| When z=z²+c says something to you, that is what you were watching..., nah... about ! Discovered in 2009 the Mandelbulb is a 3-D version of the (possibly) wellknown "Mandelbrot" set. In fact it is a mathematical expression of complex numbers exhibiting a complicated structure at all scales. Yes, you may call them 'fractals', or (quasi) self-similar shapes. Some say that Nature uses fractals to design everything that is in it. From the quantum scale up to whole coastlines... | Since 2009 it is possible to plot 3-dimensional fractals with assistance of a fast PC and move through them. The movies show this. The movie at the top is done with Boxplorer in real-time with impressive results. You recognize the Mandebrot figure though. The second with a new version of Mandelbulb for Linux, Mac and Win PC's. You can download the programs and try for yourself. The possibilities are endless. The programs are free to use! |
