In the previous episodes we’ve thought in detail about the dot, and thus also about the round shape. In this exercise, we go a step further by considering what can fit into a circle. There’s a square in a circle. If we connect the four outermost poles within the circle with lines of equal length, it creates a square. You know the sketches of Leonardo da Vinci, in which he draws the Vitruvian man in a circle and forms a square in the circle. With this Vitruvian man, the center of the circle is exactly where the navel is. Contrary, the center of the square is formed by the sexual organs of the Vitruvian man. In the translated meaning this signifies that the square is earthbound, because at its center is the procreation.
