Walnut Creek CDROM and Lee H Skinner proudly present Fractal Frenzy.
====================================================================
This CDROM has 2010 1024 x 768 x 256 fractal pictures created with
fractint. Explore the beauty of these creations.
One day I received in the mail my copy of Scientific American with
what at first glance at the cover appeared to be some aspect of a
solar corona. Instead, it was a fractal image of part of part of the
Mandelbrot set. When I then read the article and saw that this
beautiful picture (and others in the issue) was calculculated by
iterating with complex arithmetic on an absurdly simple formula (z
squared + c), I felt stunned, dumbfounded, flabbergasted - that such
richly decoritive beauty of such intricate complexity could itself
develop out of such a simple formula and algorithm.
