This... has actually happened to me a few times. It's interesting but quite uncomfortable.

    “Beyond the confines of language”

    They’re called fractals.

    Almost all of these can be communicated via the language of recurrence relations.

    There’s some hyperbolic geometry and circle packing in there too.

    Edit: actually the bell curves and circle backing can be expressed as recurrence relations too.

    The bell curve is an infinite sum of binomial coefficients.

    The circle packing dots can be represented uniquely by which dots they’re adjacent to. They have 3 way symmetry, and clear generations, so you can order and index the dots entirely based on the initial 3 (left as an exercise to the reader). So this is also just a more complex piece wise recurrence rule.

    ...that hit way too close to home. I may be losing my mind :3

    When I hung out with the Clintons and Joe Biden, they gave me some Adrenochrome and boy howdy let’s just say I’ve really opened my third leg.

    Well fuck. Now I'm cursed to live out the mathematical perfection of infinite iterative repetition. Stupid pineal gland.

    Stimulation of the pineal gland is commonly accomplished through the third eye.

    what does the pineal gland have to do with this?
