Very nice! I was thinking about a golden ratio project of my own but it hasn't gotten anywhere yet.

Because it's the ratio between the lengths of the rectangle formed that is 'golden' - or at least; as the size of the spiral gets bigger, so the ratio between the sides becomes a better and better approximation to the golden ratio - look for examples of the golden ratio in architecture and nature.

Ah - the Golden Section and just a hint of Fibonacci. This is a wonderful topic for use in school (trying <impossibly> to avoid the good old 1.618 or 0.618). I'd wondered if anyone had tackled the maths of this in Scratch. I look forwards to studying and learning from your project.
