The Superstring theory from physics, the Platonic solids from geometry, the Octave in music.

"The Superstring theory postulates that all matter in the universe is connected by an infinite number of miniscule, vibrating "strings" of a yet undiscovered energy that pulsate back and forth in spirals from one single point in space.

All these strings vibrate out the exact same distance (forming a perfect sphere), and then vibrate back to the point of origin. There are so many strings that some are bound to cross over at certain "node" points, and all strings that form nodes do so in the exact same place relative to the length of the string. At these node points, the energy would be stronger, because they contain the energy of two strings working together rather than just one. Farther out on the string, other node points also form where the strings intersect, all in the same relative position on the length of the string.

If you connected all these nodes, you would find yourself drawing 3D geometrical objects, but not just any 3D geometrical objects. All lines have to be the same length, with sides the same shape, and each angle the same - all fitting perfectly into a sphere. There are only five known geometrical patterns that fit this criteria called the Platonic or Sacred Solids, which include the Octahedron, Tetrahedron, Cube, Dodecahedron, and Icosahedron.

We know that everything in our existence emits sound according to its own vibrational frequency and we theorize that both sound and light have a so far unknown common ancestor or archetype.

Stars not only shine with light, but they are known to sing......indeed, the very soul of the universe is musical! Trees have also been noted to sing - there are many reports of audible hums coming from certain kinds of trees. If you disturb an object in any way, you will start a vibrational process in that object, and it will start vibrating at it's own unique natural frequency. The natural frequency of any object is known as its resonance. If this frequency or resonance is within the range of human hearing, you will hear a sound being emitted, such as when guitar string is plucked. If the frequency is out of range, you will be oblivious to the sound, even though there is indeed sound being produced.

We have the 5 platonic solids, which as we have seen are actually vibrational crystals. Since everything in the universe is vibrating, there must be some relation between these solids and the musical scale. We can add a sphere to each side of the platonic solids to make 7, but where do we get the 8th shape to correspond to the octave? Basically all we have to do is use the Icosahedron twice. It is the logical choice because all the other shapes can be derived from it. It is simply vibrating at a higher frequency on the right side. So now we start seeing some order in all this, as we have matched up two of the important vibrational qualities of our existence - sound (resonance) and form (geometry).

Now, light vibrates too - and when it does it produces the different colors of the spectrum, as we can easily see by looking at a rainbow. There are seven basic colors in the rainbow - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Matching these with the octave is easy - just add red at a higher vibrational rate to the end of the color sequence. Therefore, if singing the octave (do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do), you could match the colors in the rainbow - C=do=red, D=re=orange, E=mi=yellow, F=fa=green, G=so=blue, A=la=indigo, B=ti=violet, C=do=red.

Therefore, in our 3D universe, we are singing an E tone (or faster harmonics of E), and our basic structure is a yellow (or harmonic variation of yellow) octahedra. This is our reality in its most basic vibrational form."
