GEO//\\METRY: a photo essay of sorts

in high school i liked geometry. i think maybe the symmetry was soothing or something.


i liked remembering the postulates and theorems. i think because they were like laws and i was very interested in finding out the rules for life.

anyway, i got a C.


sometimes i like to look at shapes that are symmetrical next to shapes that are not symmetrical.




however, i can't look at them unless the number of symmetrical shapes is equal to the number of unsymmetrical shapes. it makes me nauseated. but in a good way.



i don't really know why this is.



when i pump gas, the cents must always be rounded to the nearest quarter.


if i wear a button up shirt it must be tucked in and i must either wear a belt or suspenders.

i don't really know why this is either.



this is the album art for my record. i think i like the mirror effect most. i like the skull face in the middle, below the birds.


i think i like it most because it happened by itself. the symmetry was there and by itself--without postulates or theorems.
