Sunrise at the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands

No matter how long I live here in San Francisco, I will never get tired of looking at the Golden Gate Bridge. The view from the Marin Headlands is magnificent and from there, one can see the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco skyline. On the weekends, it’s full of tourists. On the weekdays, at dawn, it’s much more peaceful, with only a few people.

Manic Monday with Math and Geometry in Nature and Music

As another manic Monday rolls around, I felt that a bit of beauty was in order.

Math and geometry can be found throughout nature.  Music and math also have a very close relationship.  Here are a few video examples for your viewing pleasure.

The first video is a compilation of toroidal vortices. A smoke ring is an example of a toroidal vortex.  This video shows other examples.

This video shows the relationship between math and nature. No, it’s not boring. 🙂 It’s beautiful.

Ah, math and music. It’s a wonderful combination

No math or geometry. It’s just a wee bit of nature’s drama.
