I don't see it as "selling out" to work with the Sacred Geometry crowd on upgrading their computer graphics and animations to incorporate more themes from our Cascadian Synergetics ala the posters by Casey House of Syn-U.
The SG community already has an abiding interest in geometry, both 2D and 3D, and occasionally nD (n = "any"), as if there's one place where the standard normie paradigm is open to spirituality, it's in the realm of "higher dimensional beings" ala Abbott's Flatland. Indeed, expectant waiting for AGI to emerge from AI deep learning (some say it has) is arguably a spiritist cult if not a full-fledged religion.
Yet despite my letting myself off the hook in allowing myself to dive in to SG, I'm more fishing for SG veterans who want to avail of concentric hierarchy themes, primarily these alternative models of combining dimensions and making height-width-depth a tetrahedral affair, with two "snakes" making complementary zig-zags, or call them "cobras".
Once snakes start intertwining we're in Caduceus country, the realm of Hermes, and from there it's easy to access mercurial texts and symbolic meanings, going back to Toth and before. We start sounding more like Theosophists in reaching back to ancient Polynesia for an alternative creation story, tracing humanity to idyllic beginnings. From Eden to Zion, could be the arc, with Zion the planetary system, including satellites, both natural (the moon) and artificial (Hubble space telescope).
I've been going back to Marshall McLuhan a lot lately. The way he got dropped from the syllabus suddenly had to do with his having to peers to carry the torch forward. I'd argue Synergetics is McLuhanesque and Fuller's fascination with Phoenician finds its echo in McLuhan. The Phoenician helped readers develop a mind's eye TV per Marshall, which Fuller associates with Euler in his more psychological passages. Gibbs is more gut-level for Fuller, visceral, tactile. The two combine, synergize, to make our sense.
Marshall manages to squeeze more meaning from Finnegans Wake then most I'd say, in how he sees it alluding to the movement from movies (films, cinema) to a yet more immersive television. Television leaves more to the imagination in some ways, drawing viewers in as a participating partners than leaving them to speculate more objectively and independently. At the same time, TV was distilling us into a Global Village, by which McLuhan did not mean some smoothly operational form of global governance. He meant something messier and more claustrophobic. I doubt he'd be surprise by our term "doom scrolling".
I've also been revisiting Synergetics against the backdrop of William Blake, thanks to Daniel, and the latter's "marriage of Heaven and Hell." Blake counterposes Energy, desire in action, with a countervailing Reason that keeps Energy in harness, systematized. Imbalances either way lead to pathologies, harmful disequilibria. With Fuller, it's Radiation versus Gravity, always complementary, and therefore a unity of opposites in the SG sense (more Jungian).
