a thing in 35 photos in 2015 sacred geometry showing 2015 only · show all years Out of two becomes three. Spent the afternoon playing around my ruler and compass learning about how two overlapping circles (two) allows you to draw a perfect equilateral triangle in the resulting vesica pisces . More dewdlin. Spent the evening drawing. Doing my best to figure out how to reproduce this neato design with ruler and compass. Spent Friday morning reading a book on sacred geometry and using a compass and square to draw a pentagon. It's something that looks so simple, but it's WAY MORE COMPLICATED that you'd ever imagine. Putting the phi in five. Cool geometry art all over it. Ta-da! All finished! Came out decent! First 4 of 19 circles! Isotropic Vector Matrix Oh, you know. Egyptology and vector equilibrium videos all night, errrnight. Washed down the cheesy excellence with some mind-bending math talks from Michael Schneider, author of the wonderful book, A Beginner's Guide to Constructing the Universe ...and assembling the five platonic solids ! You know, listening to podcasts... ...and see where the vertices lead you! Fun to just keep adding sticks to the balls... Fun to have a way to take my 2D drawings and try to figure out the 3-dimensional objects they are projections of! The Flower of Life is a lot more than a neato design. It hints at the underlying structure of Plank space ! ...is a hypercube. A tesseract... Very cool modeling kit that lets you make all sorts of crystalline structures that appear in nature. And a giant set of ZomeTools. Got some fun geometry toys. Fractiles magnets... Did you know that the diatonic Western music scale comes from fractions ? Ice crystal! Orthographic projection of a tesseract (hyper-cube) Spent Sunday morning watching geometry videos... ...and drawing some of my faves. VIDEO
