Crop Circle in Switzerland
Crop Circle with Fractal Pattern
I remembered how we talked in class about how the Cerne Giant in England ressembled a crop circle and I would like to address crop circles. A crop circle is a large scale pattern created by the flattening of a crop such as wheat, barley, or rye. There are many earth art works that use a similar method in its creation, but without a pattern. We covered earth art that was created by flattening grass or stepping through snow, really using the same general idea to create crop circles: indentations in the outermost "layer" of the earth. Although crop circles can be made with simple tools, they can be very complex. Like many earth art works, in order to see a crop circle in its entirety, one must see it from far above the land.
