In two different shots of the MMT film we see two instances of the spiral displayed.
1.} On the drum kit itself that reads Love The 3 Beatles.
2.}And during the Your Mother Should Know segment as The Beatles descend the Spiral/Winding staircase.
In this instance I think both symbols here represent the slow reveal of things that are hidden.
In this case...Paul's death.
In the MMT film we have the Beatles {4 Angels} descending the spiral staircase {of heaven/higher consciousness} to share the hidden knowledge of Paul's passing away with mankind
{The Fans/lower consciousness who are unaware of the whole of reality}}. The Beatles dance in celebration of Paul's memory and what he gave the world through his presence and music
{Non- discursive symbolism is found in the art forms such as painting, sculpture, music, and dance}...it is also an act of mourning. This is indicated through Faul's Black carnation
and being handed dead flowers by the little girl {who represents a symbol of naivety and idealism}.
On the MMT drumskin at the bottom of the image we have the image of a spiral releasing some type of liquid which in my interpretation is the release of hidden knowledge or information...
again in this case related to the passing of Paul.
More Info On The Spiral/Winding Staircase
Symbolically, a staircase often holds significant meaning. In dream analysis, staircases often suggest a journey. If one ascends the stairs that journey is probably positive, hopeful, or purposeful;
however, if one descends the stairs that journey might be negative, confusing, or depressing. Moreover, the type of staircase is also important to its symbolic meaning. A traditional staircase is
straightforward and suggests an uncomplicated route. Conversely, a spiral, twisted staircase may suggest mystery and disorientation. Lastly, staircases can also be looked at as a link. Literally,
a staircase connects two floors. Figuratively, and more vaguely, a staircase is simply a passageway which can unite any two things, places, ideas, or states of being.
Staircases are a frequently used symbol in art, specifically cinema. Narrative film has used the symbolic staircase from its birth, and some of the most famous film scenes are set around or on a set of stairs.
Winding or spiraling staircases or ladders are also believed to be used by angels to ascend or descend the heavenly realms in order to bring mankind messages from God or to accomplish some mission on His/Her behalf.
More Spiral Info
Spirals are some of the oldest geometric shapes in ancient artwork dating back at least to the Neolithic period. Some of the most famous ancient spirals are at Newgrange in Ireland.
Because of its connection with mother goddesses, the spiral is a very feminine symbol, representing not only women but also a variety of things traditionally associated with women.
Besides lifecycles, fertility and childbirth, the spiral can reference intuition and other more internal concepts associated with women.
Moreover, ancient people were acutely aware of cyclical forces of nature: monthly lunar patterns, yearly solar and seasonal patterns, which in turn affect yearly patterns in plant growth
and animal husbandry.
It has been suggested that at least some of the ancient spirals represent the sun, so it is sometimes described as a solar symbol. However, solar symbols are strongly male-oriented,
so its use in modern beliefs is limited.
Spiral of the Cosmos
Even ancient people could recognize that the stars overhead spun around a central point every night, and today we know we reside within a spiral galaxy.
Thus, the spiral can be a symbol of the universe and our place within it and of the great cycles that constantly advance within this universe.
Certain spirals such as those reflecting the golden ratio (1: 1.618) or the Fibonacci sequence reflect certain mathematical truths. As such, some find those spirals to have particular value and meaning.
Symbol of Change
Life cycles and cycles of the natural world create change. The old dies away so the new can come forth. Each of us progresses from child to adult to old age. As such, the spiral is not a symbol
of stagnation but rather of change, progression, and development. It embraces these things as good and healthy and helps one to accept change eve though we often are more comfortable
retreating into tradition and old, standard ways.
Spirals are sometimes seen as watery symbols.
Water is mutable, always changing and not having permanence. It also ripples in circles. Finally, water is a feminine element along with earth. (In comparison, fire and air are masculine elements.)
Symbol of Quintessence
Western system of five elements is composed of earth, water, air, fire, and quintessence. Quintessence literally means "fifth element." {fifth Beatle Billy?} Some people refer to this element as spirit.
There is no standard symbol for spirit. Circles are probably the most commonly used symbol for it, but spirals are also sometimes utilized.
More about these symbols can be found...and it's all quite interesting.
