The Face
In class today we watched part of the BBC production, The Human Face, with John Cleese. We decided to focus on the Beauty Mask created by Dr. Stephen Marquardt. This mask was constructed through the use of mathematics and the "Golden Proportion" to determine ideal beauty. We were able to go online and fit the mask to various beuatiful celebrities after watching the video and also view short online segments that talked about the math behind the concept of the golden proportion, phi, and the fibbonacci sequence.
My challenge for you today is to see if you can add to the fibbonacci sequence. First I will explain how it works and start you off. Then I hope that each additional comment added to this post will add the next number in the sequence. (No being greedy, just put one down and then let someone do the next one... If a mistake is made, feel free to addyour correction and then we can go from there.)
The fibbonacci sequence is a list of numbers in which the next number is determined by adding the two previous values.
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, etc....
1 + 1 = 2
1 + 2 = 3
2 + 3 = 5
3 + 5 = 8
5 + 8 = 13
8 + 13 = 21
13 + 21 = 34
21 + 34 = ?
When you comment, please show the equation that you used to determine the next value. Let's see how far we can get with these numbers.
Thanks for a great class today! I was happy to see that you were into the movie and the math background. We have the mini-assessment tomorrow. Be sure to complete the practice paper so that you come in prepared and ready! I will take questions at the beginning of class before we do our class assignment!
