This addition to my "Don't Blink" series isn't a frenzied in its presentation of fractals. With these new batches I introduce some fx and transitions. What you will see here are fractals from my fourth trippy volume. Many of these fractals were layered from within the fractal program. Some used plasma clouds as foregrounds or backgrounds while other compositions feature hot fractal on fractal action :P Seriously though I was playin' around with the layering feature by using a variety of perspective parameters to explore how to make things look three dimensional. Sometimes I used semi-spherical hemispheres atop other fractal or plasma cloud backdrops or without a background image. I also spent time creating "dot matrix" like renderings. What this does is use a field of equally spaced pixels (aka dots) that have different ranges of detail depending on the proximity of those pixels to the top, bottom, or sides of the screen. When the pixels are closest to the edges of the screen they tend to "fan out" which gives the illusion they are breaking up. When the pixels are closest to the center of the screen they start to blend seamlessly until they appear to be a solid area of the image. Sometimes it looked cooler not to use a colored background, fractal, or plasma cloud. And then at other times it was just as cool to layer the "dot matrix" look over a fractal or plasma cloud. I then took the perspective + layering approach to create other optical illusions. This allowed me to present several fractals occupying the same space as other fractals without using alpha channels or other more traditional blending techniques. I frankly don't know if this description can do justice to what I created. Turn down the lights, enlarge this video to full screen, take advantage of any HQ or HD options if presented, then sit about three feet (or more) from your computer's display. Relax and enjoy!

PS

What are the hidden shapes within these fractals?
How many hidden shapes can you see?
