===== Revelation 13:18 - explanation - The beasts are a result of calculation =====
::''"count the number of the beast"'' (KJV)
::''"count the number of the beast"'' (KJV)


The beast itself is a result of calculation: The beasts would not be possible if the principles of automated calculation and automata (computers and programs) based on those principles would not have been invented and developed for tens of years. Manufacturing the beasts is calculation and the method to unleash them upon human eyes is also calculation, which is the primary route by which they infect the consciousnesses of humans, is also calculation.

It indeed was! The 666th person, whose naked appearance was stolen into a 7-dimensional bidirectional reflectance distribution function model, locked far away from the reach of that person and forging of synthetic terror porn by working on the animation until it passed human tests with flying colors was a little while ago and Heaven only knows who was that 666th with such wretched luck. The person in question is likely still alive, as the last missing piece of the puzzle to make immobile beasts i.e. the reflectance capture over the human face was done for the first time as far as we know in 1999 by a team at the University of Southern California, led by Paul Debevec and the results were published in SIGGRAPH 2000, where the créme de la créme of computer graphics convenes once a year.
