finding
- Bioelectrical disruption produces planaria forming 2-head or 1-head forms at ~70-30 ratio; randomization occurs at population level, but each worm makes unified decision across all tissues.

- Ninth invariant: each color having a clear, unambiguous presence.
- The paradox that each individual color must shine beautifully in itself, yet this clarity is achieved only through the support of surrounding colors—analogous to strong centers.
- The color property that color pairs (often complementary) interact to generate a flash of light, making each other shine; extends to three or more colors summing to a luminous whole.
- The resting potential across cell membranes; a coarse-grained bioelectrical parameter that encodes pattern information.
- A quality sought in the Great Hall: bright but darkly glowing colors against darkness, achieved through blackish reds and pale sea-green.
- The subtle luminous sensation Alexander reports seeing in things that have life, like a soft light shining from them.
- Alexander's direct experience of the luminous quality in living things.
