GEOMETRIC BEHAVIORISM
“I’m down” or “I’ve hit rock bottom and there is nowhere to go but up” or I’m caught in a “downward spiral” or “free fall”. Or struggling and about to “crash back to Earth”. I’m feeling “unsteady”, “unstable” or “upset”. These are statements that seem to confirm that a relationship may exist between down and something else.
And when we’re “standing tall”, are “up” or “upbeat”, “upright”, something is “uplifting” or we “rise to the occasion” or feel that everything is “in sync”, we’re expressing feelings and states of mind that are positive.
Feeling depressed may also be related to or talked about in the same terms. The language of the depressed might give us a hint of something that we have not been considering. Being caught in a downward spiral, feeling low or depressed or pressured could indicate being down may indicate something that we are not aware of.
Down is a concept that only exists because of gravity. Could understanding the need to organize and use motion effectively improve our understanding of what depression is and how to effectively help the depressed?
Depression may be the inability to take a thought and then use motion to successfully implement the thought. The struggle creates stress, the stress when not dealt with causes the downward spiral and makes us feel like the burden we're carrying is unbearable. And as the burden gets heavier we sink a little lower. There may be new more effective ways of lightening the load.
Positive and negative are mathematical terms. Degree expresses the extent of positional relationships relative to what was and what is. How low or how high requires a scale of measurement. And the vocabulary we use to use to express our emotional state may reflect a deeper, more thorough understanding of our relationship “to Everything”. One that we may not fully understand.
Is there a mathematical way of understanding why we do what we do? When this happens, that happens, and if our actions and responses to stress are consistent, there has to be biological factors that create that consistency. Consistent factors can be measured and a mathematical explanation may be possible. There may be a reason we behave the way we do….and we are not loonie or crazy, but just being who we are in the moment.
This diagram illustrates the ideas we’ve incorporated into a new philosophy that could explain most aspects of human behavior.

Contained within the human biological systems are built-in responses to any controlled or unexpected environmental changes. The effectiveness of the responses are reflected in the levels of “tension” caused by stress factors.
All relationships within the system can be measured and explained using geometric progressions. If this happens…that happens….and what happens can be measured….and the degree of response (M) reflects the intensity of the level of stress (E).”
Hitting bottom….or being or feeling ”high” represents a cognitive expression of how effectively the biological us is functioning relative to change or stress. The degree of change ( M / E = me ) is as our primary point of reference to Mother Earth o down. The point of contact allows all living matter to establish a functional geometrical relationship to other objects in space. It is the relationship between “0’ (nothing is happening) and how we experience any change that drives our responses.
Down is where we measure everything from and how we experience and perceive down is reflected in how accurately or inaccurately we perceive and interact with time and space.
The stricture or theoretical triangle may not have developed a fear of falling, but the same forces that created the human fear of falling exists in the world of architecture. Gravity, by just being, set the parameters for how the building was designed and functions. The Theory of Everything applied. Are we, or are we not, part of Everything?
