The Golden Key. Pattern Recognition - Geoff Lawton (2017) Sacred geometry is an ancient art and... - The Sacred Plant. The Flower of Life. The flower of life holds a secret through which one can discover the most important and sacred pattern in the universe. This is the source of all that exists; it’s called the Fruit of Life. It contains 13 informational systems. Each one explains another aspect of reality. Thus these systems are able to give us access to everything ranging from the human body to the galaxies. In the first system, for example, it’s possible to create any molecular structure and any living cellular structure that exists in the universe. If you overlay a map (after getting the correct scale) with the complete flower of life, all sacred sites, standing stones etc, will sit at the centre of six points.

How Physics Gives Structure to Nature

The honeycombs in which they store their amber nectar are marvels of precision engineering, an array of prism-shaped cells with a perfectly hexagonal cross-section. The wax walls are made with a very precise thickness, the cells are gently tilted from the horizontal to prevent the viscous honey from running out, and the entire comb is aligned with the Earth’s magnetic field. Yet this structure is made without any blueprint or foresight, by many bees working simultaneously and somehow coordinating their efforts to avoid mismatched cells. The ancient Greek philosopher Pappus of Alexandria thought that the bees must be endowed with “a certain geometrical forethought.” And who could have given them this wisdom, but God? Why hexagons, though? Gorgeous Macro Photographs of Butterfly and Moth Wings by Linden Gledhill.

A biochemist by training, photographer Linden Gledhill is fascinated by the beauty of infinitesimally small aspects of nature and science, from capturing the flight of insects to exploring the beauty of magnetic ferrofluid.

Gorgeous Macro Photographs of Butterfly and Moth Wings by Linden Gledhill

Among his most jaw-dropping images are macro photographs of butterfly wings that reveal complex patterns that look like perfectly organized flower petals. These tiny protrusions are actually scales, similar to what you would find on reptile, though extremely small and fragile. Gledhill’s photography recently inspired an episode of Smarter Every Day where Destin Sandlin learns how to shoot similar photos.

Bagworm moth larva (Psychidae), all images courtesy of Nicky Bay Bagworm moth larva (Psychidae) Nicky Bay (previously here and here) is the master of capturing the exceptionally small, photographing insects typically passed over without acknowledgement or recognition.

The Singapore-based photographer stays acutely aware of these tiny creatures, using macro photography to highlight each minuscule detail. While taking a closer look at the micro world found deep in the rainforest, Bay began to notice tiny structures built by his favorite subject. The bug buildings appear manmade—tiny log cabins, gates, tents, and fortresses blocking each insect from the world just beyond their carefully placed twigs and segments of silk. Artist Creates Incredible Optical Illusion Fibonacci Sculptures Using A 3D Printer. Source: www.themindunleashed.org | Original Post Date: January 20, 2015 – While most of us think about mathematics as quite an ‘impractical’ science, it seems that almost everything around us is based on mathematical concepts and can be expressed in numbers.

Even the beauty of seemingly amorphous and spontaneous life forms found in nature is actually much more structured and organized than you may think. In fact, amazing geometric patterns that can be observed in certain plants, such as sunflowers, pinecones and artichokes, are determined by the concepts known as Fibonacci Sequence and Golden Ratio. Now, Stanford artist and inventor John Edmark has designed 3D printed spinning sculptures to demonstrate these mathematical concepts in action.

The center and bottom-center images are Desmonema annasethe; the tentacles reminded Haeckel of his late wife's long flowing hair.[1] Kunstformen der Natur (known in English as Art Forms in Nature) is a book of lithographic and halftone prints by German biologist Ernst Haeckel. Publication[edit] A second edition of Kunstformen, containing only 30 prints, was produced in 1924. The Profound Impact Sound, Vibration, and Frequency Have In our Daily Existence. Nikola Tesla once said, “If you want to learn the secrets of the universe, think of energy, frequency, and vibration.”

The Profound Impact Sound, Vibration, and Frequency Have In our Daily Existence

And indeed this is the case. Just lookaround you and realize that what may to our immediate physical senses seem tobe a solid physical reality made of smaller and larger building blocks, isactually a profoundly complex, yet fundamentally simple ocean ofvibration, harmonics, and resonance. 30 Beautiful Photographs of Fractals in Nature.

30 Beautiful Photographs of Fractals in Nature

Most of these 29 patterns are part of a group called “fractals.” You can find them across all sorts of natural phenomena, and you’ve probably held one in your hands before. They’re made from a single shape repeating itself over and over again. Zoom in on a smaller part, and it looks just like the wider view. 1. 2. 3. 03/16 Pattern Application. The Additive Pattern.
