Brian Eno, at the Edge
{the golden mean as culturally arbitrary value-added meme? the golden meme?it's easier for me to imagine a fundamentally unambiguous nature. to everything, in everything. that it's that we respond to most. that the golden mean is a capturing of that. though I admit it's not hard to see the biology in color harmony, the mammalian urge in landscape grandeur, still it's plain that there's something going on here we can't articulate, can't even grasp the possibility of except as extrapolative potential, something deep and eternal and as real as dental plaque, or sex, or galaxies.}
