Precedents for 104 "Grow"

Here are my precedent images for my DSDN104 project "Grow". I decided to investigate some naturally occurring patterns and found that most of the underlying patterns had an adherence to The Golden Rule in one way or another. I was also curious about fractal images and found that there were many images to adhered to both the natural "Golden Rule" and the computational rules used to create the fractal images.

I also had an interest in the concept of a Mobius Strip and the connotations it has in physics and philosophy, and the interesting shapes that have been made using this concept
