Line of Orientation

Level One | The Lines

Connecting the •dots•

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, but only for a beginning.

It takes an astrophysicist to build a 3D engine just for a 2D display on a monitor.

 

- A dash is a line between two •dots•
- A dash is the beginning to a #horizon
- A dash is also a -baseline-


Combinations with •dots• and -dashes- enumerate systems, like the Morse code alphabet,

musical score notations, and astronomical navigation with logical assemblies.

S.O.S.Morse Code

You can download this UWP APP from Microsoft Store to generate your own Morse Code

also called Code Word (CW).

The following text about Pythagoras is generated with Open AI Chat GPT.

"Pythagoras played a major key role in the evolved tone scale. He was the first to propose that the pitch of a note was in direct proportion to the length of the string that produced it. He also believed that the intervals between notes were in direct proportion to the lengths of the strings that produced them. This theory became the foundation for the modern-day musical scale."
