    The Golden Ratio is a mathematical construct that has been observed all throughout nature, architecture, and art. And some think it's a universal constant, and divine. But... is it? Or are we only seeing what we want to see?

    Hi Joe. I am an artist and illustrator. I do this for over 40 years now. Me and my colleagues always joked about this - because we know how many classical artists just create, out of their stomache so to say, and then critics or art-sellers come up with weird explanation about why which color was used and why that perspective and yes, always looking for the Golden Ratio to explain things even the artist did not know. It's ridiculous. But obviously overexplaining things helps sell them.

      It's in the musical scale too. The Perfect 5th. We even say Phi in Five like Phive. The significance of this is the fact the Perfect 5th is the dominant note of the whole scale. It's the second most stable next to the root. This is also why we call it a Power Chord. When you hear it you're hearing a mathematical constant. The root and 5th is the foundation for all the most harmonious chords minus diminished chords.

      Oddly enough, the Fibonacci sequence applies when I look for my keys: the catchall in the entry is the first place to look. If I follow the spiral out, the next most likely place is by the lamp next to my chair. Continuing the spiral takes me to the desk in the dining room, then the kitchen counter, and finally the bathroom. If I continue to follow the sequence I end up on my neighbor’s porch. He shares his beer with me a lot, so I have once or twice dropped my keys there.

      Have you ever noticed that when you are looking for your keys, you always find that other thing you couldn't find previously? The trick is, if you want to find your keys you need to look for that paper clip you lost a few days ago. you definitely won't be able to find the paper clip but you WILL find your keys because you were not looking for them.

      The aluminum/aluminium thing is one of the mose stupidly pedantic things in the modern english language.
      The man who came up with the first modern process to create a usable metal from alum ore called the resulting material aluminum.
      Traditionally that's the right of the person making the advancement.
      There had been other ideas on this in the past, alumia, alumium, alimum etc.
      But... the only reason british scientists insisted on going for aluminium is because the other metals that were all the rage at the time also shared the 'ium' spelling, titanium, magnesium, gallium etc.
      It's only a matter of time before these madmen start changing other metals to match! Ironium! Tinium! Copperium! Goldium! Its ridiculous I tell you!

      In German Aluminium is abbreviated to Alu quite often e.g. in product names, which happens to be a reduction of nine letters to three which in turn is the closest you can get when you set the remaining part in relation to the spared part. It's even more accurate when you use the AE name Aluminum.

    Loved the intro, speaking as a Brit. The sort of pedantry you've encountered is just a 21st century tribal dance. There's as much variation within British English as there is between American and British. Given that our countries are so far apart and we went our separate ways nearly 250 years ago, its amazing we can converse at all, and the fact that we can do so easily with barely a hiccup over cultural references, shows how close we are as countries. Also I'd like to thank you, we've been locked down for over a month now and your accent took me on a lovely journey across the length and breath of our Island. Next time a Brit picks you up on a minor grammatical point, ask them the correct term for a bread roll, and watch them turn on each other.

      In my family, it would be asking people to explain the difference between a cobbler and a deep-dish pie. "A pie has to have a bottom crust or it's not a pie" meets "a cobbler has a topping, not a crust". My parents would pretend to have a good-natured argument, that almost always turned into them shouting at each other.

      The title is a bit misleading. The conclusion is that the golden ratio is in nature but not as abundant as many may have want to see it. It is still though quite a pervasive constant.
      On a tangent, I actually read the book referenced here over a decade ago, and it is an inspiring read. After completing it, I went on my own exploration on the properties of the number and discovered a novel property of the golden ratio that appeared to be true for which I made a conjecture out of it. The conjecture was later proven true in collaboration with my professor and published. It is called, “Converging on the Eye of God”. It looks at a derived Fibonacci sequence that has a surprising special relationship with the Eye of God.

I had to add some text and therefore I had to move the horizon a little bit down. But I didn't want, because it wasn't so harmonic, as it was before. Subconsciously, I had put the horizon in the Golden Ratio. Another time I needed a little more space in a corner, so I had to move the shelf a little bit aside.

    I love your stuff Joe but I've got beef here.
    I'm finishing my last semester of education before I start student teaching. I'll be teaching art. Although I 100% agree with you that the ratios are a bit wild and loose, they are used everywhere in art. In fact, there has been a bit of an educational resurgence in the past 10 years with golden ratios. No, not all pictures look like spirals. But, what does happen is artists will use ratios to properly give "weight" to an image. For example I draw figures all the time. Often times with nide models present. I cant simply ask a model to fit a ratio. But I can find a good drawing angle that has a nice ratio of weight. And yes, oddly enough the golden ratio is all over our curriculum. So, I think it's more involved in art that you mentioned. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    thx for the zitat from david bohm 8:31 pretty accurate and short way to describe that our mind creates a illusion we call reality to perceive the truth(or just to think) it is kind of hard to explain without going in length, but this is kind of a beauty :)

    I feel so confirmed right now. Back when I was in design-school when I was taught about the golden ratio, that was exactly my thought. I felt if was randomly distributed, though I stayed open to it, because I could be missing the bigger picture. Its nice to see this video so many years later. :)

  • @geotangententanglement8986

    For people, the Golden Ratio uncurls in time/ageing, not space/bodies:
    1) 0-4 months: Newborns;
    2) 4-12 months: Older Babies;
    3) 1-2 years: Younger Toddlers;
    4) 2-3 years: Older Toddlers;
    5) 3-5 years: Young Children;
    6) 5-8 years: Middle Children;
    7) 8-13 years: Older Children/‘Tweens’;
    8) 13-21 years: Teenagers (extended a bit beyond 19);
    9) 21-34 years: Young Adults (with thanks to Ben Elton on ‘The Young Ones’ in 1982!);
    10) 34-55 years: Middle Adults (but note - this is not ‘mid-life’ in this pattern);
    11) 55-89 years: Elders;
    ... and if you reach 90, you effectively ‘cease ageing’...
    ... wherever you shuffle off ‘this mortal coil’ (with thanks to Bill Shakespersons.)
    [with independent thanks too to Prof. Norman Rose who was apparently in Reno when I emailed him on this idea in 2008.]

    It reminds me "The Power of Limits", by György Dóczi. It starts making a lot of sense, buy then I think it becomes a desperate try to prove the theory.
    Which reminds me of that guy who found prophecies in the Bible, and then another guy ran the same software on Pinocchio and also found prophecies.

    "Close only counts in horseshoes & hand grenades"... You're the only person (other than myself) I've heard using (or referring to) that phrase since I left basic training/AIT in 1986 (12B, Ft. Leonard Wood, MO) I heard it the first time when one of my Drill Sgts was hit in the thigh, about a half inch from his testicles, by a bb sized piece of shrapnel while overlooking the grenade course...
