It is so easy to stumble upon spirals while exploring the world of fractals, and it’s so easy to find them so appealing that every explorer is sure to end with a dozen of these wonderful creatures after each jump into the pools of never-ending images. This one was found using Tiera-Zon.
Choosing a name is not an easy task, even if what you’re naming is a modest website. From my point of view, it has to represent the site’s content and purpose –somehow–, which in this case is to showcase the fractal pictures and other related content I author occasionally. By definition, a name is an identification, or identifier, a means to distinguish the given from the rest of the world it relates to. And for that reason, the more unique, the better, first, because it won’t confuse visitors,…Continue Reading “Name divisions, dimensions and symmetries”
A few days ago I was saying how I think my pictures are kind of “traditional”, as in a little bit outmoded. And so they are… if you compare them to what people with more recent –sophisticated– fractal generators can do (the software used to render mine, long forgotten by their own authors, miraculously run in Windows 10). Even examining their style, anyone can assert they predate this millennium. With their coarse contours and somewhat eroded colors, they’re kind of too distant from today’s standards. But that’s what a style…Continue Reading “Quaint name for fractal dimensions”
I’ll be uploading some fractal pictures in the next few days. Most likely, I’ll organize them in galleries according to the date of creation. With all probability, it won’t be a feat to finish in a day since I’m going to render them again to a larger size because most of my original images were relatively small in order to save precious server space, too critical in the late 1990s. I’ll be testing if that makes sense; if not, will name them like I used to do in fractovia….Continue Reading “Testing”
