  • i think i just jizzed in 3D

  • some one should edit that scene from scanners were that guys head explodes. . . . . .

    at the end of this video.

  • Whenever I see a fracal video, I need to take about 300 Advil for the resulting migrane.

  • Some song that is designed to give you a heart attack or cardiac arrrest from shock ! I have a phobia !!

  • @willrandship Wrong. This is not about tweaking the colors. The shapes is this video do not exist at all in the traditional 2D Mandelbrot set. I called this 3D Mandelbrot set but the truth is that a real 3D Mandelbrot set does not exist, it is the holy grail of fractal explorers, but there are good mathematical reasons for it not to be possible (multiplication in 3D is not commutative). Google "Mandelbulb" for more information, and visit fractalforums! All the best.

  • @willrandship You wouldn't see much if you rotated it around its axis of symmetry. I've seen better versions of it by generalising the forumula.

  • @klakkaros I'm aware of the term "mandelbrot set" and it is a mathematical formula that gives you these sets of elements. The most common way I see to represent the mandelbrot set in 3D is just to do a "lathe" style effect, rotating the mandelbrot, but in this video they represent it using a similar system to how they represent the colors. You don't tweak the set itself, you tweak the way you show it.

  • @willrandship People have no understanding of this. "the mandelbrot was first a mathematical formula"... there is no such thing as "the mandelbrot".. you're talking about the "Mandelbrot Set", which is (you'll never guess) a SET of elements. When you PLOT these elements in the complex PLANE, you form a FRACTAL. (a plane is a 2D object) you cannot "tweak" it into a 3D object, and if you do, you're no longer talking about the Mandelbrot Set.

  • @klakkaros But the mandelbrot was first a mathematical formula, which then was made into a geometrical representation.

    You can get a 3D representation by tweaking how you show the calculations.

  • This is boss.

  • @unlockthepower

    they can be considered to have fractional dimension.

    partway between a curve and a surface, or between a surface and a volume, etc.
