My Interest

I became interested in the research of L. G. V. Rota after reading an article on his work in a long-defunct popular fringe science journal called The Modern Mystic and Monthly Science Review. The article, titled "Universal Currents", was by a person writing under the pseudonym of "Layman".

The editor of The Modern Mystic, A. R. Heaver, knew Layman. It turned out that Layman was a retired geologist by the name of Slade, who got to know Rota well over the years between the wars, and several articles published in the magazine were an educated layperson's account of the bits and pieces of information that Rota had imparted over this period.

When I met Heaver in 1958, The Modern Mystic and Monthly Science Review had already been defunct for some 10 years. Also, both Layman and Rota had died, but Heaver put me in touch with Peter Rycott who had been treated by Rota during his childhood and knew most of the people in the area around Genissieux where Rota had his laboratory.

A visit to what remained of Rota's laboratory was organised, and it transpired that some of Rota's equipment was still fairly intact, although some of it had been removed and some dumped in an outhouse used by a local farmer as a shed.

I managed to finance the digging up of one of the many metal blocks that Rota had used to tap the universal current and subsequently brought the block to England for examination.

Some 16 years later, out of the blue, I was visited by a Frenchman, Guy Leblond, who knew about L. G. V. Rota and informed me that Rota had a son. Shortly afterwards I met Rota's son, Daniel Rota, in Saint-Malo in northern France. Daniel Rota was only a small boy when Rota died and he knew that his father had made some important discovery, but not being a scientist he understood little about it.

However, in the intervening 16 years since I visited Rota's laboratory, Daniel had brought most or all his father's papers and laboratory equipment to his then house in Saint-Malo. He allowed me to see and photograph the equipment [examples are shown on the wikirota.org website].

Sometime later, Guy Leblond unexpectedly visited me with a piece of Rota's equipment that I had not previously seen. Leblond said it was called the "Transducteur". It could be a device for amplifying the universal current sufficiently so it could be heard without electronic aid, since Rota invariably used headphones and even galvanometers to detect it.
