Pictures created using different fractal generators.

About: Quaint Symmetries (formerly know as third apex to fractovia) is dedicated to fractals as a form of artistic expression. It also provides information and discussions about fractals and art, plus additional resources on how to create these pictures.

Definition: A fractal is a figure or geometric shape that displays repeating patterns at different scales. Some of its properties are: self-similarity, recursion, scalability, and fractal dimension.

Fractal art: A creative expression that uses fractal properties to generate mainly still images, animations, and music. It typically involves a computer, software, mathematical algorithms, and human input for composition.
