I've loved watching Fringe but I just didn't dig into the minutia like I have in Life on Mars, FlashForward, The Event, and especially The Walking Dead, and a few others as it's overwhelming. In Fringe it finally occurred to me that the leaf has a delta symbol as seen here-



YouTube: Link


No, it's not a 3-dot triangle but the 3-dot triangle suggests a delta symbol.

To give my theory a boost that the delta symbol can be a letter A (as I observed in the Sparta logo in the film Warrior), in tonight's season opener of Fringe of "Neither Here Nor There" the glyph code was reported by FringePedia as APPEAR. Although there are four letters that make use of the "delta-leaf" (A,B,G,&H) the leaf with the yellow dot in the upper right corner is the one used for A. Although it might be coincidence, the 3-dot triangle on the containers are in the upper right corner of the container side.

From my observations another theme is the isolation tank that is shown in Fringe that Olivia uses to cross over to the other universe. In tonight's episode Walter hides in it and gets soaked and says "Is it safe to come out yet?" or something similar. In Warrior a tank overturns in water and the only exit is through an opened hatch. As has been mentioned before here in Super 8 a "water tank" is central to the plot. In The Walking Dead they have the main character get trapped (or isolated if you will) in it as I've mentioned plus in the opening credits a water tower (water tank) is seen. Remember I linked a scene to a 1963 Batman comic (#156) where Batman is used as a test subject for deep space missions and is studied in an isolation room and hallucinates. In ABC's Life on Mars the characters wake up in isolation chambers and their experiences are not real. I've seen Alice in Wonderland (both books) and The Wizard of Oz be used in many of these as supporting themes. My apologies for dragging in my metaphorical links of isolation chambers as water tanks and military ones but they are imho tied at the hip to the 3-dot triangles in a larger pan-media "plot" to suggest we are like NEO perhaps and are being prodded to "wake up."

Oh yeah, if you didn't spot it the Fringe leaf clip ends showing three dots in a triangle formation. Smile

I believe the important characters in Fringe called Observers can be linked to isolation tanks in the real world in that observers are used to monitor safety. Also, the observer effect is part of Schrodinger's Cat and quantum theory.

If you have not read deeply into my past comments on FlashForward, I believe the primary example of a delta symbol, or triangle is the one formed by the three sources of the tachyon waves from the show- Menlo Park CA, London, and near Tokyo.



Besides linking to classic Greek elements as I've mentioned before and the Celtic Petrosomatoglyph http://tinyurl.com/3zurroq for example, a chevron is a gestalt delta shape of course and has its own path linking to the stars in fiction. A good example is in a Stargate's chevrons. The top chevron always points downward when locked while the symbol for Earth itself is an upward-pointing chevron with a dot over it (sun over a pyramid). Thus again, we can tie dots to triangles as combined symbols.

Close-packing of spheres forms triangular patterns.

Even though the primary form is three dots in a triangular pattern, if triangles are used in the same triangular pattern you end up with the Triforce symbol. http://tinyurl.com/2ek9vbt

The Zelda game was very recently "promoted" on the website of The Mercury Men (remember the 3-dot triangle masks I mentioned?) and both the Zelda game and the Triforce symbol were folded into the mythology of the AMC series Rubicon, as shown here-

It can also be the letter "i" in a version of Brahmi script-

It's fun to think of the Brahmi script "i" phonetically as "eye" and when juxtaposed with a triangle we end up back at the "Eye of Providence" or "Eye of God" (and all-seeing eye).

We also have this from the first chapter (Down the Rabbit Hole!) of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland itself of:

Quote:
Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass: there was nothing on it but a tiny golden key...


Perhaps we are seeing the "footprint" of the three glass legs so all we need is to look for that key. Smile

The pairs of A's I think of as "Alcoholics Anonymous" then might be perceived of as alternately "Alice's Adventures" and the many inclusions of the underground theme (like how it was used in Super Eight) might be thought of as the original title of the book as Alice's Adventures Underground. Either that or underground points to H.G. Wells' Morlocks. Smile Perhaps as in what was said in the Enigmatrix, everything is connected.

Sorry, these were not the droids I was looking for.

Now I'm twice as close. Smile Do you think it might trigger the technological singularity? Laughing

I've now seen the official cast photos for Fringe and they include the geodesic dome of Buckminster Fuller that I mentioned previously.

This is at the 9:09 mark of a short film at Google videos called The Orion Conspiracy.

The latest iteration I've seen is from the eighth episode of the web series A Perfect Union. The backbone of the series mythology makes use of Freemasonry history so this would fit the "Freemasonry 101" offering by JewMagic. As "The Orion Conspiracy" includes Freemasonry as a search link I'd place the Masonic context as supportive of the "Orion CONspiracy."



Earlier tonight I was re-watching episode 401 of Fringe and in my opinion yet another tri-light was an iteration as well. To bump up the value of this find into a better context my screen capture just happens to catch the ghostly apparition of Peter Bishop. Those that have seen the episode will know just how short the duration is. This was the second of THREE appearances during the episode.

I've thought that the way Peter "comes and goes" is very much like when James Kirk was caught in interphase space in the classic Star Trek episode of The Tholian Web.

Anyway, I'd think the coincidence of a tri-dot-delta light pattern in the season opener of Fringe when combined with the "ghost" of Peter Bishop would elevate this find from mere coincidence to that of synchronicity and thus deliberate intention. Let's all practice the duck-and-cover drill friends, lol.
