Zenos Paradox Tapestries
Main Tag:
Description: "An infinite number of steps can add up to a finite distance. Zeno's 2,500-year-old puzzle meets the convergent geometric series, drawn as a square split again and again and as a track of shrinking jumps. Zeno of Elea's paradox of Achilles and the tortoise, solved with a halving square and the series 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + ... = 1. Each leap gets shorter, yet the race still ends. Infinity, made visual. For math teachers, physics and philosophy students, calculus lovers and anyone fascinated by infinity. A clever gift for nerdy friends, graduates and lifelong learners.
