Exoticizing Pi
Elevating the constant π to a transcendental level of mathematical or metamathematical (or philosophical) appreciation, with no regard to practical applications—savoring the Platonic ideal of pi that transcends the five senses.
A number of mathematical purists (or spiritually inclined number theorists) secretly love to exoticizing pi when they let loose of their personal or societal inhibitions—when they desire to be in that so-called state of “pi nirvana.”

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
