Video of Fern Hunt Mathematician

It’s #FernFriday! 🌿 Today the word is fiddlehead. The unfurling frond of a fern. Say that 10x fast! 🤪 . Did you know ancient mathematicians were very interested in fiddleheads? 🧐 . There are two kinds of spirals described when talking about fiddleheads. The first - the spiral of Archimedes or the equable spiral. 🌀 It was named after the Greek mathematician. Think of a flat coiled rope. The other (found in fiddleheads) is the equiangular spiral 🌀 , described by the French mathematician Rene

$The Barnsley fern is a famous example of a fractal, a mathematical object that exhibits self-similarity at different scales. It was introduced by mathematician Michael Barnsley in 1988 as a way to demonstrate how simple iterative rules can generate incredibly complex and natural-looking shapes. Unlike traditional geometric figures, the Barnsley fern is created using an iterated function system (IFS)—a set of affine transformations applied repeatedly to points on a plane.
