aesthetics
Keywords: Culture & History
The aesthetics of Go are almost as important as the play in some ways. The harmonisation of the board and pieces, the materials used, etc., can be for some almost as important as the game (i.e. never use a yuki stone set on a cheap wooden board or don't use thin plastic stones on a table kaya board, etc.). Also, as many a beginner's book points out, there is aesthetic harmony in the contrasts of wood and stones, line and circle, black and white.--TimBrent This is a copy of the living page "aesthetics" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
