The Fibonacci sequence is a good startin...Deborah,<br /><br />The Fibonacci sequence is a good starting point. The diagram of the golden section on its own has no scale and is predictable in its growth pattern. You may wish to explore this characteristic further by testing variations of the Fibonacci sequence.<br /><br />To start off you may consider drawing the golden section with arcs inscribed in rectangles. Follow the ratio to grow the diagram. It will begin to create a spiral. Think of ways you can combine these patterns. What happens when curves begin to intersect each other? If you are able to use associative modeling software (i.e. grasshopper) consider setting up a definition which will allow you to grow these patters.<br /><br />Attempt to interpret the patterns at different scales. It will be helpful to step away from the literal representation of the diagram. You may explore its potential for example as surfaces, volumes and solids.<br /><br />Think about how do you define the edges of the patterns? Is there a boundary?Yevgeniyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04347153684544805554noreply@blogger.com
