I feel this one right in my solar plexus – it’s so profound, I am awed.

Known is a drop, Unknown is an Ocean

    Wow. Geometry is everywhere. Not that we didn’t know that, but it’s easy to forget.

    My computer won’t play it. I think I said no to something I should have said yes to and I can’t play things like this anymore:( I’m hoping my daughter can figure out what I did.

    It’s amazing how nature has its own architecture, usually one thinks it’s about geometry on the outside, but not the geometry inside, amazing!

    You know, if I had been shown something like this when I was in school, I might have had more interest in math. I never understood why the geometric or algebraic concepts were relevant. I would have tried harder to get it if I had seen this. It’s all so amazing.

    Whenever a teenager asks why they have to learn maths… they should show them this 🙂
    Amazing and beautiful!

    Very clever – I agree with Noortje should be shown in all maths classes:)

    The “order” in this Universe when you really stop to think about it, is so beyond anything we can truly grasp with our minds. Incredible just leaving one with such complete awe that ALL have a Design created in Perfection! Eliza, I do believe you have given me here today the exact remedy I needed to spark the dry spell I feel right now into a blazing roaring fire. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

    Beautifully done. Thanks for sharing it. I’m endlessly fascinated by the shapes and symmetry in nature. I’m glad they included the sunflower. The first time I looked at the sunflower center magnified through my camera, I was stunned. All that in there!

    The mathematics behind everything on Earth and in the universe is simply fascinating. This video brings it to life. One of my favorite reads is a book I am just starting called “The Mathematical Universe” by Max Tegmark…

      Did you know that Mozart was one composer who wrote in sacred geometry? No wonder we are drawn to and never tire of his music! Thanks for the tip on the book.

        I heard about this when I was younger, and it made a great impact on me in terms of both enjoying his music but also on how I began to realize you couldn’t really force anything in life ~ mathematics flows naturally, as does Mozart’s music and I figured so does life itself. I still can’t balance a checkbook…but… 🙂
