Hence, circular infinity is both monistic and dualistic at the same time. If focusing on the inner circles, a duality appears but if the inner circles are seen as being a part of the larger circle (since the circles continue infinitely outward as well), a monism appears. Put another way, base-2 circular/spherical infinity can be seen as dualistic or monistic depending on one's perception and focus.

Such is the nature of nature to be and not be a paradox. It works if you think about it.and understand it. The contradiction of "absolute relativity" appears and disappears relative to the extent at which the concept is understood (related to). I would think this concept applies to all self-similar patterns (fractals).Enclosing a circle ( ) with a larger square touching the circle's outsides, then enclosing the square with a larger circle touching the square's corners (), and so on infinitely.However, this can lead to a sort of "fractal absolute relativity" in which, simply by zooming in or out on the "contained absolute relativity", can result in nested absolute relativities (like circular/spherical infinity). A number of points all connected to each other (such as a 12-vertex complete graph-see image at right).Other visual representations of absolute relativity could be: This may seem paradoxical but, regarding the seeming apparent contradiction between the absoluteness of "all is relative", consider that the absolute can, in theory, only exist in whole ( monism) only if everything within (relative to) that whole is relative to everything else (also relative to that whole)-"absolute relativity". In 2005-6, various Second Life iterations of circular/spherical infinity were created.Īll of these applications of circular/spherical infinity can be thought of as sets and subsets (sets within sets) and hierarchial.Ī philosophical construct I subscribe to, and circular/spherical infinity relatively illustrates, is the term "absolute relativity", which basically means everything is relative to itself and interconnected. In or around December 1999, this webpage was created. 1Ĭircular infinity was originally created in Adobe PageMaker in 1997, later redone in Adobe Photoshop, and made into a 3D model ("spherical infinity") around when it was first "published" in the Active Worlds worlds Hole and Cubed (before it was taken down-but is still sometimes in a larger form in Hole). This version is a base-2 division but a base-3 (and higher) division version is possible and used in esoteric literature. Vortices can also be seen by spiraling down along the circle lines. Another interesting thing about this image is that it can be drawn by simply making smaller and smaller figure-8s (infinity symbol), which only intersect in the center. I didn't know what this was at the time but, after a bit of researching on the Web, I emailed a math professor who told me this image is "a depiction of a 'Cantor-like' process".

A friend at the time said it reminded him of the Cantor set. This image, which I call "circular infinity" (2D) or "spherical infinity" (3D), is based off fractals and the yin-yang symbol, and also reminds me of an electromagnetic field and very much like this chakra field diagram (, )- (and somewhat like this version of chakra energy flow -see Wikipedia: chakra for general info).
