I've always used this guide but it looks like you've already got it. http://www.ancient-symbols.com/golden_spiral.html

I always found it more useful to use the actual template on a transparency sheet to line up images, but that was for cropping photographs.

>>2344
I think the 8/5/3/2/1 is what I needed, I'll have another crack at it when I'm a bit more awake. Thanks for that

>>2343 1:1.6=GR

>>2343 start with a square - double it, and from there on you use the long edge as the start of the next square - then draw arcs in a outbound spiral - it's not exact, but it will get you close

it's a fibonicci sequence 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34...

not helpful

>>2363

I'm not >>2361 but when you posted >Perhaps some particular x/y ratio?

then what part of 1:1.6 isn't helpful? It's really quite simple, just get a ruler out.

>>2364 to be quite anal it's actually 1:1.6180339887...

>>2365

>>2364
Well, if you look at the image I attached in the OP, you'll see I already have that down, but numbers make my head freeze up, almost regardless of complexity.

>>2368

There's not going to be an easy way to explain it without numbers.

>>2369
The first reply to the thread did so pretty adequately. "1:1.6=GR" is just needlessly complicating it and showing off.
inb4 "but it's simpler" as no, not to me it isn't.

>>2370 well I'm sorry that you fail2math and numbers make your head ache - but that IS the golden ratio whether you like it or not

abd yes - I AM smarter than you are, but it's not showing off - just a basic fact - deal with it

>>2371
You didn't tell me anything more useful than I could find on wikipedia, which I needed, hence asking on here.
Not very smart if you ask me.

>>2372 but I didn't need to refer to wikipedia - so my statement still stands

It's kind of a mathematical thingy, you're going to need to be able to deal with a few numbers if you're going to try and use it.

I don't think it needs to be exact, a rough estimation of it should be enough for the composition.

>>2373
As >>2374 says, it doesn't really need to be exact, in fact that would be impossible considering it's an infinitely thin line.
I think you not realising this or that your input is useless detracts from your claim to intelligence. Numbers aren't everything. It's a different kind of smarts. Realise this, be humble and happy.

Haha I just had an exhibition on this just draw like 13^2 cm then a 8^2 then 5 then 3 then 2 then 1 then 1

>>2378

I made music

>>2378
Perfect! Many thanks.

>>2379
That's awesome. Hope it went well

>>2379

Also did this stave thing with like the Fibonacci numbers 21/13/8 and the ratio on women I could kinda find the spiral in

>>2382

>>2383

I did lots of shit, but have no photos of the complete finished thing yet on this laptop

>>2383
I like that one very much.

>>2384

>>2386

Even had some lad named 'box' draw me a piece using a ratio I projected and stuff, looked alright

>>2387

See if you can find this on the internet somewhere, people should of done it before
