How to make Fibonacci soup?
You need :
1. Yesterdays soup
2. Day before yesterdays soup
And then to make Fibonacci soup for tomorrow you have to take today's soup and yesterday's soup.
But wait... how can you use yesterday's soup if you already used it for today's soup?
This is so funny why is no one liking this

What’s neat about plants growing with the golden angle between their leaves or other parts is that they don’t have to be at the golden angle at the start. Leaves can adjust over time to maximize sunlight, settling into the golden ratio rather than forming it automatically.
yes@@TheUnitAce
which is why it should have been mentioned that at least one of the most blatnatly obvious mechanisms for this is phototropism instead of some magnetism mechanism that was mentioned.
They follow a natural mathematical sequence that gets marginally closer and closer to the golden ratio over time.
The sequence can become infinity close to the golden ratio, but it will never BE the golden ratio.
Mixing logic with relativism. Nice.

In Stell Ball Run(jojo part 7) they achieve the perfect rotation, by spinning steel balls(as well as nails) in the golden ratio, which when done perfectly will never stop spinning.

Thanks for explaining this in depth! One of my past art teachers seemed to obsess over the golden ratio, telling us to look for it in art, and most of the time when they pointed it out in works, I just couldn't see it or things didn't seem to line up perfectly, like the shell you mentioned. I've been wondering about it ever since, and finally, I have clarity!
I felt the same way. I was looking at and was so confused what I was missing, it felt like the curve and squares were just drawn onto random parts of buildings and art, guess I was right
It honestly feels likr they just nitpick spots that fit their argument. Sometimes they just out it into a spot with open air nothing to back it up.
Golden Ratio for art is BS. The actual necessary aspect is the concept of leading the eye around the canvas to retain attention and not lead the eye off the canvas elsewhere (unless that is the entire point of the work, which is another story). A lot of composition 'advice' regarding ratios and placement of content on a page is an attempt to "dumb down" or "simplify" everything into easily repeatable formulas, sort of like templates. Good for mass-produced and soul-less works, but not where/what you want to start off with if you are actually working with proper ideas/concepts that you want to convey
@@gaerekxenoscause plants actually use the golden ratio for maximum energy efficiency, do you think we might also should follow a ratio? Or are you saying that if we try to follow that ratio, we’ll never come close, so be natural in things?
I had a similar experience. Some people--educated people--just try to shoehorn this Fibonacci business into everything, like every significant ancient structure ever built.
A 5 to 6 proportion has an aesthetic quality for oil paintings I have preferred over the GR. Though for a long sided rectangle the GR is pristine. The GR enables much and is wondrous for designing a house, as it just makes everything seem to work quite easily. The GR really is an amazing phenomenon.
One number to rule them all!
This is spinning my head because it's too bizzare
I see what you did there

@@TheWanderstar I'm an uncultured swine and I don't know what you are talking about. Now go ahead and find the golden ratio in a cup of tea, please.
Math. Not even once.
I did pick the golden rectangle in the beginning, but only because I knew the "right" answer would be credit card shaped, so I looked for the most credit card looking rectangle... it didnt "feel" more special than the others. Everyone knows that the perfect rectangle shape is the one used for the A-series of paper sizes anyway, ie any rectangle with a ratio of 1:root 2
I love the fact that Derek paid tribute to Bolyai by mentionning him, even though he wasn't recognized as the cornerstone of the non-Euclidian geometry. We should appreciate people for who they are and thank them for doing their best.

Irrational numbers and ancient greeks bothered me until I realized what you mentioned in passing early in your video- "ratio" which requires two components. So it's not about the dividing of one into the other for a quotient but it is to consider the relationship itself which creates the geometric result. Geometry literally means "earth meausre'. It was decades ago now that I began to conceive of Phi as a geometric function and what fun I've had. The ancient architectures become clearer when you look through that lens. Great video and thank you for pushing through the myth a bit.

Fun fact: Jyotirlingam temples in India are built in the structure of the golden ratio, their description is also found in ancient scriptures which are much older than any of the greek mathematians.
PS, Manchester university conformed that gravity was stolen from an old saint's philosophy by newton. So take everything with a grain of salt
Lol. How in the heck does one "steal science"???? No one owns science.
As Newton himself famously said " I saw what I saw by standing on the shoulders of giants". EVERY advance in knowledge is built upon the knowledge from before
Newton in no way claimed to have invented the notion of gravity which is simply a name for the whatever causes a dropped rock to fall to the earth. Even today, the best physicists say that we understand little about gravity, but we know a lot about the effects of gravity.
But there was certainly no one before Newton who even remotely did what Newton did with the subject of the effects of gravity
So your next assignment would be to find that "old saints" work. Does it resemble, in any way, what Hewton came up with?? We use Newtons work for the ballistics required to confidently set a man on the moon. Could you do that with the old saints work? Do you even begin to understand what the old saint came up with? Newton had to invent a brand new branch of mathematics to even examine what he was learning. So I guess the old saint also invented "calculus", but we have erroneously accredited that to Newton? The poor dude! How totally wronged he was!
I LOVE this hilarious idea of people "stealing" science from others. Recently I interacted with a lady who claimed that Einsteins first wife came up with special relativity, but Einstein "stole it". Marconi "stole" radio from Tesla. (At any moment that Tesla was doing ANYTHING, there were a dozen scientists around the world doing exactly the same thing). It goes on and on, and gets a bit tiring
I use PHI in my art cause it makes things just look nice. I just like rules based starting points for creative endeavours and PHi is one of my go to rules.

I love PBS and never touched one of the math videos until now. This guy right here is the proof to "you don't hate math/are bad at math, you just got taught the wrong way".
Learning math takes hard work and patience. A bad teacher can make it harder, but nothing makes up for hard work and patience.
I mean, I wouldn't say you really learn anything about math here. It's a good, concise explanation of the golden ratio that debunks some myths about it, but the math is used is very simple, and I say that as someone who hates math.
Fundamentally you're not learning mathematics per se here. You're not gonna be able to understand most maths any better
I gave up on maths of my own will because it was sucking up too much time, that's literally what everyone does to anything they don't like. The only reason anyone is bad at anything is non engagement
Everyone has the same building blocks in their brain and can all learn math to the same degree, it boils down to if your interested or not.

All these types of sequences c*a[n]=b*a[n-1]+c*a[n-2] have a relationship with quadratics. The cool thing is, if you do algebra you can get values (cos(pi/n)...). The interesting part about this is at n>6. The values start becoming complex. Not all of them are complex. There is a composite number type thing going on. Anyway, this is the part where I remind you that there are no general solutions after fourth degree polynomials. There are methods that are congruent with these algebra sequences, but there is no general solution for all polynomials.

One doesn't always know all the history of something before it gets named. That's especially true in mathematics where the same thing can be discovered independently. For example, what we call the Pythagorean theorem was known over a thousand years before Pythagoras in Old Babylonia, and known in both India and China about the time Pythagoras lived.
It wasn't well known until recently that the Fibonacci sequence appeared in other places before Leonardo Pisano Fibonacci (1170-1250) included his rabbit problem in his arithmetic book, Liber Abaci, in 1202.
About 50 years earlier Hemachandra (1089-1173) counted the number of ways a line of poetry can be composed of short syllables of length 1 and long syllables of length 2. A line of length 1 can only be a short syllable; one of length 2 either two shorts or 1 long; etc. The same sequence 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ... results. Apparently Gopala had studied these numbers in about 1135, other Indian mathematicians as early as the 7th century, and perhaps even Pingala, the author of the Chandaḥśāstra, centuries before that.
what even more cool is that the size of the leaves as they grow up and out are PHI in size to the preceding leaf. This idea of Nature is to be as proficient as possible while exerting the least amount of energy so though not everything is exactly Phi, Natures strives to be. !
TIL why “irrational numbers” are called “irrational.” I always thought it was a strange name but it makes a lot more sense now that I know it comes from “ratio.”

This episode went by really fast. Very interesting stuff I didn't know, even if I have heard of it before.
Stephen Wolfram of Mathematica has discussed this quite a bit: how the universe can start from such simple computation. I think what's really appealing here is that this is an interesting, seeming complicated number, and natural phenomenon that comes from very simple rules.
TL:DR
You are increasingly likely to find a golden ratio in things, if you increase the number of things you measure, and you increase the allowable error bars. This is true for any ratio
What really bothered me is that he did not use averages.
The golden ratio is a 'beautiful' proportion though, and just because we find stretched representations does not take away from why it is so intriguing in the first place.
Good tldr! In some cases, yes. In other cases, it's the most appropriate ratio for the situation. Similar to how e is the most natural exponential.

I remember as an engineering student before the magnificent invention of the Scientific Calculator by Hewlett Packard in the early 1970s doing math with a slide rule. Hard to believe the SR-71 was made before computers were as they are now, let alone calculators. Random processes do not pick the most efficient forms.
You got a subscribe from me literally 15 seconds into your hilarious intro. Well done sir XD
As a Greek person I feel a little bit happy about the fact he said "the Greeks AND the mathematicians" as if every Greek was just doin math as a hobby
We da smart people
Your central bank clearly doesn't do it for the past decade
@@putraduha3176 woah that took an abrupt turn
@@putraduha3176 Elaborate.
Good for you that you made name, Indians barely get any credit
Eh, yall mostly just rediscovered Babylonian stuff. Seriously, name a Greek math development off the top of your head: Pythagorean theorem? -Nah. Euclidian stuff? -Nah. The Greeks did some amazing work, don't get me wrong, but they aren't the only smart people out there by a long shot.

im so glad im not the only one learning for fun
As soon as you said a nautilus was a cut little shell floating around with a face full of spaghetti, I subscribed to your channel 😂
That intro is something I didn't know I needed
It always tickles me that the golden ratio is actually in fact an irrational number. It's like we can never have things just perfectly.
Maybe its the human construct of number thats wrong
There are loads of irrational numbers, that doesn't make phi that special.
The leaf one is such a good activity to do with students
School is prison lol

Every time I've read about the Fibonacci sequence in plants it was always stated as fact and never explained.
Thanks for finally explaining it.
Just love this...even this old brain is understanding your talk xxx
"I don't know who closely studies artichokes"
At that exact moment something died inside every food scientist watching this video.
That part where he made us choose a rectangle... I feel the pain of snapping those in place where it's perfectly aligned AND it felt like it was a magic trick that he knew what I picked
I had no single idea what to pick, lol.
The rhombic triacontahedron (used to make the seldom-used 30-sided die, among other things) has golden rhombuses as its faces. The diagonals of each face are in the golden ratio to each other. I find the 30-sided shape to be quite aesthetically pleasing.
8:44 It would've been really spooky if Kepler had discovered it 10 years later than he did.

Ok he went crazy after ONLY 1.618 SECONDS
This is the best PBS channel I feel confident in saying that after 2 videos
I don't know any geometry. But a 45 degree offset is .414. I acquired this number with a ruler, and I would say for a square with a size of 1, the diagonal is 1.414.
