Discussion
All of this hopefully provides a coherent geometrical picture of the electromagnetic field as a "twist/turn" field. Charged particles can be likened to doubly-spinning rotors which move both linearly and rotationally, because they curve or curl the surrounding space, interacting with other charged particles. This then presents an interesting conceptualization of the electromagnetic wave and hopefully takes us to some interesting places.
I'll leave it at that for now. let me know what you think.
