Participant“the way all of the plant grows is same called golden spiral”
It is this I suggested be proved. Not the whole thing. I have read a number of explanations on the growth of plants and the logic or stuructures that may exist. Not all plant growth is the same and even then growth is just that, growth, continuous development. There appears certainly a family of forms or shapes that have some correspondance but the relationships have not been fully formulated. Recent work on self similarity in systems may provide some suitable ground to begin to talk about mimetic structures.

Participantin short ,the way plant grows is like ^the lower part is wider with bigger leavs slowly when you come up you see the circle became smaler and the distance between leavs became shorter and another point is the leaves do not grow over each other until ……..
so complicated i try to send the picture it take few daysApril 11, 2003 at 12:54 pm #715177sw101
Participanti believe the golden section is so appreciable and satisfying as a proportion because it it the proportion of our vertical and horizontal limits of our vision.
it looks like a nice frame because it is the ultimate frame. our view of the world

Participanthttp://www.nexusjournal.com/BouMaz.html “The Use of the Golden Section in the Great Mosque of Kairouan [in Tunisia ]” by Algerian architects, Kenza Boussora and Said Mazouz. The first mosque in North Africa, it was founded around the year 670 AD and much altered subsequently. The authors claim: “The geometric technique of construction of the golden section seems to have determined the major decisions of the spatial organisation. The golden section appears repeatedly in some part of the building measurements. It is found in the overall proportion of the plan and in the dimensioning of the prayer space, the court and the minaret.” (Contains diagrammatic illustrations with overlays.)
