Parastichy
Visualization of Patterns in Plants
Project Description:
This interactive visualization aims to show how spirals in nature are usually present in quantities that are part of the Fibonnaci sequence (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, ... ). The more spirals in a shape, the more intricate the shape.
If we count the number of parallel spirals in each direction we will get consecutive numbers from the Fibonacci sequence.
