Not sure if psychotic or not, but I don't get how one can even think those are actually meaningful schematics. I mean, a basic calculator schematic looks more complex!

Giordano Bruno itself is pretty overestimated: now regarded as a protector of rational thought, some study of his life reveals an opportunistic relation with religion. He's probably the only one being excommunicated from every possible European confession at the time (catholic, lutheran and calvinist). One wonders why he got into those religious orders in the first place.

If it was a Tesla statue, I'd give a bit more hope to the intellectual value of those "encrypted" (very poorly, it seems) texts.

There are much more trustable examples of fool geniuses (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TempleOS).. this looks a mental outbreak at best, or just some attention seeking maneuver. Notice the strong resemblance of the two Brunos... maybe the guy thinks he's a descendant?

I really hope they'll find him safe and quickly.
