Playing with Infinity

This book will provide a fascinating read for anyone interested in number theory, infinity, math art, and/or generative art, and could be used a valuable supplement to any course on these topics. Along the way the author will demonstrate how infinity can be made to create beautiful 'art', guided by the development of underlying mathematics.
