THE CHRONOVISOR ( INVESTIGATING THE ALLEGED DEVICE FOR VIEWING THE PAST)
In the late 1970’s the notion of the Chronovisor, a piece of equipment claimed to be able to show scenes from the past, captured mainstream and fringe imaginations.
The Chronovisor is an invention which was first reported by an Italian priest Father Pellegrino Ernetti and which is supposed to be an instrument which may produce images and sounds similar to TV.
chronovisor - a device for observing past events described by an Italian priest named Pellegrino Ernetti; it is a device that looks like TV and seemed to show images and sound from the past.
Ernetti said that he met the team of twelve scientists while building this particular gadget and some of them included the renowned scientist; Enrico Fermi and Wernher von Braun.
With the Chronovisor Ernetti said that it was possible to record the latest historical happenings such as the crucifixion of Jesus and speeches by Roman dignitaries.
Allegedly, a photo of the Chronovisor has never been posted on the internet and no concrete proof of its existence has ever been exposed to the public yet, the story can still interest people who are interested in time travel, lost technologies and unknown past.
This work presents the development of the Chronovisor, along with its hypothesized benefits, and possible reasons for its establishment and continued effects on the present day dialogue regarding time travel and historical voyeurism.
The story of Chronovisor was first taken root when the Benedictine monk and a musicology teacher Father Ernetti boasted about seeing the time machine during the 60s and the 70s.
Ernetti said that device worked by picking up the after vibrations or the electromagnetic radiations of past events.
Ernetti believes that all events produce an energy signal of electromagnetic radiation that, in theory, should have been collectable and transformable into pictures and sounds.
This concept has a tenuous association with science, specifically broadcast radio waves and varieties of electromagnetic radiation when using it in time-viewing, and essentially speculative when wandering in the area.
Ernetti said that using the Chronovisor he saw historical moments such as plays staged in ancient Rome, and life of Christ. Despite these accounts were published in media sources,
Among all such claims, naturally, the most scandalous one related to the Chronovisor was that Ernetti said he saw the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
He is said to have reproduced this as a photograph of the crucified Jesus in La Domenica del Corriere, an Italian weekly magazine of October 29 1972.
However critics quickly realised it was a similar image found on a statue of the Christ in a church in Italy thus disputing the account of Ernetti.
Moreover, actual documentation or descriptions that reflect the actual identities of the authors of Fermini or von Braun – the alleged scientists linked to the project , working with Ernetti on the Chronovisor has not been provided.
It is important to bear in mind that also in this case there are no reliable data regarding the existence of the Chronovisor, moreover, Eric’s Words and the Chronovisor’s claims appear to be truly extraordinary, so most people consider the Chronovisor to be a sheer invention or a mere allegory.
However, once again people read the narration and the movie became the main focus of the discussions about the time travel, lost knowledge and secret technologies.
Though no offical scientific laws currently prove the possibility of a Chronovisor, the idea puts into question the veracity of time and energy principles as existent.
In theory, some physicists will say that events that occur in the universe can somehow send out signals though these are postulated to be minute and ephemeral, not something that can be pieced together into recognizable shapes and forms, let alone the most basic forms of images and sound.
In mainstream physics, videotaping events as they happened, means either having enormous amounts of stored energy or turning the overall structure of space-time inside out.
Relativity and quantum theory do offer parts of certain unusual occurrence such as time alterations and quantum correlation but they don’t offer a practical footing to construct a gadget such as the Chronovisor.
But even if such a device is tenable, it would come with heavy ethical questions to do with privacy, and potential for misuse, in addition to cultural scenarios of observing and EVEN directing how history is perceived.
Since its intended ‘telling,’ the story of the Chronovisor has re-surfaced occasionally in popular culture especially concerning Government conspiracies and secretive technologies. Pseudo-scientific skeptics also now believe that there is a device like the Chronovisor but was secretly controlled by influential organizations like Vatican or the government.
Despite no compelling evidence to support them, these claims belong to a larger cultural genre of time travel and forgotten technologies.
These projections, that in some epoch now out of reach the faculty to see into the past as by invoking lost or repressed technologies, responds to deep-seated human need to reach the past directly, to touch it as with one’s bare hands.
This fascination is evidenced in motion pictures, literature and television productions all based on time travel, different histories and technologies kept hidden.
Even though mainstream science can claim that the Chronovisor is an invention from science fiction or at best, a fantasy, the ethics of a such device must be considered.
Were technology to ever get to the stage where it was possible to watch past events unfold then there are many ethic implications. Is it right to watch history without their permission?
Could such type of technology be used to change the past or alter perception of the society in terms of the social realities that surround people? These questions concern social risks of the technology that can peer through people’s everyday lives and alter the narrative of history.
Furthermore, the political or ideological exploitation of such a device will result in controversies over historiographic and cultural identities, and the erosion of the authenticity of mankind’s legacy.
However, the presumption of the Chronovisor’s fictionality is still today intriguing and carries still significance as a human’s dream of bringing close past and present.
The thought behind Chronovisor as a myth or a speculative technology is about dominance of time and the ambition to reach through time to influence and embrace the time and life which laid the foundation for the existence of human civilization.
For some, it becomes an epic tragedy of pride and curiosity unfortunate enough to be punished severely for investigating what science slowly deems acceptable to explore.
To others, it is somewhat motivating message telling that there is still a lot of things which are still unseen and unknown; there are still things which can make a man question reality.
In conclusion, I find it is appealing to treat the chronovisor as another myth in the history of time travel while following Ernetti’s report.
Despite the fact that an invention as Imperial Duma and such device if it is actually exist can not function as stated, it provoke interesting discussions regarding time and history, memory and its representation.
Regardless of the enthusiasm that many people feel when they read the story of Chronovisor it is still not possible to term this invention as a gone with the winds plot that was but never existed, it is a scientifically angled story that ignites the curiosity of many, and makes people who hear about Chronovisor dream of travelling in time.
In the presence of science and its ever closer links with fantasy the Chronovisor remains to be the symbol of hope and admiration for the eternality of our attempts to explore the time and consequently, maybe, ourselves.
Thanks for READING to the end
