ELIMINATE THE IMPOSSIBLE part 1, mystery hidden in painting

SOLVE THE CLUES & THE MYSTERY!!! Transcript of presentation to the ACDSL/ multi-spectral image of missing documents hidden under paintings in a fifty year old notebook (late evening 17-6-2005):
"This is the multi-spectral image of the first hidden page. You can just start to see the print coming in now under the handwriting. The pages come from two old red log books. One is from an elderly painter up north, and it had eleven pages cut out. The other logbook was in the Time Capsule at the Natural History Museum. As you know, our friends were able to "borrow" that book from the Museum tonight. We found the 11 missing pages glued down tight in the second book. Some other images were hidden by painting over them. It's actually a lot like the famous Archimedes Palimpsest.

The palimpsest! Come on, everyone knows that old story: The last great codex of Archimedes works was made in the 10th century. But then in the 12th century, a Christian scribe took the parchment out, scraped off all the ink, and reused it for a prayer book. Around 1899 someone realized something important was hidden in the pages. Finally a scholar realized what they had: besides all of Archimedes' classic stuff, bodies floating in water, equivalence of planes, spiral lines, spheres, bla-bla-bla, it had a weird children's puzzle, and the big surprise: The Method of Mechanical Theorems! You know, infinitely many stripes of infinitesimal width, all that lot?! That's a pretty neat trick, 2000 years before calculus.
Well, anyway, this didn't stop the book's next owner from thinking he might improve the value of the palimpsest if only it had some nice religious illustrations, so around 1938 he forged some fake Byzantine icons in the book. Parts of the codex seemed lost, till in 1999, the parchment wound up at the Walters Art Museum, and imaging teams from around the world got a shot at it. The RIT people got a lot of images using a liquid-crystal tuneable filter and 10 nanometer wavelength bands across visible light: from 400nm to 700nm. Then they tried a pseudocolor technique with ultraviolet and broadband white. Then finally they got 7 different LED's: deep blue, blue, cyan, green, amber, orange-red and red. They take thousands of images on their RGB camera and feed it into their super-computer for processing. They wrote an imaging program called Archie 1.1 for Archimedes. I "appropriated" their software and simplified it for my apple: I call it Artie 1.1 , get it? For Sir Arthur Conan...? Don't tell anyone. They even have a thing where they use continuous x-ray emission from a synchrotron to fluoresce the old ink.
Anyway, the ACDSL doesn't have millions of pounds in this year's budget, but we don't need no stinking linear accelerator. Just some good old fashioned strobe lights, colored glass filters, and my old black-light from University, and you have a multi-spectral hack! Feed it all into Artie 1.1 and you get to see images hidden 50 years ago! You can read some of them already... Bloody 'ell! Where did that blood come from?
That! That ghosty-looking thing. Is that... is that a dog?"

Da vinci did all this type of stuff in his work, theres been civilsation communicated with aliens, all that alien science technology. like the aztecs and egyptians. man, the govt covers it up

things we take for granted can turn out to be illusions

I landed on this video by entering random meaningless words in the Search. I feel like I've uncovered something profound (or equally meaningless).

kind of gives one the feeling that we're all living in a joke, told by Virgil to Macbeth
