(This is an exploration for a story I am writing)
The 2 suns and 3 moons kept each other company, playfully rearranging themselves, causing astrologers to run millisecond by millisecond charts. Axials were intricate to configure, and the numerology became endless recounts of Cartesian products. In the mathematical model the data was done in two valued predicate logic, having two possible subset evaluations for each proposition. So was this true, false, or not applicable? Null no longer existed in the numbers, everything meant something, even if that something was unknown. Could this relational math model bring logic and order?
Numbers are untamed by their order. Numbers and words are one - basic, binary,singular, and in my own mind I understand the unity of them.
The science of identity became based on the longitude and latitude in the universe at the time of birth, a pinpoint of fleeting time, a thumb tack on a map, a supernova in space, a planet unto her own. The universe in her belly, a black-hole in her history, a pit of matter - that could not be created nor destroyed.
This is a true story, if you say it is unlikely - ask yourself what is true, what is likely to be true? Here lies the difficultly of physical determinants - which are all in motion, as everyone and everything is in motion - the stability shifts, so what is solid is not solid - it is all just shifting matter. Everyone knew their place even if they did not know the mathematics that predicted it.
How would you put your life down on paper? How would you quantify what you've done? Social reporting, crowd sourcing your life - like objects you possess, instead of something you are, something you do, something untenable, summed up in three sentences or less. What you are is not a substance, it is a flow of energy, a flow of matter - a flux of substance, you are never the same person twice, your entire body's cells turn over every 7 years, not one cell in your body is the same as one you had 7 years ago.
How does the memory remain?
What is it that you need - time, space, land, sea, - what is it that you can build, change in time - in the set square of the universe? Searching the hell that heaven occupies, looking toward the skies with your feet so planted in the earth. Virgil and Dante in Dionysus's grove looking at the chiaroscura floorboards for who they were, for who they are, and who they will be.
