Like a fern. If you take one small "branch" of a fern, it looks just like the full thing. In fact you can then take a "branch" off this branch and it still looks the same. The image in the video is a graphical representation of a fractal equation. All they are doing is zooming in to a smaller and smaller area and re drawing the image in this area. It's pretty cool. |

Yeah, I know about fractals, but this video just looked like any other fractal-zoom image/video. There's obviously some sort of fuss about this one that is totally passing me by. *shrug* Mark |

The further in you zoom, the more accuracy is required in the sums. calculating all those pixels to 300 decimal places takes a lot of processing power. |

Should it though? because they are repeating patterns so it should be a multiple of an earlier result or am I missing something? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD |

The Mandelbrot set never actually repeats. Mathematically, every bit is different to every other bit, even if the graphical representation looks very similar. |

I remember leaving my BBC Micro on over night so it could create a Mandelbrot pattern. Not an animation - just one screen. If you watch that animation, it gets serious wacy in places, but always seem to return to the familiar shape. |

Anyone find it rather creepy how many of those patterns look like bleeps on a heartbeat monitor? |

Yeah, it's just that's they've gone to greater accuracy than anyone in the past. |

It’s one of those mathematical curios, like PI or prime numbers - how far can you calculate it to? Is there a repeat or a pattern? Stuff like that. The need for ever more accuracy is the challenge. |
