Decoding the Dance of Space

The first key to taking the wheel to the next dimension is the six hexagrams, and the triangles they contain.

We will always count the numbers on a triangle clockwise in order to label them. Think of this as the experience of time in one direction. It is helpful, however to think of a backwards stream of information through time. Thus we have 3-6-9; 6-3-9; 1-1-1; 8-8-8; 1-4-7; 5-2-8; 1-7-4; 2-5-8.

The next key I discovered is the application of the Buckminster Fuller Vector Flexor “jitterbug”. This is a beautiful geometric dance which Bucky believed was a model for the Universe. It is significant I think, because it shows the crucial transformation from cubic/octahedral symmetry to dodecahedral/icosahedral symmetry. Take a look at these animations to get an idea of how this works.

Now how does this apply to the Rodin Fibonacci Wheel? Watch closely.
Our starting point will always be the cubeoctahedron, which is known in physics as vector equilibrium.

This will correspond to the first two triangles, 3-6-9 and 6-3-9. This also corresponds to a noble gas in Walter Russel’s system (diagram in my post Template for Universal Mathematics): asexuality, maximum inertia, maximum stablitiy, maximum complexity/softness of crystallization.

The cubeoctahedron then can tilt to the right or left, where it becomes an icosahedron at a tilt of 15 degrees. This is the same tilt angle as the four askew triangles, 1-4-7; 5-2-8; 7-4-1 and 2-5-8!!! When the icosahedron is closing into the octahedron, it is male, and when it opens back into the cubeoctahedron it is female.

At the maximum point of the wave, the figure collapses to an octahedron. This corresponds with carbon: bisexuality, maximum compression, maximum resistance, simplicity and hardness of crystallization, and the appearance, due to motion, of the stability of form.

Despite the 3-dimensional transformation between these three shapes, a 2-dimensional hexagram is visible, when we center our perspective on a triangular face. So we see a motion which moves in a cycle, but can change direction at four turning points: 9-6-3; 3-6-9; 1-1-1; and 8-8-8. In this way, it can be steered into infinitely complex forms. We can look at it like a flow chart indexed by the angle of the triangle that is front and centered, corresponding with the 8 triangles of our 24 number circle.

Now compare this with the eight trigrams around a circle which form the basis of the I Ching.

The four trigrams at the top/bottom/left/right are in positions of relative balance, at the zero points and peaks of the wave, whereas the four trigrams at diagonals are in the transitional phase. Because the left side of the circle is a mirrored inverse of the right side, we can unite the opposing hexagrams for a deeper understanding of this system. The noble gas is both Creative AND Receptive, it contains both the memories of every action, and the imagination which will create the future. The dense matter of maximum potential at the peak of the wave is Radiant AND Dark. That is, hot and cold, light and dark, dense motion at the center and tenuous space surrounding it are in maximum opposition. We can simplify and bring these two together into a kind of magic square/circle.

3-6-9 triangle becomes 3 according to multiples of 3; likewise 6-3-9 becomes 6. 1-1-1 becomes 1, 8-8-8 becomes 8. 1-4-7 becomes 4 because it is powers of 4, and 7-4-1 is powers of 7. 2-5-8 and 5-2-8 are abbreviations of halving and doubling cycles, or 5 and 2, respectively.

Now imagine that you can not only change direction from clockwise or counter-clockwise, but that, at any stage of the cycle, you can choose a new center triangle to start from. This gives us a model of the 4-dimensional 24-cell, which can nest all five platonic solids. Look at this view where the octahedron goes from a plane, to fully formed, back to a plane again.

To view it as a 3-d hologram, cross your eyes and try to bring the two images into resolution together, a lot like a Magic Eye. I recommend printing the image if you are doing this a lot, as staring at a computer screen with your eyes crossed will give you a headache. From this page on Hyperspace. http://home.comcast.net/~eswab/hyprspac.html

Furthermore, it unfolds the pattern to 64 total permutations, just like the I Ching. If this can be shown to be a workable system, it would throw a completely new spin (literally) on the I Ching; there are various states of motion described by the different hexagrams. From this perspective, we could use Nassim Haramein’s 64 tetrahedron vector-matrix grid ( http://www.theresonanceproject.org/graphics.html ) as a starting point. I am trying to find someone who could model this matrix going through the Vector Flexor Jitterbug Dance.

More to come, feedback is encouraged/appreciated. Peace to All.

Rodin Fibonacci Wheel Symmetries

I would like to take a slightly deeper look at the Fibonacci/Rodin number wheel. But first, a quick review of Marko Rodin’s vortex based mathematics for those that aren’t so familiar. It is based on reducing all numbers to whole numbers, for example 25 = 2+5 = 7 or 1.156 = 1+1+5+6 = 13 = 1+3 = 4. From this we see very interesting patterns emerge. It may seem simple at first, but I believe it has far-reaching applications some of which we have seen in the development of the Rodin Coil. Take a look at this simple multiplication table – thanks to Chris Te Nyenhuis for this.

Notice first how 9 repeats itself always. This is the master key of all numbers, we can think of it as zero, the point from which all numbers emerge. Just as zero divides positive from negative, 9 creates two polarities embodied in 3 and 6. The 3-6-9 and 6-3-9 cycle can be thought of as clockwise and counter-clockwise, or electricity and magnetism. We can also see the other pairs which add up to 9: 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 4 and 5, run backwards from each other. We will call these inverts. So 8 could be thought of as -1, 7 as -2, etc.

These 6 remaining numbers can also be depicted as a doubling/halving circuit on the lazy infinity shape on this wheel. Following one way we have doubling or powers of two: 1, 2, 4, 8, 7, 5, 1… equivalent to 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64… The other way is halving, or inverse powers of two: 1, 5, 7, 8, 4, 2, 1 … expressing 1, .5, .25, .125, .625, etc. Start from any number and this holds true.

If we divide the numbers into three triangles, we get three families of numbers. Any magic square (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_square ) of nine will give you one of these families diagonally.

Now we turn to the Fibonacci wheel. The Fibonacci numbers were known in India as far as the 6th century, but Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci introduced them to the West in the 12th century. They are formed by adding two consecutive numbers in the series to get the next one. The first few are 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144… We see this series everywhere in nature, including the geneology of bees, the growth of pinecones and sunflowers, and even the relative orbit of Earth and Venus http://www.takayaiwamoto.com/Earth_Moon_Sun/Harmony_Planets.html. The Fibonacci series can be thought of as a whole number expression of the all-important Golden Ratio, as the ratio between numbers in the series comes closer to approximating phi = 1.61803399…

Watch what happens when we run the Fibonacci series as Rodin numbers. We get a sequence of 24 numbers, then the sequence repeats! We can run these numbers round a 24-sided wheel, where we see very interesting symmetries.

First off, we notice that each number is directly opposite its inverted pair. This allows us to look at the cycle as a sine wave. When the wave dips down, all the numbers repeat themselves but become inverted, subtracted from 9. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5… is mirrored in 8, 8, 7, 6, 4…

9 is 0, and 1 and 8 are the points of maximum potential. So the Fibonacci Series maps out a sine wave. Does this give us an insight into the true spiraling nature of the wave?

This 24 number circle can also be divided into 4 hexagrams.

Note first the 3-6-9 and 6-3-9 triangles in a pair, and also this 1-1-1 and 8-8-8 (the only triangles which do not correspond to the three number families) hexagram at a 90 degree angle to the first hexagram. Then at the two askew angles, we have 1-4-7 clockwise paired with 2-5-8 counter-clockwise, and vice versa, giving us a doubling hexagram and halving hexagram respectively. These two sets of hexagrams can also be looked at as two 12-sided objects, one with mirror numbers horizontally, and inverse numbers vertically, the other mirrors itself vertically with invert pairs horizontally.

It is very interesting to me that all these symmetries should come out of the Fibonacci Series, reinforcing the ideas of the invert pairs, three number families, and the six doubling/halving numbers. In my previous post, Template for Universal Mathematics I showed how this 24-numbered circle can also be used to map particle physics, prime numbers, crystallization, the nesting of all platonic solids, and more. I welcome review/criticism/comments/questions. Peace to everybody out there and try not to let numbers drive you crazy.

Template for Universal Math and Geometry

This model, which is still in its early Evolution, is the result of a synthesis many different streams of information that are resurfacing in this age of information explosion. Some of these sources are fairly obscure, but currently resurfacing as a result of the Times we live in. Nonetheless, I believe there is potential to make this a very elegant, simple, working model with applications from computers to chemistry. I will be taking time later to flesh out the various ideas presented and how they correlate.

These numbers are formed from the Fibonacci series, a sequence of whole numbers which increasingly approximate the Golden Ratio. Using Marko Rodin’s Vortex-Based Mathematics (http://markorodin.com/1.5/), we add up the Fibonacci numbers into single digits, and a very clear pattern emerges. The numbers occur in a repetitive cycle of 24, which can be arranged around a circle, where one who is familiar with Rodin numbers immediately will notice the patterns.

Notice the 9 at each node, which are points of two 3-6-9 triangles moving clockwise and counter-clockwise. Notice also how each number added to the number directly across from it is equal to 9. Thus the cycle can also be looked at as a sine wave with 9 at zero, and the two sides of the circle as mirror inverses of each other. The other triangles formed are the 1-4-7 and 2-5-8 families going both clockwise and counter-clockwise, and a 1-1-1 triangle and 8-8-8 triangle. More on this as it relates to crystallization later.

John DePew at Coral Castle Code http://www.coralcastlecode.com/ has shown how Edward Leedskalnin left behind a code pertaining to his flywheel, composed of 24 magnets around a circle, and a pattern behind primes and prime quadruplets built off of this template. Note also how important the number 144 is in this system, which is the first 9 which appears in the Fibonacci series as well as the first square number after 1.

Garrett Lisi, is a surfer who has shocked the world of particle physics with a rotational model of the E8, a hyperdimensional geometric figure which supposedly models accurately all the particles in physics http://garrettlisi.com/. His work was based in part on the work of El Naschie, who used Golden Ratio to model self-similarity in particles http://www.el-naschie.net/. Look at this view of the E8 which fits onto the 24-numbered circle.

Now compare all this to the Law of Crystallization provided by Walter Russell in his magnum opus The Universal One.

Russell’s cosmology describes a Universe where nine amorphous inert gases project concept into form, climaxing in carbon, which has the highest melting point of any element, which dissolves back into space where its memory is preserved in the inert gases. When compared the Rodin Fibonacci numbers around the circle the correspondence is clear. The 1 and 8 which lie along the perpendicular line from the two 9s suggests the Law of Octaves, and perfect cubic crystallization (diamond) which occurs at the peak of the wave. Note also that the cube of any whole number added up to a single digit will always be 1,8, or 9.

The 24-cell is a unique polytope in hyper-dimensional geometry arranged of 24 octahedral cells. Just as there are five platonic solids in 3 dimensions, there are six regular figures or polytopes in 4 dimensions, one corresponding to each platonic solid, and then the 24-cell. It is capable of nesting all the platonic solids, as well as the other 4-d regular polytopes, as well as the 3 regular polytopes in 5 and 6 dimensions. Thus the 24-cell seems to be a master key to regular geometric figures, which are used by nature as symmetry sets for building order upon.

The arrangement of the cells in a 24-cell can be viewed as a central octahedron nested inside a cubeoctahedron, nested inside a larger octahedral envelope, however the figure can be rotated through a 4th dimension such that any cell can be in the center, or be the envelope containing the other three.

It can rotate through itself while maintaining perfect symmetry and compression. This fluctuation between octahedron and cuboctahedron can be very easily pictured as Buckminster Fuller’s vector flexor “jitterbug”. Note how it passes through the icosahedron (based on golden ratio) in between these two states.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfViCWntbDQ I would be very interested if anyone could model Nassim Haramein’s http://theresonanceproject.org vector equilibrium 64-tetrahedron matrix pictured below. going through this jitterbug dance.

Thus we see the possibility of producing a template, which can tie together a multitude of fundamental concepts including; numbers and the basic pattern contained therein revolving around the number nine, the law of octaves, the golden ratio and fibonacci series, prime numbers, fundamental geometry, particle physics, the periodic table of elements, the law of crystallization, astronomy, the structure of time, DNA, and multiple systems of esoteric wisdom.

As the increase in information accelerates, it will become necessary to have a more efficient way of processing and storing that information. This embedding of information is the origin of symbol as shown by Dan Winter, http://www.goldenmean.info/dnaring and I believe this template can be a key to both the internal and external technology that allows us to order all things.

I would encourage anyone who is interested in this material to develop artistic representations of this template. It is quite clear that this information does not belong to anyone and can be represented in infinitely creative media.
