The Science-Art Centre

Robert Pope and Robert Todonai hand-built the Science-Art Research Centre complex at Lock 4, on the River Murray, by themselves. It included three residences, an underground workshop/studio and an award-winning tourist venue, in which a model railroad was entwined into its garden setting.

Leonardo da Vinci was a brilliant tribal Science-Artist. None-the-less as the Pope's chief army engineer, he had no intuition about the spiritual hidden properties in art derived from the electromagnetic properties of lodestone that Plato predicted lay hidden within the plane geometrical surface of a painting. This hidden secret brought into focus during the 21st Century, is the crucial key transforming tribal science-art into the human survival blueprint associated with the neurological functioning of a holographic universal reality.
