What is the Golder Ratio?
The Golder Ratio & The Human Body
The digits of the Golden Ratio are a proportion.
The Greeks were so familiar with this proportion
that they just called it the Section.
Plato considered the golden section the best of all proportions.
The golden section has been used in art and architecture for ages
to achieve balance and beauty.
The Golden Ratio is also known by the greek letter phi (Φ).
And you can spot it in a lot of designs.
In credit cards,
in packets of cigarrets,
and even in the Eiffel Tower.
We will find the ratio if We draw a star or pentacle.
We choose one of its lines and we divide it into two, where they cut each other.
The Golden Ratio is the relationship between the full line and the largest segment.
The funny thing is that the relationship between the largest segment and the minor segment
is the same: the Golden Ratio (1.618...)
Where do we find the number phi in the human body?
When we measure the body of individuals
as compared to the measures of the bodies we see in advertising,
the latter coincide better with the Golden Ratio.
It is a fact that a body is perceived as most beautiful
as more Golden Ratios contains in its anatomy.
The golden ratio is beauty, perfection, however...
is symmetry and proportion related with appeal?
Do we need to be perfect to succeed in the media?
