Windows of Nothingness:
“What Euler and all professional topologists called ‘areas’ are only windows in polyhedrally conceptual systems. You look out the window at the nothingness of undimensional night–or of fog. The windows packaged the undimensionable nothingness into arbitrary somethingness which thus misassigns the dimensions of the windows and their closed-circuit edges to constitute dimensional attributes of the undimensional nothingness so framed. It is just like going to the blackboard and drawing a ‘square’ and saying to the students, ‘A square is an area bound by a closed line of four equal-length edges and four equiangled corners,’ without paying any attention to the inherently existent complementations of Universe. To start off with, the phenomenon ‘square’ is dependent on the phenomenon ‘blackboard,’ whose structural matrix alone maintained the symmetrical shape of the non-structurally-stabilized pattern of the square. The closed-line pattern of the square inadvertently subdivides the whole surface of the polyhedral blackboard into two areas, both bound by the closed line of four equal edges and four equal angles. The four equal edges of the large complementary square are the same length as those of the small square; the big square’s corners are 270° each while the small square’s corners are 90° each. Moreover, the drawing of the square also inadvertently subdivided the insideness and outsideness of”
