"Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth."
is a quote attributed to the famous artist Pablo Picasso.
And indeed, the further I dig into the science of art, the further I understand the art of science.
Art and science have more in common as we would have guessed at the first impression. The entire framework of science seems to be outwardly-based, while the arts seem to be more interested into the internally-based side.
While the scientist observes the world around him, the artist observes himself. And why shouldn't we be able to do both, say to look into oneself to understand how the subconsciousness recognizes the outside world?
Furthermore; Where even lies the difference between the outside and the inside; Where are the boundaries between the observer and the observed? What even is the "inside" and what is the "outside", if the entire world we do inhabit is also part of ourselves?
Where lie the limits of my being if I become more and more of what surrounds me?
Buckminster Fuller wrote in his book Synergetics the following:
Universe to each must be
All that is, including me.
Environment in turn must be
All that is, excepting me.
All life only exists due to contrast, due to polarity, and their very artistic interplay.
Art is a way of expression, just as science and mathematics; The only difference lies in the patterns they offer. Just as ice and water consist of the same, they still behave far different than the other. And so are the elements of our body;
Also: We are not the elements that make up our human body, we are the processes that give them these shapes, these thoughts, these impressions and these feelings. We are not what we are made up by. We are what we make out of it.
The very present moment is the only reality there is, for tomorrow is only a dream and yesterday has already perished into the void of all oblivion...
The gift of consciousness is only a temporal shape in the eternal void of being.
And in the end, art, science and also some kind of spirituality are bound together in such an intertwined way.
Why shouldn't we stand in awe of the majesty of the machinery of life? Why should we ever stop to wonder about the biggest mysteries life itself has gifted to us? And why should we lose all emotion in the process of coming to understand our precious cosmos?
Science often faces so many prejudices about being an emotionless field of study; But that is so far away from the truth, because the more I am able to comprehend what was once meant to be incomprehensible, the more I am impressed, fascinated, thrilled, and most of all, thankful for the gift of life, despite all these difficulties I had yet to face.
Science has been the biggest source of spirituality and inspiration for me; Unlike all fictive products humans have created themselves, nature is by far the most creative and complex creator. Nature never fails to impress me.
And indeed, Richard Feynman was right about this:
"The imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man."
Many arts are limited by ones own imagination, mathematics, nature's language in a way, goes far beyond. The world of logic, and the worlds that result out of it, are not bound to anything only our limited minds are capable of renderaing.
Nature itself is the biggest artist as well as scientist. And why shouldn't we too? Why should we limit our world into one way of seeing, if the multiplicity of perspectives are the start of the symphony and poetry of life?
Why should we limit our perspective into only recognizing, say, the solid state of matter, or only the liquid or gaseous state? In the end, it is the interplay that makes existence vivid and colorful. So why should we limit our view to black and white, forgetting there are far more shades in between, not even mentioning the color spectrum, or even getting a glimpse about the other 90% of all we can't see of the electromagnetic spectrum?
To see reality as it is, means recognizing its uncountable layers and interactions between them.
Art and science should not hate each other, for they are each other's counterpart; Only through polarity, existence comes to life...
And now is the time to close your eyes and begin to see... Let's drown in analogies and wake up in a dream that's called reality.
Beyond imagination limitation! Furthermore beyond old conventions used to divide the arts from the sciences the art series Cubic extraction of the hyperspherical plane could bring new insights and perpectives into the worlds of surreal art, mathematics, as well as cognitive science and quantum gravity research!

Did you know that the irrational and imaginary numbers e, pi and i shape the word EPI (center)? Interesting coincidence I think!
Entropic decay
Ordered disorder and entropic decay; In course of time, everything complexifies itself until it simplifies itself; It's all about growth, decay, splitting and fusing. That's the breath of brahma. Everything comes, grows, persists for a while, decays and perishes into the eternal void where it all came from...
Theory of everything
Combining General Relativity with Quantum Mechanics has been one of the greatest goals of modern physics, unfortunately many scientists try to not recognize that the one is nested into the other, much like comparing apples with apple trees...
Everything is nothing with a twist
If you look at the symbols for zero and infinity you know why everything is nothing with a twist.
Disorder distorter
Distorting disorder in means of order; creation of ordered disorder through distortion.

Ambigram Refract Iterate
Often fractions/parts of fractals get iterated, so said, copied and simultaneously slightly changed. Iterations and refractions are often related.
What happens if you refract an idea and instantly iterate it?
Ambigram Spacetime
What is the difference between a space and a time dimension?
Space dimensions have two directions of propagation for each, whilst time has only one direction of propagation, namely the future. Traveling back in time is not possible.
Furthermore, imagine a two-dimensional circle: If you add a third space dimension to it, the circle will turn into a sphere. But if you add the time dimension to it, the circle will turn into a helix.
Ambigram Merge and Morph
Merging patterns is the process of morphing.
Ambigram Future History
Every future will turn into history; and every history was once also a future.
Ambigram Medieval Cyborg
In my imagination, Professor Faust created the first cyborg back in his medieval times, and incarnated the superhumanoid AI in it.
The future has already happened in the past. - Welcome on bord in the intra-time-travel machinery that is your mind; embrace the madness beyond the limitation of your imagination.

The project Bright side of darkness displays a part of the formerly depressing reality nihilistic philosophy offers, but with a bright insight. It's an art series contemplating the philosophical, mathematical and scientific values, and emotional attachment to void.
Even the darkest abyss can bring the highest form of enlightenment. And more than often it is through suffering through which we can experience joy and happiness. Life is not meant to never hurt; Actually pain is what makes us feel alive, and moreover it is through pain through which we really grow. Even the most obscure darkness offers a glimpse of light. Once we are able to understand what darkness really is; a base, a foundation, a medium, merely like an unwritten piece of paper that needs to be filled. Darkness often represents void, and why should we consider void to have a negative meaning? Why do we find a lack of purpose saddening, if we, we ourselves can create meaning all by ourselves? The hunt for a primordial sense of purpose is rather futile. - See, isn?t it kind of ironic? Maybe the only sense of sense is senselessness itself; Once you hunt it, it will disappear. But once you just be, the entire concept of a pre-defined sense appears rather illogical, and therefor futile. Because the only sense of sense seems to be to make sense, do I make sense?
Embracing the inner void
When we start to embrace the inner void, emptiness is less threatening and merely a peace of mind.
Helping hand
We are our own lovely helping hand. It's okay to not be okay all the time.
Connection to the divine I
Each of us has the divine connection to the cosmos within of our own.

Maximalminimalism encounters polarity into a neat union in entangling equilibrium and culmination of simplicity and complexity.
How minimal can a concept be and still offer maximal expression? How much simplification can be used for still conveying the complexity of the portrayed issue?
How much generalization of the big picture can still lead to exact specialization of the details?
The maximal minimization of details in order to capture the essence of the main concept is the core of the philosophy of reductionism.
How many details can be erased without significantly changing the overall picture?
Maximalminimalism
Minimal quantity for maximal quality.
Parody of Paradoxes
The ODDity of the paradox, a parody of itself; Absurdism is what happens when nihilism observes itself.
Regenbogenabgrund - Rainbow abyss
The rainbow abyss; Beyond polarizing, igniting something worthwile out of suffering; we can find enlightenment in the deepest depths of despair.
To exist means to suffer; but to live means to find joy in the process of suffering.
What even is darkness? And why do we give it a negative value? Isn't darkness just the medium, like an empty piece of paper that wants to be filled?
Why does a lack of a pre-defined sense of purpose appear depressing to us, if we ourselves can create sense entirely on our own? Why don't we find it liberating to decide for ourselves what we want to do with the short period of time we are able to experience consciousness?
A pre-defined sense of purpose would be too futile - and isn't it kind of ironic?
Nothing with a twist
Everything is nothing with a twist. The symbols for infinity and zero perfectly nestle onto said concept. Infinity is just zero with a twist, or with a knot....leading us to the Nodus Vacui, the concept of the void knot...
Nodus Vacui - Void knot
Nodus Vacui is latin and stands for "void knot". It encapsulates the idea of mathematical reality turning into physical reality by looping into itself multiple times and forming a knot.
No (Id)Entity
An identity is an entity that is conscious of its own consciousness, hence a kind of looped consciousness.
Mind tangle
Some thought processes are like knotting neurons until they are fully tangled into a wired clot.
Last wonderer - lost wanderer
The lost mind wanderer is also the last wonderer. In order to find onself one must first lose oneself.

Unknown (id)entity
Beyond imagination limitation we can find our true and universal identity; It was never the light that enlightened us; It was darkness, for only through the process of losing oneself one can find one's real self. Who are you if no one is looking?
The blind seer
What might appear paradox at first, isn't actually paradox at all, for a seer doesn't "see" with their eyes, but with their mind.
The world we do inhabit consists of far more than what we are only limited to see; I don't mean it in a particular spiritual sense, but in the fact that when we come to understand this world, the things in it, and also ourselves, we are able to construct a far larger big picture than we are limited by using solely our eyes.
This world is fascinating, and why shouldn't we be curious about finding "what the world holds together in its innermost", as to quote Goethe?
Hence, close your eyes and begin to see...
The eyes are useless if the mind is blind...
Let your mind wander for curiosity has its reason for existing. Why should nature gift us with the blessing of complex consciousness, if we couldn't use it?

Extrospect via introspect:
And I look deep into myself
and recognize how my subconsciousness perceives the outside world.
I still see reality;
twisted, mirrored and turned;
but it's still a version of the real world.
Veiled by many illusions the mind may bear it still somehow reflects the outside world;
Welcome to the Klein Bottle that is the self-referent mind!
Mechanical Heart
Better understanding oneself can also help to understand the outside world. To recognize that our perception is subjective, and that reality is basically a collection of the most various, often also paradoxical, subjective views, leads to the conception of the holographic consensus. The truth is manifold and often interleaved several times and polarized within itself.
Chalice of the dark unknown
Isn't it the unknown that inspires us? By exploring the unknown, we can recognize it, understand it. However, the more one explores the unfathomed, the less the mysteries diminish. One question usually leads to a multitude of many other questions.
And it's true, because the more you understand, the more you understand what you don't understand. The more the body of the fathomed grows, the larger becomes the area that is surrounded by the vaste sea of the yet unfathomed.
Cosmic Evolution
It is something so impressive to understand that we ourselves are the result of 13.7 billion years of cosmic evolution.
Every chemical element we are made of is the result of nuclear fusion, of dying stars.
Every molecule, or rather every element in it, in us may come from a completely different star.
Escaping Gödel's Incompleteness
In order to escape contradictions, one needs a meta-level; This can be continued and nested as much as you like.
But how can one escape from escape from escape itself now? That's it; You can't, and yet each further iteration leads to new knowledge; Each further nested calculation / iteration has less and less impact on the overall picture; It's just like calculus with infintesimals...
Evolve the mathemagician
"Microscopic chaos creates macroscopic order."; This is how Hermann Haken described the behavior of self-organization in complex systems. He coined the term synergetics, which represents the study of interaction.
A core element of this research area is emergence, which means: the creation of patterns in systems which the elements of it don't have themselves.
Emergence is a principle in which a system becomes so complex that it simplifies itself again - it is thus an indirect counterpart, as well as a result, of the entropy, which strives for complexification and mixing.
Fibonacci's ground
The Fibonacci sequence is nothing more than the combination of the past and the present that creates the future. The present is mostly determined by previous behavior. Without intervention, this sequence leads to behavior that is rigid, inflexible.
Habits are usually established in this very principle; When you're doing more and more of the same thing, it becomes more difficult to change. You can't change the past, but you can change the present. In the natural mode, this corresponds to maintaining habits. But through active intervention you can train yourself to behave differently step by step.
You can't change the past, but you can change most of the present yourself.
You don't even have to have a clear goal in mind, but an idea of the rough direction is often beneficial.
Even abrupt changes are rarely realistic.
Continuity and consistency are the key to success. You don't grow if you never make mistakes. Ultimately, it's the mistakes that make us learn.
In the eye of fibonacci
Pattern recognition is also an art of perceptual filters: if you focus too much on details, your view of the holistic context becomes blurred; However, if you leave out too many details, the overall picture becomes distorted as well.
Over-simplification often leads to misinformation.
Into the impossible
The more you understand reality, the more it appears utterly surreal: Deep science is indeed a mind-altering process. What seemed to be so trivial at first sight turns out to be a product of hyper-complex causal nets.
Klein bottle foundation
A klein bottle is a non-orientable surface; This means that you cannot distinguish what is outside and what is inside.
The name of this surface as "bottle" is actually a result of a translation error.(Area/surface in German means Fläche, and bottle means Flasche)
Well, it is very difficult to distinguish between surfaces and bottles, especially if they are Klein (The mathematician who discovered this object was Felix Klein. Also; klein in German means small.)
Mind hack
"The more you look into nature, the more you understand everything."; something like that is a quote that is attributed to Einstein.
Indeed, the more one observes one's own cognition, the more one understands mechanisms that occur both in mathematical cognitive science as well as in quantum computing, i.e. the programming of systems that are based on probabilistic quantum mechanics, as opposed to simplistic binary - based systems.
Ultimately, the entire human cognition also obeys a certain degree of algorithmics.
Orderly Chaos
What even is chaos?
Chaos is not randomness, but also follows logical and deterministic sequences. Chaos is nothing more than a more complex form of order. The simplest form of order is a strict separation of different things;
Entropy is therefore only the strive for interaction, mixing and complexification.
Human DNA is a good example of this; Because this is a complex mixture of different molecules and elements, which however follow a strict order, a sequence, basically a pattern.
Often, complexification also means that the systems sort themselves; This behavior is known as emergence and can be found in all kinds of systems; in physical, chemical, biological, psychological or social systems. I would also add some mathematical systems here.
The beginning of time
Time is just a kind of space, too. But what is the difference between a space and a time dimension?
To be honest, the answer is astonishingly simple: space dimensions have two directions of propagation for each dimension; The time dimension has only one direction of flow/propagation.
You can travel back and forth in space, but you cannot go back in time.
The type of transformation of a circle is also different: with three spatial dimensions, the circle becomes a sphere, with a time dimension the circle becomes a helix, a three-dimensional spiral.
The steps towards perfection
You take little, say infinitesimal, steps towards the details. To create the highest possible correct and exact reality model it requires steps of approximation.
Initially, Newton's theory of gravity was correct and accurate enough for many phenomena; However, it could not explain why the perihelion, say, the orbit of Mercury, rotated every time.
This problem was eliminated with Einstein's theory of gravity. However, the whole issue became not only more precise but also much more complex. Where Newton viewed space and time as a rigid stage, it emerged from Einstein's theories that space and time are not only a continuum, but also that they have a flexible nature. Thus, space-time itself became an active player in the dance of life.
But also the General theory of relativity, which describes gravity, does not provide accurate information about microcosmic behaviour, say, probabilistic-based quantum mechanics.
While quantum mechanics can describe the three non-gravitational fundamental forces, it is not possible through them to adequately grasp gravity.
For this you now need a so-called Theory of Everything, which requires an even more difficult complexity.
Efforts for these TOEs are primarily the string theories, which are summarized in the M-theory, and quantum gravity.
The string theories postulate about the existence of one-dimensional "strings", i.e. vibrating strings, which are found in the elementary particles. The downside of this idea inevitably means that the universe would then have to have eleven spatial dimensions instead of three. Last but not least, it is difficult to convince because it requires many unprovable and incomprehensible assumptions.
Is string theory really a potential representative for an exact model of reality or is it just a mathematical gimmick?
Quantum gravity sees the issue from a different perspective; In this thesis space and time are quantized, i.e. put into packages of tiny space and time intervals.
Loop quantum gravity is the most elaborate representative of this thesis.
The weird world of gravity
Gravitaty is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. However, it differs considerably from the other three fundamental forces, i.e. the strong and weak nuclear forces, as well as electromagnetism.
Gravity's mechanism of action is clearly different from that of the three non-gravitational fundamental forces; While the strong nuclear force is the strongest, but has the smallest working radius in the subatomic / inner-nucleotide range, the weak nuclear force is somewhat weaker, but has a slightly larger effective radius, in the atomic range, and electromagnetism too, depending on the strength, has a working radius over meters and a few kilometers, the working radius of gravity is thousands of kilometers and even light years.
Furthermore, gravity can also be interpreted as acceleration due to density.
Theory of Everything
Every generalization or summary of theses and models inevitably leads to an exponential increase in complexity.
In my opinion, the combination of contradicting mechanisms is essential for the creation of a complex system based on emergence; Polarity is therefore the origin of diversity, variety, and life itself.
The surrealism of reality
...just another non-orientable surface in the non-euclidean matrix of reality, or another unknown_(id)entity embedded in the n-dimensional pre-frontal cortex of the grey matter midst the biological calabi-yau-manifold1 of a complex recursive loop system2 nested in an organism called "planet earth" anywhere revolving in the solar system spiraling on a branch at the edge of the milky way galaxy...
