Note: The hpersphere is a geometreal entity in which its vacuum-void centroidis constantly exchanging places with its totally penetrable peripheral surface. This means that while its extension is invariant-being neither infinite nor infintesinmal its existence vacillates periodically between being and non being. The Unity of thephysical and the metaphysical: The Pataphysical
