The genius of the Social Process Triangles is in the analysis of the
dynamics of any societal grouping...not necessarily in the drawing of
the fractal - as depicted in Sierpinski's insight.
Whether we could have drawn the dynamics in other configurations, I
don't know...but the content that got put in those triangles during
the spring and summer of 71 go far beyond any geometric drawing in
1915...or any other time.
Yes, I'd love to hear Jon Jenkins comments on this...
