Geometric progression

The aesthetics of numbers in geometric progression:

1 = 1
1 = 1/2 + 1/2
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/4
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/8
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/16
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/32
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/64
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128 + 1/128
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128 + 1/256 + 1/256
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128 + 1/256 + 1/512 + 1/512
1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128 + 1/256 + 1/512 + 1/1024 + 1/1024
...

1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 1/128 + 1/256 + 1/512 + 1/1024 + 1/2048 + ...
