Nov 5, 2019 at 18:25 comment added Eodnhoj7 Take for example the number line. 1 occurs as the projection from one point to another. One zero to another zero, thus by all means is circular as the ends is then same as the origin. The same occurs for the progression. 1 to 1 is 2, 2 to 1 is 3, 3 to 1 is 4...etc. The number lines is a spiral form of one cycling through itself. So even basic counting requires spatial awareness and form. Add in the fact that we count forms, which are various loops, and counting is a looping between observing and object,and we are left with geometric forms being inseperable from actions (counting) as well.
Nov 5, 2019 at 18:20 comment added Eodnhoj7 @Conidold, you would then have to argue what we develop these abstractions from. If you say physical phenomenon, then you have to clarify why an abstraction such as the number 1 equates to an infinite variety of physical phenomenon. Considering we quantify forms, as premised by the number line as the most basic form, and this quantification extends to all further empirical forms...well we are left with forms as a constant. Numbers exists because we count, but we count only forms, thus number and form are inseperable, which came first is irrelevant considering they mimic eachother.
