3D Mandelbrot fractal, or Mandelbulb....look familiar??

Migrated topic.

Gamma I just started working on a new animation. This time it will be several minutes, better quality and much more amazing. I will also use my own music. It might take a while until it's finished though. At least 2 days for making all keyframes maybe longer. And I really cannot say how long rendering would take. Anywhere from 4-10 days depending on quality.

oey needs too long for the render.. but i can understand ofcrs eheheh :p
btw this "octahedron_2" which is the last image u attached here is very succesful stuff.. congrats
 
Thanks everyone! I've allways found fractals to have a very psychedelic feeling to them. And some things can look and feel very familiar.
Also the amount of architecture there's to be found in the mandelbox fractal is just unbelievable and mind expanding.

Friend of a friend makes these ones...


I personally prefer the julia set type fractals they seem less chaotic & more harmonious

I guess my point is that infinity is rationalized pretty well through mathematics. Experiencing infinity is the tricky part.

Your actually always directly experiencing it ;)
 
Wow, that was incredible, Stevowitz! Thank God the front and back were labelled, or I would have gotten lost.

totally forgot to post this here. My second animation! took 57hours to render.
Quality is not so good because of problems with the video compression but I will try to fix that soon.
 
That is a beautiful creation Sativa Soul!!:) I especially enjoy the way every surface seem to dicreetly pulsate all the colours of the rainbow (or is that just my crappy screen playing tricks on me?:lol: )
 
you saw that right Kodama :) I don't know why it does that, it might be a property or glitch in the formula but when animating this kind of fractal it cycles through the gradient. Nice effect indeed although I hadn't anythinh to do with it :p
 
saw these...I think on Yahoo .... today. At first I thought they came from Mandel3D...but no, they came from....well, see if you can figure it out!
 
hopefully the Mandebulb-like pics are attached to this post....they range from beetle legs to God knows what..

First, that rambunctious European Space Agency Cassini satellite photographs a giant methane lake on Saturn's moon Titan, and now it spots active volcanic geysers on its shores....at least, they are fractally active!

Michael Barnsley has some intersting ideas about this Blue_Velvet.
He's the one who lead the research of fractal compression in the 80s (what american military sattelites use for transferring large data files (mostly hi def sattelite images)) and the founder of Iterated Systems Inc. He's been working on the practical side of fractals for years and thinks in the future fractals will revolutionize technology in a way unimaginable to us today. I've heard him talk about this a few times but it's been a while so I can't give any more info on it. Googling his name might bring something up.
