    With the disclaimer that I haven;t read the book you mentioned, it sounds like he's saying elements with less direct relationships will be visually more interesting. For instance think about a simple composition with two shapes, it would be more visually appealing most of the time to make one shape 1.6 times the other one (the 5 to 8 ratio he mentioned which is also the golden spiral) than to just make one twice the size.
