Rational Art is a project to bring the artistic beauty of Science, Engineering and Math to a wider audience. As pure generative art, these images are created solely with computer code. No base images or multiple layers are used to generate or seed the collections. Each product is unique.
Why so many collections? Rather than making one (a very boring number) large collection of different items, we have decided to split them into smaller more manageable collections. We are beginning with six collections as 6 is the first non-prime, Superior highly composite number. Enjoy!
The initial project worked on the problem of calculating irrational numbers to a lot of decimal places (millions of digits in some cases). Having solved this and proving it was possible to generate aesthetically pleasing abstract artwork, gave us the first 6 collections of NFTs.
PHASE II will take this a step further to create animations of turning these raw numbers into works of art. We will take these large data sets and produce animation of these numbers turning into colour images.
We will start with 256 digits and work our way up to at least 4096 digits. Again, these animations will be produced only using code (pure generative art) and of course each animation will be unique. We hope to drop these videos NFTs after 21st June 2022.
PHASE III Will delve deeper into the actual content of the NFT and make a more personal connection than the original NFTs. We hope to be able to further personalise the images by highlighting particular sequences of digits in the artwork (your birthday or an anniversary for example).
We will also be making NFTs that can be joined together while keeping the sequence of digits intact (rather like a jigsaw puzzle). The NFT itself becomes a texel of an even larger image. Collecting these texel NFTs will allow you to make a NFT colleciton with millions rather than thousands of decimal places of a particular number. We expect to release these NFTs by 23rd September 2022.

Our prints of π come in many different colour palettes that reflect your aesthetic. From cool blues to warm terracotta, all colour schemes are inspired by famous scientists, artists, mythology and human achievement.
π is perhaps the most famous irrational number and is defined as the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. We all know how to start reciting π:
3.1415926535897932384626433832...
Each digit of π is represented by a particular colour. Once you are familiar with your print you will be able to recite the digits of π just by looking at the image.
The prints are available in many sizes for you to frame. They typically contain over a thousand digits of our favourite irrational number.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Ægir" theme. This theme was inspired by Norse mythology, Ægir is the personification of the sea.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Aodh" theme. This theme was inspired by Celtic mythology. Aodh is the Celtic god of fire and the eldest son of the Lir, the god of the sea.
Aodh, and variants (like Aidan) is a common first name for boys in Ireland and Scotland and means "fire".
Hugh is an anglicized version of this name.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Corundum" theme. This theme was inspired by the mineral Corundum
Corundum is a crystalline form of Aluminium oxide and is a gemstone. Both Rubies and Sapphire are types of Corundum.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Cotta" theme. Cotta is the Latin word for baked or cooked as in the term terracotta for unglazed, fired clay pottery.
For lovers or warm tones everywhere.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Disco" theme. This theme was inspired by the 1970’s.
While the "grim decade" gets a bad press when compared to the swinging sixties of greedy eighties. We remember the Oil crisis and global instability.
Disco was a shining cultural light at this time, not to mention the bulk of the Apollo moon landings, the first email, Atari, The Brady Bunch, Led Zeppelin, Elton John, Star Wars, Jaws and Grease.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Erdős" theme. This theme was inspired by Paul Erdős (26 March 1913 – 20 September 1996) a famous Hungarian mathematician and one of the most prolific creators of mathematical conjectures in the 20th century.
He published around 1,500 mathematical papers and collaborated widely. These collaborations gave rise to the to the use of an Erdős number, the number of steps in the shortest path between a scientist and Erdős in terms of co-authorships.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Forest" theme. This theme was inspired by the great rainforests of the world..
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Fruitcake" theme. This theme is a salute to all the bakers of the world.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Gauss" theme. This theme was inspired by Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss (30 April 1777 – 23 February 1855)
Gauss was a German mathematician and physicist and oftentimes considered to be the greatest mathematician of all time. He is also affectionately known as Princeps mathematicorum.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Hamilton" theme. This theme was inspired by William Rowan Hamilton (4 August 1805 – 2 September 1865).
He was an Irish mathematician & Astronomer. His work included a reformulation of Newtonian mechanics, now called Hamiltonian mechanics. In pure mathematics, he is best known as the inventor of quaternions.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Huygens" theme. This theme was inspired by Christiaan Huygens (14 April 1629 – 8 July 1695).
Huygens was a Dutch mathematician, physicist, astronomer and inventor. Huygens made major contributions in optics and mechanics. He discovered Saturn's moon Titan and invented the pendulum clock.
A revolutionary mathematician and physicist, Huygens was the first to idealize a physical problem by a set of parameters then describe it mathematically. He is considered the first theoretical physicist.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Indigo" theme. This is essentially a monochromatic theme. The digits are represented by altering hues of indigo rather than using distinct colours.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Jimi" theme. This is again a monochromatic theme with the digits are represented by altering hues of the base colour.
We call this theme Jimi in celebration of Jimi Hendrix and his 1967 hit purple haze.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Le Mans" theme. This print was inspired from the golden age of 24h car racing and in particular the rivalry between Ferrari and Ford.
To celebrate great automotive engineering, this print has echoes of the Gulf livery GT-40 and salutes the battle between Phil Remington, Ken Miles, Mauro Forghieri and Lorenzo Bandini.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Lir" theme. This theme was inspired by Celtic mythology. Lir is the god of the sea and father of Aodh. Lir is the Celtic equivalent of the Norse deity Ægir.
The Children of Lir is a popular faerie tale in Ireland.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Lovelace" theme. This theme was inspired by Ada Lovelace (10 December 1815 – 27 November 1852) a British mathematician.
Ada Lovelace is chiefly remembered for her work on Charles Babbage's proposed mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. She published the first algorithm intended to be carried out by such a machine and is therefore widely considered to be the world's first computer programmer.
The programming language Ada, created on behalf of the United States Department of Defense, was named after her.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Olympic" theme. At Rational Art we salute the pursuit of perfection..
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Pedon" theme. Pedon (πέδον) is the Greek word for "soil".
This print is inspired by the earthy tones of nature.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Pollock" theme. This theme was inspired by Paul Jackson Pollock (January 28, 1912 – August 11, 1956).
Pollock was an American painter and a major figure in the abstract expressionist movement.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Pride" theme.
This print salutes humanity in all its diversity.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Ramanujan" theme. This theme was inspired by Srinivasa Ramanujan (22 December 1887 – 26 April 1920), probably the most famous Indian mathematician.
Although he had almost no formal training, he made substantial contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions.
Ramanujan initially developed his own mathematical research in isolation. After some correspondence with G. H. Hardy, Ramanujan studied in Cambridge and became a Fellow of Trinity College and a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS). He died in 1920 at the age of 32.
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Taiga" theme. This theme was inspired by the great coniferous forests of the world..
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Ukraine" theme. This theme was inspired by the plight of Ukraine.
The colours of this theme are not simply the yellows and blues we normally associate with Ukraine, we also include the green of Kharkiv and the Violet of the cloak of the archangel Michael (Kyiv).
1,023 digits of π represented as coloured texels with our "Vintage" theme.
This theme was inspired by the colours of the 1940s and 1950s for a little bit of nostalgia.
Our prints of e (Euler’s number) come in many different colour palettes that reflect your aesthetic. From cool blues to warm terracotta, all colour schemes are inspired by famous scientists, artists, mythology and human achievement.
e is perhaps the second most famous irrational number and is defined as either the base of natural logarithims or as the limit of (1 + 1/n)n as n approaches infinity
e crops up in many fields such as physics, finance and zoology. It controls how much interest you pay on a loan and how quickly a virus spreads in a pandemic. It approximates:
2.7182818284590452353602874713...
Each digit of e is represented by a particular colour. Once you are familiar with your print you will be able to recite the digits of e just by looking at the image.
The prints are available in many sizes for you to frame. They typically contain over a thousand digits of this overlooked but important number.
1,023 digits of e represented as coloured texels with our "Ægir" theme. This theme was inspired by Norse mythology, Ægir is the personification of the sea.
1,023 digits of e represented as coloured texels with our "Aodh" theme. This theme was inspired by Celtic mythology. Aodh is the Celtic god of fire and the eldest son of the Lir, the god of the sea.

Our prints of φ, (the Golden Ratio) come in many different colour palettes that reflect your aesthetic. From cool blues to warm terracotta, all colour schemes are inspired by famous scientists, artists, mythology and human achievement.
φ is defined as a ratio of two numbers that is also the ratio of the sum of the numbers to the largest number, i.e. φ=a/b=(a+b)/a.
As φ is considered an asthetically pleasing proportion, it appears in works of art, architecture and physics. It approximates:

| √2 to 46 decimal places, with a colour scheme inspred by Srinivasa Ramanujan |
These images vary in size and display √2 from 255 (28-2) to 92,670 (28x28x 1.414 - 2) decimal places. Three aspect ratios are used (1:1, 1:414 & 1.414:1) with 24 (24+23) different colour themes. Each colour theme is inspired from subjects such as famous mathematicians, artists and scientists to mythological gods.
With an aspect ratio of √2, these NFT fit exacly onto ISO 216 standard paper sizes (A4,A5,A3 etc..) making them the perfect display format. We started dropping this collection on OpenSea on the 4th April (the 14th week of the year). Two examples that will be in the collection are shown below:
