Seed Phylotaxis is a visualization of science news, as commissioned by Seed, a science consultancy company.
Its structure (designed by Stefan Sagmeister), is derived from the Fibonacci Sequence and based on the Golden Ratio. The system presents the world’s latest science news as an interactive particle system, consisting of many small dots, each representing a single piece of news, chosen automatically by a computer program scouring the web — evolving the symbol’s identity every few hours.
