¶ Cube
Index Entry
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.”
