the tone of the imaginary octagon

When one is not a
two digit calculator
and has done the arithmetic
every number is at
the simplest level
the determinate of eight other
intimately related numbers
the near nile dwellers
had an idea or two
around eight as the
origin of
all things
arranged in 
complimentary pairs
one half giving 
the other half taking

Spectroscopy in Theory aka Ψ Φ μθσιχ PSIPHI Musi~ch

  Theory [ edit ] The underlying premise of spectroscopy is that light is made of different wavelengths and that each wavelength corresponds to a different frequency. The importance of spectroscopy is centered around the fact that every element in the  periodic table  has a unique light spectrum described by the frequencies of light it emits or absorbs consistently appearing in the same part of the electromagnetic spectrum when that light is diffracted. This opened up an entire field of study with anything that contains atoms. Spectroscopy is the key to understanding the atomic properties of all matter. As such spectroscopy opened up many new sub-fields of science yet undiscovered. The idea that each atomic element has its unique spectral signature enabled spectroscopy to be used in a broad number of fields each with a specific goal achieved by different spectroscopic procedures. The  National Institute of Standards and Technology  maintains a public Atomic Spec...

  "The Golden Number is not the product of mathematical imagination  but the natural principle of the laws of equilibrium."  From averages established from measurements of the human body, it has been proved that the navel divides the total height of the body in the proportion of Φ to 1.  This formula is applied to classical Greek sculpture, and  in Egypt as well, except that in Egypt                                                             the crown of the head is excluded.  Let us recall, in this regard, the significance of the value Φ and  the geometric structure that defines  Φ. The value , or the Golden Number Φ , corresponds to the proportion    C / B = B / A                            when C = A + B  There i...
