The last day at Firedrums, Alien Jon, Yuta, and I were playing with a pattern I could not for the life of me get: it's a switch that Ronan does between adjacent pendulum vs. CAP hybrids using a move in the middle I couldn't make out (he does it at 3:09 of his BJC performance video). After a couple weeks of futzing with it, I found the solution quite on accident--the middle move is cateye vs pendulum, a bizarre hybrid Ronan taught in one of his classes at Firedrums.

Christian (Insignia) posted a series of images to his Facebook profile last week detailing a few diagrams wherein a body could transition between triquetras and cateyes in a variety of really fascinating ways. After playing around with the idea for a little while and realizing it featured a geometric concept called a vesica piscis, I worked out where playing with cateyes and triquetras using the concept could take you. Ironically, the shapes are all axially, but not radially symmetric as Christian's diagrams came out.
