Fractals Update

Wed Sep 16, 2009, 9:39 PM
So, I got a little side tracked with some non-fractal digital art that I wanted to explore. I have had little experience with the techniques involved, so it was a fairly interesting to discover some of the principles on my own.

I think I have all the tools in place to generate another work I've been thinking about for a couple of weeks now based on polynomial Newton fractals. I improved one of my subroutines to give a 2.25x average boost in performance! Hooray! Regardless, though, it will take significant computational resources (I estimate around 28 hours of core processing time for that big project).

I'm also thinking about trying out some more Newton fractals, but using non-polynomial functions. I have some ideas, that I think might produce some interesting patterns, but I won't know until I code it up and render a few! So, watch for those!

Sure! Your fractals are very nice. Their symmetrical forms are quite striking. I've mostly been working with Newton fractals which are easy to impose symmetry conditions on, but have been getting interested in flame fractals lately - which many artists seem to create in an asymmetric form. Your symmetric flame fractals are a unique contrast.

Ah, I tried working with fractals like those before when Apophysis stopped working for som odd readon, didn't turn out so well XD I didn't understand how to work the program.
Thanks again!

Yeah; your work is very nice! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your great fractals!
