Statement
These works reveal some of the correlations unlocked by exactly Squaring the Circle by perimeter/circumference; an insoluble problem; but for all practical purposes, reconciling the irreconcilable. From this can be extracted: the proportion known as the Golden Section, within which, one wavelength/amplitude describes precisely the geometry of the energetic armature on which "hangs" the Mortal Coil, the origin and source of many ancient symbols; and the door to the secret of light, which is in the Wave. This geometry is embodied in the Great Pyramid @ Giza, Egypt; the base of which is a square; the perimeter is equal to the circumference of a circle, the radius of which is equal to the Pyramid's height. The piano keyboard, w/its two "missing" half-tones in each octave, reflects that the ear recognizes that the progress from one note to its octave, does not proceed uniformly; but is retarded in two places. this anomaly reflects wave phenomenon in general; a key to the work.
