form molecules by little tetrahedral arrangements: tetrahedra
point-to-point (univalent), tetrahedra edge-to-edge (bivalent),
tetrahedra face-to-face ((trivalent), or congruent tetrahedra
(quadrivalent). These are the primary bondings.

(1852-1911)
"van't Hoff said he though this oneness, twoness, threeness
and fourness has something to do with tetrahedra.
He went to work very hard and he lived to make optical
proof with the microscope of the tetrahedronal configuration
of carbon. He was the first man ever to receive the Nobel
Prize. Une reason the chemists hadn't accredited him was
that most chemists were metallurgists. Organic chemistry
was a very new phase of chemistry and they hadn't found
any bonding in the metallurgy, so the chemists were simply
bored with this phase of chemistry and when this man comes
along with some kind of crystallographic configuration of
conceptuality it annoyed them very much. They had been
getting along very nicely with just numbers. They had the
kind of relationships where they did not have to have the
tetrahedron shape. Then there is a great hiatus after van't
Hoff and it goes up to 1932, and that is a half-century

Theory Of:
"In the general theory of variables, it has been recognized
that the set of all the variables may be divided into two
classes: (1) the class of all the inclusive variables within
a given system, the interior relevants, and (2) the class of
all those operative exclusive of the system, the exterior
relevants. It has been further recognized that the variables
outside the system may affect the system from outside. In
varying degrees, specific levels of subclasses of these
'background' or outside variables are identified as parameters.
But the background' concept is fallaciously inadequate;
dealing with insideness and outsideness for 'background' is
limited to the two-dimensional or flat projection concept,
which inherently lacks insideness--ergo, cannot also have
outsideness, which always and only coexists with insideness.
Ergo, all two-dimensional copings with systems are inherently

moving at some angle in relation to that axis of yours.

RBF DEFINITIONS
Vectorial Model of Interference:
"When there is an interference of two energy events of similar
magnitude, there is a coequal pattern of intereference
resultants, as when two knitting needles slide tangentially
by one another. But when one converging body of an interfer-
ing pair is much larger than the other, the little one 'seems'
to do all the resultant moving as viewed by an observer small
enough to see the small converger's motion--as, for instance,
human beings see a tennis ball hit the big ball Earth and see
only the tennis ball bounce away, the Earth ball being too
big to be seen as a ball by the viewer and the relative
bounce-off deflection of Earth's orbit from the tennis ball
point of impact being too small for detection. As the
magnitudes of energy vectors are products of the mass multi-
plied by the velocity, the velocity may be high and the mass
small, or vice versa, and the vectors remain the same length
or magnitude. A little body moving at sufficient velocity
could have the same effect upon another body with which it
interferes as could a big body moving at a slower rate.
With
these vectorial variables in mind, we see that there are three
fundamental preconditions of the interference vectors: where
one is larger than the other; one is the same; or one is
smaller in energy magnitude than the other."

Vector: Threeness of the Vector:
"There is a constant relative abundance for every vertex
in the Universe. There will always be two faces and there
will always be three edges. Which is to say then, that for
every event in the Universe the number of lines (which are
the vectors, the energy actions) will always be three-- or
multiples of three.
• .
(1)
"Now this is consistent with what we used to have in
engineering where we learned that 'every action has a reaction.'
But since the discovery of the speed of light . we realize
that every action has a reaction and a resultant. The
resultant and the reaction are not the same. This, then, gives
you something very interesting. Every energy action, every
energy event is three-part: action and reaction and resultant.
They are the vectors. Now we find that the reaction and the
resultant are never a 180° continuance of the vectors. There
is always something that transpires that makes it precess.
So an energy action is some kind of a Z-- an open 'Z' if
you think of a 'Z' as three connecting lines. Now the ends
of the same three could come around and make it look like a
triangle. So it might be a 'Z' or a triangle. There are
always three parts, but never at 180° so it's not a straight line

"The vector equilibrium is of the greatest importance to all of
us because all the nuclear tendencies to implosion and explosion
are reversible and always in exact balance. But the important
thing is that the radials which, if they are outwardly
pushing, would tend to explode, are always frustrated by the
tensile finiteness of the circumferential vectors which close
together in an orderly manner to cohere the disorderly
sundering.
"When the radial vector are tensilely contractive and separately
implosive, they are always prevented from doing so by the
finitely closing pushers or compressors of the circumferential
set of vectors. The integrity of Universe is implicit in the
external finiteness of the circumferential set which always
encloses the otherwise divisive internal radial set of

vector equilibrium is cut into two halves, by any one of
its four great-circle planes. Because they are radii of

surprising because we find that the inventory of three faces came
out of an inventory of four total that are available in the
tetrahedron. And the inventory of three edges came out of an
inventory of six that are available. So that the sixness and
fourness were very different inventories. Somehow around any
one vertex nature had arranged to put them in neat balance of
different inventories.
"Consider the case I spoke of one time of the cheese tetrahedron
as pushing one of the faces towards the opposite vertex.
I am
not going to talk about it as a cheesenow, but for a moment we
will think of it just as a plane. As the top plane of this
tetrahedron-- I am going to move it (the plane) towards this
opposite vertex. Finally I move it until it is congruent with"

agreed that the conditions of symmetry in the tetrahedron, the
sixness and fourness, are all still there, but they are empty.
"Now with this plane congruent with the opposite vertex we have
a very interesting condition. We have all four planes of the
tetrahedron going through the same point at the same time-- or,
theoretically, as close as you can ever get. You have six edges
going through the same point at the same time. We have agreed
that this is a condition that can never happen in reality, but
in the vector equilibrium-- where it has no size-- we have the
only possible time when this would seem to occur.
"So we now have all six edges and a total inventory of four faces
and six edges all going through the same theoretical point at
the same
moment. We have said that this is a vector
equilibrium and in a zero condition and is nonreality. Nature
would not permit it. But a minute after that, those six edges
turbine around the point one way or another-- and you see plenty
of models of the lines turbining around-- but we will have to
say that there had to be a moment theoretically when this plane"

and we already had
tetrahedron as an indestructible conceivable
phenomenon independent of size. And then we have it getting

its own true zero vector equilibrium. It is very interesting
to realize what that condition

nature apparaently does not permit in our life, but what we

"Now let's look at the present situation in agriculture
where the basic food production is. Of the total vegetable
crop harvesting about 10 percent is actually, finally
available for human consumption in America. There are various
reasons for this, but it is if you were sort of standing and
picking apples, and for every nine apples that you pick, you
only get one in your basket. It's a very frustrating,

have enclosures or areas. So Euler had areas, vertexes,

"Inspired by naturés nut, mollusk, egg, and vegetable shells,
men learned, hundreds of milleniums ago, how to hollow out or

Learning gradually how to expand the vessel-making art, men
finally hollowed out largelogs and then later shaped and
tied together tree planks, later bent around stout frames.
They pitch-sealed the seams between planks to exclude, rather
than include, the hydraulic element, as had their carlier
water-holding vessel, the vase-- yes, short for vessel.

principles governing stabilized separations of liquids and

solution of local environment pattern-controlling by man

Visibility & Invisibility of Systems:
"There are six uniquely differentiable components of all
systems and of all thoughts: (1) insideness; (2) outsideness;
and (3) (4) (5) (6) the four star events that do the defining
of the insideness and the outsideness, which inadvertently

six interrelationships, which, in turn, inadvert-
ently define
four triangles; which, again inadvertently
define
the four areas (openings) of most economical
omniinterrelationships between the triangles'
edge-defining lines that definingly exclude the
macro-outsideness and definingly include the
micro-insideness.
"Therefore there are six parts of Universe and four of them
are always humanlyconceptualizable and always define the
successively considerable domains of human thought, while the
other two of the six cosmic parts are always invisible; i.e.,
the ultra-macro tunable otherness and the infra-micro tunable
otherness.

invisible macro and micro. The four visible parts define
the system."

Visual Symphony:

"What World Game does have is confrontations... in terms of
sounds, words, and languages. When we had the radio, it was
only words. People are going to say that in the television
there is only an embellishment: the fact that you can see, and
nothing more. We can only shout a half mile. Words are in
all languages, special languages. But sight is a universal
language.
A person goes to a horse race in Japan and on TV it's
the same thing. This is not like radio at all. I can see
700 million miles an hour and I can hear only 700 miles an hour.
The step-up to sight was a millionfolding.
"The information that TV really gives to people; when there's
a program there the kids are feeling the dancing, and feeling
the gravity. And this is informing them in ways that they have
no idea of how they are really being informed. And World Game
has to work this way.

of chords at a time. It takes you an hour to wait and hear the
whole symphony. In sum total they have only so many notes in "

RBF DEFINITIONS
Visual Symphony:
"the symphony, maybe five or ten thousand, whatever it is.
You look at the sky and you're looking at a symphony that took
over a million years. You're looking simultaneously at events
that took place
a million years ago. We forget that sight is
incredible. World
Game is a visualization of so much that is
not otherwise visible.
(2)
"You have to realize that every thing I do is synergetic and has
to be talked
about only in terms of the big complex. Thepoint
is
that man cannot see the very limited spectrum of motion and
change. He can't see the stars moving from the distances where
they are, an incredible distance, the motion rate at which they
are moving; he can't see the tree grow. And if he doesn't see
something in motion, coming at him, he doesn't get out of the
way. But it is possible to step-up and step-down, so that he
can suddenly see
all these things coming together to WHAM!...
and that's
exactly what World Game is: it's always visual....
You
have this slow playback. The point is that World Game can
make visible what was
not visible in the statistics or in curves."

Vitalistics:
"At the outset certain new words must be introduced, among
which are vitalistics to replace the dead word statistics,
and mobilata to supersede data. These substitutions are
necessary in order to incorporate a time element and to make
allowance for the constant adjustment of figures into the
meanings of the words. Statistics are static, time-less, the
blinding dust of death. Vitalistics and mobilata, on the
other hand are appropriately used in connection with a cosmic
inventory because scientific events and corrections may cause
a one hundred percent amplification or refinement in our
cosmic inventory even before the manuscript reciting the
items can be printed."

"Because these metric values are rational (values that
can be expressed as a ratio of a whole number), all the

Synergetics" are rational when expressed 'tetrahedrally'
rather than 'cubically."

Volumetric Annihilation:
"The octahedron provides an example of volumetric
annihilation when you remove one vector and reduce the
figure to three tetrahedra triple-bonded. This also
reduces from the volumetric value of four to the
volumetric value of three. The process is, of course,
reversible.

"What Michael Berz is discovering here and what I had
discovered and incorporated in the Kepler-like drawing of con-
centric symmetrical geometries of the 12 spheres surrounding
the nuclear sphere (Fig. 982.61) and all the other well-known
symmetrical systems which I showed in the chart, which occurs
below my drawing showing
that the central
sphere has a volume of and the central sphere is in fact the
spherical icosahedron, giving complete rational value to the
sphere in the terms of the vector equilibrium's 20-ness, the
octahedron's fourness, the rhombic dodecahedron's sixness,
the cube's threeness and the tetrahedron's oneness. This
particular drawing and the hierarchy of volumes I consider to
be the most important single contribution of the whole book,
'Synergetics.'
"This is why I felt devastated by the lack of color as well as
the separation of the drawing from the hierarchical chart
which itself had been done in color. This is the very essence
of what Kepler's great drawing hoped to discover but failed to
do so because of his assumption of the cube for volumetric unity.

with the tetrahedron as unity, then the cube somes out even.
These are all whole rational numbers. It is an extraordinary
