Check out the work of Josh Sommers. He applies conformal mapping of the Complex Plane into photography and art.

I find few things more enjoyable than using Fibonacci's 'maths' when selecting colors and crocheting scarves or afghans. (Works for knitters, too!)
"Fibonacci number: In mathematics, the Fibonacci numbers, commonly denoted Fₙ form a sequence, called the Fibonacci sequence, such that each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, starting from 0 and 1."

In the late 60s (69 I think) I saw an Escher exhibit in Berkeley. I became a stout fan.

Escher is the reason rivers can run up hill.
(Well, that’s really God but, Escher borrowed it.

Whatever age I discovered him, that was IT. He was the coolest.
And I wasn’t a big math fan.

Great post! Escher was like an Einstein of art, truly a treasure of the human race, without parallel.

I was a math and science nerd in school. The first time I saw an Escher, I thought it was one of the most exquisite pieces of art I had ever seen.
