sure thing MphLee
regarding:
"I just have the feeling that is a way to "draw" very big numbers , right?"

yes that's a good summary of the idea
They are strange things because they are about information pathways
that exist in big and complicated numbers
These numbers have a main starting position
and ending position, and to notice these positions
you need first to recognise the folding pattern being used.
The "default" folding pattern I use is start at bottom right
then Fold to the Left, then Fold in the Up direction
This is Fold_LU and there are 8 possible folding patterns.
Noticing the way the folding pattern actually works
has a subtle
aspect, the first fold up looks as though
it is folding down but this is only to obtain the so called
seed value to start the upwards direction.
Likewise, the next Fold Left requires a brief shift
to the Right to pick up the next seed value
before pushing to the Left direction, and so on and so forth.
You can imagine the process as being one of "transference".
You study the symbol representation of the formulae
and notice the symbols or glyphs in the formulae
have a regular pattern, again relative to a folding pattern.
