER! trust a man who starts a sentence by saying: I THINK WHAT GOD -MEANT- TO SAY...!!! or something like that. please tell me you're adam jones or maynard jk. where does it say that hand gesture has anything to do with a tracklist? how are you jumping to that idea? fanbrication me thinks. (that word'll take off, right?)

and there's not a single word of english on the rosetta stone.
