Description: "The I Ching":http://www.ichingonline.net/about.php consists of 64 hexagrams. A hexagram is a figure composed of six stacked horizontal lines (爻 yáo), where each line is either Yang (an unbroken, or solid line), or Yin (broken, an open line with a gap in the center). There are 64 hexagrams in all, each representing an archetypal situation in life. I am working on recreating the following image using Processing http://baharna.com/iching/images/Plate2_Fig1_Hexagrams_FuHsi.gif "Code on Github":https://github.com/rupertrussell/iching001
Description: 渦 Uzu — The Vortex | Indigo Rope Knot Japanese Woodblock 渦 — Uzu. The vortex. The whirlpool. The pull that draws everything inward toward a still, silent center. This woodblock-style indigo knot is unlike any other in the series — open, wild, wind-torn. Thick rope strands fan outward in sweeping arcs, each one dragging the eye into a slow clockwise spin. The texture is raw and dry, like ink pressed into coarse grain at speed. Where other knots hold tight, Uzu releases. It moves. The kanji 渦 below names what you already feel looking at it. For those who find calm inside the chaos. No. 3 of 6 in the Puff Sumo Japanese Knots Series.
