MATHEMATICS_IS THE LANGUAGE OF_NATURE

“Maths Dreamed Universe” is a quantitative visualisation of the manner within which elemental forms in nature order themselves. The graphmaps numbers 0 to 100,001 arranged in a logarithmic spiral. The spiral reveals the visual relationships of elemental numbers and the aesthetic beauty of mathematical equations.

“The project reflects the contemporary interest in the intersection of science and art – in particular the use of scientific methods to inform art practice. The primary motivation for creating the poster was to visualize the crossover of pure math with graphic aestheticism. The appreciation of what may be termed ‘purely aesthetic forms’ has a long tradition in art and design, but ornamentation is often derided as being little more than a fancy. But what if aesthetic appreciation was functional? What if beauty communicates and is thus open to analytical investigation?”
