Cycling through the Julia parameters.

From the POV-Ray manual:
"A julia fractal object is a 3-D slice of a 4-D object created by generalizing the process used to create the classic Julia sets. You can make a wide variety of strange objects including some that look like bizarre blobs of twisted taffy."

The Julia Fractal, as presented in POV-Ray, is described by a 4D vector (the Julia parameter), a normal and a float (the direction of the "slice", and position along that vector).

I loop through the Julia parameters for 81 Julia fractals here. The four numbers shown at the bottom of the screen are the values used in POV-Ray to recreate that particular fractal.

  • @RJLeffmann you sound smart lol

  • Good stuff.

  • By rotating the 3D space at K = 0 in the complex plane, it will intersect the 4D quaternion space in a more interesting way and give rise to a whole new set of shapes.

  • wow cool
