manual

The project presents an instruction manual that uses mathematical graphics to guide users in constructing their beliefs, linking identity and time. Its main goal is to achieve happiness through belief, using mathematics as a language and guide.

It originates from a reflection on the connection between beliefs, identity, and mathematics and is inspired by historical figures like Pythagoras, Plato, Descartes, Newton, Leibniz, and Stephen Hawking, who linked mathematics to the divine. Galileo Galilei's idea that "the universe is written in the language of mathematics" is also referenced.

The manual resembles assembly instructions from companies like IKEA and JYSK and includes elements such as self-awareness, connection, doubt, confidence, faith, and curiosity, represented through mathematical graphics generated with Python and Matplotlib.

It consists of 10 stages that guide users through the process of constructing beliefs, from birth to unity: recognizing one's pieces, identifying doubt, seeking answers, accepting emptiness, building a symbol, assembling, verifying the structure, recognizing wholeness, keeping it alive, and dwelling in the sphere.

There are plans to expand the graphics and develop an interactive version of the manual. A curious event during the project was the discovery of several Bibles with a dedication related to the concept of instruction, unintentionally aligning with the project’s theme.
