Front Cover: The Indigenous Tribesmen of Neverland



The front cover of The Indigenous Tribesmen of Neverland at left shows a picture embedded in a picture. In the inner picture there is an image of spacetime warping seen from the Point of View of an object approaching the speed of light. Space and time must warp, (time dilates and space contracts) in order to accommodate the finite speed of light (radiation propagation). Causality requires this because it too is a signal carrying information. The symmetry of space and time worked out by Einstein had an implication for the symmetry of matter and energy, expressed in the famous equation E = m(c squared). The matter energy symmetry is explored by the Standard Model whose symbol the Feynman Diagram is also in the picture, placed right at the fold where spacetime is warping to accommodate the viewer approaching the speed of light as he falls into the horopter. Tachyons are field quanta that never go slower than the speed of light, they never land. Unlike 'tardyons' which is energy slowed down and captured, forming normal matter.

The novel The Indigenous Tribesmen of Neverland speaks to this epistemology as it inhabits the mindset of my generation, albeit way in the back of the mind. Another association of Neverland is what psychologists have called The Peter Pan Syndrome, the tendency of hippie men to hold off on maturing as long as possible. The novel humorously explores this in the context of bohemian Austin.

The back cover shows variations around the heart. Close up view of the surfaces of some lovely blue mophead hydrangeas, represent a space-time manifold, used as a metaphor in the book for kinship community. The net model of the heart suggests the gigantic group diagram for the symmetry cascade at work in the most fundamental processes of the universe. The Rubik cube, a separable space and example of a group algebra is shown at the center of one of these space time manifold flowers. As is an origami cube. The Rubik cube is used as the central image in a post modern story near the end of the book.
