How Mathematics Influences Our Perception Of Beauty, Leslie Muzulu
How Mathematics Influences Our Perception Of Beauty, Leslie Muzulu
Antonian Scholars Honors Program
Beauty is an important part of our lives. Consequently, it is no surprise that we are interested in our experiences and judgments of it. What makes something beautiful? The arts and nature are considered vessels of beauty, but could mathematics be as well? Can it influence our perception of what is beautiful? This paper offers insights into how mathematics influences our perception of what is beautiful. The philosophies of aesthetics and mathematics are briefly discussed, followed by a consideration of how the presence of such mathematical structures as proportion, symmetry and perspective can significantly influence our perception of beauty in …

This image is based on several different algorithms interconnected within a single program in the language BASIC-256. The fundamental structure involves a tightly wound spiral working outwards from the center of the image. As the spiral is drawn, different values of red, green and blue are modified through separate but related processes, producing the changing appearance. Algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and analytic geometry are all utilized in overlapping ways within the program. As with many works of algorithmic art, small changes in the program can produce dramatic alterations of the visual output, which makes lots of variations possible.

People traditionally rely on visual arts as an effective communication tool and medium of self-expression for when words fail to convey abstract concepts. Thera Mjaaland, anthropologist and professional photographer, writes, “Art is capable of negotiating conceptual gaps caused by a dichotomized epistemology” (393). In essence, Mjaaland asserts that art helps relate different modes of thinking by illustrating the abstract and difficult to grasp—privileging the communicative value of an image over that of text. Within this method of communication is a collection of works acknowledged by public consensus to be of an elevated status or value. The art world is deeply …
