Here is a great base layer to start with. Absolute Madness (zjulia function viewer) Have Fun!

What can you do with it? I'd love to see!

Hey folks!

I recently started a twitter account at twitter.com/BreakTheBeta

When I am not glued to a fractal, I can often be found beta testing new games. This account is where I share my findings. If you like news about free to play games, mmo's, rpg's, and other geek related fun, stop on by.

Hope to you there!

Fractals have always held a certain fascination for me. For a long time, it has been a hobby that remained in relative obscurity. Often one would lose the message, explaining the technical details. Not unlike a painter, in a world that had never seen paint. These past few years however, I have seen an immense explosion in the use of fractals, and especially the use of their particular concepts to convey emotions.

Today, I found another such example of incredibly fine, fractal use in media. www.meshuggah.net/ has some amazing web site art, and I thought perhaps you would like to see it as well. I have seen more and more of this type of art, hopping off the underground posters and onto cd covers, websites, and into movies.

Truly, it is an exciting time to be creating fractals.

If you have a moment to explore the subject, I suggest hopping on over to fractalcurves.com to learn more.

I think you might enjoy it.

Cheers!

This weeks Inspiration Station features the Faber brothers, Joel and Michael. I doubt they need much introduction, so I will let their work speak for me.

Hands down, MichaelFaber produces some of the best flames on the net.



And my personal favorite from his gallery:


JoelFaber too, seems to have a flair for the mathematic.  Not to be outdone, his gallery is also full of gems.


And my personal favorite from his gallery:


Outside of their fantastic artwork, both have worked hard to bring new variations to the apophysis community. So pay their galleries a vist, you won't be disappointed.

Cheers for now!
Chris.
