Symmetry breaking symmetry

Abstract

Scarcely any term connects art and science more closely than symmetry. This was already a theme in ancient times, as is found in Vitruvius, for example. On the beach of an unknown island, a shipwrecked traveler finds neatly arranged geometric figures. Can he conclude from this that there is an intelligent creator (perhaps even a god)?
