216. A lover of knowledge一个热爱知识的人 symmetrical-tactics
Professor Roberto Reyna symbolizes 2 man’s love for knowledge. His first degree was in math. He wrote a famous treatise 3 on symmetry, which demonstrated his sympathy for ancient mathematicians 4. However, in a later essay, he sympathized with modern thinkers, who systematically 6 argue that a lack of symmetrical properties in the real world demonstrates a system of chaos 7. In addition, he wrote a brilliant synopsis 8 of Euclid’s twelve-volume systematic 5 treatment of geometry. Tackling this project was no easy feat 9, but he did it with utmost tact 1. This book was the first to synthesize ancient and modern geometry and systematize this vast body of knowledge.
Professor Reyna has always been sympathetic to underground intellectual movements, and his work in music is a testament 10 to this fact. He has used aggressive tactics to popularize atonal 11 music, even joining a symphony that specializes in the music of Shoenberg. Some critics propose that atonal music is synonymous with chaos, but Reyna believes the growth of such music is a symptom of a healthy artistic 13 world. “It’s a synonym 12 for development. You can’t equate 14 Bach with Shoenberg. A clock in the past cannot be synchronized 16 with a clock in the present. Thus, new trends are born.”
A pleasant man, he invited me to have breakfast with him. We shared pancakes smothered 17 with maple 18 syrup 19 while chatting about some of Reyna’s lesser-known interests. “I’d like to visit the vast tableland of Tibet. In cultural studies, no one has yet tried to explain the synthesis of pre-and post-Buddhist Tibetan religion. Well, artificial and synthetic 20 attempts have been made, but nothing significant.” Afterwards, I watched him play the piano, the guitar, and a synthesizer in between chats about the history of music.
