6 Degrees of Separation, 2008 - 2009

The braids form a set of six number sequences. It is not only numbers I find fascinating but also the spaces between them (the degrees of separation).

The braids show the first sixty numbers of each sequence. Why sixty? … because sixty is a number of many parts … 'the ace of divisibility'.
