In there I cite numerous examples of automatons, artificial humans, homunculi, golems, robotic creatures and talking heads as reported by the ancients. regards, Theo In my book ‘Free Energy Pioneer: John Woreel Keely’ published by IllumiNet Press in 1998, the second part is entitled ‘The Secrets Of Occult technology’.

In Anne Rice's 'The Vampire Lestat', Lestat explains how he was forced into becoming a vampire by an old undead called Magnus, who once was an alchemist seeking immortality. Also, the ideas of implanting human souls into metal armors, and the creation of homunculus, is one of the reasons I became fascinated with the Anime <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullmetal_Alchemist" rel="nofollow">Full Metal Alchemist</a>. And even a more recent depiction of an alchemical homunculus can be seen in Tim Burton's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9_%282009_film%29" rel="nofollow">9</a> —not a very good film, though. But the universal warning of not attempting to create a machine to the likeness of man is still present. From the Dune Universe created by Frank Herbert with the tale of the Butlerian Jihad, to the most recent Battlestar Galactica & Caprica TV series; in those 2, the creation of AI signals the pivotal point when a human civilization faces utter extinction, a neverending cycle from which there's no apparent escape. Hmm... should we stop calling the short-statured bug-eyed aliens 'Grays', and start calling them 'homunculus' perhaps? Your tale of Albertus Magnus reminded me of my youth’s readings.
