Q. "How does your synergetics mathematics accommodate the calculus? How does it handle differential equations?"
RBF: "I don't use differential equations. I understand those catenaries and all that... but I just use straight synergetics."

Calculus (1)
Index Entry
Calculus:
"To implement the invention of the calculus, man has used the XYZ coordinate system formalized by Descartes out of the Greeks' 90-degree symmetrical 'crosstree' of three supposedly straight and supposedly continuous 'infinite lines.' We have learned to reason only in terms of these experimentally demonstrated fallacial suppositions and only in three dimensions: of width (X), breadth (Y), and depth (Z). But width, depth, and breadth do not include consideration of how hot a local structural event may be, not how long it has been there, nor how much it weighs. There are a lot of other aspects of Nature which the ghostly Greek kind of geometry did not accommodate, as for instance, the experimental information that two actions cannot take place through the same point at the same time-- i.e., two lines cannot run simultaneously through the same point. In the Greeks' three-dimensional conceptions, 90-degree perpendicularity and nonparallelism to a plane already established, were essential to qualification as a new dimension. Thus in the development of the XYZ coordinate system, we have found only three unique 90-degree line convergences in a common 'point.' All our analytical geometry, and the technically difficult structures we build with it, are translated through the XYZ coordinate system."

Calculus:
"The calculus is used to figure the relative acceleration curves in the drag tank pattern tests for a ship like the Queen Mary. Then the points along the curves are graphically accommodated by translation through analytical geometry and geometrical identification of the relative positions of the various points in a three-dimensional grid cube of XYZ coordinates.
"By 1913 I saw that man had come to regard the three-dimensional coordinate system as exclusively fundamental. But, I thought, that while the XYZ coordination served useful purposes, it might also be possible that nature had some other quite superior, rational, and comprehensive kind of coordinate system. This occurred to me because the XYZ coordinate system inherently requires recognition of such irrationalities as pi and the paradoxical recognition that we cannot finitely subdivide the circumference of a finite circle by its radius. There are a great many irrational numbers occurring as 'fundamental' constants in the mathematical coordination between mutually remote scientific disciplines which I though might be the consequence of our arbitrary use of the XYZ coordinate system. Chemistry seemed to laugh at our coordinate awkwardness us"

Calculus:
"The calculus assumes that a plane is infinitesimally congruent with the surface of a sphere at the point of the plane's tangency of the sphere. The calculus and the spherical trigonometry therefore also assumes that the sums of the angles around any point of any sphere are always 360°." But "the sums of the angles around all the vertices of a sphere will always be 720° or one tetrahedron less than the sum of the vertices times 360°, ergo, one basic assumption of the calculus is invalid."

I've been given these faculties, and I'd like to use the faculties that are given. I realize that there are a great many of my fellow men who are trying to break through great mysteries. Rather than using what we have, they were trying to operate in an area where we couldn't operate. And I said, we are given a fantastic inventory of capabilities-- which we don't know much about. We better find out what are the capabilities we have and ramify those. Then the mysteries may yield some more to us. But we must use what we have, rather then trying to use what we don't have."

Capitalism:
"The capitalist comes to a situation where all the others are specializing and he alone integrates their intelligence. He comes upon the synergies before the others of society. Realizing that society does not identify the synergetic augmentations with the parts in which they deal, he sees that he can claim the synergetic, ergo unexpected, benefit of his property and right. This is the basis of the profit system. Those who can see the prize before the others--they act as if it were theirs, when it is a product of nature and not of their own, ergo had 'earned' his profit. The augmentation is inherent in nature. That's the point! Herein lies much of the fallacy of so-called capitalism."

Capital Worth of U.S.:
"After the censuses of 1790 and 1810, Congress decided it would be a good idea to have an economic census of the country. As the beautiful document in Washington shows, there were one million human families in the United States in 1810. There were also one million human slaves, a formidable figure. Obviously all the families didn't have slaves. Very few did, but the point is that the one-for-one ratio must be recognized.
"The census found that the average homestead was worth $350 and the average slave was estimated to be worth $440; so the human machine was deemed more valuable than the homestead.
"Taking the total valuation, including canals, highways, and so forth, and the estimated value of the wilderness at $1500 per family, the U.S. Treasury came to the conclusion that the value of the United States in 1810 was $3 billion.
"Despite many inflation-deflation fluctuations since 1810, there is relative magnitude significance in the fact that last"

Carbon:
"The first closest packed omnitriangulated, ergo structurally stabilized, cube has 14 spheres, but without a nucleus. This could be carbon and carbon is the initially closest packed omnisymmetrical polyhedral fourteeneness providing further closest packability surface nests suitable for structurally mounting hydrogen atoms to produce all organic matter.
"Also the cube is the first minimum symmetrical all-space filler. Therefore it is structurally prone to self-reassociation. In order to serve as the carbon ring (with its six-sidedness), the cube of 14 spheres (with its six faces) could be joined with six other cubes by single atoms nestable in its six square face centers, which singleness of sphericity linkage potential is providable by hydrogen one."

"The internal Earth lines formed in the intersection of all three-dimensional coordinate planes of all predecessor world projection methods represents a hodge-podge of lengths and angles-of-incidence to the Earth's external surface. When the surfaces are stripped off the Earth and arranged in projected planar condition, these lines and angles look like a runover porcupine."

The lack of coincidence of three-dimensional coordinate-radials with the spherical radii and nonuniform radial length of the three-dimensional coordinate and nonperpendicular incidence of three-dimensional radials upon the spherical surfaces, has caused a heterogeneity of angles and lengths in respect to all conventional projections, which in turn has added frustration and entirely unnecessary awkwardness and complexity to the trigonometric problems of navigational science.
This unnecessary awkwardness of three-dimensionality has also promoted the 'calculus'in'blind' calculations, where visual transformations might otherwise have accrued to a simplified multidimensional spherical trigonometry.

Center
Index Entry
You cannot improve on the center. The center is where we function in omnidirectional observation. If you were linear-- like that-- maybe you could learn to jump a little higher or run a little faster... But at the center, you can't improve upon it.
The fact that there is lag means that we are inherently aberrated and out of phase with the absolute, the center.
Man is one way of Universe's checking up with its own principles while it can aberrate.

Centers of Equilibrious Symmetry (C.E.S.):
"In the same way that systems
Have 'Centers of Gravity' -- C.G.
And 'Neutral Axii of Gyration'
Identified by engineers as 'I'
(Systems) also have
'Centers of Omni-equilibrious Symmetry'
At which their kinetic transformings never pause
But relative to which kinetic action centers
They oscillatingly traffic. TRANSFORM
The frequencies and geometrics
Of those internally-externally coordinated trendings
Are always uniquely asymmetric
To the local systems' symmetrically coordinate
Centers of equilibrious symmetry -- C.E.S.
And because the unaasimilatable asymmetrics
Are inherently exported
These internal-external events propagate
Both inward and outward bound waves."

The tetrahedral integrity of internal (central) angles and external (surface) angles of systems permits the integration of the topological and quantum hierarchies. It is exciting that the three internal radii give us three edges of the tetrahedron's six edges; while the arc chords give us the three other of the tetrahedron's six relationships; and the center of the spheric system and the surface triangle's three corner-vertexes give us the four-vertex-events having the inherent six system relationships; which six are our coincidentally six-positive, six-negative, equieconomical vectorial freedoms. The central angles give us what we call the chords of the central-angle arcs. Thus all-system-embracing geodesic lines are expressible in angular fractions of whole circles or cycles.

Central Angles & Surface Angles:
"The edges of all spherical triangles are arcs of great circles of a sphere and those arc edges are measured in term of their central angles (i.e., from the center of the sphere). But plane surface triangles have no inherent central angles and their edges are measured in relative lengths of one of themselves or in special-case linear increments. Spherical triangles have three surface (corner) angles and three central (edge) angles."

Chain Stronger Than Its Weakest Link:
"Speaking of structures, we have in chrome-nickel-steel an example of symmetry in alloys. The chromium per se, the iron per se, about 60,000 p.s.i. tensile strength ultimate; the chromium about 70,000 pounds ultimate; the nickel 80,000 pounds ultimate. People used to say a chain is no stronger than its weakest link. So you see whichever is the weakest one ought to adulterate it. For instance, if you took peanuts and sugar and made sugar candy with nuts in it, whatever dissolves the easiest-- and the whole thing comes apart. The weakest tells you, like the weakest link in the chain. So we ought to say then of chrome-nickel-steel that it couldn't be any stronger than the 60,000 pounds of the iron. In fact this chrome-nickel-steel is very much stronger. You may say I'm being unreasonable. Maybe this chain is as strong as its strongest link. So that says out of the 80,000 the chrome still has 350,000. Well, maybe I better add up the strength of the chain. So I'm going to have a new kind of law: the chain is as strong as the sum of the strengths of all its links. So I'm going to add 60,000 iron to 70,00 chromium and that gives me 130,000; to which I add 80,000 for the nickel. That comes to 210,000. Then I add in the manganese-- 250,000 total. But chrome-nickel steel is 350,000, or 50 percent stronger than the sum"

RBF Definitions
"People are afraid of change and I find that these conditioned reflexes of fear are just overwhelming. People don't like to admit fear because they are so full of fear. And they are full of fear because of the unknown, of how little man really knows, and so afraid that those dependent on them are going to be in jeopardy. So we have a really basic fear of change and it's very, very difficult to cope with that conditioned reflex.
"Hence, we have to be comprehensive in our thinking, to be infinitely tolerant, to understand rates of change, to understand the inertia, to understand the fear. We must avoid doing things that will excite the fear and do everything that will eliminate it. I don't mean then to eliminate challenge-- for challenge we must have. We will continue to have challenge because the Universe is continually changing and we are going to continue to be confronted with the new. We are here to be problem-solvers; that's our function in the Universe. And we have the capability and the responsibility....

One of the myths of the moment suggests that wealth comes from individual bankers and capitalists. This concept is manifest in the myriad of charities that have to beg alms for the poor, disabled, and helpless, young and old in general. These charities are a holdover from the old pirate days when it was thought that there would never be enough to go around. Counseled by our bankers, our politicians say we can't afford the warring and the Great Society too. And because of the mythical concept that the wealth which is dispersed is coming from some magically secret private source, no free and healthy individual wants that 'handout' from the other man, whoever he may be, nor does the individual wish to be on the publicly degrading dole."

Man first applied his newly won tools, of derived superior advantage of measurement-in-principle by realizing the predictable behavior of energy interactions, in shaping the designs of his accelerated velocity and magnitude extensions, his hurled, rolled, levered devices, his shots and ships. This priority of application was natural to man's having in boyhood thrown stones and sticks, hour after hour, into water, against rocks, through membranes and having later tried progressive acceleration in slingshots, archery, and guns, and still later in propelled carriers in general.
The second derivative advantage accrued initially to the plotting of the data relative not only to the records of his running and jumping, but to his javelin-throwing sports, as well as accelerated mechanical novelties of impelled, flown, floated, wheeled, slid, levered, and geared devices.
Turning to gain momentum, he could, unencumbered, jump over a six-foot bar; then, paradoxically, encumbering himself with a long pole, he could run with the same speed to vault over a twelve-foot bar.

Next he accelerated his personal conveyance, accelerating the evolution of his own extension from, for instance, the echoed voice of a poling raftsman to the forwardly informative radar manipulations of the stratojet piloting airman.
"In order to apply the same degrees of skillfully interpolated advantage of knowledge in principle: of position, direction, and relative acceleration, to man's immediate, everyday, and far less 'exciting' environment-shaping, he must be able to write the cogent formula of comprehensive functions of the coordinate system of his own physical complex-- of his life (personal, family, and species) as reciprocally embraced by the complex of dynamic Universe.

'We find Euler and Gibbs coming together in the vertexial bonds, or polyhedral 'corners,' or point convergency of polyhedral lines. The bonds have nothing to do with 'faces,' and 'edges,' per se. Two bonds provide the hinge which is an edge bonding. One bond gives a universal joint. Triple or areal bonding gives rigidity.
'Mass attraction is always involved in bonding. You may not have a bond without attraction, mass or magnetic (integral or induced), all of which are precessional effects. As the Sun's pull on the Earth produces orbiting, orbiting electrons produce directional field pulls. This was not considered by Euler because he was dealing with aspects of a single system.
'Gibbs requires the mass attraction without saying so. Mass attraction is necessary to produce a bond. Gases may be tetrahedrally bonded singly, corner-to-corner, or as a universal joint. Gibbs does not say this. But I do.'

"As man's knowledge of chemical element interalloying improves it becomes apparent that critically effective mass attractive atomic proximities are intensified by symmetrical congruence. The mass attractions increase as of the second power with each halving of the distance of atomic interstices-- the length of structural tensile members, such as those of suspension bridge cables, relative to a given cross section of cable diameter, or of any given stress. The overall length trends to amplify in ever multiplying degree thus approaching infinite lengths with no cross section at all. Incredible? No!"

"In 1885 van't Hoff demonstrated to organic chemists that all organic chemistry is tetrahedrally configured. We have tetrahedra vertex to vertex: single bond. A constellation of tetrahedra linked together entirely by such universal jointing, which is called single bonded, uses lots of space and is very characteristic of the gases. Engineers speak of a single bond as 'pin ended.' Double vertex: double bond. Two vertexes line up to form what engineers call a 'hinge.' A constellation of tetrahedra interlinked only with double or hinge bonding is as yet flexible, but sum-totally as an aggregation and space-filling complex, is noncompressible-- as are liquids.
"When tetrahedra are attached to one another by three vertexes they are triple bonded. Engineers call triple bonds 'fixed ends.' They are rigid-- or they are stable like three-point landings of airplanes, or like three-legged stools an uneven ground, or, like camera tripods. Quadrivalent: four bonded-- as when soft light weight carbon contracts to form dense diamond. All four vertexes are congruent."

All of the metals thus far x-ray diffraction analyzed, 35 years later, have proven to be tetrahedronally coordinated but in a great variety of nonvertexial associations. Instead of the tetrahedra being coordinated vertex to vertex in the metallic assemblages, their centers of gravity are usually congruently coordinate. Sometimes the metals are also mid-edge coordinated. Those are the metals."

"The openmost condition or single bonding corresponds in flexibility or mutability with the behavior of gases. The medium packed condition or double bonded hinged arrangement corresponds to the behaviors of liquid aggregates. The closest packing triple bonded fixed-end arrangement corresponds with rigid structural molecular compounds; the closest packing concept which was developed in respect to spherical aggregates only with their concave octa and vector equilibrium spaces between spheres, overlooks a much closer packed condition of energy structures, which however had been comprehended in organic chemistry, that of quadrivalente and four-fold bonding which corresponds to outright congruence of the octahedra or tetrahedra with themselves. When carbon transforms from its soft, pressed coke, carbon-black powder, or charcoal arrangement to its diamond arrangement it converts from triple bonding or so-called closest arrangement to quadrivalence. We might call this self-congruence packing, as a single tetrahedron arrangement in contradistinction to closest packing as a neighboring group arrangement of spheres."

"You come then to the very extraordinary mystery of what is life. For instance, it does seem to manifest me, physical abstractions. The principles themselves could not be principles in having beginnings and endings; they are inherently eternal. We have discovered a number of principles operating in Universe none of which contradict the others, and all of which are interaccommodative. So that there is such an integrity of interaccommodation in these eternal, weightless abstract principles. . . Something which can only be discovered by intellect and it apparently implies an a priori intellect, because you discover the reliabilities. This is all that I mean by an a priori intellect, testing the validity of its principles, that it invents a game called 'life' where part of the principles are that there are no straight lines, only waves. It would be a fantastic kind of a game, like chess, where it's not just in a plane but omnidirectionally played and it can double back on itself, where every move has six moves. There are six parts to every move. And if you are playing it at a different frequency from the other moves, then"

RBF Definitions
So we begin to think about the game of Universe with all its degrees of freedom of motion, where we find that there are apparently six positive and six negative degrees of freedom in relation to any one event. It isn't a game where either or all works. It is a very complicated kind of chess game where from any point any one of the men can be moved 12 different ways.
"Suppose we start with Universe as a closed system of complementary patterns that is regenerative, that is adequate to itself, that has at any one moment for any one of its subpatterns 12 degrees of freedom. There is an enormous complexity of choice. We will start playing the game and it is the most complicated game of chess that has ever been played. We start to play the game with Universe. But there must be an integrity from now on. You made that move-- and from there you can only make so many moves. The number of moves that can be made are really billionsfold or quadrillionfold the sum total of the complexity of the moves that can be made in Universe."

I think our young world is discontented with what they were told by religions, and their dogmatic interpretations, and the assumed identity of the significance of the experience which came along with religion. They're getting out from under, very much as a child. A little child and a great scientist both want experimental information, they don't want axioms, they don't want dogma, they want to find out their own. (Tearing a piece of tissue paper.)... Does this hold together? Can I hold on to that when I'm falling? No I can't. I've got to find out. A child is apt to find out very directly and personally. He's not going to believe anything anybody says. 'You just hold on to that and it won't tear.' The child says, 'I'm going to find out whether it tears or not by ripping it.' So the child is a scientist. Society in its great ignorance has been subject to the most powerful leader. The leader said, 'All right, gentlemen, I'm running this place. These are the rules and you've got to get on, and I like this minister and he's got a religion that suits me fine. And you all catch on.'

At any rate, the young world is getting out from under, and it is looking for its own meanings. It is really a child that has not been discouraged too much and is out seeking very very vigorously.
"The fact is you don't have to teach being truthful. The child by itself says, 'That's what I see. That's what I smell,' because that's the equipment he has and that's the reaction he's getting.

It's taught when the children are quite young, and then once when people begin to get on, everyone's playing poker and playing politics, in corporations and governments, how to get on, look after your family.

They really dare to get out from under and have also been attracted by moving pictures. Moving pictures have made visible the visualizations you had just through the novel of yesterday or through history, and it's very appealing to see this character whether it's an imaginary Sir Galahad, or it's an interpretation of Genghis Khan, or whoever it is. Billions and billions have been spent on getting these images in the heads of children because they would like for the moment to try out being a Genghis Khan looking character, or to be Sir Galahad. Well why not? I certainly as a little child enjoyed this sort of thing tremendously, and pretty soon the grownups said,'You've got to stop.'

"People of the older world are so apprehensive for the young. They see the young are going to encounter the pains that they have encountered. They are continually cautioning. As the new life reaches out, they say 'Darling, you'll get burnt. You better not do that.' And so we find the valves getting shut off in all our love. Then when the parents don't say to the child, 'You better not do that,' and the child is exploring, trying to understand tension and pulling on a cable and suddenly the lamp comes off the table on to their head. And they say, 'Why didn't somebody say 'Don't'? Or 'Why is that there?' So that they get discouraged, either by the grownups or the kind of environment the grownups have organized about themselves with loose lamps... and so forth.
"I'm quite confident it could all be avoided. But we have to realize that every little child is a superb laboratory. Watch the child tearing paper. It tears all kinds of paper. And having torn some fairly common newspaper and wrapping paper, it's then liable to get into your best books in the library and wanting to tear them. Because your child has to find out what it is when he holds on to it-- and what's not going to tear when he really needs it."

That child is very aware of gravity, to start off with. The child tries to stand up, and gravity brings it back down again-- very vehemently. And he learns this sliding out of bed, having gravity act as a brake while he's horizontal and how gravity acts as an accelerator when he's vertical. He wants to have some way to rest himself, but he can't get back to the horizontal, so he has a feeling for that tension, something he can hold on to. So I find every child, then, is really a brilliantly designed laboratory, trying to find out what the reliable behaviors are in order to be able to employ them methodically. I would think-- in view of the fact that there really are fundamentals of structure, of tensions and compressions; there are fundamentals of mechanics-- that we ought to be able to really make available to the child exactly what it needs to get the very best information, in way where they won't get hurt and where nobody will be tempted to say 'Don't.'

When a little child pushes a spoon to the edge of the table and it falls off and the parents pick it up and put it back. And then the child does it again. ... And if after it does it about ten times, the parents say, 'Maybe I've got a dumb child here.' But the child is so normal to Universe that if he did this out in space the spoon would just stay where he put it. It wouldn't fall off at all. This child has a very healthy surprise at this phenomenon going on. Nothing is quite so prominent in a child's life. His father is not always around but gravity is always there. And every time he tries to stand up-- Boom! Down he goes again! Everything keeps going this way. Now I find that because our Earth is so big we don't seem to see this thing being pulled toward that. Because the Earth's mass is so very great and this little mass here (on the table) is so tiny. That's the prominent one, so friction is dominant. But we don't tend to see it, to experience this falling-in.

"The age-long fallacial propensity which has frustrated adult man's adequate conceptioning of Universe is that of spontaneously assuming that Universe must consist of a simultaneously unit conceptuality-- ergo, of simultaneous geometry or shape, i.e., a simultaneous structure. What is the shape of the Universe? What are its boundaries? These are unitary, simultaneous, static questions. They have no logical answer for Universe, though finite, is a nonsimultaneous structure. Children know this better than their parents through their innate conceptioning as yet unspoiled by erroneous logic. They remember the juggler putting a simultaneous array in the sky with nonsimultaneous tosses. The childhood representational pictures depict their dynamically arrayed concept of the 'whole world' inventory, of mentally juggled arrays of nonsimultaneously occurring experiences agglomerated without any intended geometrical interrelationships. In all lands the children's spontaneous pictures contain 'the' house, trees, birds, dogs, flowers, grass, clouds, stars, the Sun and the Moon.

"Children conduct their spontaneous explorations and experiments with naive perceptivity. They have an innate urge: first, subjectively to sort out, find order in, integratively comprehend, and synergetically memory-bank their experience harvests as intertransformability system sets, which thereafter they eagerly seek to demonstrate and redemonstrate as manifest of their comprehension and mastery of the synergetic realizability of the system's physical principles. Consequently children are the only rigorously pure physical scientists. They accept only sensorially apprehendible, experimentally redemonstrable physical evidence."

"The number one characteristic of life is awareness. The child has access only to a priori cognitions. The perception of children is innately naive: they explore and experiment spontaneously, with the urge first to sort out, and then to find order in, and finally to integratively comprehend the harvests of their daily experiences. Thus children emerge as the only rigorous, pure, physical scientists.
"Although they have the most superb imaginative faculties, when children explore they rely strategically only upon their own direct recalls of experimental evidence. With anticipatory imagination they may venture to ask: 'Suppose I do so and so--what then?'--projecting a physical experiment that they know entails pure, unprecedented risk, which they may intuitively appraise as being 'barely possible,' as for instance a ditch over which they may conceivably jump today even though it is wider than any over which they have previously leapt, and only to be attempted now because they also have learned experientially that, as they grow older and bigger, they often find that they can jump further and higher than before. 'How do I feel about it?' and 'Shall I or shall I not try' become exquisitely aesthetic questions"

China:
"Of all the complex forces operating, one of the most powerful of all is the fact that China, in order to pull 750 million people together, separated over thousands of years-- nothing would possibly do but to get out of the agricultural economy. That is the essence of what Russia took on with its 25-year plans. Russia had 80 million people die of starvation during the first two five-year plans. How do you hold people together over a long time? The only way you can do it is to exclude subversives. You have to go on the offensive and become a subversive outside: all the rest of the world is your enemy. Russia had only 125 million to do it when she started it; and China had 750 million and she saw that Russia had made a great mistake by pouring its energies into armaments. So China has been very determined not to do that. So they've gone in for psychological warfare in the very, very biggest way. The idea is to go out and keep everybody so preoccupied with their own mess as to leave them alone.
"The psycho-guerrilla warfare is fantastic and it takes many, many forms. And all the kids get involved in it because it's so brilliantly done psychologically that they don't know what they're doing."

The Latin America world is still an agricultural world; it's still a hacienda world. And it's not until you get into this other plan of industrialization-- that China is now doing, and Russia, where you go in for 25-year long pulls and a great deal of suffering and austerity-- but in the end you're going to take care of a great many more people. Very much higher standards are coming. My only hope for Latin America is that China will convince the entire world that success is possible for all men everywhere. China is going to be much more successful much earlier than anybody expected her to be. That's one of the most fortunate things I can see in history. They are going to accomplish their industrialization really very rapidly. And they are brilliant; the Chinese are just inherently brilliant. They have a fantastic amount of experience gathered over thousands and thousands of years and they really are philosophically very powerful people. Any students I've ever had who were Chinese I've found to be fantastically keen. Once China gets off this business of protecting herself against being corrupted from outside and becomes successful, she'll completely stop the offensive against the other fellow and will begin to disseminate technology and information in a very brilliant way.

"I'm running into this in India. India could very easily be put upon by the sword and thought to be inferior. I find their courage about good thinking very strong. I think they will start doing very logical things in a hurry. Both China and India. And it will get the Latin Americans over the hump while they get industrialized. The trouble is that Latin America is still completely immersed in agriculture which is the thing that doesn't work.
"But the largest patterns of industrialization will never be done in terms of countries. The idea of 'countries' was never more than a convenience to the Great Pirates, the men of power who divide and conquer. The Great Pirate is glad to have everyone speaking different languages and all those things. That's all breaking up and we'll have the young people out of the Third World mixing with World Man everywhere and they will simply become successful along with an ever-larger proportion of world man. None of these economies can be self-supporting in the terms of industrialization, because the chemical elements which are necessary aren't present in any one place.

"We are very tiny. We are only 200 million and" in China "one deals with billions. Our own interpretation of our own experience is not even mildly adequate. I find it so affected by bias that we view it only as the inside of our own triangle. China is the big triangle; we are the small one. They are liable to be a little bigger than we are about our misunderstandings and differences in general, because they have had more experience. The Orient's social and intellectual process has been going on in continuity for a longer time than has our 'Euro-American' transplant, though we probably have all been on the Earth for the same amount of time. In their 5,000 years of continuously recorded experience, the Chinese have been seeking for those generalized principles constituting natural law, in respect to which they might hopefully develop social conventions or law. There is an intuitive objection on their part to all that is artificially frustrating to the success of all mankind. The erroneously taught Greek bias, which characterizes 'our side's' superiority complex, seems invalid to China."

A sphere "is a system in which the most economical relationships between embracingly adjacent foci are the great circle chords and not the arcs. This is why pi (π) is irrelevant. Physics finds that nature always employs the most economical means. Being shorter, chordal distances are more economically traversed than arc detouring arcs. All the chords between external points of systems convergewith one another concavely and convexly-- that is with angles around each external point always adding to less than 360°."

"P1 is irrelevant in synergetics because the sphere is not experimentally demonstrable and the tetrahedron is the minimum sphere. Compound curvature starts with the tetrahedron. P1 drops out because chords are more economical than arcs. Chords of an omnidirectional system never add up to 360° around a point. They are always geodesics."

"Most children like to collect things. At four I started to collect documents of my own development as correlated with world patterns of developing technology. Beginning in 1917, I determined to employ my already rich case history, as objectively as possible, in documenting the life of a suburban New Englander, born in the Gay Nineties (1895)-- the year automobiles were introduced, the wireless telegraph and the automatic screw machine were invented, and X-rays were discovered; having his boyhood in the turn of the century; and maturing during humanity's epochal graduation from the inert, materialistic 19th into the dynamic 20th century. I named my documentation the Chronofile.
"As the era of this case history loomed into greater perspective for me, as readable in the Chronofile, it became more accurately identifiable as that which, on the one hand, terminated Sir Isaac Newton's normally 'at rest' world of myriadly and remotely isolated hybrid cultures, to which change was anathema; and, on the other, opened Einstein's normally 'dynamic' omni-integrating world culture to which change has come to seem evolutionarily inevitable." - Cite Citizen of 21st.

I had a task during World War I of being secret aide to the admiral in command of the cruiser transports that carried the troops across the Atlantic and I had all the secret records of all the movements of all the ships and all the people who were on them. And when the war was over I had the task of putting those into shape for the official records for the U.S. Navy. The kind of record keeping we had to keep was chronolog-ical; I thought it was quite interesting that my experience before the Navy was that people kept kind of static kinds of files in terms of names and topics, but in the Navy important records were kept chronologically. I thought it might be interesting if I took my own private papers concerning the troubles I had had at Harvard, and everything, not just culling out the attractive aspects of my life, but really keeping the whole record-- most of which was not so attractive-- and putting it all into chronological order. I did so; and I asked my mother for any papers she had regarding me and I put them all into order.

"There were times when if I recieved a bill twenty times l didn't have to put it in twenty times, just two or three -- and then I would put in the letter from the lawyer concerning the case. I found that the language of lawyers about overdue bills was very interesting. I think it has changed as the years have gone on. I have kept the record faithfully, and there are now about 500 volumes. I am quite certain, looking at it, that it has made it possible for me to see myself, and to see myself very objectively."

With a thermionic valve you develop heat as in a radio tube. when you close a switch in your house you tumble a set of dominoes all the way to the generating station and the station tumbles it back to the house. This is fundamental to circuitry, but man tends to see it only as one way. It doesn't matter whether it's capitalists and communists, or republicans and Democrats. We have a choice. We can do the right things for the wrong reasons. Or we can do the right things for the right reasons. And if it's all minuses or all pluses, it still comes out as an aggregate plus-- which is what evolution is doing. It doesn't matter whether all agree to be communists, or whether all agree to be capitalists. Evolution will pay no attention.

"Why do we want a city? We don't start off with cities being a priori to man on our planet. It's something that has evolved. Most things about our cities are completely obsolete. . . I'll have to say how the cities occurred: They really started with wars. If you go around Europe you'll still find yourself going through the city wall gates. . . They started being places where goods are bought, where caravans and trading ships began to find themselves in confluence by nature, where they could be in anchorage. And they develop great warehouses and it really gets to be a kind of exploitation trap.
"Then Henry Ford found that it costs you money to have things in warehouses. They were unnecessary. You could have your goods stored in transit. . . Everybody's trying to get out from under all the monopolies and all the exploitations. . . In the Greeks time the thinkers were in the mountains and on the beaches, and the city was occupied with the goods and warehouses controlled by the fighters and walls. All that has changed but man had the metaphysical deployed and the physical concentrated in the city."

So I say the old city has really disappeared and the city does have a new function: people converge on libraries and get together to think rather than to make.

"It is the essentially mobile nature of man that makes the modern city an anachronism because it is a stable phenomenon trying to adapt itself to the mobile needs of men...
"The first towns or cities grew up as interference patterns of one path of communication with another.
"A city is, in essence, nothing but a great service establishment created to serve the needs of the transient. As such the city has basically nothing to do with the production of food or goods, but only to arrange for their transfer. Man deploys from the city for his physical life and to the city for his metaphysical life. The parts of the city such as the docks and the wharves and rail terminals are incidental to the main business of the city which is the transfer of information (credit is a perfect example). The wharves and the terminals are there because of the coincidence of the interference patterns of their transport and the physical mobility of man reinforced by the fact that man before the days of credit most often traveled with the goods that he manufactured and owned. Transshipment of goods took place physically in the city because"

In the future the use of a city for the physical transfer of goods will be silly. Cans and frozen food packs can take food from any place to any other place on Earth. Satellites can gather and transmit information as to the total food supply on Earth and can tell where it's in surplus and where it is lacking. The redistribution process, logically, would never take it through a city.
"The same holds for the processing of goods, but with an added reason: technology. For most of the technological improvements were and still are a product of the intellectual communication between men that takes place in a city. Thus the tanning of leather took place because of the coincidence of technology, hides, and chemicals. But with the technique mastered, there is no need to haul all that stuff into the crowded city and then move it back out again.
"Thus the city has another purpose: it is there that the intellectual engagement takes place technologically. And since

"technological activity takes place in the main area of an institute of higher education, the next and most proper function of a city is as research laboratory and as university. I predict that the great urban centers of the world will deploy all of their physical activity to the suburbs or the countryside and will concentrate on fulfilling the intellectual needs of men. New York City within 25 years if not sooner, will become one big information center dealing in research, education, and information (credit). If there is manufacture it will be an anachronism. The only manufacture that should be left in New York City should be the manufacture of assemblages of information such as typewritten letters, which today in cost outnumber the physical manufactures of the cities by many tens of millions of dollars. Mayor Lindsay's program to hold what industry they have and to attract more is a mistake of enormous proportions.

Today in New York you have exactly the opposite of the Greek city of many centuries ago. Then the thinker lived out of the city, and all the metaphysical 'weightless' activities such as thinking were conducted off in the remote places like Delphi, and the thinker only came into the city to speak once in a while, as Socrates did. Then and up until our own time cities were places where the physical, as opposed to the metaphysical, was concentrated-- all the warehousing, all the manufacturing, all the wealth. This was really a very bad situation because of the power the exploitative gangster-rulers held over the people who lacked mobility and therefore had to stay in one place and work for very menial wages. Then Henry Ford broke this monopoly with the mass production of wheels. Now you have all the manufacturing and warehousing being deployed outside the city, and all the metaphysical functions being concentrated inside. That is what is happening in New York. It is becoming a metaphysical abstract communications center. The only things that are being produced are with typewriters and calculating machines, a lot of figures, a lot of 'weightless,' or practically 'weightless,' things.

In our earlier cities the city was a confluence of the physical; the metaphysical, the thinking of man was goin- on off in the remote places, in mountains, the proverbial scholar, when he really wanted to do thinking, went off into Shangri La. ... Whereas the metaphysical used to be deployed and the physical was convergent in the city, now all the physical has gone out of the city and what is happening is that the people who go into the city go in there for the metaphysical-- for the abstract. The only manufacturing going in there is typewriters making symbols on paper: tickertapes. We have then the city becoming the center of the abstract intercourse of man, where he goes in either to exchange equities for goods. .. cities are now where everybody is coming together and the automation and the technology has gone out completely onto the farm."

"Now I'll give you something we can talk about like 'might makes right.' And this stone and compressiveness was really the might. Big massiveness did the trick. And really to understand how man over the ages was moved by this rather than his tensile ability... More or less his intellectual ability. And that was very inferior; at best it was only one-tenth of the compressor. Now man gradually learned to make metal out of the stone and the first thing he made was daggers. That's all he had. Then he could make some of the bigger swords, and then maybe armour. Armour for the head man and then a little armour for several of the soldiers. But it was still rather negligible.
"It is not until we get to production of steel in 1851, only a little more than a century ago, that we suddenly have steel available in a big way. Production of steel was 1851... what is called common steel at that time. Common steel came up to 50,000 pounds tensile strength. In 1851 tension came to parity with compression. And with this ability then to have much longer spans to hold walls together. So men used then not stone walls but steel beams. Or they might use a long, wooden beam with a steel rod below it to keep it up in the middle. You saw stone building with iron stars out here."

"We have a rod across to keep the walls from bursting out. We see how to do away with having to have stone buttresses. So we have tension suddenly coming in only about a little over a century ago. Tensile came of importance. And there have been higher tensile abilities on the sea with fiber-made ropes, but they rotted pretty quickly. They were too stretchable to use in building on the land. With that tension coming to parity with compression, men suddenly had much bigger span. And that's the beginning of his doing a lot of work inside-- indoors. This came along exactly the same time as the dynamo. This is why Abraham Lincoln... the Civil War was really the beginning of men being able to do things in the colder North, where they had steel for boilers and where they could begin to control the heat inside. They are beginning to do things which produce wealth, or higher advantage for man, under convert, under controlled conditions, as he had been doing out in the fields up to then. That's why we really had the Civil War: the only difference between people doing things for the North under controlled conditions versus people who were doing things in the South with their agriculture out in the open. From this time on tensile strength begins to increase very rapidly."

Climate & Intellect:
"Where, Geographically speaking, of a priori unique environment continuities, the inherent periodicity of the occurrence of interference is at a relatively low frequency, then the rate of dissipation of ignorance is proportionally low, and vice versa.
"The relatively lowest inherent periodicity of interference of forceful variables-- of experience in the dynamic environment (geography)-- occurs in the dry land near sea level in the region of the equator. The periodic frequency of interferences by physical variables increases outwardly from the Earth's center into the colder climates of mountain and toward the Earth poles.... Sum totally on Earth the residual vanities and superstitions of the ego bulk up most obviously in the warm and mild climates, originally most favorable to the naked, ignorant man, and are most rapidly dispersed and replaced with intellectual ordering in the environments of highest frequency of unprecedented intensities of interference, penetrated now by man at will by virtue of his contriving, of realizations in complex principles."

Closed System:
"Every system, as a subdivision of the total experience of Universe, must accommodate traffic of inbound and outbound events and inward-outward relationships with other systems' aspects of Universe. Effective thinking is systematic because intellectual comprehension occurs only when the interpatterning of experience events' star foci interrelationships return upon themselves. Then the case history becomes 'closed.' A system is a patterning of enclosure consisting of a conceptual aggregate of recalled experience items, or events, having inherent insideness, outsideness, and omni-aroundness."

Closed System:
"The physical Universe of associative and disassociative energy was found to be a closed, but nonsimultaneously occurring, system, with its separately occurring events being mathematically measurable, i.e., weighable and equatable. But the finite physical Universe did not include the metaphysical aspects of Universe. All the unweighables, such as any and all our thoughts and all the abstract mathematics are weightless. The metaphysical aspects of Universe were therefore thought by the physical scientists to be 'open' and therefore defied 'closed systems' analysis. I have found, however, . . . that total Universe, including both its physical and metaphysical behaviors and aspects is scientifically definable."

← Closed System | Closed System of Critical Proximity →
Index Entry
Then Einstein, Planck and other leading scientists said . . . 'we must discover what it is we see when we observe new life forming. it could be that when energy disassociates here, it may be reassociating somewhere else. And that is what all subsequent experimentation proved to be the case. The scientists found that the energy redistribution always added to 100 per cent. The scientists then formulated a new description of the physical universe which they called the new 'law of conservation of energy,' which said that 'experiments disclose that energy can neither be created nor lost.' Energy is not only conserved but it is also finite. It is a closed system. The Universe is a mammoth perpetual motion process. We then see that the part of our wealth which is physical energy is conserved. It cannot be exhausted-- cannot be spent, which means exhausted. We realize that the word 'spending' is now scientifically meaningless; it is obsolete.

Closest Packing of Rods:
"Just as six balls may be closest packed around a nuclear ball in a plane, six rods or wires may be closest packed around a nuclear rod or wire in a cluster. When the seven wires are thus compacted in a parallel bunch they may be twisted to form a cable of hexagonal cross-section, with the nuclear wire surrounded by the other six. The hexagonal pattern of cross section persists as additional layers may be symmetrically added to the cluster. This demonstrates a circumferentially finite system in universal geometry."

"The most economical spherical agglomerations, i.e., 'the closest packing of spheres,' we now find to hold the mathematical clues to the principles of coordination governing natural structure-- governing the dynamic, vectorial geometry of the atomic nucleus as well as of the atoms themselves. Over and over again we are confronted by nature obviously formulating her structures with beautiful spherical agglomerations. This began to interest me very much. I found that spheres coordinate, not in 90 degreeness, but in 60 degreeness. Just take three billiard balls and you will find that they pack beautifully into a triangle. If you arrange four of them on the billiard table in a square they tend to be restless and to roll around on each other and if compacted to a condition of stability they form a 60-degree angled diamond shape made of two triangles.
"The physicists find that spheres always form omnitriangulated structures in their closest packing. The frequency phenomena studied in quantum mechanics are all predicated upon agglomerations of spheres of given-- i.e., known-- radii. All the coordinating is done in spheres of given sizes whose radii are"

"subdivided finitely in modular wavelengths of discrete frequencies. Furthermore, spheres of given sizes are always compacted in omnitriangulation of 60 degreeness, so that six spheres pack most tightly around one sphere on a billiard table and 12 spheres around one in omnidirectional compacting. Additional rings of spheres may be tightly compacted around the sphere on the billiard table as symmetrical hexagon patterns and additional layers may be added omnidirectionally around one nuclear sphere in symmetrical vector equilibrium growth. The number of spheres in the successively enclosing shells are 12, 42, 92, 162, 252, and so on, which calculates as ten times the frequency (of radial or circumferential modular subdivisions) to the second power, plus two.

One is an open condition of the vector equilibrium and the other is a contracted one of the octahedron. . . . We could take the original vector equilibrium and bend the edges inwardly and make it concave, or I could bend it outwardly and make spheres. It has possibly the first degree of contraction from vector equilibrium: it becomes a sphere or a space. If it bends inwardly it becomes spaces; and if it bends outwardly, they become spheres. We can then begin to call a space a concave vector equilibrium and we can call a sphere a convex vector equilibrium. Or we can call a space a concave octahedron-- which is one of the other kinds of transformations."

Closest Packing of Spheres: Concave Octahedra and Concave Vector Equilibria:
"Every vector equilibrium became an octahedron and every octahedron became a vector equilibrium. Which is to say that every space became a sphere, and every sphere became a space. But it is not just a one-to-one transfer. It is a two-to-one. There is also an interesting precessional play which will spiral one way or the other because there are two tetrahedra involved. There are two kind of octahedra involved and you have two kinds of spaces. I couldn't just say that a sphere became a space and a space becomes a sphere because there are two shapes of spaces. One was an octahedronal space and the other was a vector equilibrium space, so in this transformation some of it is going into one kind and one into the other. At any rate, we see for the first time a really complete change which would be something like our dropping a stone in the water. .."

Cloud Chamber:
"When a physicist bombards a group of atoms in a cloud chamber with a neutron, he gets an interference. When the neutron runs into a nuclear component: (1) it separates the latter into smaller components; (2) they bounce acutely apart (reflection); (3) they bounce obliquely (refraction); (4) they combine, mass attractively. The unique angles in which they separate or bounce off identify both known or unknown atomic-nucleus components."

Cloud Chamber:
"Euclidian and noneuclidian geometry assume that you can have a plurality of lines going through the same point at the same time. Yet you find empirically that you cannot get two actions through the same point at the same time. If one is there, the other impinges on it. As a physicist bombards a group of atoms in a cloud chamber with a neutron, he gets an interference. The neutron runs into a nuclear component and either separates the latter in to smaller components or they bounce apart. The unique angles in which they separate or bounce off identify both known or unknown atomic nucleus components."

At the opening press conference of... Habitat, I was asked to make a public statement regarding the Club of Rome and its 1973 publication of 'The Limits to Growth.' I made the statement that the Club of Rome had a few weeks earlier--April 1976--issued a complete public reversal of its limits-to-growth concept. It had done so in a meeting in Philadelphia at the University of Pennsylvania Museum. There had been so many contradictions of the Club of Rome's 1972 pronouncement of the limits to growth that they had completely reconsidered their position. I said at the press conference that I felt that the Club of Rome's first statement was schemingly funded by vastly wealthy interests who were continuing to do what money had done in the past: i.e., to rationalize selfishness. Assuming the political concept of fundamental inadequacy of life-support for all the humans around our planet, selfishness had been able to say, 'I have those for whom I'm responsible and because there is not enough life-support for all, I am obliged to do various things that are utterly and completely selfish.'

Club of Rome: Limits to Growth:
"organized capitalists' selfishness to justify to the world public why their wealth would be unable to do anything about the third world. The initial Smithsonian Institution announcement of the 'Limits to Growth' was based on work done by an MIT professor of computer sciences who was given his input data by other MIT specialists. I and many others, particularly our World Game group, were able to make well-documented and fortunately effective public announcement that the Club of Rome's 'Limits to Growth' pronouncement was a sadly ignorant statement. For instance, its computer programmers cited only the very small remaining percentages of the world's unmined metal ore reserves and were manifestly unaware that the metals on our Earth are continually being melted out of their last use and being recirculated in amounts greatly exceeding the tonnage of metals being newly mined and added into the cumulative circulatory system approximately 3 to 1, while all the while the interim gains in technological 'know how' take care of ever greater numbers of humans per each pound of recirculating metal or other chemical substance into which technology invests its ever improving know-how, with the result that it is now engineeringly feasible to take care of all humanity at an unprecedentedly"

"I told the general news conference at Vancouver that the
Club of Rome's ignorance was occasioned by the overspecial-
ization of scientists. I then told the press conference
that I thought the Club of Rome had this year manifested
extraordinary courage and integrity in being willing to
completely reverse their public position--when they announced
in Philadelphia that they had found on reinspection that
their data was inadequate, ergo, their resulting conclusions
were wrong.
"Later that week I received an invitation to lunch with Mr.
Peccei, president of the Club of Rome, and at the luncheon
he personally verified their reversed position. I applauded
his integrity."

"You must understand that I'm not playing at all the same kind of game that was played by the Club of Rome where they took the well-known data regarding all the inefficient ways that people do things-- that's all they knew about. They did not know that metals recirculate. They did not know that every time the metals recirculate I can get two times as much performance for twice as many people with the same metal. They didn't have the right information to start off with. I wouldn't be at all surprised if we used their formula and their model but gave them my data, they would come out with the same conclusion I have: that the world will work.
"Forrester and I both received or Doctor's at Notre Dame last week-end and I had some very pleasant words with him. He agreed that we should have a considerable talk. He told me he had lectured for the first time in 1949 at MIT and that he's heard a lot about me, particularly since his report came out... And people have asked me in public what I think about the Club of Rome and I've had to say that I felt the data they had was inadequate and inept... Forrester is a computer man."

"I would assume that my kind of input with the Forrester models might really come out with a reversal to what they've traditionally taken there. But even if they did, we'd still have to get to all the people of the world, China, and Russian, and so forth. I think they would be favorably impressed. I think my kind of data could be put on the television through our World Game and make it visible to human beings... then the rates at which you could make those buildings and they could be delivered by air, what they would weigh and how much material in the world it takes to produce them, and what kinds of standards of living you'd be able to get with them. Russia and China would probably not want to ban any kind of television program of that coming in over the satellites. I would be glad to have the MIT-Club of Rome group employ my data. In a sense I'm rather surprised they didn't."

Such couplings of identical articulations have frequently occurred and seem now to be as plentiful as the double star population of the heavens-- some natural, some counterfeit.
"However, science has theoretical explanation of the natural phenomenon.
"The mathematician Brouwer demonstrated (Bouwer's Theorem) that when a random set of points are randomly stirred, that one of the points will at completion of stirring be proven not to have moved in respect to the total motions of all the other points, i.e., one point will have remained the center of gravity (reference - ? Ed.) of the total complex movement. If the total motion were terminated earlier, or later, another point might prove to have been the central point of the total motion."

When Pauli, the physicist, developed what is known as Pauli's Exclusion Principle which freed atomic explorers from a dilemma imposed by Bohr's model of the atom's electron behavior and greatly advanced the understanding of the atom. Pauli suggested and was proven by experiment to have been cogent as follows: each electron has its exact counterpart cofunctioning with it in an oposite hemisphere of its system. Pauli's Exclusion Principle has since been found to be operative beyond the realm of the atom: it apparently applies to all systems investigated, large or small. It has become the basic mathematical theorem central to quantum and wave mechanics and an important tool of scientific probing. Pauli's generalized principle indicates that every action, point, or subsystem foci (as a component system of a larger system has a counterpart-- me and my shadow-- action, point, or subsystem foci) somewhere operative in Universe. And when the other or counterpart has been found the area of its functioning will prove to be the 'other side' of the system of operation involved, thus isolating and discovering the system unique to any point. The other side could be the light side vs. the serious side of any question, and the size of the question could be discovered by the relative positioning

"Now we discover that Pauli's Principle and Brouwer's Theorem are neatly combinable, for each hemispherical aspect of any system has one point which is central or polar to any and all random action events within that hemisphere as of any one moment of observation. That is, one point in the hemisphere seems to be constantly identifiable as central to the events of any one moment of inventory (a typical viewpoint of any observer of Universe); and Pauli's principle shows that the other hemisphere must contain a counterpart of that neutralized action center: and these two hemispherical counterparts despite other permitted random idiosyncrasies of their respective hemispheres, become the inherent neutral axis terminals of their mutual system. Around the axis of these two coupled and 'motionless' observer points, their system or world of total and randomly populated yet dynamically equilibrious events revolves-- even though each of the two identically behaving observers in their respective and otherwise seemingly differently behaving hemispheres may be unaware of the other because of the other's invisibility on the opposite side of their seemingly"

I have penned in a second verse which I added to my rendition in 1952, as I thought you might also enjoy humming over this one.
"I am adding the McGowan verses to my own infrequent public dome singing. -- Faithfully yours, R. Buckminster Fuller."

Cold & Vacuum:
"One way you ought to talk about the phenomena house and cold is that cold and vacuum are in physics almost identical-- that is you have energy in the presence of cold and in the presence of vacuum, and when you energy-- either as heat of kinetically accelerated gases or as radiation-- is eliminated, cold or vacuum alone remain. That is the best way for you to look at it.
"You see, when they say 'cold is coming in,' it is because energy-as-heat is dissipating so fast as to leave cold gases in your presence. Air that is cold because low in energy content moves to you so that you seem to feel cold draft, but there is no physical entity 'cold'. Temperature should be thought of as relative heat concentrations or dissipations."

Colloidal Chemistry:
"The microscopically observed structures of 'worked' steel and tree trunks are, alike, comprised of myriads of sausage-balloon-fibrous units. The science of the determination of the electrical-frictional affinities of molecules in lubricants, cohesives and aggregates, and the ratios of those agglomerations is known as colloidal chemistry. Colloidal chemistry, coupled with thermodynamics in its advanced stage (comprehending general characteristics of the energy phenomena in crystalline, liquid, and gaseous states) currently constitutes the central objective of science which seeks structurally to employ the primary electrical polarity specifics of radiation.
"In compression, a tangential agglomeration of spheroids is structurally the most satisfactory cellular arrangement since cellular elongations under compression tend to wedge and split asunder their agglomerations. In tension, however, fibrous crystalline surfaced elongations of the globular cells are most frictionally cohesive."

The octahedra strips then combine to form a space-filling array of octahedra and tetrahedra, with all lines or vectors being of identical length, and all the triangles equilateral, and all the vertexes being omnidirectionally evenly spaced from one another. This is the pattern of closest packing of spheres."

When the Earth's orbit passes through a comet's stardust plume we witness some of the comet's stardust falling in to Earth captivity, some of it igniting as it enters the atmospheric gases, some falling into Earth, and some with such acceleration as to pass only through the atmosphere leaving meager entropic dust to fall to Earth.

Throughout the last 20 years I have been meeting with and speaking to 1500 or 2000 people three or four times a week. As a consequence, I am absolutely confident that what is going on between me and an audience, as I think out loud, is absolutely metaphysical and weightless. It is understanding and meaning and has nothing to do with the length of the size of the words I am using, or the sound-wave disturbance I am making in the air, or the language I am employing. If we had no air to make sounds with, we would have to communicate with other tools. We could use electronic flash instruments and talk by dot-and-dash Morse code, or we could write and read one another. Each of us could use many telephone instruments. We could make color movie talkies and videocassetted 3-D documentaries of ourselves 'thinking out loud,' our seemingly live images appearing on our respective TV screens, but we would not be the TV sets. We would be, as we are now, only what each of us is communicating to one another in spoken words, gestures, postures, and flashes of the eye. We can't see one another; we can see only our respective communications devices. I am quite confident that life is inherently immortal.

Considering the most prominent historical data, we can say that we humans were obviously given conditioned reflexes so that we would be certain to regenerate and prosper on planet Earth. And in due course we could discover that our minds are everything and our muscles apparently naught, and we could discover further that humanity has an essential function in the Universe--in the macro-micro ranges of the great design scenario and its realization in time. An intuition is dawning in us of the integrity and immortality of the individual. Awareness is terminable, but knowledge is eternal. Comprehending and knowing are eternal."

"In the swiftly accelerating range and frequency of world peoples' comings and goings, the inherent barriers of mores, politics and language will swiftly dwindle out and disappear. All of the pattern of world affairs will become visible to all its people. Ambitions of individuals or of minorities to seize dominance of the Airocean World are inherently 'spot news.' Democratic mastery of the whole pattern is inherent and inevitable.

RBF: "What is pure? I define Universe as the sum of all men's consciously apprehended and communicated experiences. Communication can be to self or others. Without communication experience is meaningless. Without communication there can be no awareness.

This statement is a corollary of my long-held working assumption that a problem adequately stated is a problem fundamentally ripe and potential of solution.
"In seeking definitive meanings I recognize, of course that Heisenberg's principle of indeterminism forestalls absolute exactness. However, the tolerance of error is reducible. Ergo; we may approach exactitude in progressive degree. Ergo: what I mean by mutual comprehension of meanings is statable only in terms of approximately exact meanings."

Communism:
"In sociology we've got such a high frequency of asymmetry that we're permitted to get into fantastic asymmetrical extremes. That's why our sociologists have so much trouble. They're looking at special case instead of principles. And, not knowing this, they don't realize that communism induces capitalism and vice versa.* . . . Marx had classes because he had to have some balance. So he said one class would destroy the other, so then the Universe would be destroyed."

Now, when we begin to think about community and the very words, 'Habitable City,' we are finding megalopolis is occurring, so the city is almost getting to be 'city' everywhere around the world. There is a world city. There is a 'city' as man goes into various places, and many of those continuous cities are coming together as megalopolis, so the man comes into the city for his information, then he deploys from the city. We find then as the physical went out, the manufacturing the mining, the archaeology, he deploys also then for his skiing, the water skiing, the mountain skiing. The physical then, is done remotely, and the metaphysical is centralized. And he oscillates between the two. He doesn't stay put. No citizen stays put anywhere. And we have a great deal of talk about community and how wonderful community used to be, and that we are now lacking it. This is not so, but the pattern is different. Of necessity, different. I spent a good deal of my life on an island remote in Penobscot Bay in Maine. The nearest human beings were two miles away. . . You knew the characteristics of your neighbors, though you didn't see them directly-- you would see their boat, you didn't see their body. . . The thoughtfulness of this kind of neighbor,

was very great, the one for the other. The same was true out in the great western spaces. But you get in to New York City, and you get into the subways, and you are jammed bodily against ten people-- touching you-- you just couldn't be tighter, and you just can't be neighborly. There is an error that says proximity means neighborliness. There are fundamentals of what is a tolerable range within which you really can become usefully intimate with another human being, he having his degrees of freedom, not trespassing on one another, yet really getting to know each other because you choose to know each other, not because you are being forced together. So I find that every individual today has just as many friends as any human being ever had, and probably more, but they don't live next door. They don't necessarily even live on the same street. They live halfway across town, or in the next town, or halfway around the world. That's where they are. everybody has their communities... It is a wonderful kind of community, it is really knitting together as a world understanding.

"Competition will be, after all, like mountain climbing, where everybody must get to the top. It's not to leave somebody half-way where he can fall of and die. This is a different kind of a game. There are two kinds of games-- you or me and you and me. They are equally good games. The competition in the you and me is to see who can help the other most effectively-- that's the competition. Who can understand most effectively on behalf of this other man. That if you really understand it better, I'm going to honor you better. We won't be doing it on the basis of you have to do it to survive but because it's a joy to understand and it's an inspiration to understand on behalf of the other man. I live in that world realistically. I am 76, but you can see I am as excited about life as when I was four years old."

That every fundamental
Behavioral patterning in Universe
Always and only coexists
With a complementary
But non-mirror-imaged patterning.

Of the complementary inter-patternings
Produce what we sense to be reality,
Otherwise they would cancel one another
And there would be no sensoriality.

"Complementarity requires that where there is conceptuality there must be nonconceptuality. The explicable requires the inexplicable. Experience requires the nonexperienceable. The obvious requires the mystical. This is a powerful group of paired concepts generated by the complementarity of conceptuality. Ergo, we can have annihilation and yet have no energy lost."

Complementarity:
"Only in the mid-twentieth century did it become scientifically clear that unity is plural-- and, at minimum, two-- that all experimentally detectable phenomena have their unique opposites, and that the complementary opposite behaviors are never mirror images of one another.
"Science is remiss and unnecessarily prejudicial in calling one of a pair of complementary behaviors "negative." There are always much better descriptive terms. In structural systems' phenomena we have "compression" and "tension." As we tense a rope it tautens-- that is, its girth contracts. This means that the rope is also compressing in a plane at 90 degrees to its tensed axis. But tension and compression always and only coexist, as do all the fundamental complementarities such as concave and convex, or associative and disassociative, proton and neutron, male and female."

Every news reporter tries to talk about physics in terms of 'finding the building blocks of universe.' But the physicists keep trying to tell society, 'It takes fundamental complementarity, that is to say two different an complementary building blocks.' They are the proton and the neutron. The Two are intertransformable. But if one transforms to the other, the other does likewise. But they are always unique in themselves. We cannot build universe with just the rightness or leftness 'blocks' exclusively of one another.

As the complementary has the effect of cosmic integrity balancing, we realize there must be unseen syntropic events of Universe which are always reordering the environment.

Without the pulsative asymmetries and asynchronous lags The complementations would cancel out one another To centralize equilibriously, And there would be no sensoriality, brgo, no self-awareness, no life..."

Complementary Pattern:
"The meaning of a function is that it is part of a complementary pattern and there is no function existing by itself: X only in respect to Y, so your tension and compression are interfunctioning with weight variables of relative importance in the local pattern inspected."

Complex:
"Prime tetrahedra and prime octahedra do not have nuclei. In contradistinction to prime tetrahedra and prime octahedra some complex tetrahedra and complex octahedra do have a nucleus. They do not develop structurally in strict conformity to closest packing to contain an internal or nuclear ball until additional closest-packed, uniradius, sphere layers are added. Additional layers require identification as frequency of reoccurrence."

"Compound systems can only be analyzed systematically, but they cannot be considered as corner-bonded; compound systems have to be treated as face-bonded. The point is that we can never get to where there is no system: the only question is whether it is one system or compounds of systems."

Comprehensive Universe:
"The difference between the comprehensive Universe, which combines both the metaphysical and physical Universe, and the local, conceptual, physical system which we never experience and consider, is just one tetrahedron or one unity-of-twoness.
"This is to say that the difference between the finite physical Universe of energy with which physics deals and the total Universe which also includes all metaphysical phenomena-- which we used to call infinity-- is just one tetrahedron.
"The metaphysical Universe is also finite. It is just one tetrahedron more than the physical Universe.
"What man used to call infinite, I call finite; what man used to call finite, I call definite; i.e., definable-- conceptually definable. The differences are all finitely and rationally calculatable.
"The physical Universe, as we have seen, is entirely characterized by entropy-- an ever-increasing randomness, an ever-increasing diffusion as all the different and nonsimultaneous transformations and reorientations occur."

Stone and masonry could be counted upon to afford no more than 50 pounds tensile strength to the square inch. Man's structural ability seemingly favored compressive organizations on a four to one or better basis-- width and weight were amplified to increase the stabilities.

What we do with the brain is a method of storing information and retrieving it-- that's the big story there. So a computer is simply another one of those tools; it is a larger storage, & and by virtue of the fact that you can add energy into the system, you can retrieve faster. . . It can hold a number of patterns, and they're really quite complex ones, so we get the inherent synergetic results from the fact that we're getting all the juxtaposed information almost simultaneously, which our mind picks up synergetically as we get it from the computer.

This is important for the future man who in pre-computer days was certainly tending to become overspecialized-- and we know that any species to which this happens becomes extinct. We are certainly well on the way to becoming extinct when our greatest brains are concerned with the narrowest tasks, as we see in Whitehead's dilemma. The world's problems do require generalists of extraordinary ability and in large numbers because man's Universe now is composed of many of his artifacts and he has created a complex world. While computers can ask questions, they are the questions of the specialist, and to date we don't see how they can ask, let alone answer, one as complex as, say, how do nations disarm?

The computers, both large and small, are pattern processing machines of which the human brain is a prototype.

Differentiation identifies, evaluates, selects, and separates out the uniquely developing patterns. Integration discretely controls the coordination of complex interactions.

The computer has given man physical hardware which has altered his environmental circumstances without his understanding how he arrived there. This has brought about a general disenchantment with technology. Enchantment can only be sustained in those who have it, or regained by those who have lost it, through conceptual inspiration. Nothing could be more exciting than the dawning awareness of the discovery of the presence of another of the eloquently significant eternal reliabilities of Universe."

There is now a strong intuition of democratic society that comprehensivity must be regained wherefore general studies programs are emerging in strength. At the December 1962 annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science a research paper was read which showed that biological species and nations which have become extinct did so because of their becoming overspecialized. It has now developed that a prime distinction between humans and computers as intelligence machines is that the computers can easily excel as specialists, whereas the unique characteristic of the human intellect which may never be approached is that of the Universe-long complexity of feedback comprehensivity which could only be matched by a complex computer which had been building up its regeneratively introduced variable strands braiding for a period of several billion Earth years. This temporary human advantage of a few billion years' lead is about to be widely discovered and will be one of the prime strategic considerations of man's meager conscious contribution to forward events of universal evolution.

There is a trending of the computer development which is a swiftly accelerating phase of human ecology evolution. In order to understand the logistical evolution of human artifacts and their sumtotal feedback transforming effects on human ecology's total environmental transition and the letter's reciprocal modification of man's evolutionary patterning in Universe, you have to recognize that the computer can choose to do only what man can choose to do within the limits of variables of mathematical strategy. There are two strategically fundamental and diametrically opposite operations of the mathematics. One is differentiating out, and the other is integrating. Differentiation and integration-- those are really the two great diametric limit functions. Those who are expert in the development of the computer point out that it is very clear that the computer is already making man obsolete as a differentiator, that is as a 'specialist.' The computer and its very sensitive controlling subsidiary organisms which we call automation can very clearly pick out the green from the red and pick it out very much faster than the human can pick it out. It can do it all night long at 2000 degrees heat, where the human can't operate at all. So the machine as computer-- as automation-- is about to make man extinct as a specialist.

"The other-- diametric-- function of the computer is integration. And the probability is that the computer and its subsidiary automation will will not make man obsolete as an integrator for several million years-- possibly never. We introduce great complexities into integration, many variables, and the interrelationships of which we wish to comprehend, and that is what the human mind is doing all the time. I can tell you quickly why the computer is never, or not for a long time, going to displace man as the integrator. The total variables that we deal with integratively all deal with a series of original questions which we have asked ourselves. Furthermore, those original questions and their discovered answers are relayed from generation to generation by chromosomic instructions which implement our appropriate, survival-accomplishing, subconscious reflexing to myriad variations of environment stimuli. We have at least two million years and possibly vast aeons more of cumulative instructions for relaying our various question-askings and constant answer-relationships. Philosophers used to say that the computers would not be able to ask an original question. But it is now some time since a computer first asked an original question when it hadn't been told to ask an original question."

"All of a sudden as a consequence of variables in the environment and in the machine itself which had not been anticipated by the machine's designers and operators it went ahead and asked an original question. That occurrence requires explanation. Computers can play games, and the same computer can play two games. The same computer can play chess, backgammon, and checkers. Now I am going to have a computer playing backgammon and checkers at the same time. The things you have to do in order to be able to make a move in backgammon are much more complex than the things you have to do in order to make a move in checkers. Therefore, the checker moves get played a little more rapidly than do the backgammon moves. So the checker moves are are going like this (taps table rapidly) and the backgammon moves (taps more slowly) more slowly. The fast moves are not whole-number multiples of the time lapses of the slower (bigger) moves. Every once in a while these movement rates get to the point where one is catching up to the other and suddenly the two come momentarily together in seeming synchronization. You get this synchronization hum in variable-speed motors such as the twin motors of an airplane or a boat. When the computer's two game moves get into the synchronization phase"

"and the time span for solution action by the computer is too short for the computer's solution of both (approximately simultaneously) there develops a momentary blockage interference, whereat the computer must decide to which of the two games it accord right-of-way priority. To answer-- its own originally conceived question-- the computer asks itself which, by the computer's stored information, of the two games, backgammon or checkers, is the most important to man's psychological equanimity maintenance. And the answer comes back 'backgammon,' because, though not as yet as popular as checkers, backgammon is the rich man's game and people are swiftly trending toward comprehensive opulence, ergo will need universal backgammon capability and will drop plebian checkers. Here then is an original question: born through occurrence of unexpected interference in experimental interpatternings. Original questions of computers or humans probably are, always, products of unexpected interferences. Once asked, the therefore original question becomes an additional brain-inventory item to be passed on to the next generation in the chromosomic inventory.

"While the computer will not replace man as an integrator in the foreseeable future, it will undoubtedly replace man as a differentiator. There is good historical precedence for this prognostication. It is to be found in natural history.

There are now in the world several thousand powerful high-capacity, information-storage, electronic computers. The number of them approximately doubles yearly. That means a quarter-million of them by 1970, 250 million by 1980, and m 8 billion by 1985-- more than two computers per world human.
The computers, both large and small, are machines for mathematical pattern cognition and recognition storage, retrieval, and coordination; the human brain is the prototype. As with the human brain, all pattern processing consists of two main classes: differentiation and integration; i.e., specialization and generalization. Differentiation identifies, evaluates, selects, and separates the uniquely developing patterns. Integration ratiocinates comprehensively the coordination rates and magnitudes of complex interactions, developments, or transformations.
To appreciate our state-of-computer affairs, we must first be aware that throughout the last 15 years many philosophers have been disturbed by the claims of some cyberneticists that computers are soon to displace the human intellect.

"of the human brain in respect to the computer, some of their claims might in time prove valid. For a long time philosophers assumed that the computer could not ask original questions. They said that the computer could only re-ask a question man has taught it to ask.
"Despite the philosophers' wishful predictions, the computer has now demonstrated its ability to ask an original question--and it did so without being instructed. Otherwise the question could not be assessed as 'original.' The surprise demonstration came about approximately as follows: You can teach a computer to play games, for instance to play checkers. You can also teach a computer to play backgammon. You also can build a computer with enough parts to permit it to play both backgammon and checkers at the same time.
"Now, both backgammon and checkers are played at different rates. Furthermore, the checker moves are simple and direct. Backgammon is complex. Therefore the same computer, playing both games concurrently, completes the checker moves far more rapidly than the backgammon moves. The backgammon rate is not an even wavelength multiple of the checker rate."

"Therefore, as with disynchronous, high-frequency twin motors, there develops a secondary low-frequency, intermittent recurrence of coincident cycles, or interferences. Suddenly the machine has to make both the checkers and the backgammon moves at the same time. Because the computer has a given wavelength interval within which to make moves, and because the latter is too short to accommodate both moves, the machine has to decide which it will play first. It has to ask itself and then decide, 'Which is more important, checkers or backgammon?' If the machine has stored enough information on variable factors, including previous decisions, it may soliloquize: 'Poor people play checkers and rich people play backgammon. I'd better cast my vote for the priority of backgammon because my memory storage also tells me that all the poor people are becoming rich and will emulate their conditioned-reflex image of being rich.' From this moment, rightly or wrongly, the machine's storage contains this prospero-proletarian predilection.
"'Which is more important, checkers or backgammon?' is an original question that had never been asked by man of himself or of the machine. We find that the asking of original questions is a consequence of interferences, whether in the computer or the human brain."

The computer can stay up all night, night after night, selecting the greens from the blues under humanly intolerable conditions of heat, cold, smells, etc., yet never tire. That the machine is to replace man as a specialist, either in craft, muscle, or brain work, is an epochal event. The computer as superspecialist produces, multiplies, and administers 'automation.' Because the is superior to man as specialist, comprehensive world automation has always been developing inexorably and is now inexorably imminent.
"The scientist-philosophers of computer integration say that because the asking of original questions is a consequence of interferences, and because interferences are products of time sequences, it follows that original questions are both functions and products of time. There must be a great number of moves and a vast number of computer components before enough time can elapse to develop new types of secondary or tertiary inter-

Computer Asks an Original Question:
"ferences that in turn may from time to time provoke original questions. The human brain as a computer mechanism consists of approximately a quadrillion times a quadrillion atoms in coordinate interpatterning. It will be a very long time before man will be able to develop an extracorporeal computer with that many transistors, storage cells, and other components. The experts also point out that, dealing in integrative complexity as a function of time, the human brain has always been dealing in complexity and has also been integrating comprehensive, historical continuity of human-experience-reflexed, design evolution relayed by human genes. Therefore, the experts say, we would have to have man-made computers running for 1 million years or so in order for them tom develop an equivalently integrated complexity. The experts do not see any immediate, or even far distant, competition by the machine computer with the human brain in the functions of complex integration."

"The domain limits of the hierarchy of concentric, symmetrical geometries also suggests the synergetic surprise of two balls having only one interrelationship; while three balls have three-- easily predictable-- relationships; whereas the simplest, ergo prime, structural system of Universe defined exclusively by four balls has an unpredictable (based on previous experience) sixness of fundamental interrelationships represented by the six edge vectors of the tetrahedron."

"Whereas/the layer-around-layer, symmetrical, closest packing of unit radius spheres around a nuclear sphere of the same radius, the number of spheres in each layer will always be 10 times the second power of the frequency of comprehensively concentric layer enclosings, plus the number two; i.e., 10 F^2 + 2; by which we discover that, in the case of the first layer, i.e., frequency = 1, we have 1^2 = 1, and 10 * 1 = 10, which, plus two = 12; and we find experimentally that 12 unit radius spheres comprehensively omni-inter-close-pack around the single nuclear sphere. Where frequency is two in the case of the second layer, we have 2^2 = 4, 4 * 10 = 40, 40 +2 = 42 spheres which circle empirically; thus the number of unit radius spheres in the third layer is 92, and so forth."

"Physics of 1974 identifies: ½ quantum = ½ spin; and 1 quantum = 2 (spin/2). Conception-birth comes with the realization that the seemingly separate aspects of the externally viewed, plus-curvature convexity from that of the internally viewed, minus-curvature concavity have no interveningly differentiating, zero-curvature sheath structurally differentiating the only timelessly (or generalized) conceptual coincidence of both the plus and minus curvature. In the alternatively plus-or-minus pulsativeness frequencies of special case time, the multiplicative twoness 'conception' releases or gives birth to new coexistent additive twonesses as independently axially spinnable: special case spin twoness inherently coupled with the duality twoness, producing the individual unity fourness with its primitive sixfoldedness of integral system interrelatedness and its eightfolded integral Universe environment."

Conceptuality Independent of Size & Time:
"Synergetics identifies topology with conceptuality. You have prime conceptuality independent of size when you deal with a tetrahedron with its edge not subdivided. Not until the edge is subdivided, not until it becomes frequency, does it become time or size. In other words, we have complete topological conceptuality independent of size. This is an utter abstraction.
"This is the abstraction of mathematics which the mathematician felt was there, but he did not like to identify it with experience because he thought experience was going to be what he called imaginary. We've gotten clear of that now by the absolute isolating of conceptuality.
"Conceptuality is always pretime or prefrequency. The minute frequency come in, or time comes in, it is special case. This is what mathematics intuitively tried to adhere to, but they've gotten into a trap, like the axioms."

Conceptual Models:
"The real break between science and the public occurred when science found that invisible behaviors of nature could be ferreted out by instruments and computationally mastered without recourse to conceptual models, which had become seemingly invalid due to the inability to model fourth dimensionality with XYZ 90-degree coordination, which, however, could be readily computed mathematically. With the wholesale migration of science into the world of invisibility without any conceptual models of reference, the literary man who depended upon conceptual models or analogies for his verbal pattern relaying was automatically excluded from either ringside participation or backrow glimpsing of the significant affairs of science.
"The natural four axis, 60-degree, tetrahedronal coordinate system... returns 'conceptuality' of dynamic structural principles to scientific validity."

Index Entry
Because synergetics is conceptual, it will make it possible for people to teach themselves in a very Montessori-like way. The present mathematics of science has to be taught because it is so incredibly complex and utterly devoid of conceptuality. It is just formulas, formulas, formulas, consisting of symbols utterly unfamiliar to any of the public in any language. It consists then of invisible games played with unfamiliar objects which can only be taught by others: nothing is self-evident.
Inasasmuch as I am challenging the whole of academic science, acceptance is not going to come from them.... It is only going to come from a young world who find that synergetics opens the whole of physics to their own observational discovery.
It is interesting to me that there was... a professor of engineering at one of New York's large universities... who said that he had found my energetic geometry... the key to swift conceptual-by-self discovery for his students.... In the 1950s when I was teaching at MIT there was only one department that saw the immediate application and significance

of energetic geometry.... The one department that understood me spontaneously and saw the immediate application was the Department of Electrical Engineering. The physicists were so used to operating in a nonconceptual, purely abstract mathematics method that they had no faith in their own conceptuality and tended to be afraid of their being intrigued by synergetics. Electrical engineers deal with the realities of physics and have to understand what it is doing.... The electrical engineers clearly encouraged me to hope that the practical public acceptance will come within the critical period necessary for humanity to veer away from its course to self-extinction.
'When Max Planck discovered his famous constant for the conversion of the awkward XYZ-axis mathematics to provide agreement with the energy increments as physically discovered, he said, 'The opposition never yields, they just die off.' I am not worried about the opposition; I am only concerned about the 40 percent of humanity who need to be able to teach themselves, as you and I both taught ourselves to ride a bike and earlier taught ourselves to stand.'

RBF:"The word 'solid' is not scientific. When they say 'homogenous matter,' what they mean is the isotropic vector matrix. To say that any chemical properties vary with direction of the 'solid' is inherently wrong, Matter consists only of atoms whose nuclei are vastly denser and differently-behaved from the internuclear voids."

"The homogeneity is the gravity. What is the reason for the homogeneity-- nobody knows! Newton did not know. The gravity is the a priori mystery, but the behavior of the atoms is conceptual."

Congruence of Vectors
← Congruence with the Points (2) | Congruence of Vectors →
Index Entry
The phenomenon congruence of vectors occurs many times in nature's coordinate structuring, destructuring, and other intertransformings, doubling again with four vectors congruent, and even doubling the latter once again to produce eight congruent vectors in limit transformation cases as when all eight tetrahedra of the vector equilibrium become congruent with one another. This phenomenon often misleads the uninformed observer.
Congruence of Vectors
← Congruence of Vectors | Congruence of Vectors →
Index Entry
Congruence of Vectors:
"Sum totally the four hexagons of the vector equilibrium have 24 radial disintegrative vectors and 24 chordally integrative vectors. The unique planes of any two hexagons of the set of four interact with one another in such a manner that the line of interaction (intersection) of the planes is congruent with the radially defined diameters of the two hexagons. This paired congruency of the 24 radial disintegrative vectors of the four hexagons reduces their visible number to 12. While the 24 chordal integrative vectors remain non-congruent and appear as 24. The congruence of vectors occurs many times in nature's coordinate structring and destructuring and often misleads the uniformed observer."

Connections and Relatedness:
"The spheric experience is a high-frequency omnidirectional complex of events and their relatedness. Since it is concerned with the most economical relatedness we can also speak of it as a geodesic spherical experience. This is where the importance of chords comes in. A chord is abstract, yet tensive. A chord has pull: we would probably not think about the connections unless there was some pull between them. The function of the chords is to relate. The event is the vertex. The reaction is the chord, the pulling away. And the resultant is the inadvertent definition of the nothingness of the areal and volumetric spaces. The sequence is: Events; Chords; No-events. No-events = Novents. Areas do not create themselves. They are incidental to the lines between the events. The faces are the bounding of nothingness. Areas and volumes are incidental resultants to finding the connections between the events of experience."

Science states that the entire physical Universe is energy. E = Mc². Some of the energy is operative in associative patterns-- as matter. The associative energy-as-matter is organized in leverage systems to do work. The disassociative energy patterns-- as radiation-- are transformed into free energy to be directed to impinge on the levers.

"Synergetic accounting advantage is extended by our law of non-simultaneous finite Universe pattern conservation to embrace definitive consideration of any and all experiences, physical or metaphysical. The latter strategically equatable accounting advantage derives from a corollary of synergy which shows that systematic accounting of the behavior of whole aggregates may disclose discretely predictable angle and frequency magnitudes required of some unknown components in respect to certain known component behaviors of the total and known synergetic aggregate. Therefore the definitive identification permitted by the law of finite Universe conservation may implement conscious synergetic definition strategies with incisive prediction effectiveness, possibly of epoch-initiating magnitude."

Classical scientists assumed that their second law of thermodynamics, called entropy, which shows that every system is continually losing energy, means that the universe as a unitary system is continually losing energy and must dissipate eventually to self-extinction. Because of this twentieth the classical scholarly world at the turn of the/century assumed that the running down, of course, included our economic wealth. Therefore, wealth must be inexorably and continually depleting.

Consideration:
"When we have found all the relationships between the number of items of our consideration we have what we speak of as 'understanding.'. The word 'consider' derives from the Latin words for 'together' and 'stars.' When we understand, we have all the fundamental connections between the star events of our consideration."

The word con-sider-ation comes from 'sidus,' the Latin for star, the focal point of an as yet nondifferentiated concentration of events-- ergo, con-sider-able, or con-stellar patterning, means an exploratory grouping of 'stars' or complex idea entities that seem to man's limited tuneability to stand out together.

In a consideration four is the minimum number of stars having an inherent arrangement of withinness and withoutness. . . . The minimum . . . set, affording macro-micro separation of Universe, is a set of four local event foci. These four stars have an inherent sixness of relationships. This four-foci six-relationship set is definable as the tetrahedron. This minimum fourness . . . of stars coincides with quantum mathematics requirement of four unique quanta numbers per each uniquely considerable 'particle.'

Part (1) is the untuned macrocosmic long wave length, low frequency, high energy set; Part (2) is the untuned microcosmic short wave, high frequency, low energy set; and Parts (3) and (4) are the tuned, plus-minus, interface sets." - Cite NASA Speech, p.p. 40,41, Jun '66

The rhombic dodecahedron six is entirely outside, but twelve-foldedly tangential to, the initial sphere. The cube, part inside part outside the sphere, is three. The octahedron, mostly outside but partly inside the nuclear sphere, is four. Vector equilibrium is 2.5, and is entirely inside the sphere with its 12 external vertexes congruent with the surface of the nuclear sphere at the same 12 points of tangency inside the sphere as the 12 points of the same initial sphere at which the rhombic dodecahedron is externally tangential; and the initial vector equilibrium's central vertexes are congruent with the volumetric center of the initial, i.e., nuclear sphere.
"It was our synergetics' discovery and strategy of taking the two poles out of Euler's formula which permits disclosure of the omnirational constant relative abundance of V's, F's, and E's, and the disclosure of the initial additive twoness and multiplicative twoness whereby the unique prime number relationships of the prime hierarchy of omnisymmetric polyhedra occurred, showing tetra = 1; octa = 2; cube = 3; VE + Icosa = 5."

something like the continuous Scenario Universe. Man would
then have an enormous information resource which would

"I have given the name 'continuous man' to the slowly accumulating total world experience and total literate knowledge regarding all the discovered physical resources and generalized patterning principles-- in contradistinction to the illiterate, discontinuous man, local in time and geography, whose nonrelayed, experience-won knowledge limited his tool capabilities to devices which any one individual might invent entirely on his own initiative, starting nakedly in the wilderness. My definition of industry is a tool-regenerating complex in which none of the tools could be produced, operated, or used by one man-- for example, the Queen Mary, Grand Coulee dam, the Pennsylvania Turnpike, etc.
"All around the world are found unbelievably large heaps of artifacts of discontinuous man, each, in effect, starting all over again learning a little, incorporating the little in hand-crafted tools, dying without comprehension of aught but the local limitations and inadequacies of his infinitely surrounded and apparently exclusive local reality."

My continuous man represents a world-around interlinked and continuously intercommunicating continuity of consciousness, which with the spoken word and the invention of mathematics and discovery of generalized principles operative in Universe and the discovery of the total resources of Earth and the character of the total resources of Universe, constitute a continuous extracorporeal memory and a continuously enlightening experience, continuously translated into continuously improving extracorporeal rearrangements of the total resource of unique pattern behaviors of physical Universe within which only individual man is engulfed in an inherent island of physical discontinuity.

The latter having so far failed to disclose any integral memory capable of inhibiting new pattern-conceiving potentials; therefore industrialization may well be the second derivative, synergetic-surprise capability to remember and teleologically realize evolutionary pattern controlling.
"Continuous man's intellectual capability multiplies geometrically as his experiences accumulate and their observed data are recorded and converted to the extracorporeal chromosomic function of anticipatory patterning. Industrialization, or our continuous man, knows no national or political favorites. Continuous man's laws are of the Universe and are only realizable through its comprehensively integratable and multipliable world and Universe resources. The intellectual integrity of the industrial equation utterly reverses the history of inherent inadequacies of local agricultural and craftable resources.

"As a result, the enormous energy-relaying patterns of Universe are continuously shunted by consciously continuous man in greater magnitude into the man-world patterning and applied to the ends of increasing numbers and lengths of levers. This tooling is in itself regenerative as man stands apart from and surveys and critically appraises and improves its working. There tooling rearranges universal energy flow patternings from which physical man can detach himself and enjoy new degrees of a priori energy environmental patterns control. In satisfaction of man's consciously apprehended needs and desires, his time is freed by the tooling to be invested in more perspective for realization of more tool invention. Tool capability becomes reinvested in improved tool birth and mass tool reproducibility.
"So enormous is the energy wealth of Universe and so great is the memory and intellectual wisdom of continuous man: in respect to his previous experiences, and so fundamentally has he inter- tooled his advantages, that it is completely clear that all men may now be successful in living in a progressively satisfactory enjoyment of total earth.

Convergence
Index Entry
Convergence:
"In the topology of synergetics powering is identifiable only with the uni-angular vectorial convergences. The number of superficial radiantly regenerated vertex convergences of the system are identified with second powering, and not with anything we call "areas," that is, not with surfaces nor with any experimentally demonstrable continuums."

"... The coordinate system employed by nature uses 60 degrees instead of 90 degrees and also the lines don't go through a point. But they are 60-degree convergences, even though the lines don't ever get together. They get into critical proximities and there are domains of the convergences... even though they are open as you get to the non-closed convergences."

"...You all went to school being taught the XYZ coordinates of parallels and perpendiculars.... But Universe is not operating that way. Universe is operating in radiational-divergence and gravitational-convergence. Divergent and convergent: that's the way Universe operates. This is nothing like the XYZ coordinates and all that-- they have nothing to do with the way Universe works. Things in parallel never get resolved. Convergent things get beautifully resolved, they get exactly... they get nature into a corner.... That's why you couldn't have a nucleus in a perpendicular or or a parallel system. You can only have nuclei when you have convergence. And that's why I say how far out our schooling really is."

Convergence & Divergence:
"We do not arrive at dimensionality by virtue of perpendicular or parallel assembly. Dimensionality in synergetics provides for assembly only by convergence and divergence. This accounts for the spontaneous and continued frustration of conventional mathematical accounting when confronted with the problem of assembling a nonpolarized omnisymmetrical object by joining two identical halves of the multifrequenced, closest-sphere-packed tetrahedra, each of which has five similar facets; two of which are equiangled triangles; two of which are trapezois; and the fifth being a non-equi-edged parallelogram. Matching any of these faces produces asymmetrical polarized objects. One of the non-equi-edged parallelograms must be precessionally rotated to cross the other at 90 degrees when it will be seen that the converging-diverging patterns of the two halves are symmetrically realized."

Convergent vs. Parallel Perception:
"All exclusively three-dimensional matrixes, consisting only of parallel lines and perpendicular rectilinear interactions--like parallel railroad tracks--inherently fail to accommodate any terminal convergence. Such matrixes fail to accommodate the inherent strategy of range-finding: the fact that the linear-distance relationship between our two human eyes--and also those of other optically equipped creatures--was designed to provide the base line of a triangle whose opposite apex occurs at the position of a sighted object. The convergent apex angle of the object provides the human brain's computer circuitry with a limited, distance-to-object-magnitude appraising, or range-finding perceptivity, whose maximum terrestrial range is the horizon. Beyond the horizon the distances apart of remote objects are reduced to optically nontunable angle-size-or-frequency discernability. Ergo, at the maximum tunability of differential-wavelength-perceptivity our range-finding optical system produces a false image of a seemingly convergent pair of parallel railroad tracks. It is not that the tracks or the ties are coming together but that the distance between them is subtunable."

The allspace-filling functions of the (+) or (-) AAB three-module Mite combines can operate either positively or negatively. We can take a collection of the positives or a collection of the negatives. If there were only positive outside-out Universe, it would require only one of the three alternate six-module, allspace-filling tetrahedra (see Sec. \hrefhttps://www.buckyverse.org/en/synergetics/content/chapters/900-modelability#section-953.40953.40) combined of two A (+), two A (-), one B (+), and one B (-) to fill allspace symmetrically and complementarily. But with both inside-out and outside-out worlds, we can fill all the outside-out world's space positively and all the inside-out world's space negatively, accommodating the inherent complementarity symmetry requirements of the macro-micro cosmic law of convex world and concave world, while remembering all the time that among all polyhedra only the tetrahedron can turn itself inside out.

Co-orbiting of Earth & Moon around Sun:
"Critical proximity would be, for instance, the relative interpositioning of the distances of the Moon-Earth team's Sun co-orbiting wherein there is a complex mass-attraction hookup. When at critical proximity the 180-degree mass attraction takes over and one starts falling into the other--with the attraction fourfolded every time the distance between them is halved--they establish a mass-attraction, relative-proximity 'contact' bond and interoperate thereafter as a 'universal joint'--or a locally autonomous motion freedoms' joint. Either body is free to carry on individual, local, angular-relationship-changing motions and transformations by itself, such as revolving and precessing. But without additional energy from elsewhere being applied to their interrelationship, they cannot escape their critical proximity to one another as they co-orbit together around the Sun--with which they are in common critical proximity."

"Now I was assistant to the director of research for Phelps-Dodge and it was just at the time of World War I that flotation came in and the electrolytic refining of the copper. This so speeded up and reduced the cost of production of the copper that they found that the gold and silver occurring with the copper paid for the complete cost of mining and refining and bringing to market. Therefore the copper itself cost you nothing. You would only take it out of the ground when you could get the highest price; so it was a war price.
"Now, World War I then-- we'd just gotten electromagnetics, enough to really amount to something. In the one year, 1917, man refined and put on the market in one year more copper than he had mined and refined sumtotally in all the years before. And for years after that we stayed at this new magnitude. Copper was the handmaiden of energy, both in generation and delivery. Showing then what an energy war it was, was this extraordinary jump. And when the war was over-- all the wars up till this time had been agricultural in the agricultural accounting system of nature-- and when the war was over you had taken all the farm boys, and used up all of the farm products, and you trampled all the farms down, and bore it, and everybody."

lost. In World War I a great many people said it really must have been very immoral because there were a lot of fortunes made here. What happened was-- all over-- that the copper had not rotted, and it didn't go back in the mines: it stayed right where it was generating power and conducting power from Niagara Falls, from here to there. And so suddenly it was the first war where we came out wealthier than when we went in. The wealth was in the production capability. But this was not put on the books this way at all. There was not a great accounting change at this time. And the land was still it. The physical assets and not the know-how. This power thing was all know-how....
"Now this is what we really mean by the words 'know-how.' And we went through this copper business. The first telephone: one wire, one message was all we could get over one cross section; that's all we knew about it. It came as a tremendous surprise when-- about 15 years later-- you could get two messages over the same cross section. And then suddenly we found you could get 10 or 12 (I've forgotten which it was); and then it went up to 28 with the same cross section. 230:-- same cross section. 2000:-- same cross section... the frequency modulation over that wire. In 1930 the chief engineer of the Bell System said"

"we'd be able to go from 10 percent of humanity having the telephone to 100 percent-- without the telephone company mining or buying another pound of copper. They'd be sellers, all the way. And they have been. Now just think with this more-with-lessing what we're saying. You're doing your accounting on the basis of the physical. You're missing something. This is what we really mean by my way of thinking about wealth. Wealth is not being properly accounted.
"And now, next thing: Now we're at the point where one communications satellite weighing a quarter of a ton outperforming 175,000 tons of copper cable. Transoceanic communications--much higher-- and we get a much higher step-up of what we're really in-- and I don't find any of this on the books at all...."
"While I was in Phelps-Dodge I made a fantastic discovery. I was assistant to the director of research, and Louis Cates (?) who was the president of Phelps-Dodge at the time had been at M.I.T., and he was a mining man and mining men were running things. I came to Phelps-Dodge in '36, which was a very interesting time. Wewere then just seven years out of the Great Crash. And Phelps-"

"Dodge, like many of the great corporations, were just absolutely dominated by J.P. Morgan. What the S.E.C. did, with the beginning of the New Deal coming in, was to break up the depositing and investing, and the gambling of common stocks, whatever it might be. At any rate, J.P. Morgan really got severed from corporations. All the great corporations-- their board and their management had represented very much a banker's control of the situation. And that banker's control broke down. And Phelps-Dodge was a very interesting one to be in, because they had dominated up to that time and they were no longer dominating. In order for the copper companies to be able to exploit World War I, they had to really produce copper-- and not just take it out of the mines. They found their customers were too small and small-headed. So the great copper companies bought all these small fabricators, their customer's businesses, armature, wire, whatever it might be, and then they operated the whole show and made the end product for the government.
"In order to make a quick amalgamation like that, they promised the president of Habirshaw a very big job. That was called Phelps-Dodge Copper Products had the management of the fabricators in opposition to the mining men and mining engineers."

"And we had a man named Brown who was pressing very hard in selling the stuff. With management out of the way, because there was no longer a banker running it, then there was nobody to put management in or out and if the made a profit then their stock-holders would reelect them. What we call finance capitalism into managerial capitalism. Thi is really a very severe jump.
"But what was bothering the old management-- which was still the mining world, they had really the great monopoly-- was that scrap was beginning to be sold and that bothered them very much. They produced the same copper. And banks had great byndles of copper, and they had yards, gurading as copper scrap. Trying to keep it out of the way. Louis Cates brought me in, through Bill Osborne, to make a study of world industrialization-- way, way ahead-- to see what the function of copper would be as the various stages would unfold. In doing that I became really a deep student of copper and other metals that they were interested in, the tins, and the history of those. And in doing the history, I would always go tb the very earliest known history. I never started at 1900, or anything like that; I wanted to look at the total big picture. And I saw how copper had actually been used and I saw that there was a copper-- a bronze age."

"And we got into weapons and pins and fastenings of ships; and later on they found that wrought iron would do it, so they took copper out of that. It opened up one industry after another. At first, railroading-- you couldn't have any rusting-- therefore an enormous amount of brass and bronze. And just as fast as you could find some other way of doing that, cheaper metal-- any of the irons did that. So copper dropped out there. The cost of-- great utilities... In automobiles they kept down copper because it cost so much-- about 30 pounds in an automobile. But you did have to have it in the sparking equipment and in the engine, and so forth.
"But I followed my copper very closely. And in the building industry there were great copper roofs and an enormous amount of plumbing, and so forth. And I got into something else which was very fascinating: nature's gestation rates in various arts. In electronics there is only two years between invention and use, because it is actually entirely mathematically evidenced whether it's better or not. It didn't matter whether you liked the looks of it-- you were working in an invisible world. So it gets in fast. Aeronautics: in aeronautical production it is

five years between invention and actual use because you had to be careful about those lives. There is a 10-year lag in the automobile improvement; and there is a 15-year lag between the invention in the railroading art; 25 years in big buildings; and 50 years in small houses.
So then I too kthe inventory of the metals, of copper in each of these categories. The building industry, and so forth. This whole thing averaged at every 22 years-- every 22\frac12 years-- the total metals really came out of the last generation of design and went into the new design.
In the electronic world you are dealing with invisible reality. That's why we have electronics. So at any rate there were those different categories. I find nobody realizes the gestation rates of that kind of art. Taking the inventory of the coppers I found that 22\frac12 years would be when it would come out. And I say the whole copper industry was completely bewildered by the scrappers showing up. So here in 1917 we got this fantastic new production. I went back to 1917 because in 1936 that was 19 years back. I Took my 22\frac12 years and found, sure enough, the

"the scrap was coming in. The scrap of each year was really equalling the new production of 22½ years earlier. So I said I think that is really working here. That being so, I told Phelps-Dodge-- 22½ plus 1917-- that mid-July of 1939 you're going to be overwhelmed with scrap. And I told them that in 1936. In 1938 I left and went over to Fortune magazine where I was science and technology editor for the next two years. In July of 1939, Bill Osborne called me, he was director of research at Phelps-Dodge and he said 'Bucky, this happened.'
"And this really made some impression in that industry because I really had foretold that. In mid-1939 we went down to the New York docks in lower Manhattan-- and the lighters were every- where, just high with metal. Because whatever copper did, iron followed it; but copper is a sensitive lead. The mine group, realizing they were overwhelmed with this scrap-- and World War II was looming-- they literally sold it all to Germany and Japan to fire back at us, which wasn't a very moral thing to do, but that's exactly what taught Japan how to get along without mines. Their whole industry has been built on this ever since.... Every time we run the same metals around, we load more perfomance on it, and that's whatwe mean by wealth-- the ability to take care of more lives."

"Copper is so relatively abundant that it can be functionally used and its functions are very important. Next to gold it is the highest conductor. Its reflectivity is next to gold. It has great workability; it doesn't harden the way steels do. Its nonrustability lets you put it into alloys and make forgings that are very strong. All these things mean that it has a great many functional uses. And it has a nonsparking quality; you get the sparks with the steels and the ferrous. All the ferrous have sparks and the nonferrous don't spark.
"There are so many functional uses of copper and it's relatively abundant. So while its functionally used, it is scarce enough that its cautiously used, because it costs so much more than the ferrous. It is the most sensitive indicator I can find of all the metals. Iron is so much cheaper that it gets carelessly used many times where the copper doesn't. Iron will follow whatever copper does. Copper, then, is my lead metal to tell me things."

"The beginning is really World War I-- the first big industrial war using big industrial tools. Here man shunted energy into the ends of levers in an enormous way. The way you get the most energy from one place to another in the greatest amount and in the greatest hurry is by wire, which is much faster than by pipeline or tanker. In World War I copper was used because it was the most plentiful of the metals and was a good conductor. In just one year, 1917, man mined and put to work more copper than he had in the whole of man's history before-- an idea of the magnitude of the energy undertakings in World War I. He had two new technical capabilities, flotation and electrolytics, refinements that made it possible to get that copper to work very much faster. Since that time, man has been using copper in new magnitudes. But when the war was over and that wire was mounted on those poles it kept right on conducting electricity. What we have done was to rearrange the environment. We had taken the copper out of the Earth and we put it to use where we wanted.
"Because we had developed a production capability by landing energies on the ends of those levers, we were generating great"

wealth-- and we kept right on doing so when the war was over. America and the rest of the world didn't quite understand all that wealth. Many said that there must be a lot of corruption in America because here the war was over and suddenly there were a lot of millionaires. During World War II, too, America was lend-leasing, etc., using and giving away all manner of things, but still we came out of the war vastly richer than we had been, despite all the things we had done, all the ships sunk and the rest. But even from those sunken ships we have been recovering the metals used to make them. This is an entirely new aspect to our world: that all metals that get mined, even if they are used to make something that becomes obsolete, are scrapped and then put right back into circulation. Of all the copper mined in the history of man, in fact, only about 14 percent has gone out of circulation. The rest gets melted up and used over and over again. And every time we use it, the wire carries more messages-per-cross-section than it did before. We continually up the performance per pound as we reuse those metals."

I am quite confident that the coral animal is unaware of its participation in the building of a vast coral animal apartment house, the coral frond, or the result of its subconsciously coordinate building of a coral reef, or of the effect of the coral reef in changing the ocean's warm currents and the ecological effects of this wobbling of the great hot water heating system of life in the biosphere and thereby in turn on the pattern of great continental masses.

"Euler found that when we put a hole through a system and core it as in a doughnut, the number of the vertexes plus the number of the areas always equal the number of the lines. The number two dropped out. Coring dropped out the balancing integer two from the right hand side of the equation. I, therefore, said to myself that the integer two, which was dropped out from the right hand side of the equation was thought of by Euler and the topologists who followed him as being an empty integer necessary for balancing the equation, did in fact represent another conceptual or distinguishable pattern consideration, which was the twoness representing the poles of the core which had been removed."

Coring:
"If the pattern has a hole through it like a doughnut then we don't have plus anything. We leave out the two from the solid. When we leave out the two from the solid & it is really a doughnut and we are cutting out the axis which is to say that the axis is two. . . The plus two which Euler found has to be added to vertexes plus faces equals edges plus two, when it is a structure in the round; but when we put a hole through it, we find we drop off the two and then it is vertexes plus faces equals edges. The plus two comes from coring, like coring an apple, which is to take out the axis. My identification of plus twoness is verified as it has been shown up as the number of balls in any layer. In the round affair the two related to the axis of spin is inherent for any system, so we now allow the energy to account for the spinning."

The outward forces of all the compressions are more than offset by the finitely closed omni-intertriangulated great circle tensions, each of whose interstitial lines, being part of a triangle-- or minimum structure-- are inherently nonredundant. The tightening of any one line tightens all. The breaking of any one line is safely anticipated by a tension diamond springingly interconnecting the system."

Due to the corrupting power of gold and silver monies a few centuries ago, successful capitalist-speculators were able to achieve important irreversible advantage for themselves. Through the military leaders whose weaponing they weaponing they financed and the latter's legal law-makers, law-yers, and law-administering judges, they established a social acceptance of a nonexistent imagination-accommodating entity of everyday life. This nonexistent entity which was mentally swallowed by the public greatly reduced their personal gambling risks. It was the invention of the corporation. The limited liability corporation is legally identified as Ltd., in England; as Inc., in the U.S.A.; as G.m.b.H., in Germany; as Societe Anonyme, in France, etc. The very words 'limited liability corporation'-- a fiscal formality-- were utterly incomprehensible to 99.4 percent of the contemporary almost omni-illiterate population.
The limited liability corporation was a 'legally' recognized, but otherwise entirely imaginary man whose enterprising foresight and courage the riskers were 'backing'-- as they 'backed' or 'mounted' a race horse. If the imaginary man

This became an irreversible risk: everything to win and nothing to lose but the net bet.

The words 'discontinuous compression' and 'continuous tension' than ought to be reminiscent of the problem which the young man brought down to me about the two concepts of the phenomenon of light or radiation in general, or the corpuscular and the wave, one being continuous and the other discontinuous.
We find the corpuscular a discontinuous accounting and the wave a continuous. I found the continuous in universe to be tensional and the discontinuous to be the compressional of the energy, or the corpuscular. . . . I would say probably that the behaviors of the light phenomena may "be properly explained in terms of the corpuscular theory and so forth. . . then we will be able in the light to have synchronization of the corpuscles as not touching one another and yet have two beams going what had seemed continuous away but really tensionally and therefore not really have any problem of anterference. . . .

Cosmic Accounting:
"The time-energy cosmic accounting and maximum-efficiency alternative technologies, as exclusively employed by Scenario Universe--and spoken of by us as 'nature'--will be instituted in all human affairs and will be integratively operated by the world-around, satellite-interlinked computers.
"With the computers's integrative examination of the physical and metaphysical resources available to human beings it will be discovered that we are incredibly wealthy. Wealth, as stated before, being predicated on the degree of organized competence to nurture, protect, and accommodate today's and tomorrow's human lives. It will be clearly manifest that we have aboard Spaceship Earth four billion billionaires--heirs-apparent who have never been notified of their magnificent inheritance, which has been over-long hidden within the world's probate courts of obsolete laws, customs, and fee-hungry fiduciary administrators, whose ignorant divorcement of money from wealth has altogether hidden from the fiduciary administrators themselves as well as the rest of the world, the late-20th-century-realized existence of omni-humanity-sustaining, inexhaustible wealth."

Nature is going from the physical to the metaphysical. The physical, being a closed system, suddenly starts to all go into one pocket in Arabia. They are sitting on top of all the physical energy and so all the gold got to them. They had the ability to buy everything. But the way the game is played through gold nobody has the ability to but what they have. They were suddenly stymied; really in checkmate.
"This is when the Arabs suddenly said: We see there's a game here and so they asked David Rockefeller to come in to Arabia with the Chase Bank and show them how to run their bank for them. And I said: What are you selling here?
"All the Arabs have is the physical. (This is what I said to David Rockefeller's accountants.) You don't have any metaphysical in the books. And you're over here selling 'know-how.' That's purely metaphysical. And the students asked David Rockefeller: What is the function of having a bank in China? Why do they want you there?"

"The tetrahedra and octahedra complement one another as
space fillers. This is not very satisfactory if you are
looking for a monological explanation: the 'building block'
of the Universe, the 'key,' the ego's wished-for monopolizer.
But if you are willing to go along with the physicists,
recognizing complementarity, then you will see that tetrahedra
plus octahedra-- and their common constituents, the unit-volume,
A and B Quanta Modules-- provide a satisfactory way for both
physical and metaphysical, generalized cosmic accounting of
all human experience. Everything comes out rationally."

"And I've really been working on what I'm going to talk about for almost a half-century-- 47 years now. And I've been really quite confident that humanity would gradually get around to what I call cosmic costing-- getting real on to the energy balances of Universe. If you get into, in a very big way, how you really handle your energies from here to there: Have you ever really studied the engineer's way of designing refineries? How much energy they keep investing in this column, and so forth, and the energy recoveries? Really very fascinating.
"Now what I'd really like to talk about here is what I call metabolic accounting. In other words, Universe really working in energy-- and how much she has invested. She's associating and disassociating. And as far as physics can find out, we are dealing in a Universe that is eternally regenerative. That is, there is no evidence of energy either being created or being lost. And an eternally regenerative system is quite a system."

"Now vegetation is designed on the land and the plankton and the algae in the sea, to impound the Sun radiation and then by photosynthesis to convert it in beautiful orderly molecular structures: the hydrocarbons. We have then-- this is what I call instead of entropy; I call it syntropy-- and this is where the energies are being impounded and sorted and collected in the most orderly ways. All the biological organisms making these beautiful hydrocarbons. And one each to the other, and so the little insect gets big, and the trees get bigger, as the hydrocarbons are continually being impounded, and getting buried more deeply and deeply. And so what we've been dealing in-- actually, oil-wise, and fossil fuels, and so forth-- is really exhausting some of the enormous savings account....
"One of my very great geologist friends, who is particularly an oil geologist of the highest order: and treating energy the way we do treat energy: work, lifting human weight against gravity a given height in a given amount of time-- which you can convert into kilowatt hours, or whatever it may be. I asked him to figure what it costs nature to make a gallon of petroleum. First, its impoundment, and then the shaking of the leaves off, and then broken into dust and what it takes in the way of time"

But I said then that when you give up the idea that you've got to earn a living-- and so we spend three million dollars a day to get 50 dollars-- it doesn't make much sense. And that's the kind of nonsense I began to run into when I got into this cosmic costing. Now I see then that the Universe is really trying to build up a savings account here. And we are operating at very low efficiency. If we really were doing well with that energy, we might just justify it for the moment on the basis that it could do better. Society is obviously... and human beings are invented the way they are and they have to find their way and they have to learn by trial and error and they have to make a lot of mistakes. We have a very big cushion-- by trial and error-- to do things."

At any rate, the way we are using our energies then is very significant. And the reciprocating engine is inherently only 15 percent efficient. That's all the work we're getting out of it-- for really very obvious, simple reasons: The push on top of the piston sends it one way and the crankshaft contradicts it and sends it the other way-- so you've lost your direction altogether; there was a little momentum of the crankshaft having a little rotary-- it's called a 180-degree restraint. But we have a little explosion on the side here and the connecting rod-- or call it a turbine-- 90-degree restraint, and it goes from 15 to 30 percent efficiency... fundamentally. Then you get into no restraint at all in a jet engine and you get up to 60 percent. And with the new fuel cells of the space program we get up to 85 percent. (The equipment is expensive, but it's a fantastically efficient operation.
Now I found that the way we are using our energies-- we've known about the gas turbine for a long time; and the automobile companies and many of the trucks are operated on them, but the tooling costs-- the automobile companies say: society, the hell with it! Though we've had it available, we've not done anything about it. This is fairly typical of why-- I can understand all

So 95 out of 100 barrels goes down the flush. This is all really nonsense. So I really began to get very interested in how we could get humanity to see the nonsense.

The name, COSMIC FISHING, which Ed Applewhite uses in his book came about in the following way. Very frequently as I was working on the manuscript some special turn of thought brought me in full view of a magnificent new awareness. I would stop my work and call to Ed typing at a table behind me and say, 'Ed you are very good at writing things down quickly, please make a record of this,' and I would then describe the new vista of physics or mathematical relationship which to the best of my knowledge had heretofore never been discovered by humans within our known history. I described to Ed the fisherman fishing over the side of a boat with his bait, sinker, hook and line suspended motionlessly deep in the water when suddenly there comes a nibble. The competent fisherman learns to jerk the line quickly enough to catch the fish's mouth, otherwise fish are very expert in nibbling away the bait from the hook without getting caught. Then the fisherman, if he can hook the fish, reels it in and some fish battle very powerfully.
I pointed out to Ed that the intuitions of humanity are the fishing equipment--that many,many people get the bright idea or nibble but then become interested in some other matter,

"turn away to light a cigarette, go for lunch, forget to write it down and it is gone and that fish never comes back.
"In a survey of the diaries, letters, and scientific notebooks of six historically celebrated great scientists' contributions to humanity (where the notes, letters, and diaries, were inspected only for a short period before the scientist made his great discovery as well as at the time he made the discovery and for a short period thereafter); it is common to all those scientists' great discoveries that all of them make it clear that the number one factor leading to their successful discovery was the intuition of the scientist--something that made them turn suddenly in the right direction from another preoccupation. Then they also make clear the second most important factor was the second intuition which came seconds later about what they ought to do about the mind-discovered phenomena in order to bring its significance to bear on human knowledge and to probably thereby enhance the survival advantage of humanity.

"As the roster of known members of the family of m cosmic laws is expanded, the progressively greater whole produces inherently synergetic surprise and requires new cosmological comprehensions of the overall intersignificances of the expanded awareness."

The sphere contains the most volume with the least surface enclosure of any geometrical form. This is a cosmic limit at maximum.
In the four great-circle planes we witness the same surface area as that of the sphere, but containing no volume at all. This too, is cosmic limit at zero minimumness.

Index Entry
Cosmic Limit Point:
"Let us consider a tetrahedron, which also always has an externality and an internality. At its internal center is its terminal turn-around-and-come-outward-again condition. This is exactly why in physics there is a cosmic limit point at which systems turn themselves inside out. They get to the outside and they turn themselves inside out and come the other way. This is why radiation does not go off into a higher velocity. Radiation gets to a maximum velocity unrestrained in vacuo and then turns itself inward again-- it becomes gravity. Then gravity comes to a maximum concentration and turns itself around and goes outward-- becomes radiation again."

"Thank you for your lovely letter. I congratulate you and thank you for your identification of the Bible's 'firmament' with my use of the concept cosmic structuring. When my math book, SYNERGETICS, comes out next October, you will find it elucidating what appears to be fundamentals of cosmic structuring.
"Because sound has speed, we do not see the jet plane in the sky in the direction in which we hear it. The speed of sound is approximately 700 m.p.h., while the speed of light is 700 million m.p.h. The further things are away from us, the further they will be from where the sound or light was transmitted at the time we receive that light or sound event.
"One of two adjacent stars in the Big Dipper's handle is 200 light years away from us and the other one is 100 light years away. A light year is six trillion miles. Therefore, the nearest one is 600 trillion miles away and the other one is one quadrillion two hundred trillion miles distant. Both are moving through the firmament in opposite directions at speeds greater than 100 thousand m.p.h. Yet they seem to us not to be changing their relative interpositioning."

Where any stars of the heavens may be in respect to any of the others at any given moment is as yet uncalculated by astronomers. If we could have an instant or simultaneous location of all the visible stars, we might witness a very regular celestial geometry. Who knows? To appreciate how difficult such a calculation would be, we must appreciate that with our naked eyes we are able to see the nebula in the constellation Andromeda, which is a live show just reaching us which was taking place two million years ago, and that was twelve quintillion miles away from us at that time. Where that nebula may be today in relation to all the other stars and nebula would take extraordinarily complex calculating. There are a billion galaxies of one hundred billion stars each in our thus far telescopically observed Universe, many of whose 'live shows' reaching us tonight took place eleven billion years ago.
"Galaxies revolve at peripheral speeds of a million miles an hour and stars within galaxies travel locally at lesser speeds of hundreds of thousands of miles an hour.

Cosmic accounting contradicts humanly-invented terrestrial accounting.... Terrestrial accounting is founded entirely on physical property wealth whose deeds of 'ownership' derive exclusively from undisputed coups of might. Overlordship of lands were proclaimed by invincibly armed men, often accompanied by priests who solemnly affirmed the warriors' claims as being blessed by God's pleasure that the proclaimed sovereignties be so established. Cosmic accounting is exclusively metaphysical.
None of the economic accounting books list metaphysical assets. Metaphysics are held to be unsubstantial, meaning in Latin, 'nothing on which to stand'.
Patents can only be granted for special cases, i.e., limited, physical practice applications of abstract generalized principles, which principles alone are inherently metaphysical and unpatentable-- being only discovered and not invented. Physical patents are capital.
Energy in either of its states-- associative as matter or disassociative as radiation-- being physical, can be entered into the capital account ledgers.

(a) The quantity of energy involved in the photosynthetic conversion of Sun radiation into hydrocarbon molecules and their subsequent vast multiplication incident to the building, operation, and regeneration of all the organic bodies of all the other bio-species of the intricate intercomplexities of the ecological complex of our planet;
(b) The vast amount of Sun energy impounded by the biosphere's one billion cubic miles of Earth's atmosphere always exposed to the Sun whose energies are articulated in work as the critical terrestrial temperature control of its biospheric ecology and as winds and storms and atomization of the waters

That pattern is now spreading to embrace the whole planet's life-support operation. Possession of the land is no longer synonymous with economic success nor with general life support of humanity.... All large industry is trending to provide rentable services instead of trying to sell technological products. Services are primarily metaphysical know-how systems.

Cosmic Vacuum Cleaner:
A comet is a celestial itinerant, a cosmic skyways vacuum cleaner trying to accommodate an aggregation of stardust as it travels successively through the orbital neighborhoods of planets, stars, and other comets. The radiation pressures from the nearest stars, however, tend to blow the vacuum cleaner's stardust gleanings out into a 'dustbag,' causing what we erroneously speak of as the comet's tail. These 'tail' displays should be spoken of as Sun-radiation blowoff trajectories. As the comet comes into critical proximity of syntropically importing planets, the stardust aggregates of their inverted 'tails' are gravitationally depleted by the planets they pass as much of that stardust falls into the planets or moons to become part of those import centers' syntropic build-up in a multibillions-of-years syntropic preparation of their stored energy aggregates to be converted into the state of an entropically exporting star.

The Coupler has one of the most profound integral functionings in metaphysical Universe, and probably so in physical Universe, because its integral complexities consist entirely of integral rearrangeability within the same space of the same plus and/or minus lites. We will now inspect the characteristics and properties of those lites as they function in the Coupler.

"The basic complementarity of our octahedron and tetrahedron, which always share the disparate numbers 1 and 4 in our topological analysis (despite its being double or 4 in relation to tetra = 1), is explained by the uniquely asymmetrical octahedron which is always constituted by the many different admixtures of AAB Quanta Modules, the Mites, which asymmetric octahedra are like the 4A's-2B's, the SYtes, also allspace fillers, as are the cube (72 AB's), the rhombic dodecahedron (144 AB's) (spherics).
"There are always 24 A's or B's in our uniquely asymmetrical octahedron (same as 1 tetra) which we will tentatively name the coupler because it occurs between the adjacently matching diamond faces of all the symmetrical allspace-filling rhombic dodecahedra (of 144 A's and B's). The rhombic dodecahedron is the most faceted, identical faceted (diamond) polyhedra and accounts, congruently and symmetrically, for all the isotropic-vector-matrix vertexes in closest-packed spheres and their 'tween' spaces. Each rhombic dodecahedron's diamond face is at the long-axis center of each coupler (Vol. = 1) asymmetrical octahedron, with each of the rhombic"

We see that the following variety of energy effects the variety of A and B Quanta Module associabilities are contained uniquely and are properties of the couplers, one of whose unique characteristics is that its volume is the exact prime number one of our tetrahedron (24 A's) accounting system. It is the asymmetry of the B's (of identical volume to the A's) which provides the variety of other than plus-and-minusness of the all A-constellated tetrahedra. Now we see the octahedra which are allspace-filling and of the same volume as the A's in complementation. We see proton and neutron complementation and non-mirror-imaging interchangeability and intertransformability with 24 sub-particle differentiabilities and 2, 3, 4, 6, combinations: enough to account for all the isotopal variations and all the nuclear substructurings in omnirational quantation."

"This work is dedicated to
H.S.M. Coxeter
To me no experience in childhood so reinforced self-confidence in one's own exploratory faculties as did geometry. Its inspiring effectiveness in winnowing out and evaluating a plurality of previously unknowns from a few given knowns, and its elegance of proof lead to the further discovery and comprehension of a grand strategy for all problem solving.
By virtue of his extraordinary life's work in mathematics, Dr. Coxeter is the geometer of our bestirring twentieth century. The spontaneously acclaimed terrestrial curator of the historical inventory of the science of pattern analysis.
I dedicate this work in particular gratitude to him and in thanks to all the geometers of all time whose importance to humanity he epitomizes."

Creation:
"No I don't like to use the word 'creativity,' and I don't even like the word 'creation.' The mind is properly concerned with generalized principles and to qualify as generalized principles they must be devoid of exceptions--i.e., eternal.
"Man does not create, he only discovers and employs. He did not create the lever, nor did he invent the lever.... he can invent new uses for the lever but not its principle.
"What humans refer to as creation involves a beginning and an end. Human beings deal only with apprehending special case, inherently terminable, phenomena. Only brains ask for beginnings and endings. Human mind discovers the eternal interrelationships existing between special case phenomena that are not predicted... and characteristics of system's parts when each is considered only separately. Since human mind deals with the eternal, original 'creation' is an untenable concept. What people mean by creative is special case inventive use of eternal principles."

The Universe is endowed with extraordinary generalized principles. The principles are progressively discoverable only by man's faculties. Man may interrelate them to produce unique results. The individual at times fulfills high potentials with which he is endowed. When he does he seems to be creative. However, the men who are spoken of as creative always refer to what they have done as discovery. They do not claim creativity. Through exploration and experiment they acquire sublime conviction of the a priori eternality of the verities. I can't accredit 'disciplined creativity.'"

"Now there is, in the Universe, a vast order. It never lets you down. I throw a coin into the air and it returns and hits the floor every time. Nature is never at a loss what to do when she takes over after you and I sign off. Nature never vacillates in her decisions. The rolling oceans cover three-fourths of the Earth. Along the beaches, the surf is continually pounding on the shore. No two successive local surf-poundings have ever been the same, nor will they ever be the same. They typify the infinitude of individualism of every special-case event in the Universe. While there is great music in the pounding of the surf, as the infinite creative integrity of the Universe is manifest, I cannot identify man, who hears this music, as the creator. I therefore do not use the word creativity in man's employment of a priori infinite variety.

"When you talk about 'creative' men you are really talking about men who know and understand something of the Universe, and who, regardless of public acceptance or rejection, know.
"I certainly worry about the teaching of creativity that so many talk about today. In science and technology, teaching creativity is, in reality, teaching about the Universe. If you understand the laws that govern its working, you, ipso facto, must be creative, for you cannot help but apply those laws in a new way-- in your language, a 'creative' way, in my language, an 'extraordinary' way."

Creativity of Children:
"I think that every one of us has had the experience of hearing a little child suddenly, saying, or asking a question, or making a statement that is so lucid that we are astonished. There have been hundreds of millions of little children-- one after another saying these extraordinarily beautiful things. Emerson spoke of poetry as saying the most important things in the simplest way and children are continually saying these important things in simple ways. I think that is what society in general talks about as creative, as if you were just being a little child and retaining that quality when you are older, when you have had more experience and can still ------------- see clearly and lucidly and say things economically. That is what man has been calling creativity. About creativity as a word, I would not myself feel that men aspire to add to the Universe, but they discover the great extraordinary principles within it and can employ them from time to time in very novel ways quite clearly moving forward to greater understanding."

Critical proximity is inherent to all intertransformability and interaccounting of eternally regenerative Universe, as for instance in the myriad varieties of frequencies from aeons to split seconds. When the Earth's orbit passes through a comet's stardust plume we witness some of the comet's stardust falling in to Earth captivity, some of it igniting as it enters the atmospheric gases, some falling into Earth, and some with such acceleration as to pass only through the atmosphere leaving meager entropic dust to fall to Earth."

It follows that no event vectors of Universe ever pass through any of the same points at the same time. Wherefore it is also operationally evidenced that the conceptual system geometries of omnitopology are defined only by the system withiness and withoutness differentiating a plurality of loci occurring approximately midway between the most intimate proximity moments of the respectively convergent-divergent wavilinear vectors, orbits, and spin equators of the system."

RBF Definitions
"Chagrin and mortification caused by their progressively self-discovered quadrillions of errors would have given humanity such an inferiority complex that it would have become too discouraged to continue with the life experience. To offset this, humans were designedly given a pride and vanity which can--and usually does--tend to self-deception. Witnessing the mistakes of others, the preconditioned crowd-reflexing says, 'Why did that individual make such a stupid mistake?... We knew the answer all the time.'... So effective has been the nonthinking, group self-deceit of humanity that it now says, 'Nobody should make mistakes,' and punishes people for making mistakes. In love-bred fear for their children's future life in the days to come beyond that of their own survival, parents train their children to avoid making mistakes lest they be put to social disadvantage."

Crystalline or triple-bonded structuring does not distribute loads as do gases and liquids. Nature designed the triple bonding to produce the high cohesiveness in tension of crystalline structures. Due to its triple bonding the most difficult structure to pull apart is the crystalline."

"The first photographs through a field emission microscope actually show the discrete atoms themselves. The point of a tungsten needle shows a standing of oranges or whole cannon balls, laying bare layers of whole balls and they are graduated... You'd have to pile them approximately a mile high to come out as the beautiful surface you see on a needle. The atoms are never fractionated; they always come out whole atoms, whole protons and neutrons. Photographs made of the nuclei of whole atoms always come out in that beautiful vector equilibrium pattern."

Cube:
"If the cube is an entity it has 18 structural lines. If a dodecahedron is an entity, it has 32 vertexes, 60 faces, and 90 structural lines. (The primes 5 and 3 show up here to produce our icosahedral friend 15.)
"Whenever we refer to an entity it has to be structurally valid and therefore it has to be triangulated. This does not throw topology out.
"A nonstructurally-triangulated cube exists only by self-deceptive topological accounting: someone shows you a paper or sheet-metal cube and says, 'Here is a structurally stable cube without any face diagonalling.' And you say what do you call that sheet-metal or paper which is occupying the square faces without which the cube would not exist. The sheet-metal or paper does diagonal the square but overdoes it redundantly.

Cube:
"Because the cube is the basic three, if we assess space in the terms of the cube as volumetric unity, we will take three times as much space as would be occupied by the tetrahedron as volumetric unity. The arithmetical-geometrical coordination in terms of cubes is threefold inefficient for we are always dealing with physical experience and the structural systems whose edges consist of events whose actions, reactions and resultants consist of one basic energy vectors; therefore the cube requires threefold the energy to structure it as compared with the tetrahedron. We thus understand why nature uses the tetrahedron as the unit of energy, as its energy quantum, because it is three times as efficient. All the physicists' experiments show that nature always employs the most energy-economical tactics."

Cube:
". . . We have trouble with the vectorially fashioned cube; it collapses, it doesn't hold its shape. Cubes and squares will not hold their shapes. They lack structural integrity. To hold its shape a square must be divided into two triangles. But because two vectors cannot go through the same point at the same time the two diagonals of the (quasi) square are tangent and thus form a flattish tetrahedron. To hold its shape a cube has to have a tetrahedron in it. There are eight small or two large tetrahedra in every cube. Either one of the big tetra or four of the little tetra will maintain the cube's shape."

"Experiment shows that cubes are invalid as structural devices, although the building industry and society in general commonly think of buildings in terms of cubes or quadrangular coordination. If you make a little cube of twelve toothpicks, and join their ends with soft rubber balls you will find that the cube wobbles and collapses whereas a tetrahedron made in the same way, with six toothpicks and soft rubber ball vertexial jointing is utterly stable. The cube becomes rhombic. Each little square will flatten down very readily. The tetrahedron is made up entirely of triangles which are the only inherently stable polygons."

control line of nature is the diagonal of the cube's face and
not its edge; that this diagonal connects two spheres of the
isotropic-vector-matrix field; and that those spherical centers
are congruent with the two only-diagonally-interconnected
corners of the cube. Recognizing that these cube-diagonal-conne-
cted spheres are members of the closest packed, allspace-
coordinating, unit radius spheres field, whose radii = 1
(unity), we see that the isotropic vector matrix's field-occurr-
ring-cube's diagonal edge has the value of 2, being the line
interconnecting the centers of the two spheres, with each half
of the line being the radius of one sphere, and each of the whole
radii perpendicular to the same points of intersphere tangency."

"We find the associated behaviors of various atoms complementing each other so that we are not just talking about one thing and another one thing, but we are beginning to get something like the interplay of the two three-vector events, i.e., the six-vectored tetrahedral structure. If I bring two tetrahedra symmetrically together, they have a common center of gravity and make a cube.
"Each tetrahedron has four vertexial 'star points.' Instead of having two sets of four separate stars, I now have eight stars symmetrically equidistant from the same center and from each other. All the stars are nearer to each other in their separate four-star aggregations as tetrahedra, where the distances between the star vertexes were the uniformly-sized six edges of the tetrahedra. In their cubical integration the next three nearest stars to each star are only the distance of their right-angled legs of the cube's 12 edges apart from one another, while the tetrahedra's edges are the diagonals, or hypotenuses, of the cubes' six square faces. Each star has three nearer stars as well as three more remote stars, already transfixing, ergo, step-up of, its coherences, which is 1.41 x 250,000 = 352,500 psi."

There is a lag in it . . . exactly like our dropping the stone into the water and getting a planar pattern for a wave but in this one we get an omnidirectional wave. We can see the electromagnetic wave pattern as clearly demonstrated by one energy action in the system. This is the first time I think a man has been able to have a conceptual picture of a local disturbance. We must remember that in the local water where we drop the stone the molecules run inwardly and outwardly towards the center of the earth gravitationally; the water does not move. It accommodates a wave moving through it. We see that a wave is a pure principle accommodated locally to be broadcast.

When looking at pyramids, if you were starting with a cube as unity, then the volume of the tetrahedron would be some odd number. If you were using the edge of the cube for your control, and using the same edge for the tetrahedron, you would find thatthe volume of the tetrahedron is a very odd number and comes out 1.7826 or something like that. The volume of the octahedron would seem to be some other strange number. They would be uncomfortable numbers in respect to you cube as unity. But you wouldn't be suspicious between the tetrahedron and the octahedron where the edge lengths are the same: the volume is exactly four in the octahedron and the tetrahedron is volume one.

The accomplishment of experienceable, structurally stabilized cubes with a minimum of nonredundant structural components will always and only consist of one equiangled and equiledged 'regular' tetrahedron on each of whose four faces are congruently superimposed asymmetrical tetrahedra, one of whose four faces is equiangled and therefore congruently superimposable on each of the four faces of the regular tetrahedron; while the four asymmetrical tetrahedra's other three triangular--and outwardly exposed--faces are all similar isosceles triangles, each with two 45-degree-angle corners and one corner of 90 degrees. Wherefore around each of the outermost exposed corners of the asymmetrical tetrahedra, we also find three 90-degree angles which account for four of the cube's eight corners; while the other four 90-degree surrounded corners of the cube consist of pairs of 45-degree corners of the four asymmetric tetrahedra that were superimposed upon the central regular tetrahedron to form the stabilized cube. More complex cubes that will stand structurally may be compounded by redundant strutting or tensioning triangles, but redundancies introduce micro-invisible, high- and low-frequency, self-disintegrative accelerations, which will always affect structural enterprises that overlook or disregard these principles.

Both the cube and the vector equilibrium's flexible, necklace-like, six-square-face instabilities can be nonredundantly stabilized as structural integrity systems only by one or the other of two possible diagonals of each of their six square faces, which diagonals are not the same length as the unit vector length. The alternate diagonaling brings about positive or negative symmetry of structure. Thus we have two alternate cubes or icosahedra, using either the red diagonal or the blue diagonal. These alternate structural symmetries constitute typical positive or negative, non-mirror-imaged intercomplementation and their systematic, alternating proclivity, which inherently propagate the gamut of frequencies uniquely characterizing the radiated entropy of all the self-regenerative chemical elements of Universe, including their inside-out, invisibly negative, Universe provocably, split-second-observable imports of transuranium, non-self-regenerative chemical elements.

A non-nucleus-embracing 3-volume cube may be produced by applying four of the Eighth-Octahedra to the four equiangled triangular facets of the tetrahedron. (This is illustrated at Sec. \hrefhttps://www.buckyverse.org/en/synergetics/content/chapters/900-modelability#section-950.30950.30.) Thus we find the tetrahedral evolvement of the prime number three as identified with the cube. Ergo all the prime numbers-- 1, 2, 3, 5, 7-- of the octave wave enumeration system, with its zero-nineness, are now clearly demonstrated as evolutionarily consequent upon tetrahedral intertransformabilities.

"...Others have been preaching that nothing is
alien to social history whether it be a chair,
a costume, a meal... what counts in human society
is economic organization and political action."
RBF: "Beautiful culture is just hobbling to a beautiful
mind. It is all exactly the reverse from the way Plumb has
it! 'Political action' simply means 'Who is going to survive
in a world of scarcity?'

Culture:
"I use 'culture' in a biological sense. There are certain growths, intercomplementations of culture in human affairs, cumulations of poetry, painting, art, knowledge, and inventories of our understandings. But much of culture is highly conditioned reflexes, often very impeding reflexes. Our educational system is the essence of it. I question whether the word 'culture' is useful; it does not necessarily represent a net gain all the time.
"At its most ambiguous it represents a closed system of two kinds of people: the cultivated and the uncultivated.
"There is, of course, a synergetic interaction of all of humanity and the 100,000 nuances of definitions of all our experiences in the dictionary are a great memorial to humanity. (It's different in the orient due to the holdover of ideographs which represent a different way of generalizing.)"

Curvature: Simple:
"We can demonstrate the great structural gain inherent in the principle of simple curvature over rectilinear structures when we take a limp sheet of paper and curve it into a tube. Previously an amorphous diagram of little structural advantage, it afford dramatic structural ability in the form of a tube. When the paper is curved, the concave side forms an arch of infinitely minute parallel compression staves, fulcrums of pinched rows of atoms. The convex surface of the curved paper is stretched around the compression arch of parallel fulcrum lines-- tensed atoms.
"The paper may be reversed so that what has been the inside of the cylinder's surface becomes the outside surface. Thus it is seen that the simple curvature structure is a principle and not a unique characteristic of the atoms constituting one surface or the other. The stability of simple curvature is enhanced by the length of the parallel lines. As the lines shorten to approach 'points,' the compression of the arch approaches the ball point which then tends to curve in any direction. The curved compression in the barrel or cylinder was confined to"

"Articulate its tendency to curvature within one plane by the compression (strutted) positioning of every point of the line of curvature afforded by the parallelism of the staves and their inertia.
"In a simple curvature tube of paper all the circles of tension, including all the circles of compression, are parallel to one another and give one another no help. Therefore a cylinder may be flattened-- in which case each circle becomes a double line. In order to do this, we see that the tension circles exert all their pull in levering the many compression points within to compress exquisitely the two opposite, or polar, compression point. This is then, the genesis of the ultimate, two-way focussing compression tension line resulting from stressing simple curvature."

A sphere is unit, but a line is not because the terminals of a line must represent arbitrary cut-offs. All lines, except when abstractly considered as 'direction,' are somewhat curved, and all curved lines must eventually intersect-- no matter how remotely. Not even a graphed spiral is forever possible because the errors in a graphed line constantly dislocate the line and insist upon an ultimate intersecting contact. This, quite simply, is the essential concept in Einstein's 'curved space.' The only possible symbol of unity in plane geometry is the circle.

Scientists, beginning with Lavoisier and Priestley, have found out about thermodynamics and its second law of entropy bringing about increasing disorder.

"Tennyson saw that a custom once appropriate to a given time,
adapted by virtue of 'being realistic' might survive too long.
He thought the bad customs would take care of themselves.
But--since change is inexorable--it's the good customs that
may hold up change and bring great delays and lurches in the

'The old order changeth, yielding place to the new As God Fulfills himself in many ways...'
And then he says something that is unfamiliar to most people:
'Lest one good custom should corrupt the world.'
"He realized that a habit that was once completely satisfactory to man may be maintained after its time. As entropy is always operative and the Universe is altering, change is inexorable. Therefore, holding on to a good custom is equivalent to damming up the Universe and so the flood will only be worse when the dam does break.

Cybernetics:
"Cybernetics, the Greek name for the steering of a boat was first employed by Norbert Wiener to identify the human process of gaining and employing information. When the rudder of a ship is angled to one side or the other of the ship's keel line, the ship's hull begins to rotate around its pivot or deepest keel point. Since ships have great weight--usually in ton magnitudes--frequently in thousands of ton magnitudes-- the momentum of that tonnage's pivoting tends to keep rotating the ship beyond the helmsman's intention. He therefore has to 'meet' that ship's altering of its course which he does by putting the rudder over into the opposite angular direction, which always produces a momentum contradiction and a resultant course alteration to the opposite side of the desired ship's course. It is impossible to altogether eliminate the ship's course re-alterations. It is possible only to reduce the degree of angular errors by ever more sensitive, frequent, and gentle corrections.
"Through successively sensed visual information, the ship's helmsman discovers that he has oversteered first on one side and then on the other side of the compass course he is desirous of maintaining in order to reach his unseeable, faraway destination.

"720° is the angular description of two cycles of unity, unity being the 360° of total angularity around a point and as such the unit cycle of all time wherefore 720° is exactly two cycles, wherefore the tetrahedron as the minimum system, with total angularity of 360° or 720°, bears out our long-held hypothesis that 'unity is plural and ad minimum is two.'"
