A single 2x2 grid showing active pattern flow. Unlike previous static diagrams, this one captures movement: probability fields swirling at boundaries, elements finding natural paths, the whole system alive with possibility. Key points of recognition marked: "texture changes", "resistance eases", "possibility gathers". The effect should be like a snapshot of a living system caught mid-dance
A 2x2 grid diagram with permeable internal borders (gaps in center of shared lines). From lower left clockwise: Known (solid blue), Knowable (blue/pink stripes), Unknown (solid pink), Knowable (blue/pink stripes). Each internal border contains a central gap enabling flow between adjacent spaces. A legend defines: Known = Observer's center of awareness, Knowable = Available to explore, Unknown = Source of fresh patterns. The gaps in borders emphasize how territories are distinct but inseparable, enabling natural flow while maintaining healthy relationship.
A variation on "Pattern Development Cycle" showing the complete water cycle as metaphor. Circle divided into four quadrants, each showing a distinct phase transition: ice→water→vapor→condensation→ice. Each transition point labeled with both physical state change and corresponding territory transition (e.g., "crystallizing (Knowable→Known)"). Arrows between states suggest continuous, cyclic movement.
Three concentric ring diagrams arranged horizontally showing pattern evolution. Labeled 1, 2, 3: First shows small Known nucleus with thick Knowable membrane and vast Unknown. Second shows expanded Known, proportional Knowable membrane, moderate Unknown. Third shows large Known with thin Knowable membrane and minimal Unknown.
A single 2x2 grid showing three distinct states of organization: Known contains a simple square in its center, Knowable holds four dots arranged in square formation, and Unknown contains a sparse, chaotic arrangement of more than four dots. Bidirectional arrows through the gaps between quadrants show possible movement paths. All elements drawn with same line weight to emphasize equal validity of all states and transitions.
Three 2x2 grids arranged horizontally, showing pattern recognition in progress. Grid 1: Three heavy dots arranged in a triangle, all in Unknown (pink), showing pattern gathering before emergence. Grid 2: Same triangle pattern with dots distributed - one in Unknown (pink), one in Knowable (striped), one in Known (blue), showing active development. Grid 3: All three dots reunited in triangle formation in Known (blue), showing pattern fully established. Each grid maintains permeable borders between territories.
Concentric circular diagram showing cellular pattern of territory support. Center shows Known nucleus (solid blue), surrounded by Knowable membrane (blue/pink stripes), all contained within Unknown field (pink). Bidirectional arrows suggest flow/exchange at each boundary. The whole demonstrates how each territory's natural position creates support for the others.

Triptych showing the complete pattern. Left panel shows "Basic Territory Map" with its clear territories and permeable boundaries. Center shows "Living Territory Structure" in cellular form. Right shows first frame of "Self-Teaching Sequence" with Known triangle and emerging possibilities. The whole demonstrates how recognition, movement, and teaching work together.
Single 2x2 grid showing probability field formation. Known territory contains three dots in triangle formation, Knowable shows swirling field patterns of varying line weight (like eddies in water) concentrated near the gaps, Unknown remains clear. The whole suggests how probability gathers around natural movement paths.
A triptych showing three aspects of pattern recognition in complementary 2x2 grids. Left panel: The basic pattern map with Known (blue), Knowable (blue/pink stripes), and Unknown (pink) territories with permeable borders. Center panel: Two sets of probability fields at boundaries - one between Known/Knowable and one between Knowable/Unknown, showing swirling patterns and varying line weights suggesting natural movement. Right panel: Three dots arranged in triangle formation, shown in three states - gathering in Unknown, distributed across territories during development, and finally established in Known. The whole composition suggesting how recognition progresses from basic territory awareness through probability field sensitivity to practical pattern reading.
Triptych showing three aspects of pattern teaching. Left panel shows "Active Probability Fields" with swirls gathering near gaps. Center shows balanced "Living Territory Balance" with clear membrane and flow arrows. Right shows first frame of "Self-Teaching Sequence" with Known triangle and suggesting line segments in Knowable. The whole demonstrates how probability, space, and self-teaching work together.
Single cellular diagram showing pattern evolution through geometric elements. Known nucleus contains simple outlined square, Knowable membrane shows scattered right angles and partial box formations, Unknown field contains random line segments with occasional right angles. All elements drawn with same line weight. The whole suggests how complex forms emerge from simple elements.
Three small 2x2 grids arranged horizontally, showing probability field evolution. First grid shows faint swirls, second shows more concentrated patterns, third shows clear pathway formed. All using same line weight but varying density to show how probability concentrates.
Single square-ish panel showing balanced pattern integration. Three dots in triangle formation within circular Known, but with subtle suggestion of rotation/motion (perhaps through slight position variations or faint movement trails). Even Knowable membrane pulses slightly wider at three points aligned with triangle vertices, suggesting how stable pattern maintains living connection with possibility.
A sequence of three linked diagrams showing territory interaction. 1) Known and Knowable exchanging through their shared border, shown as oscillating waves 2) Knowable and Unknown in similar exchange, with different wave pattern 3) The whole system in harmonious movement, with both exchanges happening simultaneously. Arrows and wave patterns suggest ongoing, natural flow rather than forced movement.
Single cellular diagram showing healthy territory relationship. Circular Known nucleus contains three dots in perfect equilateral triangle formation, surrounded by naturally curved Knowable membrane in even proportion, Pink Unknown beyond. No hard borders.
