understanding cubism
johannes kepler put an end or evolved the heliocentrism of the greeks
the circular obsession as koestler stated ... to a spherical representation
where everything in the universe consisted of spheres and cones
the spheres and cones were represented by cubism as cylinders
cones and spheres and thus 'cubist'
the painting style and implication was philosophical and related
to an understanding or to say the least a 'supposition'
about the universe and ourselves, who we are and what are we are doing
on an alleged heliocentric ball of water
circling around a hot fire and radioactive sun
in a sphere or cone or cylinder ???
good question
of course koestler proposes that the extension of the sphere
cone or cylinder analogy implies that the orbit is elliptical and not circular
and thus
the circle obsession and helio pontification was also
the great middle aged debate on who
was right and who owned the rights to tell others
what was right and what was wrong
and therefore in pure poetic sarcastic fashion
a black hole is elliptical
and that there is not an elliptical math
that can be comprehended ... if the ellipse itself
has many variations
so not only the idea of math as design as a box
and square to explain the circle thus
but the confusion even more to explain the 'pi'
of the ellipse even more ... and even more of a complicated bust
so better to create art and make love
then to argue about black holes and mathematical absurdities
or discrepancies
than to figure out the elliptical math of koestler
though i think it to be different
i think it is a sphere of perfectly rounded objects
