Abstract
This paper explores playing with different mathematical concepts in the creation of visually appealing objects. The concepts involved are the golden ratio, the Sierpinski gasket, and spirals. The golden ratio and spirals have both been a source of inspiration for mathematicians and artists for centuries. The Sierpinski gasket and variations are used. The goal is to explore different ways to create spirals made from variations of the Sierpinski gasket and that are also connected to the golden ratio.
