Savant Syndrome, Man sees Numbers as Shapes, Beautiful Mind

This is a hand drawn fractal of the structure of space time at the quantum level (Planck length/Planck Particle size frame). It shows a time lapse film of a mathematical savant, Jason Padgett, hand draw the fractal. Color was added by computer and wave equations make his drawing vibrate. The equation describes the geometric connection between the quantum energy (very small, hw) and the the energy described by Einstein's famous E=mc^2.

Jason Padgett discovered how fractals arise from relativity and limits. He is a geometric mathematical savant and lives in Washington state where he currently studies.

You need to watch it full screen to see it best.

Geometry is mathematics in it's natural form. Beautiful.

Pure poetic music of the universe, this is really excellent Jason! Thanks for sharing your gift.

where can i see more details about how these fractals are connected to the structure of spacetime and how fractals arise from relativity and limits?? i would love to see the mathematics :D

[rubble1712]

this is exactly what i see when i take acid, the infinite part of it is mind blowing

[TheScorpio333]

Every line drawn by hand til its complete. how clever that you thought to record this amazing process! Well done!

Very interesting! Keep your eyes in the middle while it's turning around and when it stops it seems to keep moving.....
