CEREBRART - Chaotic Symmetry


6 comments:

  1. I couldn't believe what I see here. Do there exist Chaotic Symmetry? Can one even make sense of this unscientific concept? I dismiss this theory as complete nonsense (It is my personal opinion). Just a Greek black metal band.

    1. Read Symmetry in Chaos: A Search for Pattern in Mathematics, Art, and Nature written by Mike Field and Martin Golubitsky and you'll understand this theory soon enough

    2. Reading this book was a complete waste of time.

  2. One can say
    the asymmetric symmetry way
    How electron and positron
    Good and evil and so on...

    1. Unfortunately matters are not so simple. First of all the relationship of symmetry to CEREBRART is complex - there are many nontrivial symmetries. Why not use them to illustrate chaotic brains? I prefer artworks that have some symmetry, but also enough chaos to make them more interesting and informative. To be more specific: you can see some trivial bilateral symmetry here (blue hands). Note also interferences with some nontrivial 3-fold/6-fold symmetry of the hexagonoid above (red-green-blue) etc. Finally, the brain seems to be symmetrical about the vertical central axis of this picture – but it is not so simple symmetry – look and find subtle but important differences! And I will say again - nontrivial symmetries matters are not so simple…

    2. your ideas are too sofisticated to be understood
