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.
Lol I've always wondered about that, when I hear or see a complicated explanation about a piece of art. I'm always thinking, " Ok, but was that the artist's plan, or are you just making up random things?"
I think that's something about artists - they do things intuitively that we analytical types wonder, "How in the world did they come up with that, and how does it just work?!"
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.

Fibonacci’s name was Leonardo Bonacci. Fibonacci is short for filius Bonacci ('son of Bonacci'). The other name “Leonardo Bigollo Pisano” means “Leonardo the Traveller from Pisa.”
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. Curiouser and curiouser....
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.
I'm British, my other half is from IN. We've never had an argument like the opening of this video because our language barrier is too great to allow for that kind of coherence.

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!
@@DrewLSsix Actually, that guy you're referring to called it "aluminum" and then later changed to "aluminium". It's not quite so clear as people want it to be. Regardless, "aluminum" and "aluminium" are different words for the same substance. One is not a misspelling or mispronunciation of the other. If you read "aluminum" as "aluminium", you're wrong. If you read "aluminium" as "aluminum", you're wrong. (You wouldn't consider it correct if someone read "steam" as "marshmallow". That's basically the same thing except that "aluminium" and "aluminum" happen to be much more similar in spelling.) If you call the metal "aluminium", you're not wrong. If you call the metal "aluminum", you're not wrong. Both words refer to the same thing. There is, however, guidance among various professional bodies that "aluminium" should be preferred. Yes, even in North America. It just isn't catching on, particularly fast in general usage.

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. Amazing, isn't it? ;-)

Yes! I've always thought it was total bull, finally someone else gets it. People would show a picture of that spiral on top of random things and say "Look! It fits!" And I'd be like "no it really doesn't?" Like the Parthenon. You stretched it to fit the width, and nothing else actually "lines up" for me
I'm german and pronouncing it without the additional i feels just wrong. That said - looking at the history of the element and the naming rules, the Americans seem to be correct this time.
I love this. the video I watched right before this one was on the topic of math, presented by British guy. he kept saying "maths" and my Canadian self starter rolling the word over and over in my head. next video, Joe starts talking about math/maths and the Bader meinhoff syndrome. perfect.

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. :)
I called my dog Kryten... he survived 12 years without meeting another kryten... so, yeah, i chose wisely. For those wondering, yes i’m a red dwarf fan.
I thought at first you where referencing Farscape but that's spelled differently, and the obvious character from Farscape to name a dog after is Rigel.
I have that book. Was one of the required for my visual arts class, along with Imaging and Perception. I sometimes use the 'golden ratio' in my photography just as a compositional tool like the rule of thirds and other composition techniques.
The fibonacci sequence doesn't define a spiral, it's a series of 90⁰ radii based on a square of an increasing or decreasing size. However if you create a right triangle based on the golden ratio where the length and height is developed on the hypotenuse of the previous triangle. Both are almost identical, one is not a spiral the other is defined as a nurbs curve. Nurbs- non-uniform rationale B-spline.
Ive been going bin diving for many years, and we've often found that we can 'manifest' what we would find in the bin. Like "i fancy some mango juice" and sure enough, there would be some mango juice.

bjr1822 scientists love classification, however having an equally negative opinion in opposition to the convention makes you just as bad The whole world needs to chill and practice some deep breathing. You aren’t better or worse for how you pronounce aluminum and neither is anybody else
In artschool we used the golden ratio as a help for composition. And we used it completely different than most believe (I guess). It wasn't just putting it over a picture and following the curve (or whatever people believe). Our teacher even explained how this got no other use and other composition techniques might work as well.
I find these fascinating. It's like a chicken and the egg situation. Very similar to Zipf's Constant or Zipf's Law. When I learned about that one it blew my mind so much it's now my handle on several of the soch meeds. Great video Joe. Your "British" accent(s) made my day.
As a British viewer, I enjoyed the intro immensely. Slipping from toff RP into a passable, slightly esturial accent as he got annoyed was very funny. Bravo
The Parthenon has a lot of non-strait lines because it takes into consideration the perspective of the viewer. And there are some more mundane things like making sure water runs off the surfaces...

It looks at a derived Fibonacci sequence that has a surprising special relationship with the Eye of God.
Check it out and Enjoy!

Highly unlikely things happen on a daily basis. Much more unlikely things have happened to people. There was a ships cat that survived the sinking of the Bismarck, was then adopted by the British and survived a the sinking of an aircraft carrier that had been involved in sinking her original ship and then survived a third sinking when the rescue ship a British destroyer was torpedoed by Germans, the cat retired to British Admiralty offices. Being a stray first found on the streets of some German city in the late 30's, what where the odds of that cat ending up sleeping on the desk of the British admiral in charge of defeating the nation in which it was born? Probably one in a hundred billion. Still happened. Also people have won the lottery multiple times (lucky bastards, stop buying tickets if you already won goddammit.).

Now I’d love to know the reason why every time someone has commented a quote from a video I’m watching, I read the comment _exactly_ when the quote happens in the video. Just a coincidence most likely but it happens so often it surprises me.

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.)

Yes! I've always thought it was total bull, finally someone else gets it. People would show a picture of that spiral on top of random things and say "Look! It fits!" And I'd be like "no it really doesn't?" Like the Parthenon. You stretched it to fit the width, and nothing else actually "lines up" for me
The Lord works in delirious ways.
Exactly how I see it. I see a picture with a spiral over it, and the spiral has no connection to the picture
"Aluminum" looool instant trigger!

I'm from the UK and now I make myself unpopular by telling people the US ;version' is actually the correct one (and it is).

In Ireland we don't say "Math" or "Maths", we say "Mats".
And where I grew up its maffs. An abbreviation of mafferma-ics where I use "-" to indicate a glo-al stop. I thing most Americans say mathemadics. To be pondered over a pint of ordinary.
I was thinking the very same thing !! lol
Yeah, but the one Americanism we do say is "soccer" because we have our own version of "football".

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. :)

@The Curious Mind There must have been a meeting we missed. :)
I have that book. Was one of the required for my visual arts class, along with Imaging and Perception. I sometimes use the 'golden ratio' in my photography just as a compositional tool like the rule of thirds and other composition techniques.

Dear Joe,
Thanks for the memories.
Really, you are making a difference.
The fibonacci sequence doesn't define a spiral, it's a series of 90⁰ radii based on a square of an increasing or decreasing size. However if you create a right triangle based on the golden ratio where the length and height is developed on the hypotenuse of the previous triangle. Both are almost identical, one is not a spiral the other is defined as a nurbs curve. Nurbs- non-uniform rationale B-spline.
Oh my goddd, when he said "aluminum", I died busting out laughing. That was by far my favourite vid intro yet lol
Ive been going bin diving for many years, and we've often found that we can 'manifest' what we would find in the bin. Like "i fancy some mango juice" and sure enough, there would be some mango juice. The local bin hasnt been that great recently, so this evening i thought about manifesting a good selection, and there was a good selection!! When i came home again, i got comfortable in bed and put youtube on, now this is the first video that popped up. The baader meinhof phenomenon?

ALUMINIUM! it ends in 'IUM' like all the majority of bloody elements. As a Brit in North America, I approve of this intro. Send tea.

What's wrong with aluminum? It's one of my favorite elements next to titanum, iridum and helum.
So... there is a rule that all elements have to end in "ium"? Where is that? Shall I start the extremely extensive list of elements that DON'T follow that rule? Such a dumb argument.
Cos us English pronounce it Al-i-min-i-um

finally, a JoJo's reference
In artschool we used the golden ratio as a help for composition. And we used it completely different than most believe (I guess). It wasn't just putting it over a picture and following the curve (or whatever people believe). Our teacher even explained how this got no other use and other composition techniques might work as well.
Nature is a mathematician, fractals and the golden ratio, there's a comforting beautiful to be found in it all.
Comforting beautiful... I mean, it made me laugh. Thanks, beautifully goofy :3
I'm kind of reminded of the character Sigma from Overwatch aha, that is exactly like something he would say

I find these fascinating. It's like a chicken and the egg situation. Very similar to Zipf's Constant or Zipf's Law. When I learned about that one it blew my mind so much it's now my handle on several of the soch meeds. Great video Joe. Your "British" accent(s) made my day.
Yeah, 80/20...
As a British viewer, I enjoyed the intro immensely. Slipping from toff RP into a passable, slightly esturial accent as he got annoyed was very funny. Bravo
The Parthenon has a lot of non-strait lines because it takes into consideration the perspective of the viewer. And there are some more mundane things like making sure water runs off the surfaces...

for whatever reason, everything moves in a spiral motion in the universe. If there was a shape that was the most natural and most efficient, what would it be and would it not be common? therefore it makes complete sense that we would see the spiral everywhere. it is the most organic shape
