This is actually very interesting, however my only problem with it is that 360 degrees to a circle is relatively arbitrary and I'm pretty sure it's built on the babylonian base 6/12 system (same for our clocks I think). Did you come up with this?
gpt
you can use 365 too.
nice thing about the circle.

Would you say language precedes geometry/mathematics or vice versa?
gpt
wow. that is a good question
thought about this for a while actually and asked a few other the same.
the sequence at this time is:
shape / geometry comes first.
then number
followed by letter

the need for counting is much easier to resolve then the need for other communication.

If one were to lose his capacity for language entirely, how would he see the world? A conglomerate blur of color or still as a set of objects with depth and definition? If a baby were capable of raising itself entirely (stupid hypothetical, I know) would it form language at all? Our functioning in the world requires varied levels of abstraction, climbing up and down the ladder connecting the physical to the ethereal, but always caught in between. I had developed a loose theory on this a couple weeks ago but have since moved to some other obsession, but this is starting to suck me back in
gpt
as if at some point a choice was made to pursue the path of abstractions instead.
which begs the question, what was the other choice / path?

very curious thank you for sharing that. it is sure to open a few doors.
