A friend of mine who works in an art museum is looking at Fibonacci influences in art. Yes, this has been done many, many times before, and I've seen a number of exhibitions of this type, but I haven't been that impressed by the artistic and mathematical quality or depth of insight provided by most of these previous exhibitions. Furthermore, many (if not most) of the supposed findings of phi (the Golden ratio) in art are spurious coincidences, without any shred of evidence that the artist knew anything about golden ratios. A big problem is finding images/sculptures/animations that are both interesting/fun to look at, but also provide interesting/fun mathematical/geometric insights. I'm hoping that some of you have been equally disappointed in previous exhibitions of this type, and may have some "pet" images/ideas/insights that you'd like to see in such an exhibition. This may be your chance to get artistic attribution! He has not allowed me to go public with his name or museum affiliation, so I can't tell you those things yet -- it may be a number of months. But you may want to be on the lookout for interesting ideas to put into the back of your mind. Some obvious things: Penrose tilings, Archimedes spiral gears, flowers, sea shells, etc. But I'd love to see some 3D-printed sculptures of cool shapes. Animations of mechanisms would also be very cool. I'd love to find any Islamic geometric art that utilizes phi. -------- While Google searching for Fibonacci/phi, I asked myself about the phi number field. Anything interesting there?
