This might lead to spirited argumentative dismissals and
"refutations"...........
(OR, just guffaws, with most laughing too hard to post---)
But, we know linearity, 45* angles, and such are not positive tropes in TRP's
fiction....and Against the Day mostly showed lotsa positive associations with
curves...paths, roads, circular courtyards, more......
I might argue that TRP sees curved shapes as natural and angles and lines
usually not.......................
So, ignore this stupid story wrapped around the science and judge curves and the
human in another new way? ?
If you prefer a full figure to a stick one, you’re not alone. Researchers at
Johns Hopkins have found that the brain is hardwired to appreciate curves.
The Baltimore Sun says they used a series of sculptures by the artist Jean
Arp—and not photos of Kim Kardashian—to come to their conclusion.
