Spiraling Symmetry

I've been working on the construction of a mechanical prototype of this formation, to try it out in water and see if it would spiral forward. But the 'step and repeat' calculation of each rotator kept bugging me; "what is the factor to make it go round?" Turns out it much easier than I first thought, for each curve (180°), build up out of 8 rotors, this gives the rise to a connector-part with a corner of 22.5°. The same connector can be used everywhere, the only thing that needs to change is, give it a turn at the 4 corners (90° shift of direction). The cool thing is that for the whole composition the rotator shift doesn't play a role due to symmetry. So my guess would be there is at a point a 90° shift, a 'click' happens and the flow can keep on spiraling naturally.

Photoelectric Effect

In between atom layers (orbits) a wave caused by an in falling particle is bent, pushed and pulled in 4 directions forming an 8. On our planet water waves are pulled back towards earth because of gravity, at an atomic level waves are governed by the forces of the orbits generated by the rotation of the core moving within the medium.

An Assumption On the Origin of Light & Gravity

I think that is clear that this formation (8) is weightless thanks to it's symmetry and thus can be Light. Anything else isn't fluent and has mass (resistance when moving through compressed aether) thus lacking the ability to move (screwing motion) at the constant speed of light, and maintaining it's composition. By spinning it generates waves (high or low frequencies) that are perpendicular (((((8((((( thus acting as a particle and a wave at the same time. The perpendicular screwing motion generates a downwards push and can be considered as a gravitational force, constant series of emitted (8)'s generate a constant gravitational pull/push towards their origin: Gravity.

Getting something going

Rotating particles are fired into space, they spiral up, curving back to there starting point like a roulette and complete a full circle. Once the circle is completed the circle 'snaps off' and is 'launched' into space.

In the (8) ball concept the circle is a closed 8-circuit, that generates a sphere by rotation:

The rotating behavior would be as described in the topic below: From a Soliton to an (8)-ball.

Next the object would spin and swim through a 'ball pit', making the balls turn and shift place, causing waves in the bath. A programmed group of boid-particles taking the correct curve-trajectory and having the right physical properties to push the balls in the bath aside would be the way to go. A BGE/particles/boids/physics simulation might generate the correct automatism, to be continued.
