WhoaMan,
I really dig what you are talking about with the infinite series forming into resonances of mass. Do you have any more on this theory (youtube links/readings)? I wouldn't mind reading over that a bit, piqued my curiosity to say the least.
Heh, well I thought that it was only in the realms of mysticism and conspiracy theories like Montauk and the Ong's Hat legend that anything comparable came up. So maybe i've read stuff in the distant past and forgotten about it, or maybe it was a moment of divine inspiration. However, i've been digging recently because I think it's a pretty intriguing theory, and found this lot:
Nikola Tesla said:
According to an adopted theory, every ponderable atom is differentiated from a tenuous fluid, filling all space merely by spinning motion, as a whirl of water in a calm lake. By being set in movement this fluid, the ether, becomes gross matter. Its movement arrested, the primary substance reverts to its normal state. It appears, then, possible for man through harnessed energy of the medium and suitable agencies for starting and stopping ether whirls to cause matter to form and disappear. At his command, almost without effort on his part, old worlds would vanish and new ones would spring into being. He could alter the size of this planet, control its seasons, adjust its distance from the sun, guide it on its eternal journey along any path he might choose, through the depths of the universe. He could make planets collide and produce his suns and stars, his heat and light; he could originate life in all its infinite forms. To cause at will the birth and death of matter would be man's grandest deed, which would give him the mastery of physical creation, make him fulfill his ultimate destiny.
Also, i've been reading the book "Liber Null and Psychonaut" by Peter Carroll (Chaos Magick), and in the first pages it mentions something about the origins of the universe that pretty closely ties in with this stuff.
At the time I was convinced that it all had something to do with logarithmic series like the golden spiral - which is pretty strange in itself because i'm pretty much a duffer when it comes to maths! (Unless I really need to use it (like when I was playing around with OpenGL and 3D), then i'll make the effort to play with it).
Then today I found these:
Zeno's Mice and the Logarithmic Spiral
From the above link said:
For an interesting application of this curve, see Sections 730 and 731 of James Clerk Maxwell’s Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism, which presents a discussion of general oscillatory motions. Maxwell points out that many such motions can essentially be represented by the motion of a particle subjected to two forces, one directed toward some central point with magnitude proportional to the distance from that point, and another retarding force proportional to the speed of the particle. He shows that the path of a particle subjected to such forces is a logarithmic spiral.
Since 2005, we have helped thousands of people get the perfect domain name.

http://www.larouchepub.com/eiw/public/2008/2008_1-9/2008-1/pdf/59-63_3501.pdf - I mention this one since it mentions cellular automata which is mentioned somewhere in the Incunabula catalogue.
I've gone back to look at the Ong's Hat stuff recently, and its starting to make sense now! I always was properly fascinated by this legend.
And another weird coincidence that has just cropped up as i'm typing this is that there is a TV programme about the Rosslyn Chapel on later. Apparently there was encoded in the stonework some musical stuff that related to sacred geometry and healing, which is mentioned in that crystalinks link!
Ong's Hat (some of the links in these pages may only be found on the wayback machine now):

So there you go - chaos magick, hyperspace travel cults, sacred geometry, Nikola Tesla, The KLF and DMT!
[edit]: Electromagnetism (and gravity) in 6 dimensions - maybe everything in 6D appears as 1/distance squared to us in 3 dimensions:
en.wikipedia.org
But then again, it looks like 1/D squared also has a relationship to the golden spiral too.

Must say I must also compliment you on The Verve. Not many I know give this band enough credit beyond Bittersweet Symphony; they're very underrated in my opinion.
Yeah, they are severely underrated. Must say that I never paid them any attention until fairly recently after seeing them play at Glastonbury on TV one night. I love that guitar sound in Star Sail, less is definitely more in that case! Two brilliant albums.
