See also my “make your own rules” post from this year to see how I work with this construct in an applied way. Yes, it’s a very inside-my-own-head piece of INTP/J nerdery but I think it’s not too opaque if you’ve relatively close to my headspace https://www.ribbonfarm.com/2018/02/15/make-your-own-rules/ …
Fun fact #1: the triangular construct can itself be plotted inside the triangle. I think it is close to the center, somewhere along the blue edge.

Fun fact #2: this thread itself can be mapped to the triangle. It wanders in and out past the green edge, getting deeper in for more crackpot tweets, further out for points that make sense from external frames of reference.

Fun fact #3, the “breakthrough” idea here (for a poiesis-praxis parameter) is a neat leap into the triangle across the red edge.

For all you mysticism nerds, “enlightenment” is obviously at the exact center where time stops (pure aion), marked by thoughts like “that thou art” or “the rock has Buddha nature” just next to it. The exact center = non-thought.

A logical thought curve will be continuous. An intuitive one will jump around. An “Aha!” will be a big discontinuous jump inward (more poiesis). An “UnAha!” (falsification) will be a big discontinuous jump outward. Here’s an old post on UnAha! experiences:https://www.ribbonfarm.com/2008/03/05/unaha/ …

A theory-to-practice thought trail will be an arrow heading out. An example-to-generalization will head the other way. Triangle contours = consistent time perception. Going mad is a terminal inward spiral. Rejoining humanity from the depths of madness is an outward spiral.

Anyhow, there you go. I may write this all up as a post, but if not this thread is it. This might interest
