But here is my question: Why must we think of it as simply a fourth dimension? Perhaps it would be more instructive to consider it as akin to earths terramagnetic fieldas something that surrounds and permeates the dimensions we perceive rather than being simply one more dimension. At the places of intersection, the lines of force would cohere, much as the lines of an electromagnetic pole cohere, albeit invisibly, and influence physics in our three known dimensions, and perhaps beyond them. If so, then the structure of the Breach itself might be something familiar to most scientists, a Fibonacci spiral. This Breach, as I named it in the first of these journals, or Fault Line, as I have begun to call it since setting my sights on California as the most propitious spot for prospecting, has now become my central obsession. (Fault is by way of a small jest, since the earth of Americas western coast is rotten with faults of the seismic variety, coupled with the fact that several people have suggested my fascination with this line of study is a bit of a fault.)

Man, it just goes on like this, Tyler grumbled. Old Octavio has a totally bad case of cant-talk-normal-English. Do you want me to read it instead? No.

If it does take the form of a Fibonacci spiral, there would not only be a point of intersection with physical space, but at that intersection would be found areas of greater concentration of what is currently thought to be a single medium of unchanging densitythe fourth dimension expressed as a cohered monopole at the center of a fifth-dimensional rolling vortex. That is to say, at the heart of the infolding there would be a place where a near infinite expression of that medium would be located in a very small part of our four-dimensional matrix. Would that not be a very merry thing to find? In any case, Father and Mother are both quite put out with these kinds of maunderings, as Father puts it, and forbid me from such research until at least the time when I have received a doctorate and may pursue knowledge without the shame of being perceived a crackpot Man, this guy is the mayor of Mad Scientist Town! said Tyler, laughing. But what does it all mean? she asked. Whats a fourth dimension? How should I know? In my science class we learned how to make a rocket out of a plastic soda bottle. Tyler riffled through the pages of the ruined notebook. Thats about all there is left to readjust a few words and sentences here and there and some math stuff. The only thing for certain is that hes saying theres an earlier diary, and if old Octavios the kind of guy who keeps diaries there might be a whole bunch of them stashed away somewhere and not eaten by mice. Tyler handed her back the notebook. Hide it again. If therere more Im going to find them. If anybodys going to tell us whats going on with this place, its the guy who built it.
