The golden ratio!! (@glittermehak98)

The golden ratio was a very interesting topic. The astonishing part of it was how it was derived and how it was formed. I  really enjoyed that lesson and i hope we all get to see some more interesting topic like the golden ratio.

Fractals (by @bradlehchung)

In the fractals lesson, I learnt that a lot of common patterns are fractals and even natural animals (like nautili) have a fractal design.

Working in groups to draw complex fractals was enjoyable

symmetry (@AnikSingh1999)

I learnt that there are so many different ways of earning symmetry. Theyre mad as because you can divide all these shapes randomly and they come back together.

Potential Ideas for artwork project (By @nillyperera99)

For the artwork project I think we should draw a massive symmetrical pattern, or do some more interesting fractal designs e.g. design a room with fractals,  or use the four colour theorum to make a logo the size of an A3 page. I hope I have helped 🙂

Artwork 2 (by @bradlehchung)

Idea:

1. Horizontal line, with 2 vertical lines on each end, 2 more horizontal lines etc.

2. A pentagon with triangles inside, giving it a star effect

3. Crescent’s within a circle

3 ideas for AT2 (@AnikSingh1999)

idea 1. one design is a star and then draw more starts n the outside and then like you draw more

idea 2. you draw a really really really really big hexagon and then you draw more hexagons on each corner

idea 3. you draw a design

itll look fresh as man

AT2 (Artwork) by (@tdawgg_99)

The three potential ideas for my artwork project are as listed below:

1. Fractals (Shape as in the shape it makes when drawn in a graph)

2. Helix Symmetry

3. Fractal 1- (Sieranskis Triangle)

The video (@6arnu9)

The videos were both funny and a little bit dull on the third video.

For the first video, Donald Duck in Mathmagic Land, ideas that surprised me were mostly about the golden ratio. It was interesting how Pythagorus theorem is related to the music today such as octaves and some sports that we play such as soccer. All of these ideas in the video are mathematical as it is all related to the golden rectangle/ratio, or also known as Phi.

For the second video, Ted talk, was again about Golden Ratio. The most surprising examples that was spoken was nearly everything in our life is based on the golden ratio. Also, when I saw that plastic surgeons use the golden ratio, I was suprised.

For the last video, I think human beauty is what you want it to be, its really a matter of personal opinion. But personally I believe that human beauty is about whats on the inside, which is a little bit more complex for simple numbers to explain. I found it interesting that plastic surgeons can use maths to create the “perfect” face. Same as the previous paragraph. (This was a really boring one…..) 🙂

Golden Ratio by Andy

This lesson began with us constructing a rectangle which formed a triangle with sides in the ratio of one is to phi. This really got me thinking as to what other shapes could have the same ratio in their sides. Then we looked at many monumental structures which also incorporated the Golden Ratio. After we looked at a few videos which talked about how the Golden Ratio itself exists nearly everywhere including us. This was an interesting lesson as I first believed this would be boring and fully mathematical but it was actually fun and it really opened my eyes about the beauty of maths. The lesson concluded with us briefly touching on the golden spiral and looking at it and drawing it for our homework.

First Lesson of this Class (@tdawgg_99)

In the very first lesson of this class/course, I was quite curious yet worried of all the things we would be learning throughout the entirety of this course. I feared that we would be learning all complex topics that were associated with 4 unit maths for 12 and felt scared of learning ahead of my peers and that I would not understand anything in this course. However, the first lesson was thoroughly interesting and we also learnt about series and famous Grandi. I never knew that such a simple concept played a huge part in the basics and fundamentals of maths and this provided me with hope as maths could actually be fun! This brought to me a new curve and side to maths and how series can be applied and utilised in many different ways.
