THIS GESTALT ARTIFICE MATHEMATICALLY ARRANGES A LARGE MATRIX OF RADII, ELLIPSES, AND CHORDS FOR USE IN SKATEPARK DESIGN. THE IDEA WAS TO CREATE A SET OF SYMPATHETIC GEOMETRIES TO ACT AS A GUIDE TO THE POSSIBLE DESIGN OF TRAINING FACILITIES AND COMPETITION AREAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE OLYMPICS, AS WELL AS A TOOL WHICH COULD EASE THE DIALOG BETWEEN AN ARCHITECT OR CONTRACTOR AND A SKATEBOARDING PUBLIC. APPROXIMATE VELOCITY VALUES ARE ASSOCIATED WITH EACH PLANE.

& PARTIAL MORPHOLOGY OF CURVE 5, OF CURVES 1-12 &
Delineated here is curve 5, we see it scaled upward in one dimension between 5,1a and 5,1g and outward in two dimensions between 5,3a and 5,3g & inward in two dimensions between 5,3z and 5,3w & downward in one dimension between 5,1z and 5,1w, with the same percent difference between each curve. Then we have the chords of ellipses to use as embankments 5Ba-5Bg and 5Bw and 5Bg.
