  With the idea to find geometric formulations of particle physics we
investigate the predictions of a three dimensional generalisation of the
Sine-Gordon model, very close to the Skyrme model and to the Wu-Yang
description of Dirac monopoles. With three rotational degrees of freedom of
spatial Dreibeins we formulate a Lagrangian and confront the predictions to
electromagnetic phenomena. Stable solitonic excitations we compare with the
lightest fundamental electric charges, electrons and positrons. Two Goldstone
bosons we relate to the properties of photons. These particles are
characterised by three topological quantum numbers, which we compare to charge,
spin and photon number. Finally we conjecture some ideas for further
comparisons with experiments.
