AFTER ALL, NATURE IS BETTER THAN ART




Romanesco



On a recent trip to the Union Square Green Market, my girlfriend and I purchased this other-worldly combination of beautiful logarithmic spirals...behold Romanesco Broccoli, in all its fractal glory. Mario Merz used the related Fibonacci Number Series to generate his art...John Cage the mycologist musican looked to nature for inspiration, Jackson Pollack WAS nature, and ether^ra finds an alien beauty in these spiral forms...and they are quite delicious!
