Fractal Love

Inspired by fractals, I recently incorporated them into a LOOMLAB scarf.

What is a fractal? By definition (thank you Wikipedia) A
fractal is "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole."

Interested in generating your own fractals? Make your own fractals by downloading this amazing program (written by Duncan Chambray) http://www.pbase.com/duncanc/fractal_images

Images below are highlights from Duncan's flickr group, highlighting fractal artists. http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=all&q=fractalworks&m=text

And for the nerd in all off us...listen to Mandelbrot Set by Jonathan Coulton ;-)
