As the numeric expression of these two corner ratios shows, these two sectors </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">c </span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">and </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">d </span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">are reciprocal in terms of their numbers (quotients) and tone-values; thus, the number groups of these sectors follow the same law of reciprocity as the simple linear partial-tone series. Furthermore, we see two more diagonals, drawn as dotted and dashed lines. The first (from </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">b </span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">to </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">a</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">) joins together only generator-tones </span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">n</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">/</span><span style="vertical-align: sub;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">n</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">; we call this the “generator-tone diagonal.” The entire diagram is divided into two halves by these diagonals: an upper right half with only ratios greater than 1, and a lower left half with only ratios smaller than 1. These two halves are also in exact reciprocity in terms of both number and value. The second dashed diagonal from </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">c </span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">to </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">d </span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">joins the ratios of greatest upwards and downwards expansion; since there are only second powers of the whole number series and its reciprocals in numeric terms here, we call it the “diagonal of 2</span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">nd</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> powers,” or of “directional powers.” The diagram is divided by this second diagonal into two halves of identical ratios, and therefore of the same content. These halves, however, are reversed like mirror images. These two diagonals embody, geometrically, the most extreme opposites contained in the diagram: the generator-tone diagonals, the static element of the self-contained generator-tones; the diagonal of 2</span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">nd</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> powers, the dynamic element of exceptional vitality. Later, we will further discuss the laws and norms of this complete partial-tone diagram. Seen from outside, this complete, open “P” diagram (or however one wishes to describe it) has great similarity to a 4-fold combination of our beginning diagram. But it is not a “combination model”; instead it is a simple further development of the “P” according to the laws lying immanent within it. To investigate whether, and how far, this complete P-diagram can be varied, permuted, and combined, would require far more space than this textbook allows. This is left for the reader to work out on his own initiative. In the section on “tone-space” (§37), we will construct the complete “P” spatially; the reader who enjoys drawing will be able to exercise his skills there!</span></p> <p style="text-align: left;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">§35a.

The two dimensions in which this dialectic takes place are time (seconds) and space (units of distance). It is interesting that from the point of view of this physical law, there is an even closer relationship to our partial-tone coordinates than that of perspective and equidistance. If we observe the numeric terms in the haptic illustration of the “P” not arithmetically, i.e. not from the simple viewpoint of the number progression, but geometrically, i.e. from the viewpoint of true size, then calculating with vibration-numbers and string lengths yields the following two basal series:</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;" dir="ltr"><img alt="" src="../kayser2/imagelibrary/Gann/1.jpg" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 10pt;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">Figure 301</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> Here, with the purely geometric observation of the number sizes, within the conjugated overtone and undertone series, we see the perspective and equidistant elements appear together. The dialectic mentioned above, then, appears within the number sizes, whereby the observation of the tone-values shows that the perspective side reveals a minor impulse under temporal observation and a major impulse under spatial observation. For the equidistant side, it is reversed. Thus the situation is exactly the same as for the law of gravity: space and time are in a constant perspective-equidistant relationship. Only in the acoustic domain, this relationship is mutual (reciprocal) and can reverse itself depending on whether we calculate with vibration-numbers or string lengths. In the physical domain, on the other hand, it is one-sided, since the measure of time always remains equidistant and the measure of space always remains perspective.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> One can now derive this law of falling bodies directly from our completed partial-tone diagram (Fig. 300, sector </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">c</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">), as shown in Fig. 302.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;" dir="ltr"><img alt="" src="../kayser2/imagelibrary/Gann/2.jpg" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 10pt;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">Figure 302</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> As one can see, the temporal element of the seconds of falling is equal to the equidistance of the vibration-numbers </span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">1</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">/</span><span style="vertical-align: sub;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">1</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> </span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">2</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">/</span><span style="vertical-align: sub;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">1</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> </span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">3</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">/</span><span style="vertical-align: sub;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">1</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> ... while the spatial element of the intervals of falling is congruent with the perspective of the vibration-numbers of the diagonal of 2</span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">nd</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> powers.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> However, regarding this example of free fall, we are interested in something fundamental that gives rise to a deeper observation.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> It is known and acknowledged that this Galilean law of falling bodies is a preliminary step on the way to Newton's law of gravity. In it lies the first quantitative-</span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">dynamic</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> law, which precisely defines a process of movement, in contrast to or in completion of the first (alleged) quantitative-</span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">static</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> law of the precise Pythagorean tracing of a perception (tone ratio) to a quantitative numeric relationship. According to common opinion, Galileo found his law of falling bodies through of experimental observations, and it is given in almost all textbooks as the paradigm of the so-called inductive method of modern science. In contrast to this, Hugo Dingler (</span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">Der Zusammenbruch der Wissenschaft und der Primat der Philosophie</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">, 2</span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">nd</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> ed., 1931, p. 125 ff.) tells us persuasively that without previous prototypical ideas, i.e. without the image-concepts already existing </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">a priori</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> in his psyche, Galileo would not have been able to discover his law of falling bodies-the evidence for this condition comes from a letter from Galileo's student Toricelli (op. cit., p. 196) found by H. Wieleitner. To prove this psychic </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">a priori</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> quality of all great discoveries is now the main task of Dingler's work, and likewise his resulting thesis that the decadence and “breakdown” of modern science is due to the loss of the creative image-concept, to the one-sided relocation of all scientific knowledge to induction, and to the mere questioning of experiments-the inevitable evil of which is the leveling and uniformity, the vapidity and worthlessness of the modern mode of scientific thought. Dingler explains this </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">a priori</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> existence of creative law concepts by means of a “happy arrangement of the empirical concepts,” thus with a certain minimum intellectual measure of energy, a looking inward, “driven by its unconscious rhythm.”</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> We can agree with all this from our harmonic viewpoint, and can follow along with Dingler up to this point. But now the deciding question emerges: what is the “happy arrangement of the empirical concepts” and the driving of “unconscious rhythm”-how should we explain these very general and noncommittal terms?</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> Here, harmonics can offer further assistance. Let us consider that the idea of expansion and contraction held by Newton and Jakob Böhme (see §19b) is present </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">in nuce</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> in the primary reciprocal partial-tone series; further, consider the image-concepts of the most varied disciplines, the religious symbols, etc. in our partial-tone diagram, and added to this the presence of Galileo's law of falling bodies in a sector of the open “P” diagram; and above all, let us remain aware that all the harmonic tone-developments correspond to inner forms of our psyches, since in the end they can be controlled by means of psychical criteria-then we will grasp how it is possible that laws of nature are present within us as psychic image-concepts prior to their empirical discovery. The “happy arrangement of empirical concepts” can thus be traced to a psychical tectonics whose forms we are able to elicit in the harmonic prototypes (theorems and value-forms) in a scientifically exact and unobjectionable way. But since the law of harmonic tone-development is also manifested in nature, outside of humans, in the overtone series, on which the harmonic partial-tone diagrams are built, an explanation is given </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">vice versa</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> for how the leap of the psychical into the natural is possible, and how one should imagine that psychical prototypes can once again be discovered in natural phenomena. Here the Kantian problem of synthetic apperception obtains a hitherto unknown solution.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> But yet another point appears to me to have considerable significance in the harmonic analysis of the law of falling bodies: the element of perspective and equidistance, expressed in spatial length and in time. As initially remarked above, in quantitative-geometric observation, space and time are reciprocal to each other in two different forms: a uniform, equidistant form and a perspectively shortening form. One might well say that the “perspective” of the spatial lengths of the law of falling bodies does not shorten, but lengthens, and therefore is not “extroverted” but “introverted” (see §19a.2). But what is important here is the element of perspective in itself. Given the reciprocal correspondence of the harmonic concept of time-space upon the background of a psychical major-minor world, which is again aligned perspectively and equidistantly, the meeting of time and space in the law of falling bodies can give rise to meaningful results under the same formal auspices of perspective and equidistance that occurred with those of harmonic space-time (see §7, §16.2).</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> To summarize: through the Galilean law of falling bodies, whose harmonics we have shown here, and through Kepler's laws, the third of which has prototypical harmonic ideas and analyses to thank for its existence-as the most important preliminary steps for Newton's law of gravitation, whose inner nature of expansion and contraction agrees with fundamental harmonic concepts in any case-we see the law of gravitation, which governs almost all exact sciences, appearing on an unequivocal harmonic background. This law has thereby found a psychical anchoring; it is no longer an abstraction that does not affect us inwardly, but instead the expression of a psychical structure of the universe.</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> </span></p> <p style="text-align: left;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">§35.2.

The concept of the “gesture” outlined here can also be examined from the dynamic side (Fig. 300). For this, we imagine ourselves as the moving agent, as an expression of the “will,” and thus perceive something like the following.

Along the way, our perception constantly changes between strength and weakness, between the ambivalence of a major and minor world. The human, and every being-value-a “cue-ball between Heaven and Hell”-is symbolized, if anywhere, by this harmonic diagram, if we include “good and evil” in the layman's sense in the principle of polarity. Later (§53.4, §53.8, §54.7), we will see that we are not allowed to do that; that with this “inclusion” of the ethical in the familiar dualism we make a huge, fatal mistake; and that harmonics, with its offering of the selection principle and the disruption factor arrives at fundamentally different solutions. Major and minor, with their characteristic equidistant and perspective forms-which can metamorphose into one another with the shifting of frequencies (time) to string lengths (space)-are polarities like light and darkness, far and near, etc. (see §23), but </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">not</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> like “good and evil.” This “polarity,” if indeed it should be called that, arises from completely different backgrounds, and this confusion has led the layman's philosophical treatment of ethical problems down a cul-de-sac.</span></p> <p style="text-align: left;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">§35.2b</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> The strange connection of advancing and delaying elements in the complete P-diagram, the peculiar “static dynamic” or “dynamic stasis” of its content, demands that we subject it to a formally symbolic examination. For this, we choose the axes of coordinates contained within it, which we attempt to analyze under the term of a “symbolism of the cross.” If we let this cross stand vertically and horizontally (Fig. 303), then “above” and “below” are in the same major-minor polarity as “left” and “right”: above and right in major, below and left in minor. The upper right sector </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">c</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">, bounded by the upper right arm of the cross, tends towards “light” and “height” and is reciprocal to the lower left sector </span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">d</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">, which symbolizes depth and darkness. Both are centered by the dynamic of the diagonal of the 2</span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">nd</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> powers. The upper left sector (</span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">b</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">) and lower right sector (</span><span style="font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">a</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">) are mirror images of one another, symbolizing the symmetry of the world, and are centered by the stasis of the generator-tone line.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> We find a completely different physiognomy when we position the cross of the axes on a slant (Fig. 304). Here, the world of light is obviously contained in the upper sector and the two upper halves of the left and right sector (above the generator-tone diagonal, which is level here), the world of darkness in the lower sector and the two lower halves of the right and left sector, whereby the diagonal of the 2</span><span style="vertical-align: super;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">nd</span><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> powers (perpendicular here) reaches the extreme peaks of light and darkness, height and depth, attained in index 6 of this diagram. “Right and left” here have their actual significance as mirror-image equal symmetries.

The first is “realistic” in a certain sense (the “bad thief” to the left, the “good” to the right); the other, the “Greek” cross, expresses, in the localization of its psychic tendencies, that which it (like the first cross) is supposed to symbolize-the “Christ”-in a simpler, more spiritual way: heavenly and earthly realms are arranged in the directions of up and down, and right and left are in reconciled equality. Through this the bad thief also motions towards reconciliation. The uppermost sector (“ascended into Heaven”) sounds out in pure, intersecting major chords, the lowermost sector (“descended into Hell”) in pure minor chords.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" dir="ltr"><span lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US"> We will return later (§40) to the attempt at a harmonic symbolism of the cross, this time as a morphological model, on the occasion of the chordal analysis of the “P”.</span></p> <p style="text-align: left;" dir="ltr"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-US">§35b.
