  1. Rhythm And Movement In Art (1969)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8z5klVj-eE

    This film explores the fundamental role of rhythm and movement in art, drawing parallels between natural phenomena and artistic creation. It demonstrates how artists utilize various elements like line, color, light, and form to evoke a sense of rhythm and motion. Through examples from different art forms, including painting, sculpture, architecture, and film, the transcript highlights techniques such as repetition, alternation, and accent to create dynamic visual experiences that engage the viewer’s eye and imbue static works with life.

    Keywords: rhythm, movement, art, repetition, line, color, light, shadow, form, shape, curves, straight lines, diagonals, alternation, radial, spiral, accent, variation, sculpture, architecture, painting, film, visual elements, nature, life, artistic creation.

  2. Still Life, 20230705. Watercolour pencil on paper. Drawn with a ruler. Probably should get it wet and see what happens. Very different style from my previous ruler drawings ( mastodon.art/@dcsparkes/110005 & mastodon.art/@dcsparkes/109951 ). #StraightLines #StillLife #drawing #MastoArt #timelimit 1hr

  3. You can also explore #non-Euclidean space and here is the same action in #HyperbolicSpace (here in a #PoincaréDisc). #StraightLines are replaced by #GeodesicLines which look like #CircularArcs which intersect the #disc at #RightAngles. Circles are transformed to circles but their hyperbolic centres are not at their Euclidean centres.

    Repeating the construction for Euclidean space, you can see that the parallel lines diverge.
