What It Is
Golden-angle sunflower spiral --- successive seeds placed at 137.508° (= 360°/phi²), the most irrational angle. Quantized angular positions carry genuine quasicrystalline spectral structure with peaks at golden-ratio frequencies
Interpretation
Standard analysis sees: rich, high-entropy values; anti-correlated (alternating); anti-persistent; blue spectrum (high-frequency power); strongly periodic; time-irreversible (slow rise, sharp collapse); homoskedastic; monofractal; low-dimensional; stationary. The atlas additionally detects Penrose (Quasicrystal):long_range_order, Time Reversibility:ordinal_reversal_distance.
