Form
A
exhibiting three-dimensional characteristics
23
Q
Shape
A
a two dimensional element which is distinguished from its surroundings by visible boundaries
24
Q
Line
A
a straight or curved geometric element that is generated by a moving point that has extension only along the path of the point
25
Plane
an element that has **surface direction** and slant, unaccompanied by mass
26
Axis
invisible line running through the longest dimension of a shape or form, giving it direction
27
Concavity
the space that is created when mass is removed
28
Convexity
the expression of positive volume or form pushing into negative space. Primary characteristic: weight and bulk.

Fibonacci sequence
as close as we can get to phi. 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ... to infinity--\>.

33
2D Plane vs. 3D Plane
2D plane=axis remains flat. Does not create positive or negative space.
3D plane=create both positive and negative space around themselves (curved, broken, twisted, grouped plane)

43
Rectilinear
any shape with or form with only 90degree angles
44
Gestalt
a structure, configuration, or pattern of physical, biological, or psychological phenomena so integrated as to constitute a functional unit with properties not derivable by the summation of its parts.
45
Gestalt principal of figure/ground
in perceiving a visual field, some objects take a prominent role while others recede into the background
46
Gestalt principal of similarity
that elements will be grouped perceptually if they are similar to each other
47
Gestalt principal of proximity
when we perceive a collection of objects, we will see objects close to each other as forming a group
48
Gestalt principal of closure
we perceptually close up, or complete, objects that are not, in fact, complete
49
Gestalt principal of continuation
innate tendency to perceive a line as continuing its established direction
