Sleepy Grid

I have been thinking about the deconstruction of the forms and how this ties back into patterns, while researching I started to consider the psychological effects of the patterns and came across this particularly interesting design...

"This grid pattern was designed to visually stimulate healthy synapses in the brain. It is based on a visual grid that incorporates sacred geometry and golden ratios. The first study group that worked with this pattern was insomniacs. They were given the pattern and were told to look at it before they went to sleep. The individuals in the studying looked at the pattern for anywhere from 20 seconds to a minute and this produced healthy sleep patterns in 58 of the 60 participant"

  1. Interesting. Maybe organized pattern leads to an abstract state of mind ... and abstraction leads to sleep.
