 		Recursion start?
Can anyone give me a hint about where to start this seal? I've tried

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
playing with recursive URLS (like .../seals/recursion/recursion or .../seals/recursion/seals/recursion) and following the same link paths recursively

Sounds to me like you're not looking hard enough. Or looking too hard.

Maybe you've got things backwards.

 		Not to double-post or anything, but Videbimus Lumen really has me stopped dead. I've got all the clues necessary, but I think I need a nudge in the right direction. Anything, at this point, would help.

 		Oh, yes, I just haven't figured out how to apply it to the other bit of data gleaned from its namesake.

I solved the theorem but never really got the song. Could someone shed some light on that.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Is it just to give you the location of the area the map is showing.

 		the end of recursion
It seems like there's two problems people are having with recursion: Choosing the right sets for mapping, and the final answer itself.

Many clues have already been given,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the 'going straight' clues are best for the first part.
R,e c,u...


The reason I like this puzzle is because you have to actually think about recursion. For the answer
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
, it deals with when you get to the final base at which recursion can no longer simplify. It's two words, and they rhyme. Check the recursion link given at the main puzzle site.

That would be correct. I'm just not sure how to apply one bit of info to another.

Facade means you need to look at the facade of the building.
You'll notice the numbers on the picture match up to the names of the facade.
You take those numbers and apply them to the names.

 		Did just that, in about every permutation I can think of, got nothing but gibberish.

There must be something I'm missing.

You then rearrange them in order of the other set of numbers.

I'm still getting gibberish.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The letters I got were: esptrnee. And that was by taking the nth letter of each name. I can't seem to find another set of letters that makes any sense.

You have the letters just put them in the right order. Use the numbers you already have but haven't used. If you get stuck then try something else.

 		Gotta say, that doesn't give me anything at all that I didn't already know. I'm still completely lost.
