Here is my tribute to a fascinating new fractal I talked about in an earlier post, the Mandelbulb. (Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3x4uJJqs_w) The music in the video is ‘Life is strange (trance remix)’ by darkangell. I recorded the scenes using my work in progress Mandelbulb Viewer/Fly through builder application (which is on my github, if you’re curious). [...]

Strange Alien Vistas
I’ve been messing around with a new fractal discovered only a few months ago dubbed The Mandelbulb. It has similar interesting visual properties to its forebear, the Mandelbrot fractal, but in three dimensions, which hadn’t been achieved until now. Here are a few non-typical renderings of the Mandelbulb taken very close to the surface that [...]
Don’t Negate the Premise
Gource is a visualization for software projects: or is it? My previous visualization, Logstalgia, was for website access logs. It turns out the information in a website access log and a VCS history are actually some what similar: they both track users, sort of (an ip address may or may not identify one user, but [...]
Birth of a Disco Universe
This started out as an experiment with Metaballs and ended up looking like disco colored supernova explosions and interstellar gas. I like how interesting patterns in the clouds emerge out of random behavior. To me, that’s the ideal outcome of a procedural animation. I think I might use this to generate background pictures.
