2. Week 02¶
This week I worked on getting used to Scrtach. its about visual rythm and proportions
about visual rhythm and proportions¶

Art and Composition Concepts: Symmetry and Balance: The project uses perfect geometric symmetry — important for creating a balanced composition in visual arts.
Center and Focus: The eye is naturally drawn to the center, where the squares get smaller and tighter.
Rhythm and Repetition: The repeated squares create a visual rhythm — a basic principle of good composition.
Mathematics behind: Pythagoras’ Theorem: The shrinking and rotating squares visually remind of the famous Pythagorean spiral or Pythagorean tiling. In Pythagoras’ Theorem: The squares could represent how areas (related to side lengths) decrease proportionally. Also, rotating the squares by 45° hints at diagonals of squares, which are calculated using Pythagoras’ theorem.
Geometric Sequence: Each inner square is smaller than the previous — following a geometric progression (e.g., reducing each size by a constant factor). This little and very simple Scratch project remind and could be a start point of farther exploration of beautiful and balanced composition using simple geometry. It uses shrinking and rotating squares, inspired by Pythagoras’ ideas about right triangles and square areas. This is also kind of reminder how math and art come together through symmetry, rhythm, and proportion.
