Index Entry
Tidal:
“Strutted trusses are high-tide aspects of edges . . . solids are high-tide aspects. . . Spheres are high-tide aspects of vectors. . In your closest packing you have the 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 intangency. 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.”
