Closest Packing of Spheres:
“Spheres are high-tide aspects of vectors. In your closest packing you have your spheres which are just the high-tide aspects . . . because the lines are now hidden between the points of tangency. It is very easy to be greatly misled when you see two spheres in tangency. There is only one line between the two. This is where you see that unity is two because the line breaks itself into radii of the two spheres.”
