Fibonacci Blocks: Fun with Phi & the Golden Ratio

Post by MachineGhost »

Very neat!

[quote=https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/fibo ... den-ratio/]My name is Luke Hamilton. I’m a 16 year old student in Bali, and I created the Fibonacci Blocks as my grade 10 personal project. After I created my prototype set, many people wanted to buy a set, so I would love your support so that I can go into production.

These blocks are designed using the golden ratio. This is the natural proportion found in works of art from the pyramids to the Taj Mahal. Get a set for yourself, a friend, your family or gift a set to your teacher or your school![/quote]

He should team up with Ahmed the clock maker.

Luke could make the sets, and Ahmed could take them out of the package and put them in a different package.  They would be co-creators!

Suggest they be financed by a Nigerian bank that will handle your credit card or checking account payment for only a small surcharge.  Send in your account numbers and passwords so they can verify the exact amount of the surcharge before finalizing the transaction.  ;)

Can you imagine a kid here in Texas telling his teacher that the stuff in his briefcase is a set of Fibonacci Blocks.  He would be expelled for life or immediately be nominated Valedictorian.  By the way didn't Ahmed and his family relocate to a more friendly country?  Hope he didn't take his briefcase on the flight.  They might not be as cordial as the local police department........
