Golden Ratio Poster

I’ve been tinkering with movies etc today, and (while I was waiting for things to render) played about with one of the stills and made a poster.

I don’t know if I’ll ever turn it into an actual poster.

If anyone is interested though – let me know how big you want it, and I’ll do some costings etc.

Alternatively, I could just send you an epic big file and you could get someone local to print it out for you.

I made one with black at the sides for Instagram, because they (for reasons that remain unexplained) only use square photos. Just like the ones taken by no cameras anywhere in the entire universe ever.

Anyone with a calculator can see that the formula does not =1.618
It equals 1.59805
Moreover, the correct formula is:
(1+ square root of 5)/2

Have myself and Wikipedia made a mistake?

If I rewrite that code in Javascript

var x = 1;

for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) x = Math.sqrt(1 + x);

console.log(x);

It outputs 1.6180285974702324

What am I missing?
