Looks like someone in meditation, third eye open... :yes:

[Kain]

Now that is very interesting...thanks for that MythMath. I am enjoying this stream of images very much, coming out these past few days...

[Anibis]

WOW!... sounds like you are BLOOMING... that's fantastic. Thanks!

[MythMath]

Yeah, this stuff seems to have
a real significant feel to it...

[Naomi]

Yeah definately some awesome symbols....I've been looking here more than talking MythMath...mostly because I only have perverted jokes to say.

I saw post #3 really vividly recently in my visionwork.

You're pretty much Sonic the Hedgehog in my book...

NC, those dozen dots sure do hum... :yes:

I have a unusually strong feeling about these images,
so I figured they would inspire a bit more conversation...

Maybe it's the goofy thread title... :rolleyes:

Kain, I know that you've been examining the whole
binary/ternary enchilada, what are your impressions
of what's revealed in the sequence of graphics...?


Anibis, the POD & HOST image also certainly reminds
me of the lemniscating Juggler with his 3-ball cascade...

The image even suggests to me the little
cluster of my 3 multi-colored juggling balls...

Anibis, the POD & HOST image also certainly reminds

N. E. Body...?

Well, I will be N. E. Body until the experts arrive lol

Yes the Pod and host definitely conjure up images of the juggler and TC working.

I was more attracted to the primary colours as a way of recognizing that the Abrahadabra is the beginning and basis of all things.

Well all of my internal dialogue is x-rated, but knew you were kinda wondering why the party in here wasn't rocking with these awesome images. heh...I'M HAVING TROUBLE EXPRESSING MYSELF.

Oh it did make me see the Ningishzidda serpent in third eye earlier, if that helps....

Mmm, binary ternary enchiladas.

[Kain]

Kain, I know that you've been examining the whole
binary/ternary enchilada, what are your impressions
of what's revealed in the sequence of graphics...?Well MythMath, the relationship of the TwinStar with the Seed of Life was quite amazing as we've previously discussed...this 15-point triangle is no different. It can also account for a Tetractys of sorts if we take the smaller ascending triangles composing it as the Tetractys 'points', thus giving us a similar (yet more static or presentational, due to this triangular formation's less inherent mobility compared to, say, the TwinStar but it's Yang-ness none the less) effect . 6 descending triangles...accounting for 16 triangles total...quite interesting.

The dozen they combinationally bring about is also quite auspicious, providing a well-balanced 'Completion' potential both in their number but also in it's placement. Point Symmetry in glyphs usually hints a self-sufficiency similar to that of the ideal Self, but also of Form. So it can be said to hint at the attainment of the Completed yet stationary/not-moving/unchanging "Form"...not much different from what the Body of Light itself can be said to imply as a term.

Line symmetry hints at movement, a specified direction, and also *origination*. It tells a story through time, while Point symmetry can be said to describe that which in the end transcends both time and direction (or keeps it and encapsulates it in it's "belly"), depending on our glyph in question. This is also related with a factoid regarding genderization during birth, where the male is produced by the female prototype through a specific chromosome "losing a limb", becoming 3-limbed rather than 4. Genders can go both ways though occult-wise...for instance, 3 is the number of Yang and 2 of Yin in Taoism, yet, for instance, we see different gender attributions in Samkhya and Tantric cosmology, the manifest world being triple, active and female while the transcendant consciousness being ever-unchanging and male. The point is, the construction you have here is based on Point symmetry in a large extent, depicting immovable completion and even-number symmetry, yet also holds an interesting triplicity (odd-number symmetry, line symmetry etc) neatly in it's center or "womb".

N. E. Ricci,

You can't go a day nowadays without
running into at least one Juggler... ;)

Interesting about the primary tones...

I guess I instinctively went that way in contrast
to the immediately preceding project (see below)...

Kain (etal.),

My original dream of the Spinning Machine still 'feels' right, in that
the motion implied within both the binary and ternary glyphs
is the thing that stands out, even if not as a literal 'machine'...

Moreover, these images seem to me to be ready to 'put to work'...

But what tasks will these tools best serve...?

[MythMath]

Based on the sequence of images at the beginning of this thread,
I decided to do a similar series for the Tai Chi glyph, as well...

I've changed the title of this thread since I'm going
to consolidate the 2 series together here, but the
origin of these yin/yang variations started in a
thread called Spinning I Ching Machine found here:

Never waivering from my steadfast commitment to socially inappropriate bluntness I will tell you straight up that I am distrustful of anything that seeks to usurp the Tetractys as a mathematical root dynamic...I have seen this pattern before...be careful that it does not lead you dashing headlong into a wall...

Now...having said that: What are we really looking at in the 5-tiered magickal triangle? We are looking at the Key of Jupiter as well as all 16-based systems, of which there are many powerful and important keys, including the Court Cards of Tarot, the 16 Geomantic Characters, The Binary Tetragrammaton and others...

So I would definitely follow the trail as you are doing quite nicely... At the very least you will wind up with good ammunition for future projections...

Excellent "energized enthusiasm" MM...as always...:cool:

[MythMath]

...I am distrustful of anything that seeks to usurp the
Tetractys as a mathematical root dynamic...

That's a good one, m1thr0s... :laugh:

Seriously, why do you think the Tetractyl approach may be 'off' in this case...?

And conversely, how do you know when it's 'on target'...?

I have seen this pattern before...

be careful that it does not lead you dashing headlong into a wall...

Could you be more specific...?

I like to be efficient and I don't want to waste
my timenergy barking up the wrong ToL... :p

[m1thr0s]

I'm not so sure that it is "off" MM...and I am also not looking to criticize here...

It's just a gut reaction based on having been down many strange and ponderous detour roads myself, only to wind up with my thumb up my asparagus in the end...

But you know what? That's what pioneering is all about so don't take it for any more than it's really worth...just a caution sign on a winding mountain road and nothing more...watch out for crossing bears sort of deal...

I think it's great...the images are very good...let's just see where it goes...

[fr.novumorganum]

i can only say i continue to be amazed.

image 21 seems very powerful to me.

certainly one of our most psychedelic threads (and from me that's a compliment)

[MythMath]

Thanks, Fr. No...

#21 really works for me too...and its close cousin #19...

I'm working on a related design that will transform
recycled CDs into Spinning Machines (tops)...

First, one of the images is printed onto
a CD label and applied to the old CD...

Then a large marble is glued securely
into the center hole from above...

The marble protrudes through the hole to
provide the 'point' on which the top spins...

The marble is also used to grasp & spin the top...

These babies spin silently a fraction of an inch off the table,
and because of their mass, they spin for an unusually long time...

Very Saturnesque... ;)
