The Fibonacci sequence is a infinite sequence of whole numbers which have direct correlation with eachother in all basic mathematical functions.
You asked, so here it goes:
Fibonacci Sequencial formula
A number being equal to (0), then added to one(A), then the sum(b) added to the former number(A). The sum of A + A is equal to the next number in the sequence(1+1=2). Now continue the sequence in this fashion(pre:a+a=b,a+b=c, b+c=d, and so on).
This will result to look like this.(in numerical sequencial order)
1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,610,(987).
This is the beggining of the Fibonacci sequence.
The true mathematical value lies in the x and / values.
1/1
1
2/1
2
3/2
1.5
5/3
1.666
8/5
1.6
13/8
1.625
21/13
1.615
34/21
1.619
55/34
1.617(647)
89/55
1.6181818 <this number is of higher value than any other numer, sequence, equation know to man. This number is the direct relation of mans physical being into numbers!
It is called the phi ratio. Look it up I have to finish my book
Finally, the relation with lateralus is:
1)987
this is the descending time signature
2)the already noted lateral spiral following the first 6 numbers of fibonacci.
3)the lyrical value of the song clearly is opposed to such thinking. But lets take a look at some of tools past influences:
Alex Grey, Bill Hicks(Einstein did prove it! no, really he did), and lastly TIMOTHY LEARY.
Anyone who knows the work of Leary knows that his writings are extremely inspiring, but mindlessly contradictory!
He was a genius, but seemed to have a deep appreciation for point and counterpoint.
As, this is my opinion, the members of tool do also. They have said not to overanalyze, but we just can't resist. Perhaps this is why this is the most posted on song in this forum?
Perhaps it is coincidence, but there is a chance that all things are linked together.
Now, get off your computer and look at Transfigurations. I will not tell you who it is by because there are two versions, and both meet my needs. But one of the people has been aforementioned. Enjoy your newfound enlightenment. But do not abuse it, for when you have nothing left but yourself you become lonely, one tends to create mere appearences of mere appearences to meet his own needs.
