Mesmerizing Video of the Day: 3D-Printed Fibonacci Zoetrope Sculptures

Fibonacci-Zoetrope-Sculptures

This mesmerizing video features 3d-printed zoetrope sculptures designed by Stanford University teacher, John Edmark. The shapes are generated based on Fibonacci numbers, the same relationship you will find in pinecones, and sunflowers. Zoetropes traditionally rely on a strobe light for the human eye to perceive the animation; this video employs a fast shutter to achieve the same effect.

Watch the video below!
