One object runs through all of it. The regular dodecahedron, its rotation group A5 of order 60, and the binary icosahedral group 2I of order 120. At the largest scale, the Theory of Temporal Spheres takes it as the shape of space: a finite universe of radius R = cτ, tiled as Poincaré dodecahedral space.
From there the same structure is followed down. Through the factorial ladder (n+1)!/2, which runs 1, 3, 12, 60, 360 and underlies base 60; through spacetime treated as a continuous medium; through superconducting order in icosahedral quasicrystals and a layered reading of the genetic code; and through smaller pieces on the arithmetic of base 60, the golden ratio in planetary systems, cosmic topology, E8, and a bronze artifact left behind by Roman surveyors. Each is written so that its claims can be checked.
