I’ve always been a huge fan of the sort of weird music/acrobatics/theater/dance medley shows that have made groups like Cirque du Soleil famous. So naturally, being the total nerd that I am, the only thing better than going to see a cool fusion show like that would be going to see one based on a mathematical constant.
The Fibonacci Project is a category bending production that uses dance, music, and an impressive demonstration of gymnastic ability to investigate the relationship between art, beauty, and the golden ratio φ. equal to approximately 1.618, the golden ratio is the the factor believed by many Classical and Renaissance artists alike to be the basis of the most perfect beauty attainable in either nature or human endeavor. It is a relationship that has been used extensively in both painting and architecture by everyone from Leonardo da Vinci to Salvador Dali.
Now too, it is the theme behind an exiting new show. Check out these highlight videos, and click HERE for more info on the Fibonacci Project.
