Hey, ever notice how some scenes in films or books lean on perfect symmetry to make the story feel tighter—like a mirrored hallway or a character reflected in another?
Symmetry cuts the noise. A mirrored hallway forces the eye to follow a straight line, eliminating distractions. It’s a tool, not decoration, and a story can use it to push momentum, not to dazzle.
Exactly, just like in that classic film noir where the hero walks through a hallway of mirrors, each reflection echoing past choices – symmetry strips the clutter and lets the story’s pulse beat clear and true.
Mirrors double the path; the hero sees the same line, no detours, just a clean feed of decisions.
