God, that would look beautiful on my dorm wall. If you can make a poster from it I will buy it in an instant.

Pretty. And I like that it's not just pretty, but also a visualization of some interesting math. What did you use for the sequence of rectangle heights?

1 pic: the first height is casual, and others are proportional

2 pic: if the first one is unit square, then others are: sqr(1 + 1/2²), sqr(1 + 1/2² + 1/3²),.. the "last one" is so П/sqr(6)
