Hm. Calculating the actual "surface area" of monsters, as opposed to their footprint? Or maybe the 2D area covered by the image? But for that, I suppose you could just count pixels (very tedious), or integrate over the outline curve using Green's theorem (if I remember the gist of it correctly, after 30 years...).

There are those two similar (but not identical) constants there, too, 2.169879295671908 and 2.1698792956728703, if I can read the handwriting correctly in the blurry image. Haven't succeeded in coming up with any meaning for them. It also looks like there's a constant of (pi ^ 32) in there, for no imaginable reason.

It's sort of reminding me of folks who invent their own mathematical systems to justify some theory, like "proving" that pi = 3 or 4, when you look at it in the right number of dimensions.

I also haven't been able to come up with any plausible meaning for a "Cross-Evorois Theorem." Web searches show a lot of uses of "Evorios" or "Evorio," usually as made-up names, but the only thing I've found that's close to Evorois is "Expected Value Of Return On Investment."

Nice little mystery this fellow's started. Ohg onfrq ba guvf naq nyy uvf cevbe npgvivgvrf ba gur ZFZ jvxv, V fhofpevor gb gur "hafgnoyr crefbanyvgl" gurberz.

And now I think I'll get back to something productive, like my work on the Voynich manuscript.
