Triten Measure and lixcaliber,
the Golden Section scale of “Earth Measure”
The first of four illustrations in the series, TriTen Measure, is an exact scale drawing of
the Solar Systems planetary mean distances based on the Astronomical Unit and the Golden Section.
drawings, exterior dimensions: 2.207 x 3.571 lix, (phi16x phi17divided by 1000)
The scale lixcaliber is an artifact discovered in TriTen as the final draft neared completion and is
here imbedded in the North face of the Great Pyramid, number 5E on the lix grid.
Its origin is elsewhere.
The Astronomical Unit and the Soul of the British Foot
“Never chase after buses, wo/men or cosmological theories.
There will always be another along in a few minutes” Isaac Asimov
The AU., the mean distance from the Sun to the Earth, is the basis for measuring long distances within
the Solar System. Joe Batter believed it was one source of a universal Unit of measure. At the time he was
plotting Planetary mean distance numbers from the 1979 Astronomical Ephemeris, with Feet, in tenths, (1/600).
Joe first converted the A.U. into Feet. The number is usually given now in Meters:
1.4959787 x 1011 meters
Converting to Feet by dividing Meters by 0.3048 = 4.9080666 x 1011 Feet. Because he was working to
a high degree of accuracy a remarkable order of coincidence occurred within the Planetary mean
distance numbers. When the pattern wouldn’t gel we began to suspect
the Unit might not be the British Foot after all.
One of the exercises Joe performed with the A.U. in Feet was to multiply it by 33:
A.U. = (4.9080666 x 1011) x 33 = 1.619661978 x 1013 Feet.
He noticed the result is a close approximation of the Golden Section
and divided it by 1.618033988 to produce the Conversion Ratio:
1.619661978 / 1.618033988 = 1.001006153
Conversely, dividing the Golden Section by 33 produces the Astronomical Unit but not in feet.
Joe applied the “ancient” conversion to other known measurements such as Planetary mean
distances, Light Speed and the Great Pyramid at Gizeh. The results confirm the existence
of a Planetary System of Measure based on the Golden Section and pi.
Joe Batter named the System “TriTen” and the unit “lix”.
1.001006(153) feet = 1 lix
“l” is for light speed, “i” is the Planetary mean distance set and ‘”x” is for Time.
This introduction reveals some of the “phi nominal” rediscoveries we’ve made with them:
phi and the a.u.
(1.6180339887 / 33) x 1013 = 4.9031333 x 1011lix = 1 A.U.
(4.9080666 feet – 4.9031333 lix = .0049333)
Light Speed:
982,582,582.5825 lix per second
Joe felt this astonishing correction to a repeating number is, “not too surprising considering
Light Speed is measured in Earth seconds and the mean distance to the Sun is a function
of the Golden Section and the number 33″.
25 x 5 x 33 = 5280, 52 x 33 = 825
S.O.L. = 2.997924580 x 108 meters per sec / 0.3048 / 982582582.5825 = 1.001005996
lix conversion, 1.001006153 – 1.001005996 = .000000157
The length of one Earth second fluctuates through Time as Light “speed” does and by extension
“distances” through Space. For accurate measurements the unit must be adjustable. Joe was so intrigued
by the adjustment he later worked out the conversions to eleven decimals of accuracy, the “lix Ephemeris”.
982,582,582.58259 lix x 1.001006 ft / 5280 miles = 186,282.3978 mps
A phibonacci formula for the lix conversion:
phibo #11 = 89, phibo #5 = 5
(89 / 5phi) – 9.999999 = (89 / 8.09016995) – 9.999999 = 1.001005996
in 333 seconds Light travels 3272 x 108 lix:
982,582,582.5825 x 333 = 327,199,999,999,9725 lix

+ 1618
= 33033
The first “0″ in pi occurs at the 33 digit.
There is also a 0 at digit 55 and 66.
There are 33 digits
between the first three 0′s of phi.

(10 / 1.618034) – 1.618 = 4.56234

Golden Section
For newcomers and aficionados, a brief refresher on phi, the Golden Section Ratio:
1 : 6180339887+
Nature is replete with the golden ratio in the proportions of area, volume, the pallisading growth
of crystals such as quartz and spirals, like the seed rows on a Sunflower.
number phive
5.5 x .5 + .5 = 1.6180339887 = phi
Phive to the power of point phive times point phive plus point phive equals phi.
1.61803398872 = 2.6180339887 = phi + 1
(5.5 + 3) x .5 = 2.6180339887
1 / 1.6180339887, the reciprocal, = .6180339887 = phi – 1
.6180339887 x .6180339887 + .6180339887 = 1
The Power of point phive
N phibonacci x 5.5 = phiN = NLucas
e.g.) phibo #19 = 4181, 4181 x 5.5 = 9349.0002 = phi19 = 9349 = #19 Lucas
(The Lucas addition series produces the powers of phi: 1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 18, 29, 47, 76, 123 etc.)
Long viewed as an aesthetic standard in Architecture and Art, the “Golden” section occurs
when the ratio between the shorter section of a line to its longer section is exactly equal
to the ratio of the longer section and the whole line.
numerically: .38196601 is to .61803398 as .61803398 is to 1
All addition series produce approximations of phi.
One that does so in a unique way is the “One Phive” series: 1 + 5 = 6 + 5 = 11 + 6 = 17 etc.
1, 5, 6, 11, 17, 28, 45, 73, 118, 191, 309, 500, 809, 1309, 2118, etc.
between 118 and 2118, phive numbers are centred on 500:
| 191 / 500 |
.382 |
| 309 / 500 |
.618 |
| 500 / 500 |

| 809 / 500 |

The lix unit and the Great Pyramid at Gizeh
After examining in great detail the slope angles, hypotenuse, of quartz crystal, the Great Pyramid and two
right angles derived from pi and phi, Joe Batter resolved the “pyrameter” triangle, relative to the four faces
of the Great Pyramid and the slope angle of the six triangular faces of quartz crystal:
51 degrees, 47.2 minutes, + or – 3 minutes
(the three minute variation is due to the electrical sensitivity of quartz)
Balanced on a Point
“I have evidence to show that the core masonry and the paving stones of the Great Pyramid were
positioned according to this triangle. It is not a right angle but approximately 89 degrees, 56 minutes.
This accounts for its longevity as the Great Pyramid was among the first built along the Nile Valley.
Subsequent Pyramids, built with the plumb bob method deteriorated over time as earthquakes loosened
the stonework. The masonry stones of the Great Pyramid slope four minutes, down towards the centre.
Built this way, earthquakes tend to tighten the joints.”
“quotes”, j.e.b.
Using the Pyrameter triangle as a module Joe plotted the mean distances of the Planets
and cross section of the Great Pyramid, revealing the lix grid and the scale, “lixcaliber”.
Further applications of lix:
After his death in 1994 i continued the exploration, opening web pages in 1996 and discovering, in 2008:
The Numerical Source of Great Pyramid Chamber dimensions.

John N. Harris writes: “I am happy to report I have been able to independantly confirm the
fundamental form of the Great Pyramid, (pyrameter triangle), developed by Joseph Batter
and yourself as described on your “lix unit” page.”

“While the Golden Section, phi, is the basis for the dynamic geometry of Nature, static geometry
is based on pi: 3.141592653589 etc. Pi exists primarily in the mind and mathematics of Humans.
The dynamic energy within Nature distorts a true circle or sphere.” jeb
Phi and Pi can be calculated to millions of decimal places with no apparant pattern
however they are intrinsically related to one another.
.3 x 2.61803399 = .78541019
3.14159253 / 4 = .78539816
difference = .00001203
ratio: 1.00001531
One way of achieving a close approximation of pi
is through the square root of phibo #16, 987:
(987.5 / 10) = 3.141655614
pi = 3.141592653
diff = .000062961
ratio: 1.00002004
An approximation of phi from the 10th root of 123, (lucas #10)

phi = 1.618033988
diff = .000010697
ratio: 1.00000661
In the context of lix pi is usually represented by the letter “C” = 355/113. This ratio,
rediscovered in the 15th Century by Adriaan Anthonizoon is generated by pairing
the first three odd numbers: 1 1 3 3 5 5, then divide the last three digits
by the first three to achieve a fairly close approximation of pi.
355 / 113 = 3.14159292
pi = 3.14159265
diff = .00000027
ratio: 1.00000008
first 3 digits of pi total 8
first 3 digits of phi total 8
first 8 digits of pi total 31
the first 8 digits of phi total 31
13th and 15th digit of pi and phi is 9
314159 and 1618033 are prime numbers
Both pi and phi contain 6 “bookended” numbers:
pi: 141, 535, 979, 323 626, 383 in the first 28 digits
phi: 161, 989, 484, 868,343, 656 in the first 32 digits

the first “0″ in pi occurs at the 33 digit
there is also a 0 at digit 55 and 66
there are 33 digits between the first three 0′s of phi.
the first 7 phibonacci numbers total 33
1 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 8 + 13 =
In the following table the first 42 digits of pi and phi are separated into groups of six.
The row beneath is the sum of the six above.
The third row is the sum of the first 18, 30 and 42 digits.
At 18 pi total is 85 and phi is 100.

While it might seem insignificant the first 18 digits of phi total 100 and the first 42 total 200
consider that no other “hundreds” appear on an exact digit in the first 300 digits of either pi or phi
with the mind boggling exception of these two:
the digits of pi add to 1000 on #217, a 1
the digits of phi add to 1000 on #221, also a 1
pi 126 + = 588 = 12 x 49
phi 126 + = 582 = 6 x 97
dif: 6
pi 242 + = 1139 = 17 x 67
phi 242 + = 1133 = 11 x 103
dif : 6
the phibonacci series starts again every 300 additions.
the first 300 digits of pi total 1339 = 13 x 103
the first 300 digits of phi total 1369 = 372

” Pi is one of the most beautiful things in the world and if i can share that joy in numbers, if i can share that
in some small measure with the world, through my writing and through my speaking, then I feel that i’ve
done something useful.” Daniel Tammet, in March 2004 recited 22,514 digits of pi from memory, without error.

153 (number)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One hundred (and) fifty-three is the natural number following one hundred (and) fifty-two and preceding one hundred (and) fifty-four.
[edit] Mathematical properties
As a triangular number, 153 is the sum of the first 17 integers, and it also the sum of the first five positive factorials: .[1]
The number 153 is also a hexagonal number, and a truncated triangle number, meaning that 1, 15, and 153 are all triangle numbers.
The distinct prime factors of 153 add up to 20, and so do the ones of 154, hence the two form a Ruth-Aaron pair.
Since  , it is a 3-narcissistic number, and it is also the smallest three-digit number which can be expressed as the sum of cubes of its digits.[2] Only five other numbers can be expressed as the sum of the cubes of their digits: 0, 1, 370, 371 and 407.[3] It is also a Friedman number, since 153 = 3 × 51, and a Harshad number in base 10, being divisible by the sum of its own digits.
The Biggs–Smith graph is a symmetric graph with 153 edges, all equivalent.
Another interesting feature of the number 153 is that it is the limit of the following algorithm:[4][5]
- Take a random positive integer, divisible by three.
- Split that number into its base 10 digits.
- Take the sum of their cubes.
- Go back to the second step.
An example, starting with the number 84:

The Miraculous catch of 153 fish by Duccio, 14th century, showing Jesus and the 7 fishing disciples (with Peter leaving the boat).
The Gospel of John (chapter 21:1–14) includes the narrative of the Miraculous catch of 153 fish as the third appearance of Jesus after his resurrection.[6]
The precision of the number of fish in this narrative has long been considered peculiar, and many scholars, throughout history, have argued that 153 has some deeper significance. Jerome, for example, wrote that Oppian's Halieutica listed 153 species of fish, although this could not have been the intended meaning of the Gospel writer because Oppian composed Halieutica after the Gospel text was written, and at any rate never gave a list of fish species that clearly adds up to 153.[7][8] It has also been noted that the Tetragrammaton occurs 153 times in the Book of Genesis.[9]
Augustine of Hippo argued that the significance lay in the fact that 153 is the sum of the first 17 integers (i.e. 153 is the 17th triangular number), with 17 representing the combination of divine grace (the 7 gifts of the Spirit) and law (the Ten Commandments).[10][11] Theologian D. A. Carson discusses this and other interpretations and concludes that "If the Evangelist has some symbolism in mind connected with the number 153, he has hidden it well,"[12] while other scholars note "No symbolic significance for the number of 153 fish in John 21:11 has received widespread support."[13]
Writers claiming a major role for Mary Magdalene have noted that in Greek isopsephy her epithet "η Μαγδαληνή" bears the number 8 + 40 + 1 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 30 + 8 + 50 + 8 = 153, thus, it is suggested, revealing her importance.[14] Similarly, the phrase "τὸ δίκτυον" (the net) used in the passage bears the number 1224 = 8 × 153,[14] as do some other phrases. The significance of this is unclear, given that Koine Greek provides a choice of several noun endings[15] with different isopsephy values.[16] The number 153 has also been related to the vesica piscis, with the claim that Archimedes used 153 as a "shorthand or abbreviation"[14] for the square root of 3 in his On the Measurement of the Circle. However, examination of that work[17] does not find the number 153 used in that way.[4]
Evagrius Ponticus referred to the catch of 153 fish, as well as to the mathematical properties of the number (153 = 100 + 28 + 25, with 100 a square number, 28 a triangular number and 25 a circular number) when describing his 153-chapter work on prayer.[18] Louis de Montfort, in his fifth method of saying the Rosary, connects the catch of 153 fish with the number of Hail Marys said (3 plus 15 sets of 10),[19] while St Paul's School in London was founded in 1512 by John Colet to teach 153 poor men's children, also in reference to the catch.[20]
