"Figuration can be one of the values or qualities that the Divine Artificer uses to decorate or adorn the invisible first principles of the creation (the word kosmos for 'universe' means 'adornment'). Thus arithmetic and geometric figuration, with the resultant harmonic (musical) figurations, are the most essential tools that Plato posits the Divine Craftsman uses to adorn the 'likeness' of the perfect cosmos, which he is attempting to delineate is the psycho-cosmogony of the Timeaus."
