Hey, I got a decent ammount of photography education on a higher level behind me and been noticing the visual as more than just surface for quite some time in my life. Anyway... i've started to train myself in the field of graphic design recently and most of the basic rules I do know by heart. Not that diffucult or anything. Then I stumbled upon this guys youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/IPOXstudios who talk a lot about dynamic symetry. His whole youtube channel and most of his website at https://ipoxstudios.com/ are both on this subject. At first sight it seems quite complex to acticly use on a consious level, more something that comes naturally when you do any type of graphic art for an extended time due to experience. Have you come across this before, if so what do you think of it? Is it something that can be applied to any graphic output? Are you thinking about this when you shoot photographs, paint or do whatever with a visual output? I'm curious about others take on it, if it's worth the time to dive into it or if it's more of a make up to dress your works in after the fact and by that "explain" why it's "good"?
The idea of Dynamic symmetry was outlined by Jay Hambidge and eventually presented in his book "The Elements of Dynamic Symmetry" Preface: These lessons have been taken from The Diagonal, a monthly magazine which Mr. Hambidge published while he was in Europe during the winter of 1919-20 at the request of students of dynamic symmetry, who were anxious to follow his research work in the museums there. Under the title of the "Elements" a lesson was given each month that the analyses of various objects might be understandable to the readers who were unfamiliar with the idea.
