Quadernity launches the trend of untethering contests and conundrums from their typical two-quadrant polarizations and re-contextualizing them within Quadernity’s four-quadrant spectrum, from which breakthrough solutions and revolutionary discoveries will surely emerge.
Each of Quadernity’s four quadrants has two labels, for a total of eight labels. Half of those eight labels pertain to the process of INformation and the other half pertain to the process of OUTformation/Creation.
The Female Process of OUTformation is represented in the 3D model by a green surface. The Male Process of INformation is represented by a blue surface. As the Female and Male are never without each other, the surfaces are green on one side and blue on the other side, as seen below in screenshots that present the model from opposite angles.
The model will be manipulable by you the viewer; therefore, you will enjoy exploring all of its angles and, in due time, make your own discoveries of profound patterns and principles.
A link will be provided shortly to take you directly to the 3D model, which you will be able to manipulate in size and orientation. Before opening that link and beginning your increasingly agile exploration, some tips are offered to enhance your interactive experience.
Helpful Tips
I recommend that you print out this pdf file, Using the 3D Model, so that you can have it on hand as you are working with the model itself. The alternative option is to keep open the instructions (given herein below) and, in a separate window on your desktop open the actual model (linked in the next paragraph) so that you can utilize them simultaneously, side-by-side.
Once you have obtained the instructions by either method suggested above, use this link to access the 3D Manipulable Model, designed and hosted online by the brilliant graphics artist, Paul Saletzki. Deep gratitude Paul!!!
Instructions for Manipulating the 3D Model
When you open the link to the model this is what you will see:
At first glance, the image may be curious, if not confusing. Surprisingly, no labels are readable from the initial orientation. You must use your mouse or touch-pad to change the orientation of the model. To do that, click on the model and hold while dragging it upward until the model has labels visible above and below it, like this:
The entire model is constructed of two triangular surfaces, each with a wide base and a pointy apex. The base represents a growing toward the vast infinity, and the apex represents a shrinking toward an infinitesimally small point.
The uppermost label on the screen (INforming) is above a gap between the large bases of the two surfaces, where the apex of one triangle originates (left side) and the apex of the other triangle terminates (right side).
Correlate this gap with the Private Nighttime Relationship of the Chalkboard Model of Quadernity (reprinted below): where the Male‘s OUTput becomes the Female‘s INput. In the act of INforming, the Male, delivers to the Female a metaphysical Pattern in reaction to a sensual/physical experience.
Lowest on the model (see below) the label Creating/OUTforming tells us what is happening at the front seam, where the two triangles intersect.
This is what the Chalkboard Model of Quadernity (reprinted again below) describes as the Public Daytime Relationship: where the Female‘s OUTput becomes the Male‘s INput.
In the act of Creating/OUTforming, the Female physically Substantiates a metaphysical Structure, delivering Patterned Matter to receptive Male who Observes it in the physical domain.
Together the Female and Male coordinate their actions to function like a feedback system (see below). Each partner’s OUTput is the INput of the other.
Once initiated, feedback between the Female and Male would be entirely closed, as seen in the illustration above. This kind of feedback is possible to persist indefinitely in the context of mathematics. However, natural dynamical systems cannot be both persistent and exclusively closed. To replenish the energy lost to heat/entropy in each round, the system must, at least occasionally, acquire additional resources (whatever sources it again) from above/beyond their own feedback.
As seen in the 3D model, the gap between the bases of the triangles is a metaphorical representation of the bardo between life cycles, or a synapse between nerve cells, or the brief rest between your breaths. There exists the possibility of system initiation, creativity, restoration, and evolution.
Reading the Labels
To begin reading the labels on both sides of the four surface-segments (two large-outer and two small-inner), you will need to swivel the model from side to side. Again, with your mouse or track-pad click on the model and drag it from side to side or tilt it as you please.
REMEMBER: to change the model’s orientation, rather than its size, you must click and drag. Merely touching the mouse or touch-pad lightly will serve only to enlarge or shrink the model.
Depending on which set of labels you are exploring, you may need to make the model a bit smaller so that all text in both the upper and lower labels is fully visible on the screen. To shrink the model, on your mouse or track-pad lightly push your finger upward/away from you (zooming out). Pulling toward you (zooming in) will enlarge the model. It is quite responsive to your touch, so feel free to play with it a bit, running your finger upward/away and downward/toward yourself until the size is as large as it can be while keeping all the text in the upper and lower labels completely on-screen. If you shrink the model all the way to invisibility, do not panic; just draw your finger toward yourself and you will see it reappear.
All of this may seem more complicated than it actually is; however, you will quickly master it. As with learning to ride a bicycle or drive a car, the initial awkwardness is soon replaced with a graceful hand-eye coordination.

3D Model of Quadernity is Another Step Up from Previous Models
Quadernity, in all of its various models, consistently demonstrates that the minimal possible dynamical system must necessarily coordinate two processes: OUTformation and INformation, which involve two causal agents (considered Female and Male for their opposite functionalities) who receive INput from each other and produce OUTput for each other.
The Chalkboard Model of Quadernity gave us four labels for each process, for a total of eight labels. Whereas, initially, each of the four quadrants held two labels, one from each of the two processes.
One label seemed to be an adjective describing the other, which seemed to be a noun. For example, the labels in the LRQ, INformative Created, make it sound like the Created object (noun) is INformative (adjective). This is how I understood it for many years until this 3D model was revealed in my dream space one morning.
The 3D model shows us something new. It has the INformative in the outer right-side triangle that is growing larger and the Created in the inner right-side triangle that is shrinking to a point.
The INformative is the ever-expanding “outside-space” of the Created. The Created, on the other hand, eventually disintegrates its smaller and smaller “inside-space” Parts, which ultimately get resorbed into the ground state.
The outside-space operates by centrifugal Span (radiation toward the infinite), while the inside-space operates by centripetal Spin (vortex toward the infinitesimal).
Because we now have the triangles to indicate their opposite operations, one label cannot logically describe, or be an adjective of, the other label.
The Created and INformative are both labels/descriptors of something else, the Female Product/OUTput/Object, which is why they originally occupied the same quadrant (LRQ), and provided insights that worked adequately enough for beginner level.
In parallel structure, I initially thought the Creator (noun) was Informable (adjective). The 3D Model now offers further clarification, and remarkably without needing to rename the labels!
As seen in the 3D Model, the INformative links to the Creator (they are two sides of same surface) and, likewise, the Created links to the INformable.
Everything Created is INformable, or relatively sentient. In this regard, Quadernity is closely related to Panpsychism.
The combined outside-space above and beyond all INformable entities is INformative, but to whom? The Creator who resides in the Heavens from where He oversees everything, as so many stories tell us. (A white-bearded God accompanied by winged angels, or a white-bearded Santa Claus accompanied by flying reindeer, who also knows whether we are bad or good, are the most familiar examples from western culture.)
There is no bearded Caucasian residing in the clouds, nor does Santa Claus deliver countless gifts by climbing into and out of chimneys all across the planet one night per year. The story of God (for adults) and the story of Santa Claus (for children) are metaphors that teach us that beyond what we as individuals perceive, there is a greater knowing, an ultimately benevolent force that keeps things in balance.
Nature is the benevolent force that purposefully keeps things in balance, and our own conscience and degree of cooperation determines our pleasure or pain. To those who follow their conscience and fulfill their purpose come easeful/heavenly pleasures. To those who fail come painful/hellacious struggles.
Consequences are naturally occurring feedback to guide us in the right direction, rather than rewards or punishments doled out by a judgmental being, somehow apart from ourselves. Regardless, we are taught to fear a super-conscious, Father God while outsmarting Mother Nature and exploiting Her supposedly unconscious/inert Matter.
Quadernity shows us how ECP is both Female and Male, always in harmony and perfect balance. The sooner we make some attitudinal adjustments the better!
The INformable consciousness of the individual entity is derived, in its relative, temporal partiality, from the absolute, omnipresent consciousness of the ineffable One Self, the Atman-Brahman. Human conscious evolution requires us, as INformable entities, to discover the Atman within ourselves and reunify it with the Absolute Self of Brahman. The two rightmost surfaces in the 3D model illustrate the initial division and the ultimate reunification of Atman-Brahman.
I recommend that you not go onto to any of the other label categories until you have found each of the eight Quadernity labels and understand, or intuitively grasp, why they are where they are on the Manipulable Model and how each has a functional fit essential to the minimal dynamical system.
That having been said, please now look just above the model to find a horizontal listing of different sets of labels. When you click on one of the categories listed, its labels will appear on the model. Also, its title will be displayed in a larger font above the listed categories. On this opening model, find the title ‘Quadernity Labels’ above the category bar and below your search engine windows and bookmarks.
It is assumed that you are quite familiar with the vernacular of Quadernity before using this advanced model. Due to spatial limitations, the labels on the 3D model must be brief. In-depth explanations are provided in the body of work preceding this unit.
Should you wish to have a printable cross-reference of the labels in a spreadsheet format, one is provided as both an image file and as a downloadable pdf. Either can be accessed via the drop down menu of this unit, or you may use this link for direct access from here: Spreadsheet of Labels for Cross Reference.
In Conclusion:
Imperative for researchers in any field of study is Quadernity’s universal tool of logic. Quadernity, especially in the form of this 3D Manipulable Model, can serve as a lens through which researchers in numerous fields of study can view their subject anew.
By comparing the various categories provided (which reflect topics discussed within the preceding units of the book) one begins to comprehend how Quadernity can be applied as a tool of logic, regardless of scale or the field of study.
