History:
I created this painting during the early phases of reading and contemplating George Spencer-Brown's book “Laws of Form”. I chose the symbol of the pyramid because of experimenting with real pyramids, at the time (not because of any secret symbolism). The influence of Taoist ideas about Yin and Yang is also evident: At the time I was trying to extend Brown's logic calculus to "left-handed amd right-handed truth values". (I ended up with unlimited multiple truth values, instead...) The original oil painting was sold (to an unknown client) at a One-Man Exhibition in “New thought gallery” (Athens, Greece). This poor-quality slide, taken with a cheap instamatic camera and recently scanned into a 'jpeg' image, is all that remains today. |

Semantics:
The blue pyramid inside the painting, as well as the light circular patterns (on the left and right sides of the Eye) depict G. S. Brown’s “Axioms of the Primary Arithmetic”:
“1 # 1 = 0”, “1 , 1 = 1” (or to the Boolean forms: “1 xor 1 = 0”, “1 or 1 = 1”). My logic research extends G. S. Brown's "Laws of Form" to Multiple Form Logic |
