Compression is dispersive both laterally and circumferentially, inherently electrostatic because differentiative, divisive, temporary, and local. Tension is omniradially conversive and is both electromagnetically and gravitationally tensive because eternally and integrally comprehensive. Compression tends to local dichotomy and multiplication by separation. Compression is locally expressive in discrete tones and frequencies internal to the octave. Tension is both internal and external to the octave and is harmonic with either the unit octave or octave pluralities.
Compression accumulates potential.
As demonstrated in the arch, compression is limited to absolute, local, and within-law relationships of one fixed system. Tension is comprehensive, attractive, and gravitational. Tension is inherently integral and eternally, invisibly, infinitely comprehensive. Tension is comprehensively without law. Compression tends toward arcs of decreasing radius.
