Mandelbrot of a different color

Fractal Planet
Fly over a fractal planet with fractal shorelines, land and ocean.
May cause brain-drain and eye-strain if watched on a computer monitor
but would be awesome projected on a large
wall at a party or club.


MPEG   640x480   45 MEG
2 minutes 30 seconds





Chrysalis
This is the Julia Set, centered at Real/Imag = -0.75/0.00 on the Mandelbrot plane, varying the Julia exponent from -2.0 => +6.0.
The original Chrysalis viddie, so named because several sequences within it resembled a cocoon, or chrysalis, as the irregular shaped black inside Julia Set, which then suddenly exploded into a multi-colored "flock of butterflies", the Cantor Dust Julia, was quite nice - one of my favorites.
This new version uses Fractint's "inside=bof60" coloring algorithm. I'm not sure exactly what it is doing, but it is seriously cool.

Te†raGo†h
Julia-4 line animation. Hypnotizing, Mesmerizing.
Slow but awesome. Would be excellent projected
on a big screne in a dark room (club, rave, party).
Creepy soundtrack by Dominic Frontiere
(from the Outer Limits)


WMV   640x480   7 minutes   73 MEG ♦♦♦




Oc†aGo†h
Julia-8 line animation. Similar to above
but moves a little quicker.

Set to Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive"

... remember when "psychedelic" really was ? ...

↓   BUDDHABROT   ↓

The classic way of rendering fractals is to iterate the coordinates of each pixel on the screne many times through the equation until it "escapes" from the complex plane or appears to be forever "trapped", determined by algorithm. If it is trapped it is part of the fractal set and is colored black. If it escapes it is then given a color based on the number of iterations it took. This iteration process graphs what is called an orbit, which can be circular, spiral, or any kind of shape. And the orbit of one pixel can cover a large part of the screne.



BuddhaBrot
To make the BuddhaBrot, the orbits themselves are plotted on the screne, not the individual colored pixel. And wherever two orbits intersect, that pixel is incremented by color. (And this is done only for the ones that "escape"). The overlap of all these thousands of orbits then creates the fuzzy surrealistic "BuddhaBrot" image. And this can be done for any fractal, not just the Mandelbrot.

As iteration count increases, the length and time of the orbit(s) increase, thus creating more overlaps and more incremented pixels. Thus by varying the iteration and parameter count an interesting morphing-evolution effect is seen.

An animation derived from a formula by Jonathan Osuch, one of the authors of Fractint.
These use the "buddhabrot" technique implemented in Fractint:

Here are the start and end images of an
RDS Mandelbrot zoom :

If you can see them correctly, it's cool cause the viddie
is much better resolution than the pics.

A short zoom from the parent Mandelbrot
to the North-tip mini-brot.

Try It !

(and many more) are available on CD / DVD
