One dividing into two, the simple
transformation by which all of life's beauty manifests, reflects itself in the subtle geometry of The Mitosis Medallion. In it, the largest square contained by a semi-circle divides it's area one-into-two forming two, new squares from the original. The two new squares, like the original from which they derived, are also (together) the largest two squares capable of occupying the original's semi-circle. |

These simple proportions contain all of
the necessary data for both the cross-section and face triangles of the Great Pyramid of Giza in addition to being an abundant generator of the Divine Proportion, also known as the Golden Mean and phi ratio. |

In The Geometry of Form the schematics
of this particular expression of MITOSIS parallels the geometric equivalent of the hydrogen atom, and is clearly seen to be intimately related to the maximum omni- symmetrical distortion of a volume unit. |
