Surreal Composition
Surreal Composition, Oil on Canvas
-The red shape is the ‘pattern shape’ of primes and odd-composite numbers given by equation n=2(2ab+a+b)+1 set in a surreal perspective landscape. The red shape is the resultant of the equation. It is infinite meaning that it could expand in all directions forever. The top sloping downward edge is defined by all the true squares in the Number line.
-The upright central line between the two shades of red is the boundary between positive and negative. The boundary line is represented by a=0 in the equation as if the line was a column, where b equals the numbers gradually increasing from nought at the top descending downward with increasing values as if each was a row responding to the top sloping edge.
-Each value increases according to the following pattern, 6,4,2,4,2,4,6,2…6,4,2,4,2,4,6,2, and so on descending. Each value created is an odd number which is either prime or an odd-composite and is ending with a 1,3,7, or 9. (An odd-composite number of this type is a number created by multiplying two odd-primes together.) To get this pattern and descending values which are increasing, first the values of 2,3, and 5 have to be sieved out. The value of b in the equation therefore increases from 1 to 7, from 7 to 11, from 11 to 13, and so on by employing difference the pattern above 6,4,2….
-The numbers are therefore – 1,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,49,53, 59, 61, 67, 71,73,77,79,83,89,91,97,101,103,107,109,113,119,121,127,131……..and so on. Bold numbers are odd-composites and bold italicised numbers are true squares and odd-composites.
-The underside edge is a special case of boundary between number values for b, -where the number is unique, -or has occurred in the construct value before -i.e. is not unique. I have no equation or formula for this which I can employ to identify or delineate this line other than it exists.
-The other elements of the picture are all to do with the concept of the mobius function.
-The final simple concepts expressed in the picture are that of perspective and distance.
