Absolutely amazing how lines which seem to be randomly placed on top of computer graphics are in some ratio indeed.

The concept is really hard to grasp without knowing a bit of algebra. The idea is that the art itself doesnt have a perfect balance on both ends, but a bit more on 1 side. For example from the tail of the drone to its mid body or wings are slightly larger than the mid body or wings to its mouth. [image loading]

Loving the topic. A few seems a bit far fetched though?

I don't get it. You can split a picture into 2 parts with 'something more' and 'something less' so it's mathematics?

It's a very specific ratio

Correct. The shuttle offends me most.

Which is not to say it isn't cool, I just feel like there's a bit of confirmation bias going on.

A bit of confirmation bias? This is like 100% pareidolia. Look at screenshots of a random, shitty game and you will 'find' the ratio everywhere. Why?

Lack of rigor. You aren't doing math, you are drawing boxes around things that (vaguely) approximate the golden ratio. Which BTW is NOT a difficult concept to grasp. It's the kind of thing that gets kids interested in mathematics.

The bit about the brain being able to grasp an image/be more attracted to the golden ratio has been debunked as well.

A: we have no fucking CLUE about how our brain works,
B: a normal person only uses like 10% of their brain compacity so maby it DOES help if the person has a higher use of its compacity
the power of an outside source is that it comes from the inside. sabas[aov] c-/c toss
