THE FIBONACCI SEQUENCE PROJECT
My art spiral represents the Fibonacci sequence, because it uses the growth factor, also known as the Golden Ratio. The Golden Ratio is an infinite and irrational number, approximately 1.618. If you divide any term in the Fibonacci sequence by the previous term, eventually you get closer and closer to . The art spiral I created is also known as the Golden spiral. I created it by drawing squares with the lengths each a Fibonacci number in a consecutive and circular motion of the previous square. Then I used a compass to draw arcs across each of the squares, with the radius the length of the Fibonacci number length. The Fibonacci sequence is found in numerous things, including nature and computing. Along with the Golden Ratio, the Fibonacci sequence is what makes our body and nature proportionate and aesthetically pleasing.
