I have to write a paper on the above issue. I'm focusing on anti-aestheticism in art, particularly the Dada movement. I have a few ideas on where to start, but if anyone knows more about the golden ratio than I (which is not a lot...), post away!

The golden ratio is 1.618 and is basically obtained from rational distances of shapes

Also this Golden ratio is "the rule of nature" by measuring and dividin certain parts of the body you can obtain the Golden Ratio.
