Zooming into a Julia Set fractal is always fun. Hope you like the music.

You can zoom into the fractal at http://www.hightechdreams.com/weaver.php?topic=fractals

  • It just goes on forever, doesn't it?

  • Yeah, it should go forever. In theory, it is infinite.  In practice, the patterns get limited detail because of limited precision in calculations and rounding off number values. If you zoom in lots with the applet at hightechdreams . com, eventually, you'll see how these limitations affect the image.

  • It needs better music... Sorry. Try "Now We Know" by Jeff Hanson. Or maybe you'd like "Comptine" by Yann Tiersen.

  • If I tried that, it would probably get muted because of copyright violation for the audio track. The current music was made by a buddy of mine and used with his permission.

  • it's a Julia set fractal zoom. I hope that was helpful.

  • I hope that was helpful too. lol If you want to zoom in using an interactive Java Applet, there is a helpful link in the description. There, you can use any number of Julia Set fractals. If you look on wikipedia, there is an article on Julia Set which explains it in detail. It is a bit technical/mathy, though. The applet is easier to use than the math is to understand.

  • This is what God does to zoom into earth...lol

  • These sets are not too hard to make people. You use Newtons method and a range of colours to define a convergence limit on the number of iterations it takes the algorithm to come to a solution. Haha :P I love complex numbers.

  • Wow this is so cool.

  • this is so cool lol

  • ah my head hurts..

  • Get real!

  • my mind is boggled :D

    too bad the math to explain the stuff is past me

  • @joshig1983

    "The current music was made by a buddy of mine."

    I think he should probably find a new hobby...

  • indeed, until your computer could not handle any more massive calculations :d

  • And of course, in physical form the set would stop when it reached the quantum level ;-P
