In two cases, Epstein boasted about donations he never made, a major university said. In a July 2014 press release, Epstein claimed he provided “critical funding” for scientists at Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to restore five Mark Rothko murals, and in a September 2014 press release, he said he gave money to the MIT Media Lab to teach toddlers computer programming.
The Rothko press release “was simply not correct, and was issued without our knowledge or agreement,” and the toddler press release was also “completely incorrect,” said MIT Media Lab spokeswoman Alexandra Kahn in an email.
Well I don't believe Ms. Khan: MIT Financier, Jeffrey Epstein, Helps Launch Revolutionary Computer Coding For Toddlers
The Jeffrey Epstein VI Foundation Backs MIT's Coding Software for five year olds...
Uh huh..Several articles show that Epstein did sponsor a software project for toddlers.
Now let's look at the Rothko story. I mentioned it in this post and always meant to get back to it. I guess now is the time:

Prince Harry joined 190 New York philanthropists at a dinner at the Four Seasons restaurant in support of the American Friends of The Royal Foundation.
[I provided a link to an image of Harry arriving..it has been removed.]
The Four Seasons is a New American cuisine restaurant in New York City located at 42 East 49th Street[1][2] in Midtown Manhattan. Until 2016, it was located at 99 East 52nd Street, in the Seagram Building in Midtown Manhattan.[3] The restaurant is owned by the Bronfman family, Alex von Bidder, and Julian Niccolini.
..The artist Mark Rothko was engaged to paint a series of works for the restaurant in 1958. Accepting the commission, he secretly resolved to create "something that will ruin the appetite of every son-of-a-bitch who ever eats in that room."...
Mark Rothko https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Rothko
Although Rothko himself refused to adhere to any art movement, he is generally identified as an abstract expressionist.
..In 1936, Rothko began writing a book, never completed, about similarities in the art of children and the work of modern painters.[26] According to Rothko, the work of modernists, influenced by primitive art, could be compared to that of children in that "child art transforms itself into primitivism, which is only the child producing a mimicry of himself."[27] In this manuscript, he observed: "Tradition of starting with drawing in academic notion We may start with color."[28] Rothko was using fields of color in his aquarelles and city scenes. His style was already evolving in the direction of his renowned later works. Despite this newfound exploration of color, Rothko turned his attention to other formal and stylistic innovations, inaugurating a period of surrealist paintings influenced by mythological fables and symbols....
Seagram Murals–Four Seasons restaurant commission
For Rothko, this commission presented a new challenge, since it was the first time he was required not only to design a coordinated series of paintings, but to produce an artwork space concept for a large, specific interior. Over the following three months, Rothko completed forty paintings, comprising three full series in dark red and brown. He altered his horizontal format to vertical, to complement the restaurant's vertical features: columns, walls, doors and windows.
The following June, Rothko and his family again traveled to Europe. While on the SS Independence he disclosed to journalist John Fischer, who was publisher of Harper's Magazine, that his true intention for the Seagram murals was to paint "something that will ruin the appetite of every son-of-a-bitch who ever eats in that room". He hoped, he told Fischer, that his painting would make the restaurant's patrons "feel that they are trapped in a room where all the doors and windows are bricked up, so that all they can do is butt their heads forever against the wall"
While in Europe, the Rothkos traveled to Rome, Florence, Venice and Pompeii. In Florence, he visited Michelangelo's Laurentian Library, to see first-hand the library's vestibule, from which he drew further inspiration for the murals.[71] He remarked that "the room had exactly the feeling that I wanted ... it gives the visitor the feeling of being caught in a room with the doors and windows walled-in shut." He was further influenced by the somber colors of the murals in the Pompeiian Villa of the Mysteries.[72] Following the trip to Italy, the Rothkos voyaged to Paris, Brussels, Antwerp and Amsterdam, before returning to the United States.
Villa of the Mysteries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_of_the_Mysteries
The Villa of the Mysteries (Italian: Villa dei Misteri) is a well-preserved suburban ancient Roman villa on the outskirts of Pompeii, southern Italy, famous for the series of exquisite frescos in one room, which are usually thought to show the initiation of a young woman into a Greco-Roman mystery cult.
..The Villa is named for the paintings in one room of the residence. This space may have been a triclinium, and is decorated with very fine frescoes, believed to be painted in the early-middle 1st century.[3] Although the actual subject of the frescoes is hotly debated, the most common interpretation of the images is scenes of the initiation of a woman into a special cult of Bacchus, a mystery cult[4] that required specific rites and rituals to become a member. One of the defining features that help identify this as a Bacchian-related mural is the depiction of maenads, the female followers of Bacchus.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greco-Roman_mysteries
Justin Martyr in the 2nd century explicitly noted and identified them as "demonic imitations" of the true faith, and that "the devils, in imitation of what was said by Moses, asserted that Proserpine was the daughter of Jupiter, and instigated the people to set up an image of her under the name of Kore" (First Apology)
KORE? As in Aby Rosen's Core Club? He owns the Seagram building that housed the Four Seasons Restaurant.
Seems NASA likes the name : https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/moons/jupiter-moons/kore/in-depth/
Kore was discovered on Feb. 8, 2003 by Scott S. Sheppard, David C. Jewitt and Jan T. Kleyna at the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii. Kore is considered a member of the Pasiphae group, a family of Jovian satellites which have similar orbits and are therefore thought to have a common origin.
Bacchus > Cult of Dionysus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_Dionysus . Dionysus cult has been much discussed here: https://searchvoat.co/?t=Dionysus&s=pizzagate&b=on

Cannibals everywhere. Some, like Zombies, eating brains. Also in today's DM, "Prince Andrew ‘was seen in paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s New York apartment getting a foot massage from a young Russian woman called Irina’, top literary agent claims." Elsewhere, "So [Simpsons TV show creator] Matt Groening got a massage from a kid [who claimed she almost barfed 'cause his feet were all crusty and nasty] on Epstein's Lolita Express. BAD HOMBRE." Now we have Jeffrey, Andy and Matt all into foot massages from young teen girls. Is Dan Schneider from Nickelodeon also on Epstein's flight log?
