Fractals of the Week: Shattered Worlds

Here are a few of my favorites from this and the previous week. I’ve been experimenting with scratch-built parameter sets using Mandelbulber…

Fractals of the Week: Day of the Moon Edition for 2013/05/13

G’day! Last week was a bit slow for new images, until toward the weekend, so I’m posting the most interesting ones here.

I’m doing research on Mandelbulber for my upcoming tutorial, including work on the blog draft, and I’ve created a rather cool parameter set that I’ll use in it, an octohedral/cubic Mandelbox figure which has generated some rather strange images…

Then again, strange, eerie, odd, and yes, eldritch are par for the course for this blog, and this looks like it’ll be a lot of fun when it’s complete.

But I’ve babbled enough. Here are the images… Click to embiggen.

Fractals of the Week: Thor’s Day XaoS Edition…

Xegg-Yi

Nova Organon

Mandelbroticus

I was fooling around with customizing the formulas used for image generation in XaoS, trying out different settings, as you do with this sort of art…and even though I tend to hate my own stuff, I don’t really mind how these turned out. Not too bad. The video below is not my work, but it’s a beautiful example of what’s possible with fractal animation, in this case using Mandelbulber. Enjoy.

Fractals of the Week: Monstrous Mandelbulbery

G’day, all. This Thursday I’ve got new images via Mandelbulber for you. This last week, I’ve deleted many of the old parameter sets I’ve used to create much of my current stock of images…I’ve simply exhausted the possibilities that those settings offered, and so I decided to create a new crop of files, with more versatility than the old. I’ll be making fewer new parameter sets in future, save new base figures, and the images I’ve included here all use Julia sets derived from a base Mandelbox figure. You may notice some vague resemblance to earlier images posted on here and other venues — that’s intentional, since those have some of my favorite characteristics. Julia sets are fun, especially when I fiddle with them by tweaking the three-dimensional seed coordinates and even switch between different base figures before re-rendering a piece during experimentation. May you all enjoy the remainder of the week, always keep a towel on hand, and DON’T PANIC.
