Servant/Project Idea Thread, "The Womb"

[Tabris]

You can simply ask someone else to write NP for u as long as you give them what it should do

Hmmm. Interesting.

[DelRey]

Are there examples of something that can be described "geometric magecraft"?
Some stuff around forms?
I take canon and fanmade

Kiwi's Alter Ego Euclid had something along those lines, I believe.

[DelRey]

Not really touching the aspect of geometry except that euclid can calc fast

[Random]

Wolff is the guy I'm most likely to touch in that sphere, honestly. He's a super interesting guy and you can actually write him in a way that the philosophy can inform his character first and his abilities second. But that's probably for when I have less on my plate.

Imaginary Numbers is technically geometry for assholes.

[NINE-lives]

You did touch on Leibniz and his binary numbers earlier. Maybe you could do a Leibniz that’s focused on his achievements in mathematics and computation first and his philosophy second. You could even use the I Ching as a noble phantasm based on his interest in it.

i feel called out
while looking into it i found what is actually behind the sacred geometry with the seed, flower, fruit and egg of life.
circle is the soul, square is matter, triangle the soul. Islamic geometry may be an interesting topic to explore for magecraft.
But these are patterns and I want 3D shapes, even if these spiritualists say the 5 platonic shapes can be found inside the flower of life

ey NINE, help out. philosophy and weird ideas from it are your area. ideas on geometric stuff?

[HumanComplex]

If geometric ideas are what you want, I've got two.

The first one would basically be the creation of 3d objects by layering and folding 2d imaginary shapes instead of 3d objects existing by itself in this reality, in order to achieve something in between. You can impose properties of flatness and such onto our world, and take it from there. I'm actually using this for another project of mine, but progress have stalled so I'm leaving it here for now.

The second one would be instead of using formulas to calculate a situation, you use graphs to map it out. This one is weird because you still technically need a formula to graph it out in the first place, but maybe there's something that could happen in-between the process?

[DelRey]

i like the first idea but it is incompatible with what i wish to touch on.
Im looking for something physical. mystery derived from the shape of cubes and other forms

Picasso?

I don’t really have a solid idea on what a mystery of geometry would really look like, since this is math we’re talking about. I won’t pretend I have an authority on geometry besides rudimentary knowledge, but the closest thing I can think of would be spherical and hyperbolic geometry. You can probably form some kind of magecraft surrounding them, since they violate Euclidian’s fifth postulate.

Maybe transform the surrounding area would be more in line with spherical and hyperbolic geometry?

isn't that just the Pythagorean Mysteries

[DelRey]

huh, cant think of something either. perhaps i just scrap that idea for this application i am looking for.

[Random]

If in doubt, just say that the family has their own Mysteries, like the Caesarmund.

[DelRey]

eh, nah. I thought it can be just some other small application of the overarching magecraft i currently concentrate on.
But I rather find other concepts to integrate than be overzealous and create my own new thing there.

pythagorean shape rotators in shambles

[DelRey]

pls tell me more because I feel like it sparked an idea.

Musica universalis sounds like an excellent opportunity for some astromancy and musical magecraft fuckery.

[DelRey]

uugggh you make me read?
i was interested in the pythagorean shape rotator because...wtf is that
