524.01
We experience events and no-events. Ergo, we invent novent. Novents characterize the finite but nonsensorial remote masses’ interattraction, i.e., the gravitational continuum.
524.02
Seeming “space” is the absence of energy events. The word space as a noun misleadingly implies properties that are altogether lacking.
524.03
All of our experiences are periodically terminated: the termination characterizes both the physical and the metaphysical aspects of our observing faculties and the observed phenomena. There are no experimentally known continuums. Physics has found no “solids.” We have only awake or asleep——experience or nonexperience — occurrence durations and nonoccurrence intervals; either discrete and unique packages of energy or thought, on the one hand, or of nonenergy or nonthought, on the other hand. Each and all of these are as uniquely differentiable, and as separable, from one another as are the individual stars of the Milky Way.
524.04
The nonevent continuum is the novent. The novent continuum permeates the finitely populated withinness and comprises the finite novent withoutness. Novent is the finite but nonsensorial continuum. (See Sec. 905.20.)
524.10 In and Out
524.101
There are no specific directions or localities in Universe that may be opposingly designated as up or down. In their place, we must use the words out and in. We move in toward various individual energy-event concentrations, or we move out from them. But the words in and out are not mirror-image opposites. In is a specific direction toward any one local individual system of Universe. Out is not a direction; out is nondirectional because it is anydirectional.
524.11
You are always in Universe. You cannot get out of Universe. All the word out means is that you are not inside a system. You can only get out of systems.
524.12
In designates individual experience foci. Foci are in, because focusable, but always, as entropy shows, temporary. Relationships exist between the ins because they are definable. Out is common to all; out is timeless; out is not really packaged.
524.13
In is discrete; out is general. The ins are discontinuous; the outs are continuous. Out is nothingness, i.e., nonexperience. Only the nonexperience nothingness constitutes continuum.
524.14
In is temporal; out is eternal. Ins are knowable; outs are unknowable. In is individually, uniquely identifiable; out, though total, inherently integral, and finite, is nonidentifiable. In is individually, uniquely directional; out is any, all, and no direction. Out is all directions; even when temporarily inward toward center, it passes beyond the center to eventual outness.
524.20 Areas: Faces
524.21
It is experimentally demonstrable that an apparent “plane” is a “surface” area of some structural system. There are no experimentally demonstrable continuums. All that has been found is discontinuity, as in star constellations or atomic nuclear arrays. Areas are discontinuous by constructional definition. Areas, as system “faces,” are inherently empty of actions or events, and therefore are not “surfaces.”
524.30 Openings
524.31
There are no surfaces. Therefore, there are no areas. So Euler’s topological aspects have to be altered to read: “Lines” = trajectories; “vertexes” = crossings; and “areas” = openings, i.e., where there are no trajectories or crossings.
524.32
When three or more “lines,” “vectors,” or trajectories each cross two others, we have an opening. Our definition of an opening is that it is surrounded, i.e., framed, by trajectories.
524.33
Every trajectory in a system will have to have at least two crossings. These are always as viewed, because the lines could be at different levels from other points of observation.
