Immanentizing the Eschaton 
      and 
Colorizing the Superlines

The above phrase "immanentizing the eschaton," from 
The Illuminatus! Trilogy , might occur to some viewers
of Josefine Lyche's current Geometric Utopias  art exhibit.

Some less esoteric geometry . . .

Cayley superline  of the Klein quadric in PG(5,2)
is actually a plane of the quadric.  Any such plane can be
pictured as a set of seven partitions of an 8-set into four 2-sets,
with the partitions satisfying certain geometric conditions.
A prototypical example of such a set: the four-colored bricks 
numbered 1 through 7 at left in the picture below.

The colored bricks above are from the four-color decomposition theorem .
