Introduction

This  provides examples of metaphorical use of simple geometrical forms in support of individual or collective identity. This forms part of a more general discussion, where relevant references are located (Way Round Cognitive Ground Zero and Pointlessness: embodying the geometry of fundamental cognitive dynamics, 2012; see alternative table of contents).

The argument here also explores how the forms can then be used as the basis for the creation of a "world" -- enabling a "worldview" -- with which patterns of ownership and possession may be associated. Also considered is on how transformations in geometrical forms enable changing understanding of the dynamics of identity which may be variously associated with such forms. This is contrasted with understandings of identity understood through the dynamics of resonance, rather than through static forms, whether or not they are subject to transformations.

The following table indicates the forms considered here, as well as other consideration of how they condition comprehension, presented separately (Experience of Cognitive Implication in Fundamental Geometry: unexamined metaphoric framing of strategic discourse, 2012).

Further consideration is given in the main paper to the dynamic framing of identity within a torus in relation to those above.
