The easier road to mastery in Mathematics
Less hand waving is a good thing
The Celestial Geometry of the Sun, Moon and Stars created the seasons. That spawned agriculture and was our first mathematics, followed by earth bound Geometry, measuring the size of your land; they all grew up alongside Arithmetic, counting bushels of your grain. All three have spawned major advancements in the human condition. And still are.
Mathematics has always been considered "hard," a hurdle that most people avoid. After all, when you make that left hand turn, do you really need to measure and calculate? Many of us really don't focus on anything more "mathy" than Taxes. And that makes calculations even more of a bummer. We live in a world dominated by gravity, and that has shaped ourselves into 2 1/2 Dimension beings, that live in a world of masonary.
And the presentation of Math: the bewildering and often inconsistant symbols; the waving hands of the instructors. These are certain turn-offs for learners to actually do the homework. They are not getting the "learning" of the lesson. No wonder the creative side of Geometry is hidden behind Calculus, with it's divs, grads and curls. And the average person is pretty much OK with 30, 60, 90 and 45 degrees.
Space struts is an end run around the mental complexities of our most verifyable math: Geometry. With Space Struts, if the angles are right, it just fits. And the choice of the only two fixed size parts, the Golden Gnomon and Golden Triangle makes it all simple to build, simple to conceptualize, and simple to expand upon.
When a basic, physical knowledge of the the Golden 3D Geometry of Space Struts is combined with the presentation of the concepts of Geometric Algebra, a new, super easy to gain mathematical mastery is available to a wider audience.
And that wider audience will have the skills to provide new options and advancements in the human condition.
