This is really cool and very mesmerizing. The attention to detail in this is absolutely amazing.

WARNING: If you are potentially subject to having acid trip flashbacks (especially if your name is Termy) you should avoid watching this video.

ENJOY!!!

Status: offline 		Very cool. Reminded me of not so much acid trips, but maybe dropping some "E" back in the day. . Would have been cool to sit in a room like that and just roll for a few hours. Oh being grown up..sucks.

Well I'l have you know that I won't be watching your cool little vid until the "dude" makes his delivery.

I will be available for comment at that time.

T^T

Reminds me of a film I saw about "space-filling curves" as a member of the Math Club at Uni. An infinite curve bounded by a square.

Math is fascinating. Pity so few Amis can't even make change. They could never grasp this.

Status: offline 		I used to write a little bit of Qbasic. These things are generally a nearly endless loop in a program. One formula repeated over and over and represented graphically. I never got into the graphics aspect of programming, but I can grasp the concept of what goes on here.

Seems to me this is just another form of art. Instead of brushes and a canvas, a keyboard is the medium.

As for me...I have a headache now

Status: offline 		this is really cool. i don't know enough of the math behind the Mandelbrot set to get into it, but from a purely aesthetic perspective, it's one of my favorites (thanks to my brother who was the one of the two of us who reeeeeeally got into math).

here's a wiki article about Mandelbrot, for anyone inclined to read it.
i like "seahorse valley" ^_^
