This is VERY cool stuff! I have been working through "the Diagram - Harmonic Geometry" by Adam Tetlow. It is amazing how many ratios can come out of a square with some diagonal lines drawn through it, and the amazing frequency of 3-4-5 triangles that form themselves within it. I had no idea how many things would develop out of collections of circles! I suppose it should not surprise any of us--The universe is dripping with linkages and order that pops up out of apparent chaos. ;-)
You and other readers may be interested in this article from 2013 about Chemistry by Number Theory by Boeyens:
Even if your math skills are limited, it is well worth grazing through the PDF just to look at the pictures-- The diagram that fits the planets of our Solar System neatly onto two Fibonacci curves blew me away!

PS-- to answer your question-- Of course we are not tired of geometry! ;-)
