"By conventional arithmetic, one triangle plus one triangle equals two triangles. But in association as left helix and right helix, they form a six-edged tetrahedron of four triangular faces. This illustrates an interference of two events impinging at both ends of their actions to give us something very fundamental; a tetrahedron, a system, a division of Universe into inside and outside." Buckminster Fuller, Synergetics: Explorations in the Geometry of Thinking. 4.

The Oedipal triangle is in reality a Oedipal Tetrahedron. The human family is a system, a division of the whole cloth into inside and outside. The process is coded in the double helix of the human genome. Systematic conceptuality is a process, an operation, which divides the whole body into parts; the parts always come in pairs, a bi-sexual parent and a bi-sexual child. The corporate body, the conceptual body, is a polarized body, a body whose integrity depends upon tension, or, disequilibrium. Taboo expresses the experince; taboo means "holy dread".

So I will leave you (who?), this bright cold morning on Harris Creek, in the ambivalence of our social situation.
