Visual tour · Books and background
Books, symbols and intellectual origins
Connect the restored gallery’s symbols, manuscript photographs and book artwork with the current reading routes through the SMM and DTT programme.
The earlier gallery records a visual history of the project: symbols, manuscript pages, cover designs and photographs sit alongside its diagrams. This route connects selected images to the books and research guides available on the current site.
Use the historical material to explore the questions and vocabulary that motivate the programme. Follow the linked mathematical chapters for the explicit assumptions and arguments used in its present physical constructions.

Meet the Single Monad symbol
The restored page brings together three earlier versions of the symbol. Its accompanying gallery account traces the image to the cover of Suluk al-Qalb, The Path of the Heart. Read this as part of the project’s visual identity and follow the author page for the wider research and writing context.

Open a manuscript image in its historical context
The earlier gallery identifies this Arabic manuscript image with Ibn al-Arabi’s Meccan Revelations. Its visual details offer an entry into the textual setting of the research. The linked reading guide introduces the questions of time and cosmology developed from that setting; the gallery caption does not supply a manuscript shelfmark or critical edition.

Connect the cover artwork to the Single Monad Model
This artwork comes from the cover of The Single Monad Model of the Cosmos. It connects the archive’s visual language with the book’s discussion of time, creation and observable multiplicity. Continue to the book landing page to find its description and available reading options.

Explore the Temporal Numbers cover
The image is the cover of Temporal Numbers: from Zero to Infinity, with a fractal illustration. Its visible title identifies it as book artwork. The current book page provides the appropriate route from that image to the work itself, while the gallery’s nature collection offers a separate place to explore recurring forms.

Choose a reading route through the research books
The map groups four themes: philosophical foundations, the dual-time proposal, symmetry and an accessible account of the time chest. Its arrangement offers entry points through the series. Choose a theme that matches your interests, then use the accompanying guides to follow the mathematical bridges between the volumes.
The book themes connect philosophical foundations, dual-time formalism, symmetry, and accessible explanations. The arrangement is a reading route through the programme, with each mathematical bridge developed separately.
