The GEODODECAGON is a geometric conceptual model that defines genius not as a single ability, score, or talent, but as an integrated system of twelve distinct intelligences. The model is represented as a regular dodecagon (a twelve-sided polygon), where each vertex represents a unique and independent type of intelligence. All vertices are equal in position and importance, emphasizing that genius does not arise from hierarchy, but from balance and interaction.

At the center of the Geododecagon appears the term GENIUS. The center does not represent an additional intelligence; rather, it symbolizes the emergent state created when all twelve intelligences operate together in coordination. Genius, according to this model, is the result of systemic integration rather than dominance of any single cognitive function.

The twelve intelligences represented in the Geododecagon are:

Cognitive Intelligence – analytical thinking, reasoning, understanding, and information processing

Meta-Cognitive Intelligence – awareness, monitoring, and regulation of one’s own thinking processes

Creative Intelligence – generation of novel ideas, original connections, and innovation

Intuitive Intelligence – rapid, non-conscious pattern recognition and insight

Perceptual / Sensory Intelligence – accurate perception and interpretation of sensory information

Physical / Bodily Intelligence – bodily control, coordination, and embodied awareness

Practical Intelligence – effective application of knowledge to real-world situations

Adaptive Intelligence – flexibility, learning from change, and adjustment to new environments

Social Intelligence – understanding social systems, dynamics, and interpersonal interactions

Emotional Intelligence – recognizing, processing, and regulating emotions

Self Intelligence – self-awareness, identity, introspection, and inner coherence

Moral Intelligence – ethical judgment, values, responsibility, and conscience

The connecting lines between the vertices represent functional relationships and mutual influence between intelligences. Neighboring intelligences naturally reinforce one another, while distant ones create balance and counter-tension. Any strengthening, weakening, or imbalance in one intelligence affects the structure of the entire system.

The core message of the Geododecagon is that genius is not measurable by IQ alone, nor limited to intellectual performance. Genius is the capacity to harmonize emotional, social, ethical, practical, perceptual, physical, and reflective intelligences into a coherent whole.

Genius is not a trait. Genius is a system.
