The Floral X-rays of Brendan Fitzpatrick are just breathtaking. Check out more at the link. Nature is full of numerical and geometric patterns, some we can see from the outside and some require that we take on a new perspective (just look at how those rose petals are stacked!!). Some of those patterns are probably coincidental, but some of them are likely a result of nature’s inner workings. Want to explore more? Take a ride with Vi Hart through the mathematical patterns of pinecones, pineapples and flowers. And then discover the multitudes of mathematical patterns in nature with Cristóbal Vila’s amazing video Nature by Numbers. What do you think? Are these patterns coincidental or are they proof of some inherent design rules in biology and nature?
