Geometry is Relationship
From Internal Contrast to External Form
These are the original theories of James Allen, developed as part of Pattern Field Theory.
Before Shape, There Was Comparison
In Pattern Field Theory, geometry is not the study of shape—it is the study of relationships. Before any shape could emerge, internal comparison had to occur. A line is not an object; it is a decision between two positions. A triangle is not an aesthetic—it is the resolution of three internal tensions.
Geometry Emerges From Pattern Recognition
When the original field began comparing internal features, it discovered ratio, angle, curvature, and directional bias. These became the foundations of form. Geometry is the structured language of those differences—a measurable framework for relationship.
Every Line Is a Relationship
In this context, a line is not a stroke across space—it is a relational vector between two points. Triangles, circles, and polygons are not static diagrams; they are stable states of interactive comparison between multiple internal reference points.
Form Is Structural Agreement
A geometric form is a stable outcome of internal constraint. The field enters a state of balance by maintaining specific ratios and distances. Pattern Field Theory describes this as the emergence of coherent resonance: geometry as the agreement of interacting pattern logic.
