Fractals are infinitely complex
patterns that are self-similar across different scales. They are created by
repeating a simple process over and over in an ongoing feedback loop. Driven by
recursion, fractals are
images of dynamic systems, what I like to call ‘the pictures of Chaos’.
Geometrically, they exist in between our familiar dimensions.
Fractal patterns are extremely familiar, since nature is full of fractals. For
example, trees, rivers, coastlines, mountains, clouds, seashells, hurricanes,
etc. Abstract fractals such as the Mandelbrot Set can be generated by a
computer calculating a simple equation over and over.
Fractals show beauty and through its state it shows nature
from a different perspective unveiling the geometrical figures and patterns,
having to portray the beauty of both nature through mathematics.
