and now for something new.

Today I found myself very bored while in class. This in itself is nothing new at all. The strange bit was that I had actually been productive during class most of the day, and had actually hit a point where I couldn’t work on my current project any long (I have stuff at home that I need to scan for the next part).

So I decided to open up and update Ultra Fractal, and play around with that. I haven’t made any fractals in a long time.

Fractals are such an awesome and interesting form of art. Sure, math isn’t something that people think of when they think about art. However, take a look at some of the fractal artwork out there. And then realize that this is all created through manipulating mathematical formulas. It’s an amazing thing.

I’m no fractal expert, even though I’ve been using both Apophysis and Ultra Fractal for a few years now. Most of my creations are more a product of “let’s see what this does” and randomly messing about with things, as opposed to knowing what effect specific tweaks will have. But it’s still a lot of fun. And it can still create amazing pieces of art.

The piece can be viewed on my deviantart page.
