The Double Six Pursuers LilSchlafli

The sculptors of the Schlafli Double Six have some interesting comments and questions they welcome any and encourage any response to their views. A Conversation recorded by T. P. Wilson, SuperAM Magazine.

Mike Moran - "What did Ludwig accomplish with his concept known as the Schlafli Double Six and what was its impact on the Mathematical world as it was utilized?

Mike Moran - "Can someone show us the 'formula' for the Schlafli Double Six?" Laszlo - "...and can you describe the formula in everyday terms?"

Mike Moran - "It seems to show that mathematically at least that there is basically a virtually unlimited energy source out there for free if we could tap into it...I think?"

Laszlo - "The Schlafli double six as far as I am concerned is making a connection between a triangular shape and a square shape in a golden section manner...a golden mean cutting through by squaring the triangle or triangulating the square. Finding symmetrical reference points that put these two bodies or shapes in a symmetrical relation to one another. And so the solution of this problem is three dimensional and I think the Schlafli Double Six underlines the marking of the symmetrical reference points."

Laszlo - "My impression...about the subject is that the (Quasicrystal) experiments by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, tried achieve some hints about what's happening to matter before it takes on certain shapes, or crystallizes. Because before that it is in a liquid state and all it's particles are chaotic, moving manner...and so the first hardened spatial arrangement that it can take up is as quasicrystals. (resulting in the Schlafli Double Six shape)."

Laszlo - (Right after chaos stops and elements harden.) "This is the first possible constellation of elements that can be measured."

Mike Moran - "The hard definition of chaos is that if you break things down small enough you can't exactly duplicate it."

Laszlo - "You can have reference to what kind of an order would be prevailing in a higher dimension and from a mathematical point of view it is just a matter of symbols. And it is easier to see than it is to understand."

Laszlo - "The Schlafli Double Six lines (yellow) best describes the relationships between those two possible constellations. The tetrahedron(red) and the cube(green)."

Mike Moran - "For whatever reason we thought let's make the biggest cube you could put inside the tetrahedron that doesn't violate its boundaries or planes. This resulted in the magic points and views when you see the sculpture, boom you see this...boom you see that...I mean there is a definite visual magic to it that can get you."

Laszlo - "The closest thing I could find is like the Sri Lantra which is like a creation symbol of the universe it demonstrated the passage from formlessness where form takes place, and in the Indian view they look at the cosmos as a continuum not as abrupt elements. To me that refers to Schlafli's work he calls the theory of continuity."

Mike Moran - "I think when Schlafli came up to his final double.. when his light bulb went on and there's the Schlafli Double Six the beauty and perfection that he saw in the formula or the relationship ... for the common guy could only, I think, be sort of semi-appreciated by seeing it.. you know...in a physical representation."

Laszlo - "...definitely it is a representation of a really high order of symmetry with references to higher dimensions as well, so maybe you can get glimpses of those by contemplating the essence of this." (the sculpture of the Schlafli Double Six)"
