Every claim in The America Codes can be checked against the actual text of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Great Seal. No belief required — just a willingness to look closely. Below, Alan walks through the evidence, one code at a time.
For years, people have asked the same question: how do you know this is real, and not just pattern-seeking? Fair question. So instead of asking you to take it on faith, here it is in the founders' own handwriting — the scribal "mistakes" that aren't mistakes, the character counts that mirror 1776, the grids, the angles, the geometry built into the documents you were taught to read as flat text. Watch each clip. Check the math yourself. Then decide.
Timothy Matlack, the scribe who hand-lettered the Declaration of Independence, left two errors in the text. Alan shows you exactly where they are — and why two identical, deliberate "mistakes" from a professional scrivener is the first clue that something was built into this document on purpose.
Commas. Periods. Type choices. Alan breaks down which marks were deliberately excluded from the character count — and how that exclusion produces the number 6,771. Look closely: 6,771 is a mirror of 1776. That's not a coincidence you can argue away with rounding.
6,771 characters isn't just a number — it's a rectangle. Alan shows how the character count factors perfectly into a grid, and why that grid is the key that unlocks everything else in this series.
The numbers 11 and 33 show up again and again in Masonic symbolism — and again in the design of the Great Seal of the United States. Alan connects the dots between the Seal's construction and the numerology the founders were working in.
Look at the pyramid on the back of a one-dollar bill. Now look at the angle. Alan overlays the geometry directly on the Great Seal and shows the precise triangle encoded into a symbol you've seen a thousand times and never really looked at.
22 over 14. Pi over two. Alan walks through the specific grid errors that point to Benjamin Franklin — a man documented to be obsessed with magic squares and mathematical construction — as the architect behind the code.
Even the blank space on the page was accounted for. Alan shows why the room left for the signature line isn't incidental — it's part of the same deliberate construction as everything above it.
The America Codes has been the subject of open, sometimes skeptical conversation — including this appearance on Acid For Squares, where Alan sat down to defend the work in real time.
Alan goes beyond the mechanics of the grid to talk about what the codes point to — a broader conversation about consciousness and why the founders may have encoded these messages in the first place.
A candid moment from the same conversation.
