This pen would be in the shape of a single helix that twists
wider and wider according to the golden mean ratio. So you
know how the joints in your fingers and then your hand and
then your forearm are all in golden mean ratio to
eachother,
so this pen (or paint brush handle or pistol handle
etc.)
would
spiral around your hand and wrist. My prototype flexible
wire fits the hand
quite nicely with three twists, one around the tip of the
index
finger, one around the base of that finger and the last going
under the thumb and around the wrist. The wire could be
a pen itself, or it could be a grip with a straight pen
attached. It could be for people
who don't have the use of their thumbs or just for extra
precision.
