Abstract.
This paper makes a holistic move in addressing the Matrix potential for
examining word/meaning relationships so essential to effective communication
and to all related thinking processes. It displays a complete set
of dominant paradigms covering the whole Matrix landscape. The Matrix,
a conceptual framework which integrates the four elements feel/think/act/time
into a single holistic landscape of values and entities, provides the all
inclusive background which the set of displayed paradigms fully covers.
The word paradigm
captures the need to retain appropriate flexibility in dealing with word/meaning
relationships. The definition, etymology as well as the current usage
of paradigm provide some protection against a partial, biased, non-holistic
interpretation of key words. The Matrix expression for paradigms is a radical
with zero fractal which combines identity with flexibility.
Each of the selected
paradigms represents a basic key word or entity. The complete paradigm
set is grouped in 5 visual displays which both separate the structural
Matrix components and dovetail into each other. The main focus is visualisation
and completeness.
Visual displays offer
a very valuable methodology for presenting ideas and concepts which can
influence ways of thinking. They operate in line with the well established
notion that seeing is believing, adding that visual exposure will always
give common sense a better chance to prevail. Apart from visual displays
for the main title, a number of supportive displays are given illustrating
the pattern configuration of Matrix projections and their ability to identify
and separate values by polarity, thereby enhancing and promoting positive
choices. In this regard, the holistic approach is seen as a mathematical
enhancer leading to valuable breakthroughs.
1. Introduction
This paper takes another step in exploring the Matrix potential for examining word/meaning relationships so essential to effective communication and to all related thinking processes. It considers a complete set of dominant paradigms covering the whole Matrix landscape.2. The holistic frameworkThe selected paradigms represent basic key entities. The complete set is grouped in 5 visual displays which both separate the structural Matrix components and dovetail into each other. Visualisation and completeness are the main focus.
Additional visual displays are included to further demonstrate the useful and coherent power of separation between and within various key entities when projected on the Matrix landscape.
The Matrix provides the conceptual framework within which all concepts and entities are projected. It is a framework which integrates the four elements feel/think/act/time into a single holistic landscape of values and entities, allowing visualisation of conceptual notions and relationships graphically and numerically. Of modular construct with decimal continuity, it forms a universal framework accommodating conceptual totality and functional flexibility.3.

2.1 Matrix expressions
They are numerical codes allocated to concepts and entities, in accordance with perception, to achieve the best fit on the Matrix landscape.
The decimal point in the expression separates the “Radical” on its left which is the selected starting position, from the “Fractal” on its right which is the decimal emphasis representing the direction of change.
For example, leadership (59.86) and consensus (59.75) share the radical 59 (choice/optimisation) but differ in the decimal emphasis, 86 (design) and 75 (reason) respectively.
The determination of a Matrix expression relating to an entity gets its validation from tests of perception (25.45), equivalence (55.383/55.386) and coherence (49.55). For this reason, the Matrix expressions presented in this paper should be considered as a first draft, open to and inviting debate.
The word paradigm is chosen because it seems to capture the need to retain appropriate flexibility in dealing with word/meaning relationships. The definition and etymology of paradigm include the words: example, pattern, underlying, inflexion, for and against. Its current usage appears to provide some protection against a partial, biased, non-holistic interpretation of key words.4. The Square and the CircleThe Matrix expression for paradigms is a radical with zero fractal. It combines identity with flexibility. When fractals are added to the paradigms, new entities are formed with new identity at further levels of complexity.

99.0 VisionThis display conveniently tabulates all the Matrix Dominant Paradigms. It groups and relates at a glance the Paradigms for all the Tiers and Stages.
On the Matrix, the circle inscribed in a square shares its centre and the equivalence potential attached to it. Viewed from this central point , the circle is the Observer's "local horizon".5. The arrow of time
One element of basic import when considering equivalence is the direction (or arrow) of time. For instance regression (51.0) refers to a perception of moving back in time while elsewhere the time flows on.6. Visual Displays (All displays can be accessed at the Web site given in Section 2)Polarity, the notion of perceived positive and negative, is obviously linked (among other factors) to the direction of time flow. The more complicated the situation, the higher the potential for controversy about the sign of polarity in that particular situation..

The 90 paradigms presented as providing a full coverage of the Matrix are qualified as dominant. They form a holistic set of basic entities defined by perception, which recognise polarity, equivalence and coherence. These entities combine with each other to form further entities captured by more complex Matrix expressions containing radicals and fractals.8. ReferencesThe object of this tooling up is the convenience of a universal short hand to communicate objectively across cultural groupings without the word/meaning relationships causing hindrance but rather promoting enhancement to the thought processes and the problem solving optimisation.
The visual displays provided also facilitate open debate about universal values at the value level. The very wide acceptance of value levels confirms that polarity is a fact of life. Thinking must be encouraged into rejecting regressive modes and engaging in progressive pathways. This is not a new thought but well worth remembering at the start of the new Millennium.
Finally it is felt that the holistic approach is a mathematical enhancer leading to valuable breakthroughs . It helps provide not only windows of opportunity but also gates of delivery – hopefully for the benefit of all mankind.
