Alphebets as Negentropic Field Generators: update article April 2014: fractalfield.com/negentropicfields
"In paragraph 4, page 2, Mr Tenen exposes the crux of
his misconception when he defines the signature of his personal
discovery (he says the end of the vortex bends back in the opposite
direction of any form of the Golden Mean spiral) (again showing
that Stan Tenen's model IS NOT the correct Golden Mean spiral..dew)
and claims he owns 'copyrights' to it. The idea, once discovered
is the property of all humanity, it is only the particular expression
of it to which he owns copyrights. He does not have a copyright
in the "discovery", only in the words and forms he used
to express it. "

Re: Stan Tenen's Unsupportable Claim to Copyright His Own Origin
of Hebrew Letters. Showing That Hebrew letters were named in biblical
times :"tetragramaton", literally a Grammar of Tetrahedrons".
Since Hebrew was known in biblical times as a grammar of tetrahedrons,
Tenen's claims to originality in using a tetrahedron to derive
Hebrew are unfounded.-------
The earliest name for Hebrew's holiest letters is "tetragrammatron". (Yod-He-Vau-He). The literal meaning of this name for Hebrew's holiest letters is that this is "A GRAMMAR OF TETRAHEDRONS". Thus it is hardly original for Stan Tenen to claim centuries later that he first conceived of using the tetrahedron to map Hebrew letters.
Since Stan Tenen in all his comments I ever saw, never defined mathematically which curved strip he was inserting into the tetrahedron to imagine letterforms, his supposed originality in inventing a "new" source for Hebrew extends only to the tetrahedron itself (since this was the only shape he did define in claiming originality). Yet the cover of the book Gematria, on the origin of Biblical Hebrew or Cabala, is a picture of two nested tetrahedron. Appendix F shows three shadows of the tetrahedron, octahedron, and cube as word roots. Page 6 mentions Greek and Hebrew word roots. Published in 1917, this antedates Stan Tenen's recent claims to own a connection of tetrahedron to Hebrew.
In fact Gematria, as a name referring to biblical word meanings, derives from "geometric matrix". To claim to own all Hebrew symmetries based on tetrahedron Stan Tenen also claims to own all letterform origins based on simple cubic "geometric matrix", since these are a subset of the tetra's symmetry. Yet dozens of "Gematria" books in the literature on letterform origins, are cubic matrix plans to derive Hebrew.
Carlo Suares work "Spher Yetsira" on the origin of Hebrew letters antedates Stan Tenen. On page 86 the keys to the letters or "sephirot" are derived from the image of the cross points of two tetrahedron in a cube.
"Sefer Yetzirah: The Book of Creation" by Aryeh Kaplan was written before 1983. It is a treatise on Hebrew letter/word meanings. The cover image is a stack of tetrahedrons, page 110 uses two tetrahedrons to set up the matrix or "gates" which give meaning to Hebrew letterforms in the rest of the book.
Thus it is clear that it is unreasonable to give Stan Tenen copyrights to all Hebrew letters origins based on tetrahedron.
Since the only other form Stan Tenen used, is an undefined spiral, he cannot copyright that. At least my work uses a defined and unique spiral in tetra cube symmetry: "The Golden Mean Spiral". Daniel Winter

The complete Hebrew alphabet is derived from the shadows of the

Published 1989, but describing work done much earlier.
No mention also in this book of Stan Tenen owning all spiral
strips that cast Hebrew Alphabet shadows.
Stan Tenen's hand drawn shadowgrams also do not have any mathematical
definition of what spiral strip he is using.
Since Stan Tenen insists he is not using the Golden Mean spiral, how can he own that shape?
Stan Tenen claimed that the Golden Mean Spiral was not the
origin of the Hebrew alphabet, and failed to come up with a useable
mathematical model to computer animate it. I had been working
for years on the origin of symbol, and had already published before
hearing of Stan, the form of the Golden Spiral on the vortex into
stellated tetra in my book "One Crystal's Dance". This
was on the alphabet waveforms (tongue as a flame letter in the
vortex of the throat, creating envelope overlay on the carrier
wave of the vocal chords, whose carrier wave envelope shape suggested
the FORM of the alphabet letterforms of the vowels.) This is why
Stan called me after assembling the Star Mother tetra-dodec stellation
kit which he got from me with my book, before he sent me his work.
I spent three hard years on the spreadsheet trig, and surface
topology mapping to originally create images of the Hebrew letterforms,
after I originally conceived the idea that the Golden Mean Spiral
was the solution to the problem that Stan Tenen publicly announced
he could not solve.
I knew that The Golden Mean, was the doorway to recursion and
self-awareness, compression and shareability of wave pattern,
and the only way thoughtforms/spin ever got into and out of the
central fractal (God), and became psychokinetic..
THEN Stan Tenen elected to sue me, to own MY ORIGINAL COMPUTER
GRAPHICS??!!
In addition to refusing to accept the Golden Mean as the proper
origin or Hebrew (Unlike myself, he never shared or had any claim
to work on the English/Arabic alphabet), Stan Tenen claims publicly
that related information about the alphabet, is a SECRET belonging
to the PRIESTS only! (See his video). He also claims that the
Golden Mean Spiral has been the instrument of persecution to the
Hebrew priests through history!
Well of course, the H'Iburu Priests who massicated the genepool
here, set themselves up as "Gods" (see Sitchen on Annunaki,
see "Gods of Eden": the Elohim, Annunaki, Hebrew Gods
were of Reptilian descent, Noah had scales on his skin.) Pretending
to be Gods representatives was the way to psychologically control
the masses...
and then, the priests killed Tut, the priests killed the Templars,
the priests killed the cathars, the priests killed the Druids,
the priests murdered and tortured and robbed the brightest 25%
of the women in Europe (the Inquisition), and started more wars
than any organization in history (followed closely by the CIA)..
...and then the priests did not pretend to apologize for their
lives, whose entire existence depends on keeping the SECRETS from
the people whom they control!
... of course the H'Iburu priests do not wish you to see the pure
geometric waveform origin of symbol, ONCE YOU ACCURATELY VISUALIZE
THE ALPHABETIC ESSENCE ELEMENTS OF ALL SYMMETRY OPERATIONS, THEN
YOUR DREAMS BECOME PHASE COHERENT OPERATORS IN PSYCHOKINESIS....
THIS IS EXACTLY THE TRUE SELF EMPOWERMENT WHICH THE VAST MAJORITY
OF THE HISTORY OF PRIESTHOOD LIVED TO PREVENT!
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE SEEN MY ORIGINAL VIDEOTAPE OF COMPUTER
ANIMATIONS SHOWING THE ORIGIN OF THE ALPHABET HAVE CALLED TO SAY
THAT THEIR DREAMS WERE EFFECTED PROFOUNDLY AND THEIR LIFE WAS
CHANGED!
I have given away absolutely freely the vast majority of these
videos, have given free permission to reproduce EVERYTHING I HAVE
EVER DONE. My life is an experiment in total sharing, NO SECRETS.
This is an anathema to Priests.
Of course the Golden Mean spiral has been a thorn in the side
of the H'Iburu priests:
ANY WAVE FORM OR IDEA ON THIS CURVE CANNOT BE KEPT SECRET. The
Golden Mean represents the most TOTALLY SHAREABLE SPIN PATTERN
POSSIBLE. IT IS PRECISELY THE WAVEFORM, PHI, WHICH IS THE PHYSICAL
WAVE MECHANIC OF THE END OF THE POSSIBILITY OF IMAGINING ANYTHING
SECRET!..
The whole story of the SIN of Adam and Eve, is the priest assigned
guilt for being self-replicating, self-empowered. (Sitchen, &
Bramley: Gods of Eden, and Robret Morningsky..) The Orions who
controlled the Niburu genesplicers, told them to make Adam / Osiris
as DROIDS. Imagine the priests agony now finding that their droids
are becoming more psychokinetic their gene hacker priest creator
Orion and Sirian priest "Gods"!

After the judge on the west coast through out all of Stan Tenen's
motions, and accepted mine saying Stan Tenen's claim to own the
form of the Hebrew Letters was "uncopyrightable material..
(you can NEVER OWN AN IDEA, ONLY YOUR PARTICULAR FORM OF IT'S
EXPRESSION... Stan Tenen cannot claim that my original form based
on the Golden Mean is wrong, and that he still owns it!?)...
then Stan Tenen's free and religiously motivated lawyer harrased
the judge on the East coast and my attorney ($20,000 later) said
"you cannot afford me to fight their current motion for a
restraining order".. so I was coerced into stipulated "I
would not put Stan Tenen's copyrighted form" on the internet.
Well of course I would never share Stan Tenen's copyrighted form,
IT IS NOT BASED ON THE ONLY POSSIBLE CORRECT SOLUTION: THE GOLEND
MEAN SPIRAL.. His form is not in anything I've written. ...
BUT I EVEN BEND OVER BACKWARDS AND GO TO THE EXTREME AND UNNECESSARY
STEP OF REMOVED EVEN MY ORIGINAL GOLDEN MEAN PICTURES OF HEBREW
LETTERS FROM ANYTHING I SHARE ON THE INTERNET..
I explain this without objection to the judge on the East coast,
who has not made any ruling..
BUT STILL BY SENDING CUBIC YARDS OF LEGAL SLANDER AND HARASSMENTS
TO NOT HUNDREDS BUT THOUSANDS OF FRIENDS, INCLUDING MY NEW YORK
INTERNET SUPPLIER, STAN TENEN MANAGES TO MAKE THINGS INCONVENIENT.
BASICALLY that internet supplier says, they believe in my work,
but just don't want any hassle..
So they dump me, after taking $450 and weeks of work from me..

RECENT LEGAL SUMMARY:
Re: Tenen vs Winter
from Dan Winter
On 3-29-1987 before meeting Stan Tenen or knowing of his work,
I published a small book entitled "One Crystal's Dance..
Geometric Keys" The booklet accompanied a modeling kit I
designed called "Star Mother". This model was the unpacking
of the tetrahedron by simple nesting into all the other simple
regular "platonic" solids.
The picture on the cover of that book, was also the top down view
of my "Star Mother" kit:
Exhibit A, COVER OF DAN WINTERS 1987 BOOK,
(Before Stan Tenen wrote to him)..
TOP VIEW OF 3D Spirals on Vortex into Nest of Unfolded Tetrahedron
Exhibit B, TRACED FROM COVER OF DAN WINTERS 1987 BOOK,
EXACT TOP VIEW OF 3D TRACE WHICH IS DAN WINTERS ORIGINAL GOLDEN
MEAN ALPHABET.. Spirals on Vortex into Nest of Unfolded Tetrahedron
When the tetrahedron is unpacked this way into the cube and repeating
dodecahedron, it creates pairs of Golden Mean Spirals, these are
one set cut out from that same March 1987 book cover.
Inside the book I published the exact 3 dimensional point values
for these spirals as they wrapped around down vortex in 3D into
the center of the nest from tetrahedron to dodecahedron.
Note here for comparison purposes my original accurate computer
model of the geometric keys to alphabet, which is the exact same
two Golden Mean spirals, separated by 36 degrees.
I spent 2 man-years to develop the spreadsheet algebra. I started
with exactly the same 3D points which I published in my book preceding
any contact with Stan Tenen's work. The dramatic difference between
his work and mine was that I based ALL my letterform images on
this exact pair of Golden Mean spirals. Stan Tenen has never accepted
the Golden Mean spiral as the correct solution to the problem
of symbol and embeddedness.
IN ORDER FOR ALPHABET LETTERS TO WORK AS LITTLE REPRESENTATIONS
OF BIG OBJECTS, EACH LETTER MUST BE A PERFECT "LITTLE FRACTAL"..
SO THE LITTLE SHAPE OF THE SYMBOL IS A FRACTAL "ZOOM SHOT"
OF THE BIG OBJECT IT REPRESENTS. THIS EQUATION SHOWS THAT THE
GOLDEN MEAN SPIRAL MAKES THE BEST RECURSIVE FRACTAL PATH TO CONNECT
BIG TO LITTLE. STAN TENEN'S BIG MISTAKE IS NOT ACCEPTING THAT
THE GOLDEN MEAN SPIRAL HAS TO BE THE BEST WAY TO MAKE SYMBOLS
AND PERMIT OUR SYMBOL SHAPES TO EMBED OR NEST IN THE WORLD
After receiving my original book and assembling my model of the
unpackinging of the tetrahedron in has lab, Stan Tenen invited
me there. During that visit, witnessed by Lorin Kiely and Stephanie
Sutton, Stan Tenen kept insisting that he had not determined the
critical part of the geometric keys to the self organizing alphabet
of symmetry. This was WHAT mathematical spiral to use around the
self-organizing donut, and how to model it in computer. I knew
at that time that the Golden Mean spiral was the most self-evident
solution to the problem of self-organization. I also knew that
the Golden Mean spiral best solved the problem of embeddedness
or nestedness, which was what symbolic alphabets needed to be
in order to make true "morphic fractal" shape pictures
of objects outside your head.
EXHIBIT C
The formula for the Golden Mean Spiral is the "image of the
condition of pure self-reference", or self-embeddedness.
This has to be the correct shape to permit symbols, letters, to
embed us in our world. Because Stan Tenen chose not to use this
shape to create letterforms, his work is fundamentally flawed.

8. Preface to responses to complaint.
9. In 1984 before knowing of Stan Tenen, I published a little
book "One Crystal's Dance". It was the story of the
index of symmetry based on the tetrahedron as the seed to all
simple 3D solids. I started by showing how a tetrahedron would
fit perfectly into a cube. Then I showed how you could simply
draw a "pentagonal dodecadedron" exactly around the
points of that cube. The pictures then showed the Golden Mean
spiral tracing that 3D path which allowed the tetrahedron to fit
into the pentagonal shapes.
The subtitle of the book was "Geometric KEYS to the Resonant
Spirit of Biology". What I was working on was the key to
the nest of shapes which would allow geometric paths (like the
Golden Mean spiral), to be indexed in such a way as CREATE THE
SHAPES FOUND IN BIOLOGY. The index to the paths of symmetry which
created biological shapes, is the same as the origin of true alphabets.
The project I published a solution for in 1984 based on how the
Golden Mean Spirals nest into the unfolded Tetrahedron, was already
then a solution to how vortex made an index to symmetry. Much
later when it turned out that this my 1984 use of the Golden Mean
spiral, was the solution to the alphabet problem Stan Tenen never
solved (because he never determined exactly which spiral to use),
then Stan Tenen got upset and defensive because I solved a problem
he could not. The pair of spirals on the front cover of that book,
Exhibit A and B (and mapped with 3 dimensional coordinates pn
a vortex inside), are the exact same top view as the original
alphabet views based only on Golden Mean spirals, I published
years later.. Exhibit. B.
It is critical to understand that my 1984 "Geometric Keys
to the Resonant Spirit of Biology", were the index to symmetry
which makes BOTH BIOLOGICAL SHAPES AND ALPHABET.
With the book I sent out a"Star Mother" model kit. This
model started with the tetrahedron in the center, and simply connected
the tips to make ALL the other simple 3D solids (cube, octa, dodca
& icosa). In that book I published exact coodinates of the
3 dimensional curved golden mean spiral which linked each connector
of the star mother. Much later when I learned to use spread sheet
algebra on 3 dimensional data points, I took the exact spacing
trace of two of those golden mean spirals and mapped them onto
the donut to discover the correct origin of the alphabet as index
to symmetry.
10. Much later, after reading my book, and assembling and mounting
my "Star Mother" in his lab, Stan Tenen invited me to
his home, and I learned of his work.(LATE 1987-88). During those
meetings, Lorin Kiely and Stephanie Sutton were present and witnessed
Stan Tenen using my "Star Mother" model of the unfolding
tetrahedra, and telling me that he was stuck in work
ing out the alphabetic origin of symbols because he couldn't determine
which exact spiral to use. He also said during those meetings
that up to that time he had failed to produce a usable computer
model of the undetermined spiral.
11. AS A FORMER SYSTEMS ANALYST WITH IBM, I returned to my lab,
and spent two years consulting on the best way to map a spiral
upon a 3D donut. Michael Martin, the author of the 3D software
package Super3D, gave me the key idea, that it was necessary to
take the data point out of the 3D picture software into a simple
speadsheet and do algebra upon them. And then, to reimport them
back into the imaging program Super3D. Working on this problem
of how to best get pure symmetry into symbol, made me such an
expert of this 3D modeling technique, that I have frequently been
called upon to consult on high level professional problems in
3D mapping.
12. (with Ben Procari, Imageographer, 66 Calodine Ave, Amherst,
NY, 14226,
13. also with Karl Vesterling, installer of the multimedia system
in the White House, of Exucom MultiMedia, home: 167 West Royal
Pkwy, Wiliamsville, NY 14221, 716 626 4279)
14. During this time I was mystified by why Stan Tenen continuously
refused to accept my idea that the Golden Mean Spiral was the
correct shape for the origin of symbolic alphabets. It was clear
from my Star Mother model that MY GOLDEN MEAN SPIRAL IDEA WAS
the only way to unpack the tetrahedron (index to all symmetry),
into the rest of the simple 3D solids (the ICOSAHEDRON AND DODECAHEDRON).
15. Stan's failure to accept the Golden Mean spiral for alphabets
was particularly strange in light of the obvious need for the
origin of symbols to make possible embeddedness or nestedness
into the world. AS THE PERFECT MAKER OF NESTEDNESS (SELF-REFERENCE),
ONLY THE GOLDEN MEAN SPIRAL WORKS. SEE EXHIBIT C).
Stan Tenen himself continually referred to the importance of self-reference
or recursion in his work. The world class mathematician author
of "Self Reference and Recursion", Louis Kaufmann, whom
we both knew, published the formula for the Golden Mean Spiral
as "the image of pure self-reference". This meant that
symbols made of the Golden Mean spiral could best get our ideas
embedded in, or "fractal" to our world. For those who
understand this exciting idea, it means that Golden Mean shaped
symbols permit information itself to become fractal. As any software
scientist will agree, that fractal information sets become: highly
compressible, and highly storable, and therefore best shareable.
This is the purpose of symbolic alphabets.
16. For this reason Stan Tenen's continued failure to accept my
idea to use the Golden Mean spiral to create the origin of symbolic
alphabets, has to be the most sad mistake of his life. It means
that philosophically, he has opposed himself to all the thinkers
focused on fractals as the path out of chaos. The Golden Mean
spiral is the best Fractal Maker (of recursion or self-embeddedness)
See Exhibit C. GOLDEN MEAN SYMBOLS BEING THE BEST "LITTLE
FRACTALS" THEREFORE HAVE THE BEST ABILITY TO TAKE ON THE
SHAPE OF THEIR OBJECTS!. Unlike Stan Tenen, using the Golden Mean
spiral also enabled me to extend my work beyond the biblical Hebrew
alphabet to the Arabic and English letterforms.
17. With regard to Stan Tenen's claim that I shared his work without
permission, there is little more than irony. Stan Tenen on numerous
occasions sent me his manuscripts specifically asking me to send
them out with my work, since they obviously were related to my
origin work. He never sent me any material after the complete
package which accompanied the letter attached which said: "Stan
wanted me to send the enclosed off to you... perhaps they will
help establish the credibility of our work with others. ... We
heard from Judy Chiswell today - thanks for turning so many people
on to our work." The letter was dated April 13, 1988, signed
by Cynthia Tenen, Secretary of Meru Foundation. If I did not have
permission to reproduce and distribute their materials, why were
Stan Tenen and Cynthia Tenen, Meru Secretary sending me the material
repeatedly suggesting I share it with others, and THANKING ME
FOR SHARING IT WITH "SO MANY PEOPLE". I never shared
any other materials than were accompanied by this written letter
of permission. This was in addition to dozens of phone calls from
Stan Tenen, encouraging me to copy and send out his material,
with mine. Even though Stan may deny making those phone calls
to me today, this is outweighed by the evidence of so many friends
who supported him and sent him money as a result of my efforts
on his behalf... Mary Emeny in TX, Kirk Van Allyn in Southern
CA, Henry MacLean in Cambridge, Judy Chiswell in CA, and others.
Stan Tenen prepared a video which I paid for production of, to
address the issues which I raised with regard our work. He began
the film stating the production was for me, and ended by thanking
me for the issues I raised, and suggesting I continue. This is
clear evidence that my role at that time was significant, was
of great service to Stan Tenen, and was openly encouraged by him.
I distributed that film to hundreds of my friends, at my cost,
to help further Stan's work for him. This lead directly to the
highly paid speaking engagements which I arranged for Stan Tenen
at Kirk Van Allyn's in Leucadia, and Henry MacLean's in Cambridge.
(Letters attached).
18. Stan only decided he was suing me later, for what he openly
encouraged me to do namely share his original work with my related
original work. He did so only when he observed his error in not
choosing the Golden Mean spiral as the correct origin of self-embeddedness
and symbol. This was an error because the Golden Mean spiral best
makes embeddedness in ALL shapes. As a result it permits symbols
to be literally embedded in the world they represent. Letterforms
made of the Golden Mean physically represent reality as perfect
little data fractal of the forms they point to as symbols. Fractal
data in computers is the only perfectly compressible and shareable
data. Stan Tenen's undefined spiral hand drawings he admits do
not use this critical Golden Mean Spiral to make symbols WORK.
His work is absolutely defective at the heart of the matter, in
this regard.
When I spent two years acheiving a map of that form on the donut,
to produce the first usable computer animation of the alphabet,
Stan quickly decided he was suing me for ever having shared his
work, which was now far overshadowed by my own. My alphabet letters
were an accurate new computer model using the Golden Mean Spiral
to create alphabet, a dramatic advance over Stan Tenen's choice
of what was at that time an undefined
spiral, and not successfully computer modeled. Numerous experts
in various fields have confirmed the dramatic superiority of my
work since the Golden Mean produces self-organizing nestedness
of symbols. The National Psychotronics Associates did so when
they declined Stan Tenen's libel of my work. Professor Louis Kaufman
at University of Chicago Math Dept, did so when he wrote to me
thanking me for my CD, and requesting permission to use my 3D
topo map of Hebrew, even though he previously had Stan Tenen's
work. Other international experts who have confirmed the value
of my work using a computer model instead of hand drawings, and
using the Golden Mean spiral instead of an undefined one, and
using each letter as a "little fractal", over Stan Tenen's
work, include Anders Johansson, Director of Sirius University
in Stockholm, Wil Van Gemert, Director Stardust Learning Center
in Amsterdam, Holland, Vincent Bridges, Anthropologist, Director
5th Way School, Mt Gildead, NC. Letterforms not based on the Golden
Mean spirals do not fit the nest of the tetrahedron as it fits
into icosahedron and dodecahedron. This dodecahedron nest is the
geometry upon which DNA and the Earth's gravity "grid"
is based as a fractal.
19. Grace Engler who knew of Stan Tenen's work long before she
requested me to speak in Yelm WA wrote: "... it is obvious
to us that Mr.Winter has taken whatever you may have shared with
him years ago and gone far beyond it, bringing new understandings
to physics, sacred geometry and consciousness". Vincent Bridges,
Anthopologist and author from North Carolina said, after reviewing
the whole stack of Stan Tenen's claims, that one look at my book
compared to Stan's little pamphlet confirms the greater depth
and significance of my work. He sponsored my lectures in Winston
Salem, his address is PO Box 877, Mt.Gilead, NC 27306.
20. Stan's claim that I did not have permission to share his work
is made completely unbelievable by the large number of people
who will confirm that they provided help and support to Stan Tenen
as a result of receiving his material from me. (Henry MacLean,
Judy Chiswell, Kirk Van Allyn, Mary Emeny, were among those that
I knew of who responded to my requests for help be given to Stan
Tenen, because he specifically thanked me, I'm sure there were
others, because I spent thousands of dollars of my money spreading
Stan Tenen's material for his benefit at his request). Even if
Stan Tenen chooses to lie to the court now that he did not phone
me many times and thank me for sending his material, his phone
bills during that time 1989 to 1991 will show evidence of his
conversations with me, INITIATED BY HIM.
These friends of mine who then contributed to Stan Tenen as a
result of my effort on his behalf, will each individually confirm,
also that Stan Tenen was aware that the reason he received help
from them, was because I included his material with my original
work, mailed out because Stan Tenen requested I do so. Included
with my mailings for Stan Tenen's benefit were a request for monetary
support to be given to Stan Tenen.
21. In 1987 Stan Tenen phoned to thank me for putting a large
section of his material with my original manuscript after as a
result of my doing so, he received a monetary donation from Mary
Emeny , a teacher, PO Box 148, Bushland, TX 79012. Stan Tenen
phoned me again to thank me for sending
out his work, after receiving help as a result of my doing so
from Judy Chiswell, American Film Institute, 2021 North Western
Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027, 310 477 4330.
22. Stan Tenen also knowingly received money help as a result
of my copying and mailing his work at his request, when he spoke
for pay at the conference at Kirk Van Allyn's, 461 Naiad, Leucadia,
CA 92024, 619-753-4641. That conference was arranged primarily
have me speak for 3 days, Stan Tenen was invited & paid to
speak there for an hour, at my request, to illustrate the connection
of his work to my original work, which was the primary subject
of the 3 day conference, attended by approximately 40 people.
While there, Stan Tenen publicly thanked me for distributing his
work and thus connecting him with all my friends there. Among
many witnesses to this included: Shelleah Conitchan, 4139 W. Gail
Dr., Chandler, AZ, 85226, 602-491-5884 and Cheryl Lynn Triplet,
29235 Valley Center Rd #A10G, Valley Center, CA, 92082, 619-749-6449
23. The largest monetary benefit Stan Tenen received specifically
because I mailed out copies of his material with mine, at his
request, was from Henry MacLean, PO Box 381102, (270 Norfolk,
Apt 1A), Cambride, MA, 02238, 617-876-6683. Henry invited Stan
Tenen to speak at his "Timeless Archtecture" conference
in Boston, at my suggestion. A large number of the attendees were
people who learned of Stan Tenen's work because I mailed it to
them, mostly at my expense. Stan Tenen received a large monetary
compensation for that talk which I initiated for him, even though
he took that occasiion to slander and libel my unique work using
the Golden Mean spiral.
24. In summary, Stan Tenen's claim that I did not have permission
to mail out copies of his work is even more unbelievable in light
of the large number of people from whom he accepted help, knowing
that it was a result of my doing so. Stan cannot legally make
money because I copied and mailed his material at my expense,
at his request, and then sue me for doing so.
25. Stan Tenen's claims that I profited from my sharing of his
material is completely contrary to what my wallet evidences. I
literally spent thousands of dollars sharing those early manuscripts
containing a small amount of his work, along with my original
work. In almost every case, I received no money for sending materials.
Now today, after removing all mention of Stan Tenen and all his
material from my book (which I did approximately 4 years ago at
his request), I continue to do the majority of my information
sharing gratis. The conference in Yelm, WA at which Stan Tenen
claims I libeled him (even though the videotapes show no hint
of that), resulted in a specific loss to me of approximately $1500.
This is easily confirmed by reference to its sponsor Grace Engler
in Yelm.
26. My recent trip to Stockholm, while promised at least travel
costs, resulted in my losing $600 in travel cost alone. Confirmation
available from sponsor Andres Johansson, in Stockholm (fax 46
880 5108), who found it humorous that Stan's obviously religiously
motivated attorney accused me of anti-semitism on the phone. I
consider it serious libel.
27. My last years federal tax return shows a detailed (but not
claimed for
credit) loss of over $10000 from my efforts to share materials
on geometry in service to society and schools. Currently my total
endebtedness over $120000 is approximately double of what it was
when I first began preparing my manuscript and sharing information
materials. I have no money in any form.
28. Stan Tenen's claim that I consider Copyright laws childish
are entirely misconstrued and out of context. What I was referring
to him was of my attorney and specialist on copyright law, Gordon
Kinder (Cleveland, OH) at that time writing: "In paragraph
4, page 2, Mr. Tenen exposes the crux of his misconception when
he defines the signature of his personal discovery (the end of
the vortex bends back in the opposite direction of any form of
the Golden Mean spiral) and claims he owns "copyrights"
to it. The idea once discovered is the property of all humanity.
It is only the particular expression of it to which he holds copyrights.
He does not have a copyright in the "discovery", only
in the words and forms which he used to express it". Since
my form was an accurate computer model, and a totally unique form:
the Golden Mean Spiral (which Stan freely admits is different
than his form), Attorney Kinder was making it very clear that
my distribution of my original work was legal. I accepted his
legal advise. I sincerely felt at that time that Mr.Tenen's failure
too understand that one idea didn't give him a broad copyright
to all expressions of that idea, was in fact a childish understanding
of copyright law.
Individual Response to the complaint showing a Stan Tenen drawing
as part of what I distributed to show the relationship to my work:
Every image of Stan Tenen's drawing which I ever shared at Stan
Tenen's request for Stan Tenen's monetary benefit was among others
sent to me by Cynthia Tenen, officer of Meru Foundation, accompanied
by the letter which said "Stan wanted me to send the enclosed
off to you....perhaps they will help establish the credibility
of OUR work with others... thanks for turning so many people on
to OUR work...". I shared the image with others as a direct
result of dozens of phone calls from Stan Tenen encouraging me
to copy and send off his materials with mine, and thanking me
for doing so, as for example when he received money as a direct
result of my doing so, from among others Henry MacLean, Mary Emeny,
and Kirk Van Allyn. The reason Stan Tenen sent the images to me
to share along with my work, for his benefit, was because of the
obvious relationship to my original work on the extended symmetry
of the tetrahedron, my "Star Mother" model and book
he was using in his lab. I removed this and all images and material
stan Tenen sent me from what I shared informally, over four years
ago, when Stan changed his mind about encouraging me to share
his work. He never would have had to tell me then to cease sharing
his work, if indeed he had not encouraged me begin in the first
place. These images do not appear in any material I have shared
since that time, nor do any images generated by Stan Tenen appear
in my book and video and CD (copies attached). I have repeatedly
begged Stan Tenen to pick out ANY image in my book as shared since
that time over four years ago, which belongs to him, so that I
may remove it.
I am most anxious to obey the letter of the law in sharing ONLY
my original material. EACH letter form which I currently share
in my book and visuals is exactly and only generated by my computer
projection of only my original 2 man year project to map the unique,
not accepted by Stan, GOLDEN MEAN spiral, on the donut.
In summary, with this complaint, Stan Tenen, is in fact requesting
that I stop sharing, what I in fact have never shared for over
four years since he changed his mind about requesting my help
in sharing his work with mine. My response is, yes I already did
stop sharing your material Stan Tenen, over four years ago, when
you stopped being grateful for the donations I generated for you.
I challenge MERU foundation or Stan Tenen, to pick out any specific
image or paragraph created by Stan Tenen, in ANY OF THE MATERIAL,
book or video, that I have shared in over four years since he
changed his mind about asking me to share his work to as it related
to mine. Copy of my book "Alphabet of the Heart", and
film "Sacred Geometry" attached. Never have Stan Tenen
et al showed any specific image or sentences in these all of my
currently shared materials, was in ANY WAY GENERATED BY STAN TENEN.
Every letterform, both HEBREW AND ARABIC/ENGLISH in ALL of my
work and current material is only an exact computer plot of only
the same product of my two year matrix algebra topology map project
on my original Golden Mean Spiral idea, mapped on the same kind
of vortex I published in 1984 before hearing of Stan Tenen. Stan
Tenen specifically says that his work is based on something entirely
different, even if he does not define mathematically what shape
his work is based on, like I do.
Stan Tenen et al. have specifically said they have no claim or
objection to the originality of my work which shows the geometric
origin of the English and Arabic Cursive alphabets, based on the
Golden Mean Spirals. Yet my Hebrew letterforms are ONLY DIFFERENT
VIEWPOINTS OF EXACTLY THIS SAME 3D FORM! As a result in effect
what they are claiming is it is illegal for me to print one viewpoint
of my original 2 year sculpture project, while legal to print
another view of the same object. Clearly Stan Tenen et al. are
simply greedy, childish, fearful and confused in their claims.
Since I stopped sharing ALL of Stan Tenen's material over four
years ago when he changed his mind, and decided he was not grateful
for all the support I had generated for him, therefore there was
absolutely no image of his shared at Yelm, WA, as there are none
in my book and videos currently. They are readily available for
inspection.
Response to complaint that I copied Stan Tenen's claim to the
shape of the spiral shape creating Hebrew alphabet.
I have submitted to counsel and to many others copies of the video
tape prepared specifically for Stan Tenen, showing my abolutely
original spreadsheet algebra, using my absolutely original idea
to use the mathematically precise Golden Mean spiral. The video
shows the exact points from the spreadsheet algebra, imported
into the Macintosh Computer Super 3D pro
gram creating the letter shape. From that exact letter shape,
I simple revolve to see the views which create both English and
Hebrew. It is strange that Stan Tenen makes no claim to my original
work creating the English- arabic letterforms, AND YET IT IS EXACTLY
THIS SAME 3D FORM WHICH I SWIVEL TO VIEW THE HEBREW LETTERFORMS.
In effect what Stan Tenen is claiming is that I may look at the
3D form which I derived from pure mathematics from certain viewpoints
which create English. But he is saying that it is illegal for
me to view that same form which I spent years generating by algebra
on data points, from any of its points of view which produce Hebrew.
During all the time I knew Stan Tenen, he never had a algebraic
way of creating the Hebrew letterforms he was hand drawing. As
a result rigorous laboratory usages of his form were very limited.
In my original work, I solved the problem of which spiral to use,
namely the Golden Mean spiral, and created a body of shareable
computer data which other labs could then rigorously use for virtual
reality work etc. This is why Louis Kaufmann, mathematician specifically
wrote to me after seeing both Stan's and my work, requesting to
use my mathematics in his virtual reality computer lab at University
of Chicago.
In all our conversations Stan Tenen insisted the major obstacle
to developing a rigorous model for alphabet was determining which
spiral to use, and how to map it mathematically. Others like Lorin
Kiely and Stephanie Dearborn, were present for these conversations.
I set to work using my knowledge of matrix algebra and topology
to map my antecendent original work on the Golden Mean spiral
3D strip indexing the spin of the unfolding of the tetrahedron.
(My "One Crystal's Dance" book and Star Mother kit I
published before I had ever heard of Stan Tenen.) My choice of
the Golden Mean spiral to index the spin of 3D solids was unlike
anything Stan Tenen had done. My choice to nest the donut on which
I mapped that spiral, one inside the other, to make them fractal
and self-embedded was unlike any Stan Tenen model of letters created
by donuts. When I created the model such that each individual
letterform as infinitely fractal and recursive, so that you zoom
into each letter and see its tail creting its same form over and
over again, this was unlike anything Stan Tenen had ever done.
When Stan Tenen rejected my obviously correct choice to use the
Golden Mean Spiral, I had to review my options carefully. First,
I verified that the Golden Mean spiral best created self-embeddedness
or self-contained-ness or recursion. This was confirmed in the
writings of Louis Kaufmann mathematician, and phycist's Fred Wolf's
book, "Taking the Quantum Leap". This meant that The
Golden Mean spiral was by mathematical definition natures most
perfect way to permit symbols to embed us in our world.
Therefore it felt very important to me to share this now corrected
model of the BEST way to understand how the alphabet was best
self-organized, using the self organizing Golden Mean spiral.
My work "Geometric Keys" antedated my connection to
Stan Tenen, and clearly presented the same pair of Golden Mean
spirals wrapped on a vortex which I had mapped in the unfolding
tetrahedron, already in my 1987 book.
Fortunately I had access at that time to the best legal advice
available, as well. Copyright Law Specialist Attorney Gordon Kinder
from Cleveland wrote to me on 3/20/92:
"In my opinion the campaign of malignment which Mr. Tenen
has undertaken is actionable by you. He has engaged in a course
of libel and slander which seems to me to be unjustified..
In my opinion you are under no legal obligation to cease this
work.. As a philosophical matter, it would seem that the closer
you approach the ultimate truth, the more likely it is to be susceptible
to only one mode of expression...
In my opinion you are under no legal obligation to credit Mr.Tenen
with origination of any of the theories relating to sacred alphabets.
(I had only removed Stan Tenen's name from my book at his insistance
that I do so.) In paragraph 4, page 2, Mr Tenen exposes the crux
of his misconception when he defines the signature of his personal
discovery (he says the end of the vortex bends back in the opposite
direction of any form of the Golden Mean spiral) (again showing
that Stan Tenen's model IS NOT the correct Golden Mean spiral..dew)
and claims he owns 'copyrights' to it. The idea, once discovered
is the property of all humanity, it is only the particular expression
of it to which he owns copyrights. He does not have a copyright
in the "discovery", only in the words and forms he used
to express it.
The balance of the February 18th letter is a clear threat to you
which is to a large degree unfounded. Specifically, it is my view
that uou have an absolute right to continue working with sacred
alphabet.
Re: paragraph 2, you do not need Tenen's authorization to display
Hebrew looking letters generated from vortex forms, unless you
are copying Tenen's expression. (The Golden Mean spiral mathematically
modeled, is clearly NOT Tenen's expression). Further, MERU continues
to insist on a copyright to it's "idea". This concept
is not recognized in the law.."
Being a simple and very law abiding person, I took the advise
of this the best expert I could find, and continued to work on
this form. As a practical matter, the vast majority of the people
who write to me for information and materials which I have informally
published, are not in the least bit interested in the origin of
Hebrew. And furthermore this is a tiny percentage of the information
shared in my materials.
So therfore Stan Tenen's claims that I am making big bucks by
selling his invention are even more ill founded. In any case,
I am happy to submit to the court proof that I am over $40000
further in debt now, than when I first completed this map using
computer topology for letterforms. And further, I am happy to
submit to the court copies of my last years tax return proving
5 figure losses last year alone, in attempting to share this work
(of which again Hebrew is a miniscule part thereof).

re:
Tenen
v.
Winter case NO. C94-934S
6/29/95
I, Dan Winter, was forced to sell my home in June, to pay overwhelming
debt which became totally unsupportable after borrowing around
$17000 for legal bills caused by Stan Tenen's libel of my original
work on the Golden Mean spiral. I am living out of boxes, in space
provided by friends in return for physical labor, here. I do not
have the funds to travel to Buffalo. I learned of the attorneys
request that I be in Buffalo on July 5 only about 1 week ago.
It is not economically possible for me to come.
I enclose new evidence which shows that Stan Tenen is not the
first party to generate Hebrew from an UNDEFINED spiral cast within
a tetrahedron. I, however, am the first party to generate Hebrew
from a MATHEMATICALLY DEFINED spiral within a tetrahedron.
The settlement which Joe Goergen informed me that the Tene's proposed,
is acceptable to me: "joint production of a video tape wherein
your clients 'in a positive fashion' state their point of view,
and my client 'in a positive fashion' would state his point of
view. My client would market the tapee and share profits from
the sale with your client."
I am no longer able to pay counsel for further services: Panara
and Goergen, and beg the courts appreciate to my position of no
funds caused by this libel, which I had informed Magistrate Maxwell
at our last meeting.
Given that it is now clear that generating Hebrew from an undefined
spiral within a tetrahedron is NOT original to Stan Tenen, I humbly
beg the court to dismiss this matter.
