The Eden Project's new Education Building
The Eden Project in St. Austell, between Plymouth and Penzance in SW England and 50 miles from Land's End, has some wonderfully impressive greenhouses based on geodesic domes (called biomes) built in an old quarry.
They are building a £13 million new Education

Ned May has generated some beautiful pictures based on Fibonacci Spirals using Visual Basic (an example is shown here on the right).

John Biles, a computer scientist at Rochester university in New York State used the series which is the number of sets of Fibonacci numbers whose sum is n to make a piece of music. He wrote about it and has a link to hear the piece online: http://www.it.rit.edu/~jab/Fibo98/PGA-1.mov The series looks like this:
It has some fractal properties in that the graph can be seen in sections, each beginning and ending when the graph dips down to lowest points on the y=1 line. Each section begins and ends with a copy of the section two before it (and moved up a bit), and in between them is a copy of the previous section again moved up.
