These tree barks just happened to arrange themselves in this pattern on the pavement. It acted as a conversation starter with my friend, who noticed how they look almost like an infinity symbol. My friend then went on to say how he’s always wondered about the mysterious nature of infinity, and that if you had a sequence on numbers that goes [1, 2, 3, ...] and [10, 20, 30, ...], the sum of the numbers in each set would be infinity, but the sum of [10, 20, 30, ...] would be larger than that of [1, 2, 3, ...]. ‘There’s probably a mathematical way to prove it, but I’ll take his word for it.
I told him that because of that (arguably) fascinating conversation, I had to take a picture of the conversation starter for posterity.
