To better understand growth, biology, life, composition, and energy — perhaps we should study fractals, science, math, and physics.
What’s a fractal?
Fractal: self-similar biological growth pattern. Or the idea that the parts are similar to the whole.
Mathematical proportions
Balanced yet asymmetric
The ultimate dynamic form:
Understandable yet infinitely mysterious
The math of beauty
Zeno’s Paradox
No matter how much you zoom into a fractal, it will always look like itself (at different magnifications). The notion of “self similarity”.
For example if you look at a rugged mountain range from an airplane looking down, it will look very similar to a rock on the mountain range zoomed in 1000x.
It’s turtles all the way down.
In pop culture:
- To continually “enhance”any image, it will kind of look the same at all magnifications.
- “Inception”
- Russian dolls (recursion — smaller dolls fit within bigger dolls).
