This is a book about infinity — specifically the infinity of numbers, and how one kind of infinity is greater than all the rest. Along the way the author will demonstrate how infinity can be made to create beautiful 'art', and how this process can help us to understand the fundamental nature of numbers. This book will provide a fascinating read for anyone interested in number theory, infinity, math art, and/or generative art, and could be used a valuable supplement to any course on these topics.

Features

  • Beautiful examples of generative art.
  • Accessible to anyone with a reasonable high school level of mathematics.
