You want to delve into dynamic symmetry? Rectangles of whirling squares? Gnomons? Phi?
Wow. That's great. I didn't think anyone would be interested in that anymore.

Long time ago, I bought a cardboard box with books because there was one I was interested in.
But another one proved to be more valuable: a Dover publication by Jay Hambidge called: "The elements of dynamic symmetry".

If you haven't got it: get it.

There are other laws of composition also. Things like the Barock diagonal, creating tension with zigzags, tondo's leading the eye with lines, masses, colours,...and the most basic one: "Unity within diversity, and diversity within unity". Creating a stasis, ready to start moving, living.

This can become a very interesting thread.

If I may say so: also have a look at the two books on drawing lessons and painting lessons by the great masters by Robert Beverly Hale. As a photographer, you're also busy with visual art, and Hale was one of the greatest teachers ever. (my everything but humble opinion). Sop never mind it's on drawing and painting. Everything he tells is useful.

There are no Borg. All resistance is fertile.
