The Golden Ratio 



VIVID GALLERY

Inspiration

The Fibonacci sequence is a numerical sequence in which each number is derived by adding the two numbers that come before it in the series.It has captivated mathematicians for centuries due to its intriguing properties and patterns. Studying the Fibonacci sequence provides insights into various mathematical concepts, such as recursion, number theory, and algebra.

The Fibonacci sequence appears in nature frequently, in phenomena like the arrangement of leaves on a stem, the spiral pattern of pinecones and sunflowers, and the growth of certain seashells.The use of Fibonacci proportions, often referred to as the "Golden Ratio" or "Phi (Φ)," in art and design is a fascinating aspect of the Fibonacci sequence's influence on aesthetics.

This mathematical pattern resonates with the natural ordering principles, guiding the structure and flow of Harto’s artworks.Recursive algorithms and fractal geometry are also key inspirations, allowing me to explore the complex, often infinite patterns found in nature.I am also fascinated by the concept of proportionality in nature, symmetry, and grids.

These aspects contribute to a sense of harmony and balance in my work, which is essential for conveying the beauty I see in the natural world.Moreover, the elements of pattern randomness, chaos, and organic granulation are crucial in my art. They introduce an element of unpredictability and naturalness, reflecting the often chaotic yet ordered reality of the natural environment.

Finally there are a lot of palettes and different colours, inspired by crypto collections, Bauhaus movement and other contemporary and classical pieces.


How was the art created?


The Golden Ratio #420

The artwork is made in p5js an artistic variant of javascript, thanks to the libraries that Onchainmonkey uploaded to bitcoin, we can now create fully on-chain generative art in ordinals.

The artwork is a tribute to the golden ratio and the fibonacci sequence, used for centuries by artists and designers, to create compositions pleasing to the human eye.

Since Harto’s beginnings in design and art he has been using this composition for illustrations, photography, graphic design among others.The code has certain levels of complexity keeping it as simple as possible to occupy a minimum of space on the blockchain.

The first level is the golden composition with rectangles and the other levels are defragmented and increase in complexity, allowing more variety in the collection.
The code has been expressly created so that it takes up little space and is rendered efficiently.

One of Vivid Gallery's main concerns is to use as little blockchain data as possible when inscribing. It's a way of proving the high quality of the technical development combined with the artistic prowess of the collection.

A great way to minimise data inscription is to use Recursion.

About recursion:
It's a way to extract data from existing inscriptions. Recursion enables sharing data between inscriptions fully on-chain.

We used recursion to significantly reduce your inscription fees and enhance storage efficiency.

On top of that we used parent/child provenance.

A new way to guarantee that inscriptions are part of the same collection. It is done by including the parent inscription when inscribing the children's inscriptions.

Inscriptions rarity:

We will be paying homage to Bitcoin's origins by inscribing our generation algorithm on an Uncommon - Alpha sat from 2013 and artworks on SATs from the first bitcoin of Block 9 450x.*

This generation algorithm is our Parent and your Ordinals will be the Children.

*The first bitcoin of the 9th block. All sats between 45,000,000,000 and 45,099,999,999
