This is a Mandelbrot reverse zoom made using ChaosPro dubbed with some Bach. The raw uncompressed video is very clear
on my PC - see above - but I could not get decent quality after compression, and youtube's reencoding will make it even worse.

Because ChaosPro is limited by the floating point processor unit - mantissa apparantly 48 bits on my PC - I had to find a nice looking minibrot at a zoom not greater than 10,000,000,000,000,000 times. Seems a lot but this limits the number of spirals.
This video starts at a zoom around 400,000,000,000,000 times, so I could have zoomed in 25 times closer.

May I use this in a music vid i'm making? Thanks.

Yes, and I have sent you a private message with details of better versions than this one (YouTube's encoding greatly spoils the video and sound quality).

[Electricspaceodyssey]

that would defeat the purpose.

these are Percise Mathmatical Equations.

zooming out is so much better than zooming in :)))).

The more things change, the more things stay the same.

I believe that one day we will discover that this is the structure of the universe our galaxy is in. Try watching the zoom-out of "The known universe" and then watch this again.

reality = a mandelbrot zoom. think about it.

Everybody knows the elephant valley is where it's at...

[warhola888]

It's the same shape at the beginning and the end!

I much prefer zooming in, but what a piece of work!! Epic, thanks!

[ORIBEL38]

This is awesome! Such magnificent colors in one video. Thank you.

[puationstation]

there's more than meets the eye here...

That's pretty cool. I think I've "stumbled" on something like that a while ago.
