*Correction May 1, 2017: At 2:06, a graphic in the video incorrectly wrote the formula for the golden ratio. It should be B/A = A/(A+B). We regret the error.
John Edmark's sculptures are both mesmerizing and mathematical. Using meticulously crafted platforms, patterns, and layers, Edmark's art explores the seemingly magical properties that are present in spiral geometries. In his most recent body of work, Edmark creates a series of animating “blooms” that endlessly unfold and animate as they spin beneath a strobe light.

that was amazing
Or, to be more precise, it was _fucking_ amazing.
slosher Actually , truly, fucking amazing.
In addition; right-oh, truly, fuckin amazing.
What you seeing here is the beauty of infinitisemal Mathematics in combination with the Fibonacci Numbers. :)
In addition addition super amazing fuckin amazing
"I think my work is successful when it evokes a sense of wonder/magic". You have very much succeeded, sir.
"I think my work is most successful when it evokes a sense of wonder" Well said.
*Fractal animations in real life!* 🤯
You haven't seen what nerds with 3D printers have done. Go use those as search terms. If you liked this you will be blown away by the really cool stuff people make which is more interesting than a golden ratio chest of drawers from the Victorian era :P
@@agnidas5816 Don't mind him. He's just a verified clout chaser, commenting on random youtube videos, looking for people to click on his channel who are curious of his verified icon
@@JTheMelon He's legit a VFX artist. I think he knows what he's talking about.
@@JTheMelon LMAO STFU

Last time a guy got obsessed with spirals, it didn't end well.
Edit: PLEASE, IT'S BEEN 5 YEARS, STOP REPLYING TO THIS! I'M REFERENCING UZUMAKI BY JUNJI ITO, OKAY?!
yeah, i think i know that guy. contorted him own body so he can fit inside a tub, right?
Ever read Uzumaki?
YES OMG FAVORITE MANGA EVER

@@Theguyoverthere603 I came here just to find this comment
you should get in contact with Ikea, I reckon everyone will want some of those around the house!
madcatlad ikea should contact him
Especially for lamps
@Austin Downing nobody asked for your sexist and homophobic opinion
@Austin Downing congrats
Except this isn't original at all and furniture cooler than anything he shows here is already available for sale.
This really looks magical. Thank you for this experience. You definitely achieved your goal of making people wonder what's going on there.
This makes my mind incredibly happy.
I love your work and it’s refreshing to see someone express so artistically subject matter that fascinates me. Thank you.
In that case, I believe that you will like the playlist on logarithmic spirals that I prepared. The first video is just for the joy in the beauty of the logarithmic spirals.
The other one starts easy but then goes deep into the math and the derivation of the equation and the solution of the differential equation inspired by Zeno's Mice problem. Enjoy:

"I am sometimes asked, why am I so intrigued with spirals?"
Oh boy that does NOT sound good when you've just spent your time with Junji Ito's work
Lmao
Came here to leave this comment. Bravo on beating me to it XD
what is the reference here
@@h-Films it's just said on the comment,
@@h-Films Look up the Uzumaki series
I think I've seen some clips of his animated spirals before and automatically assumed they were morphing CGI forms. I had no idea they were static real life objects rotated on a lathe & filmed with a strobe effect. Way cooler!
M. Utley thats what i thought they were until he started explaining the stop motion picture bits.
They should have a room in a museum with these things under strobe lights
@@fryncyaryorvjink2140 No. They should have these under strobe lights in psy trance parties.
@@rickrandom6734 Hell yeah!
@@peteMickeal33 both - the camera would see it because of the shutter chopping it into a sequence, and your visual apparatus would see it because the strobe light pulses, showing you only select "frames of the animation", making it apear to move. The ratio of the strobe light power vs. the presence of ambient light would change the intesity of the percieved effect.
It's great when science and art come together...it produces awe inspiring results and sometimes reveals nature's hidden patterns and secrets
Having my mind blown open on a Monday morning is a most wonderful thing! Thank you!
90% of the comments = Last time a guy got obsessed with spirals, it didn't end well.
10% of the comments = that was amazing

and "Last time a guy got obsessed with spirals, it didn't end well.
" has 900+ likes.
I read these both, why are these a year ago
You litteraly just read the first 2 comments lmao
Exory yeah
you mean 85% Last time a guy got obsessed with spirals, it didn't end well.
10% of the comments = that was amazing
and 5% of comments are your comment and this one
Exory it might be a comment bot... just uses unreliable algorithms to get worthless internet points
I read a manga about this guy once
Someone should show it to him
This is how it starts...
Junji Ito yes?
Tell me
@@kapilsharma320 Uzumaki
This is definately one of my favorite videos because in incorporates a basic pattern in nature with human intervention to look at it in a different way. Facinating!
he has the best job in the universe .He is the ultimate kid.
If they incorporated these kinds of beautiful structures into math in school more kids would be excited about learning it
No they wouldn't. Like always it would interest one or two who were already interested in the first place. The others would say wow for 2 minutes and then will keep bitching about math when they'll need to actually think and calculate anything.
@@manelcosta4097, is he wrong tho, do you really think, that this kind of aproach would pull more kids towards being intrested in math?
@@arehtman3329 There would be always people who are not interested in it, but I think that showing the beauty of mathematics and what can you do with it, would give more purpose to doing boring homework, to a lot of people. I always thought I hated maths, but when I finished school and learned from channels like numberphile, vsauce, and started to apply it to drawings, for example, it changed my mind. Certainly, sentencing kids by saying "well they woudn't change anyways" won't help anyone.
@@manelcosta4097 i think it would be awesome if in school they could show visually what the math we are using is doing like cosine and the other ones
Manel Costa he isn’t wrong 😂
Thank you for sharing your amazing creativity and brilliance. Bringing mathematics, art, and clearly seeing the natural world’s beauty which is there trying to help us discover the truth is very showing in your creations. I really appreciate your work!
*flashback to someone else obsessed with spirals* "oh no!"
OH NO
*sweats nervously*
who?
@@vikaspanchal6628 manga stories called uzimaki by junji into. (Hopefully spelt it right.)
@@PeeperCrizzalive Junji ito
Fantastic!!! I have seen many variations of this, but this video demonstrates the most developed of physical structures I have ever seen using the Golden Mean.
He should watch the movie "Uzumaki". I bet he would love it.
the manga is better
The movie is a joke visually. Read the manga as Chaddabox suggests here and the imageries will stick to your brain
Read the manga, couldn't sleep for days. Movie's nothing compared to it.
Vincent de Jong is a loser for even mentioning the movie without the manga.
@@budmeister Let's not jump to conclusions, there is a possibility he didn't know about the manga.
I had never heard of the "golden angle" of 137.5 degrees. Very interesting video.
try this one: th-cam.com/video/keLN89CWZ-A/w-d-xo.html
Well, cause it isn't important, same as the Golen Ratio is nothing really special either.
@@ABaumstumpf yes l, its not important for people that has nothing to do with it.
Even photography and videography have golden ratio.
Fibinati numbers
pizza motarella
An artist that deserves a huge amount of recognition. Mind blowing work!
It's so peaceful and mesmerizing!
It's a smart piece of art!
*junji ito wants to know your location*
lol Unsusal behavior yea I see where your going lmao
Just wait until him put himself in a tub
My first thought 😂
@@malikfaisal416 😱😨
pls no
They are so hypnotic, This guy is a genius! I'm loving the content Scifri!
As a 3D artist creating foliage, this information is invaluable. Thank you
Is in it?! I said in more words..but yes! 😌🍀💖🙏💞🕉️✨
1:09 those rotating stairs look beautiful
This is fascinating, and I would love to take one of his courses. He has definitely succeeded in evoking a sense of wonder and magic.
Amazing, mesmerising art, I feel like I want to learn from him.
This is beautiful on soo many levels. Love it!
Fascinating background on the concepts, as a lover of kinetic art and unique illusions this is just pure magic to me. Thanks for putting my thoughts into words.
Finally something to excite my life.
Was getting depressed until now.
Inspired.
These are so gorgeous!
Beautiful. The numerous blossoming spirals remind me of when I would close my eyes as a baby I would see swirling geometric patterns in gold on a very dark navy blue background.
Wow what a unique man you are. Creating beautiful things that no one even ever dreamed of. Only in nature before you came along. I am beyond impressed. Wish I lived near so as to occasionally see your beautiful creations. Never lucky enough to meet anyone so talented. Continue to create and enjoy them as I am sure you shall.
I love how 90% of comments are about Uzumaki. Who hasn't read or seen Ito Junji's Work omg.
He was found in his bed the next day morphed into a giant snail like form.
So underrated
Thank you for sharing. Your work is wonderful and your explanation is great.
Really staggering level of modeling skill... thank you for sharing this.
Im actually in love with these
It is just amazing.what a creative mind!
I'm always attracted from this kind of floating art.
Its a multitude of all in one. 💖
My life has just been changed and deeply inspired within the last five minutes. Best 5 minutes of my life, and I've had a truly wonderful life.
This artwork is more than just aesthetically pleasing it is morpha-liciously spectacular!!!
Is there that a word or did you just give us a brand new morpha-liciously way of describing detail? I will say it 10 times and make it a part of my vocabulary, thank you. It must go into the Urban Dictionary.
Thank you Jerry Muns for giving the world 'Morpha-liciously", if you did.....it is an amazing achievement. I like me it, I really do.
1:47 - Wow, this structure looks like it could make a really great building design ! with these curved triangle shaped balconies..really nice design.
Kinda like burj khalifa
It is exactly Burj Khalifa.
Amazing Creativity indeed! Thank You So Much for the Efforts & for Sharing! 🌷🌿🌎💖
Awesome! I couldn't decide which piece was my favorite
Grasshopper is an amazing tool :D but this guy also knows how to use it in imaginative and inventive ways!
I love the fibbinatci sequence/ golden ratio. It's just so gosh darn elegant!
Truly beautiful, hypnotic even, isn't it wonderful how mathematics seems to be the key to unlocking the natural world...
I am in complete awe of people who create these beautiful objects.
Wow! whats going on there!? how is that possible!?
Computer science
the object rotate at the speed your little mind cant comprehend.
I know, I just watched a video explaining something, and at the end I'm just thinking "What is going on?"
I read it at the same time he said it. Boi
A random guy would say: the golden angle made it possible, he mentioned it in the video.
On magic mushrooms this must be simply mind blowing.
Most amazing thing I ever seen!!! Fractals is the beginning!!
Wonderful, magical, impressive work. Inspiring.
this feels like one of those optical illusions where you look into the centre for a bit and when you look away, u hallucinate😂😂😂
I am spellbound! The combination of the math with the art is beyond sublime! I wish I could take a class with you. Is the golden angle applicable to the
Fibonacci spiral? In other words, if I continue to mark the angles will the resulting spiral be a Fibonacci spiral?
Thank you for posting this video!
I agree, this is very much linked to industrial design, measurements and geometry 📐
those are just beautiful , im hypnotised.
Everything moves in patterns and is cyclable. There is something about the spiral, torus that is amazing. Cool stuff
Anyone who’s read Uzumaki will stay well away from this guy
Why?
@@chopin65 According to a brief Googling, it looks like the horror in that manga was related to spirals.
@@jzimmer8740 Junji Ito!
@@chopin65 It's a horror Manga by Junji Ito, in which the horror stems from the spiral. It is REALLY good!
@@jzimmer8740 thank you Kowalski for the analysis
"Why am I so obsessed with spirals?"
->He read Uzumaki
Amazing! I'm obsessed with the golden ratio so to find out there is a golden angle is eye opening. It is so obvious now: the reciprocal angle of 222.5 multiplied by the golden ratio gives the 137.5. Fantastic. Sacred geometry shows me something new. Again!
Mesmerizing. It would be nice to learn more about natural patterns (I knew about those before) and incorporating them in the creation of these moving works of art. Truly engaging pieces. Enjoyed this video highlight tremendously!
Junji Ito smiles.
Could you show people HOW you create these incredible pieces? Are they all CNC cut? What tools do you use? Glued, hardware etc? This would be really great to see! Do you have a book?
That's the reason wy all flowers in nature are so beautiful, perfect
I've just seen 2 examples in an exhibition in Berlin ("Futurium"). Then searched in the web and found your video. Wonderful, amazing.
Last time I was obsessed with a spiral, I lost an eye.
OMG
at least your hair didn't try to kill you
a Dutch artist and graficus (Escher)
Also was captured by a sense of perpetuum mobilae.
He did his graphics on paper.
He would be suprised to see all this
actual beauty .
Pieter Sweelinck
With all due respect - I don't think he would be surprised. He did not have the tools to create what this artist does - but Escher did his work first in his mind, so I really believe he understood the potential. I do think he would be thrilled to actually see it though, plucked as it was from his mind. And this artist should consider that an extreme complement. (because his work is thrilling!)
Amazing.
Thanks for sharing this.
What a beautiful reflection he has about spirals and our place in them...
If the math classes were taught in this manner, I would have enjoyed it more.
does this guy have a channel?, he's amazing!
A website : www.johnedmark.com
wow! you just opened new dimensions of thoughts in my head! thank you!!!!!
Absolutely awesome! Thanks for sharing your inspirations.
I'll try it in Blender. 😀
This is probably what Junji Ito watches in his spare time
since i don't know what is this spiral manga i'll just say great job
It's a body dismorphia horror manga by junji Ito named "Uzumaki" .... Trust me it's worth reading! You would be having some nightmares for some days tho
@@monkeh3925 oh i see, thanks
Very Genius ,I love and enjoy watching every second))
Thank you!
Beautiful and Inspiring. Genius!
2:30 That could hypnotise you...
Title: Spirals
Normal People: "Wow this is amazing"
Itou Junji Fans: **nervous sweating**
Seems weird that I don't see any gurren lagaan comments.
I got chills watching those move
Love this! Just proves how beautiful nature is!
"My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everybody calls me Giorgio".
Such A good song (gorgio by moroder)
Tune!
Reminded me to the leader of team rocket in Pokemon
I thought this was a jojo reference...
@@mycatwashere4760 it's not?
This is LITERALLY the script from Junji Ito's work, word for word.
I remember a dream where I saw machines with similar patterns and I was told that was intelligent design. I was fascinated.
And here I am fascinated with this work. I love it
Incredible and beautiful work! Wow!!
This is satisfiying af, ok TH-cam you did great today
Wow! What's going on there?! How is that possible?!
Sense of wonder evoked.
Great video, even though I understand so little.
Look up Golden Mean in nature for starters.
Nice work & remarkable effort
absolute genius....never saw anything like this before..wow.
1/4 of the comments actually contributing and acknowledging his work...
The rest of the comments...
*UZUMAKI S P I R A L S*
Well.. you can never forget it once you read it 😨
Yeah, I'm just liking those 1/4 comments cause they're hard to find
I mean when you start the video with how he did, it's hard not to make comparisons. He literally takes the time to talk about an obsession with spirals
came here to make a junji ito reference but im too late :(
Such mastery and artistry
I am intrigued by this “golden angle.” I know this type of artistry is beyond my brains capacity, but I’m glad I watched this!!!! Maybe one day I will understand fully..
''I am fascinated by spirals'' Junji Ito warned us about this.
This is not a unusual behaviour but a normal behaviour underscored until now
Love his work!
Amazing synchronisation of mathematics Sir
