  • STOP USING THIS GOD DAMN SONG. IT IS HORRIBLE TRASH.

  • @ophello - Once again the original Groove Armada song I used was flagged by Youtube, and I already have 2 strikes against my account, so therefore I had to change the god damn tune. Understand or do I need to type in ALL CAPS? ---original music info: The first 20 seconds is 'Magic' from the Ghostbusters soundtrack - the main song is 'History' by Groove Armada. Here's an idea: mute this and play that instead and stop wasting my time with shitty music complaints.

  • I couldn't finish watching the video because I can not accept the fact that life is just a sliver of nonexistence

  • @Og3990 - there's no such thing as NONexistence...existence in this experience is a given. The structure represents (or is a metaphor for) ALL of existence.

  • A very organic looking structure

  • that was really cool!

    fractals are amazing!

  • I have a phobia about watching MandleBULBs zoom in on me and threaten to emerge from the screen and gulp me ! Oddly, until just a minute ago, a mandlebrot did not trigger said phobia, but that rapid zoom down into it, caused shock at the start. I was NOT warned !

  • So would that 3D structure be infinitely porous?

  • the universe on the turtle's back..

  • z=z2+c = Karma  = poss mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

  • You can approach the infinite but you'll never get there; and beside at infinity all the points will merge into some kind of surface that's not fractal.

    EXAMPLE

    Polygon; as the number face increases, the length each face approaches zero; thus at infinity, there're no flat faces despite the intuition there should be infinite, at infinity the faces are dead; all that's left is the circle, a continuous stream of points equidistant to the circle centre, there are no flat faces on a circle.

  • Anyone else freaked out about touching a fractal or am I alone of this front?
