THE FORM - The simplest 2D sign for the active human figure is derived from the 5 pointed star with a line for the head/trunk, two arms and two legs. The 7 limbed figure is a 3D equivalent, you see a 5 pointed figure gesturing at every face.

THE LINE - A single line travels twice through a series of 7 cross junctions in a regular sequence. Any regular three dimensional figure with seven faces or seven points is determinedly asymmetric. I discovered this when constructing the figure in the drawing. The figure always turned one of its junctions inside out.

This unusual site translates common sentences using genetic code to specify letters of the alphabet instead of coding for proteins. At 10,000 visits since 1998, it must be one of the least visited sites ever. 1,400 hits a month on a small site would account for just the page maker on a regularly updated site. An almost untouched island in cyberspace.

It is not that the 'answer' lies in nonlinearity. Nonlinearity and it's counterpoint, hierarchy, are both needed to understand this universe. Nor is nonlinearity mutually exclusive to linearity, or hierarchy and structure. The weather contains nonlinear elements but each step in a storm (e.g. the increase of moisture in the air) is linear. If only the linear elements are considered, the overall sense of the storm is missed. If only the nonlinear aspects are attended to, the sequential structure is missed.
