Re: New Lateralus Info...

The reason this stuff is so awesome is because it is in everything. You could probably find the golden ratio in a Neil Young song if you looked at it from the right angle. Lateralus is strange because it is apparent on so many levels, but in art class I remember exploiting basic patterns to no end. This is relevant because that's kind of what Lateralus is doing, but it's not just a value scale from black to white. It's...well, what it is, an incredible song full of meaningful coincidences. I guess you could say it is exploiting the basic patterns of the matrix or reality or somehting like that. It's a spiral infinitely inwards and outwards, but beyond that it's up to you. You are an element of the fractal matrix and you can effect the whole through your "ripples". Remember, it's just a bunch of spheres, full of emptiness, bouncing around and into one another.
