I think this is enough information that one needs to build a DNA double helix Rodin coil. Let me know if you do and what experiments you do. I will suggest some experiments later but for now you are on your own, exploring the unknown where the credentialed fear to tread. BTW – Hey Marco Rodin, come on man, I have been trying to contact you to no avail. Feds got you or something? 
@oxiigen Marko, Marco… Alas the phoneme is interchangeable but the sound is the same, guess it’s the Italian in me. Yeah, original thinking is a curse, I know that is a fact , resentless minds to collaborate an idea are few and far between but the good thing is youtube serves as a concentrator of the curious. Because of it youtube may unwittingly save the world, or far worse. As for Alex Petty take on DNA as a computational machine, well, look closely at galaxies and consider the hidden Id.
Really interesting thinking! Google “Alex Petty” and his “Consciousness Modeled Computational Paradigm” theory. This might interest you.. & btw, he’s Marko Rodin, not Marco.. :] Cheers!
@RunAMuckGirl2 Simply glue small studs every 30 degrees along the spirals for wire guides. Wind the calculated length of wire on your treadle, Start at stud 1 on coil A passing it over A across and under B around and up over to A stud 2 and repeat the process along the spirals to the end then back up again until you complete as many winds per your goal.
@patp2 I see the design as as making practical sense, yes. LOL So you *have* knitted one like it? How?
@TheUFOeffect I basing on 30 degree increments here, 12 segments. I am crossing between coils for each wrap and as you follow along the spiral you get an angular offset proportional to the spacing between the coils.
All of these are variables. There is no reason you can’t use any division you wish, you could divide 360/n down to 1 degree for n if you so wished. Depends on how much wire you have on hand I guess.
@RunAMuckGirl2 Well, it’s no more difficult than knitting. As for practicality I suggest you look into the structure of DNA itself and see if any bells ring for you. For instance the diaphase structure allows for a huge number of harmonic inter-phases such that the modulus of life itself can be expressed. You might find the duality of certain geometries of use in understanding why the DNA Rodin coil is far more than practical.
Pat have you tried to wrap this design? I see your thinking about the energy flow but the practicalities of winding it I can’t see. Doesn’t mean it can’t be done, I just don’t see how.
SO your still moving over “5 pins” each time you just going down a few tings. Is teh start to finish of 1 coil = to 1 winding of the rodin coil, 12 turns, or is it more or less.
