Pulse Pattern:
“We come into some very interesting conditions of the tetrahedron where we find that a strip of paper, remember that we are exploring ways in which nature with a given frequency will do certain things. Remember also precession. We find resultant of forces are not at 180° and therefore there is a tendency to go off angularly. Therefore a zig-zag like this of identical length members becomes a very fundamental precessional consequence of a high frequency event. … A continuous strip like this when folded down, down, up, down, down, up, down, down, up, would fold back on itself and form the tetrahedron and octahedron. … and the octet truss and fill all space.”
