Visualization of Pi being Irrational (the animation could go on forever)

Prepare for a visually striking journey through the mathematical concept of Pi! Ever wondered what it means for Pi to be irrational? This mesmerizing animation offers a unique perspective on the relationship between the continued fractions and Pi's never-ending, non-repeating decimal expansion.

Coupled with the beautiful sounds of Vivaldi's Four Seasons, the video captures the almost tantalizing moments where Pi appears to be close to rational approximations, but then veers away, reinforcing its "irrational" nature. Watch as the animated trail narrowly "misses" hitting certain key points—these are the moments Pi eludes its approximations like 22/7 or 333/106. If you find math to be the closest thing to actual magic we have, this video will captivate your imagination.

📐 Equation at the Bottom Explained:

You'll notice an equation at the bottom of the screen; it represents the complex domain of a circle and spiral. For every one rotation the inner circle completes, the outer circle does Pi rotations. In this way, the dot never lines up exactly with its starting point—emphasizing Pi's irrationality.

💡 Fun Fact:

At various timestamps, the animation highlights when the dot 'almost' aligns with its starting point—these are the moments when Pi misses some of its continued fraction approximations. For instance, at timestamp ~342, it narrowly misses the integer "3". At ~2520, it sways away from 22/7, and so on.

🎶 Background Music:

The captivating background music is from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons composition, focusing on "Summer". A perfect accompaniment that adds another layer of beauty to the video.
