Stranger Than Fiction

The scene that I realized this time I saw it was the fibonacci sequence screen change. As he eats his lunch the screen turns into two side by side frames, then a third that is a square as wide as the two but together, then another continually making larger rectangles. The significance here is that the fibonacci sequence is the Greek phi calculation of perfection. Also an explanation of the biking child and the mysterious woman. When one tries to write, whether song, story or movie. As a part comes together, small inspirations come and you think, I want a child to be the cause, this child should ride a bike, it should be on the road, nay the sidewalk, no road is good, there should also be another lady involved, a government worker, a bus driver, he will be hit by a bus and so on. They are not so much a motif as a sign of the author's mutating ideas about his death.
