Durer’s Melencolia.
Monday 20 February 2012
In ‘The Sum of Things’ I mention about Albrecht Durer’s Melencolia and the 4 x 4 Magic Square of Jupiter. It uses the values 1 to 16 and adds up to 34 in any direction and the total value = 136. The
Thanks to Ken Taylor for his work on the Math, and for his write-up on ‘The Sum of Things’.

The Sum of Things

When I was invited to contribute a quotation for the back cover of the first edition (2007), I reflected on my impressions of Paul's remarkable book (he had
Properties of the 1.732 Rectangle in the Hexagon or Hexagram.
As I mention in ‘The Sum of Things’, and in many posting’s o GHMB (Graham Hanock’s Forum), the relationship between an expanding set of 1.732 (Sqrt 3) rectangles produces a 30 degree angle in the widths, plus a 60 degree angle in the lengths, as in each step the length of the smaller rectangle becomes the width of the next larger one to it in size. The rectangle of 1.732 is the rectangle produced in the measurement of the hexagon or the 6th division of the circle. A point on the Globe where we find the GPs of Giza in the division of the Polar Circumference by 6 or 12s. I modern terms the GP stand about a mile from the present 30 degree line of latitude.

I my discussions on GHMB I had noted a relationship between the 1.732 rectangle and the value of Phi = 1.618 and that the 2 have a relationship through adding rectangles together. I had just done
Rodin’s Torus and it’s Match to the Lo Shu.
The Matching of Lee Burton’s and Paul Martyn-Smith’s working’s on the I Ching and Rodin’s Torus. Part 2:- The LO Shu and the 9 x 9 Square of the Moon.
My work with Lee Burton on Rodin’s Torus has seen the math of ‘The Changes’ in the Inner working’s of the Sub-atomic Measure revealed, through The Well, and Ba Gua, and in their construction of the
