The only way to
apply the three laws of rhythm, balance, interchange is to study and classify
the consistencies exhibited by the subject matter, classify and group them into
primary elements, and then apply the principle to each prime element.
Visual perception
Consistencies of
visual phenomena, is defined by what we always visually perceive, and is broken
down into 3 primary elements that is applied to the dimension, scale of space.
a. line
b. shade
c. colour
shape is the product
of line, shade and or colour applied to dimension, scale of space.
d. shape line
e. shape proportion
f. shape scale
line is the supreme prime element of visual
perception, visual phenomena can be voided of colour, or shade but line stays
constant, lines can be perceived as line or shape, lines that cross or meet
ends form shape, if not it stays a line, therefore the shape of the line or/
the line of the shape can be emphasized.
That is why there is
two different sets for line application with four in each set, if the line of
the SHAPE is emphasized the aesthetic effect is not effected by the scale in
which it exists,
If the shape of the
LINE is emphasized, the aesthetic effect is influenced by the scale of the line
relative to the scale in which it exists.
The secret to visual aesthetics where line, shade or
colour is the subject matter itself, is to create the perception of debt,
dimension and scale, using line, shade or colour to do this, making the invisible
[space] just as important as the visible [ line, shade, colour ] think of
music, the space\time between notes defines the tempo and rhythm, without
silence there can be no music, literary.
Invisible space
defines visual identity, the colour, and shade of your physical profile does
not define your individual profile, but the space, proportions and shape of
your profile does.
1. line.
Consistencies that
define the elementary make up of line.
a. line gender
[male\ female]
b. line angle
c. line distance.
Male and female line
both have line angle and line distance, therefore male and female lines are
only different relating to each other, and is grouped into 3 primary elements,
line gender, angle, distance.
The difference
between male and female lines is the line distance compared to the shortest
distance between beginning and end of line, the line distance of a female line
is always greater than the distance between beginning and end of line, the line
distance of a male line is always the same as the shortest distance between
beginning and end, this measurement is also used to define the female line
curve degree
.
Unrelated groups of
elements enhance each other, related groups of elements compliment each other.
Line enhancement.
Black and white is
the salt and pepper on the table of visual aesthetics, black and white
compliment each other but together the shades black and white enhance line.
Variation in line
thickness compliments the perception of lines, and creates the perception of
debt, distance\ scale.
a. The shape of the
line
[relative to space]
meaning that the aesthetic effect of the creation is effected by the scale and
dimension in which the creation exists, relative to the scale and dimension of
the creation itself.
Line gender defines
shape in a line, angles compliment shape not line, therefore female shape
lines should not have angles, line gender compliments
the shape of the line, there is 3 basic primary elements defining shape of a
line
a. female
b. male
c. male and female
lines together.
b. Shape
The line of the
shape. [Not relative to space] meaning the surrounding space has no effect on
the aesthetic qualities of the shape, an object is defined by the scale,
dimension and lines that make it, to create an aesthetic shape the laws of
creation has to be applied to each prime element of shape
1. line [not
relative to space]
a. Line gender
b. Line angle
c. Line distance
2. scale [relative
to space]
3. dimension
\proportion [relative to space]
2. Shade\ tone
Tones definition
between black and white with no bright hue. White has a bright hue but with no
hue variation, the 2 constants of colour definition is 1. bright hue and 2. hue
variation, as white has no hue variation it does not conform to colour
definition.
Black\ white, grey
and brown is the different primary elements of shade types, but because tone
variation is emphasized, can black and white not be used, as it has only one
variation each, dark and light.
Black and white is
used everywhere to enhance colour and line, black enhances the hue of a colour,
and white enhances the colour of the hue, while complimenting grey and brown
related tones.
Shade\ tone
application is divided into male and female applications, female shade fades
from one area to another into a lighter or darker tone on a surface area.
Male application is
constant with no tone variation.
Enhancement and compliment
Tone variation
enhances shape, black and white compliments related tone variations.
Rhythmic, balance,
interchange is applied to 3 basic primary groups in tone\ shade emphasis
1. tone of the shade
2. male application
3. female
application
3. Colour
There is 7 different colour types using a bright hue
as a reference, [cyan is a variation of blue] the 3 primary colours blue, red
and yellow. And the source of
the 3 primary colours is white, and from the 3 primary colours ,3 secondary
colours, green, purple and orange, plus the ‘odd ball’ colour pink the seventh
colour, and of these 7 colours all in a bright hue, 11 different hue
variations, in light and rich hues, except for pink [no rich hue],red [no light
hue] and yellow [no rich hue] 18 different variations in colour type and hue
variation from one source, bright white.
A bright hue is therefore a reference when defining
the nature of colour, all colours have a bright hue, with light and rich hue
variations, white is essentially a bright and not light hue, because if it was
in a light hue, the colour red would have a light hue variation, which is why
pink is the oddball because it is not created by combing 2 different primary
colours, like all the secondary colours, pink exists with it’s own bright hue
making it an identifiable colour type, brown, grey and black is not defined as
colour because they have no bright hue.
Enhancement and
compliment of colour
Black compromises
bright and light colours, while enhancing rich colours, and rich and bright
hues, white compromises the colour of rich colours while enhancing the colour
of bright, light colours and light hues.
If black and white
is used together with colour, only colours in a bright hue are used.
Different colours have different hue dynamics, and
different hues compliment different colours.
Rich hues compliment
red, purple
Bright hues
compliment yellow, orange
Light hues
compliment blue[cyan], green and pink
Any colour
composition should not have more or less than 2 related hue variations [colour
tones] if only one hue is used the hue of the colours is emphasized, and not
the colours of the hues, if three hue variations are used the tone\shade is
emphasized not the colour.
The colour of the
hue or the hue of the colour can be emphasized
a. Related colour
type enhancement
Red with purple and
orange
Yellow with orange
and green
Blue with green and
purple
Pink with blue and green
Pink with orange and
yellow
Orange with red and yellow
Green with blue and
yellow
Purple with red and
blue
b. Opposite colour
type compliment
Blue and orange
Red and green
Yellow and purple
Pink and green\blue
Each primary has a
secondary colour relative with the same nature and behaviour, blue and green,\
red and purple,\ yellow and orange, except for pink.
Pink originates from
red, has the same nature as yellow, with no rich hue, and the behaviour of
blue, as a light hue compliments their appearance.
With the related
colour type enhancement the related colours should be in the same hue.
The application rhythmic, balance interchange is
applied to 3 basic primary groups of colour
1. related colours
2. unrelated colours
3. hue of the colour
a. light
b. bright
c. rich
Visual
aesthetics
Order is the shape upon which beauty depends.
If
a man takes a random survey of people’s favourite song or musical composition,
the answers will be different, because musical tastes differ, but if that same
man jumped randomly on a piano everyone would agree that it is noise!
These
natural laws are just references, illustrating constant, opposite and
interrelated variations in natural laws of creation, interrelated variations
uses the Fibonacci sequence as a reference, but can move up and down the
sequence depending on free will
MALE
LINE
1. all the lines are
straight
2. all the line angles are random
3. all the line distances
are the same
FEMALE LINE
1. the female curve degree
is always the same
2. the line angles are
always random
3. there is always an
interrelated variation in line distance.
LINE ANGLE
1. the line angles is
always the same
2. the line distances is
always interrelated
3. the line gender is
always the same, male or female [ interrelated female curves]
LINE DISTANCE
1. all the line distances
is the same
2. all the line angles are random

2. related colour application
3. interrelated hues
Colour type compliment
1. primary colour type
2. opposite primary colour application
3. interrelated hues
Hue
1. all the colours in the
same hues
2. the colour types unrelated
3. hues is applied with related shades
LINE SHAPE
There
are two different sets of line shape application.
Line
shape uses male and female lines, no angle interchange, female curves are used
to change line direction, and lines never cross, these sets of line application
is effected by scale and dimension of space in which it exists.
a. Line shape
1. interrelated variation in curve degree of female lines.
2. Both male and female lines are used.
3. Interrelated line distance of lines
b. Line shape
1. Female lines with the
same curve degree
2. both male and female lines are used
3. interrelated
variation in line distance
LINE GENDER
Line
gender application lines cross, but both line genders is not used together
c. Male shape lines
1. lines is always
straight
2. random line angles
3. interrelated variation in line distance
d. female shape lines
1. only female lines
2. random curve degrees
3. interrelated variation in line distance
SCALE
e. shape scale
1. the scale [ 2-d]
surface area is the same
2. unrelated shape proportions
3. interrelated variation in line distance
f. shape scale
1. interrelated variation
in scale of shape
2. unrelated shape proportions
3. line distance the same
SHAPE PROPORTION
The
application of proportion is divided into two sets, shapes with the same
proportion can overlap each other, the lines of the shapes with interrelated
proportions must not overlap.
a. shape proportion
1. the shape proportion is
the same
2. interrelated variation in shape scale
3. line gender the same [ interrelated variation
in line distance and curve degree]
b. shape proportion
1. interrelated variation
of shape proportions
2. interrelated variation in shape scale
3. line gender the same [
interrelated variation in line distance and curve degree]
Art work examples by various
great artists, most notably by Picasso, interestingly and not surprisingly
Picasso’s most recognised and popular paintings closely follow the rules of
visual aesthetics as defined by the laws of natural creation, and although some of the visual examples don't follow the rules of the model exactly it is close enough, these artist was not aware of the model and achieved this using instinct alone.
The natural laws of creation is the balance between chaos and order, where regularity and variation can co-exist, the same laws create harmony, melody and rhythm in music, aesthetic perception, or perceptions appealing to our senses alone is not really personal taste when self aware consciousness naturally gravitates towards these laws, irrelevant of free will, we where created by nature and is sub-concisely wired to find these laws appealing, the laws of creation is absolute and offers an objective definition of aesthetic qualities compared to the many subjective definitions of free will.
