Alice in FractalLand

Stimulus, Video, Visualization
A stunning animated slideshow which explores sequences, fractals, Fibonacci sequence, the golden ratio, Pascal's Triangle, and more. The text at the bottom explains each concept very clearly. The maths of Nature, of the real world, is emphasised. The text says 'It seems that the Land of Mathematics is even more curious and mysterious than Wonderland. Only that it is real...'
