spinning

lemme no if'n y'all see anything inaccurate in the following
when viewed from above (north) and on into the "void")

dervishes spin anticlockwise
tornadoes and hurricanes spin anticlockwise
the earth spins anticlockwise
the orbits of planets spin anticlockwise
the milky way galaxy spins anticlockwise

accurate?

assuming accuracy, and extrapolating from known data:
as you expand your perspective, the center keeps reorienting to the focal point of the perspective
is it a center devoid of the viewer?
the "limitations of space" are derivative of the perspective?
the perspective becomes the subjective reality and for the existentialists, the ultimate reality
which begs the question
where,when,why,how,does it end
oops-musings

the reason being:
I am trying to design a sculpture that reflects the essence of the above---
uncluttered yet succinct
(perhaps,components within sculpted matrix???...tornado dervish earth ---with solarsystem and arms of galaxy as bronze disks embedded in the landscape and spiral swales---perhaps--)

thoughts?
rod

epimethius:
the sculpted(raised) matrix to be kinetic wind driven
