This programme Originated from the French mathematician Rene Thom in the 1960s, "catastrophe theory" is a. It studies and classifies phenomena characterized by sudden shifts in behaviour made apparent from small changes in circumstances, or events. Catastrophes are between different equilibria, or fixed point attractors. Due to their restricted nature, catastrophes can be classified based on how many control parameters are being simulataneously varied. For example, if there are two controls, then one finds the most common type, called a "cusp" catastrophe. If, however, there are move than five controls, there is no classification, more of a varied non sequenced output of
randomised events.
Catastrophe theory has been applied to a number of different phenomena, such as the stability of boats at sea, bridge collapse, and, with some less convincing success, the fight-or-flight behavior of animals and prison riots, this alone can link
back to our instinctual patterns within ourselves.
Not only this, but are we not taught or rather we perceive our infinite space and time continuum to be littered and speckled with almost giant atoms, with mixed chemical components, constantly at war with each other, ripping apart or creating new life, or visually changing and shaping the galaxy at a rate not even our eyes can keep up with. Molecular structure itself is part of this holy sacrament of circles, ever balancing out the vast expanse of our lives, and the interlinking of other planets. Even planetary orbit is circular. Duh.

The reason why I am going on about this is because are planets not circles? Our eyes? Maybe our own perception is tainted with the "Kill/Create, Negative/Positive..." subliminal influence of the makeup of the galaxy that is continually shaping our perspectives and visual culture. Maybe.
