BBC FOUR's Night of Numbers continues with a short film looking at the
golden ratio: 1.61803399.

What do the nautilus seashell, the Great Pyramid, and The Mona Lisa have in
common? They are all feature Phi otherwise known as The Golden Ratio. It is
the number that links a pineapple, Leonardo da Vinci and the breeding
patterns of rabbits. This film examines its extraordinary occurrence in
nature and art.

  • Thumbs up if you have been searching PHI after reading The DaVinci Code xD

  • PHI is the result of quantum spin, think of a spirograph. Imagine the outer ring as the aether, which is a rotating magnetic field which has a quantum spin of 2. This encapsulates angular momentum which has a quantum spin of 1/2 and makes matter which is the inner ring. Now start rotating the inner ring.

    This ratio between the two creates PHI at the second cycle and as you continue you get the wonderful flower like designs.

  • Nature???????????????????

  • @MinorCheese777 Hello and welcome to the future! Today, even YOU, can use Wikipedia! This new sensational progress of the internet is ground breaking! A simple type-in in your address bar will quickly take you to the Land of Wiki. I wish you good luck in the spelling of "Phi" while you are gone on your journey, may the future me be enlightened by your extraordinary findings!

  • for some reason I swore it was 1.28... I asked some other kid who read off wikipedia it was 1.28 also... hmmm.

  • I'm here cuz I'm reading the da vinci code for the first time lol... interesting stuff : )

  • @Sw0rdm3nz Since there is no such thing as "fundamental quantums of energy" and the nuclear theory of the atom is a fraud, there is no foundation for the rest of these false theories and mythematics built upon false foundations. Russellian Science explains Cosmology in terms which most people can understand failry easy, because it is based on Sacred Geometry and the Electric Universe as opposed to mythematics of the false gravity based einsteinian model which has been demolished by CERN recently

  • @77GSlinger

    Don't hate.

    he meant mechanical quantum state...

    its fairly a difficult concept to explain in words and let alone when you are confined to 500 characters.

  • @junglelord Quantum spin??? LMFAO! Thanks for a good laugh, quackademia is full of them!

  • @paduraru95 i just did this for extra credit for school
