This fractal is rather basic; it is simply a coloring formula called "Chips are Us". I’m not sure exactly what that means--perhaps that we, like computer chips, can generate complex patterns--but I really liked what it did. After playing with the variables, I tried a number of color themes. For some reason, it looks best in black and white:
A Satin Sun
The pattern reminded me of both a sunflower and rippling fabric, hence the name. Other forms seem to lurk around the edges of this fractal blossom, besides petals and folds. What ever those may be is left to the reader’s interperetation.

Note from your fractalist: Sorry, folks, this one is a day late. I discovered early yesterday that my old website had been hacked. It has been fixed, now, although I plan to eventually remove everything from there, and repost it here somewhere. Just getting the bad scripts out has kept me plenty…
Life is complex. The last week has been particularly so for me, but I’d rather not go into details about it. So, I’m keeping this week’s fractal somewhat on the simple side. I suppose in fractals, just like life, simplicity and complexity are often found side by side. I’ve always liked to describe…
Something about climate change makes people want to argue. Take Greenland, for instance. A few weeks ago, I posted a photo essay about the recent acceleration of melting in the Greenland Ice Sheet. Not only is the entry is still getting comments, but it also spurred a discussion on a political…
I mentioned in my last post (a few weeks ago) that I was taking a hiatus from blogging to work on my overgrown home remodel. I’d like to say I’m finished: "woohoo! All done, come and see!" but I’m not. I am, however, getting close. Close enough to start thinking about what type of art I’m going to…
Karmen, it looks like the end papers you find on old books. If you can generate up one that looks really cool in colour, can I have it for my book? [If the publishers let me do coloured endpapers, that is.]
Sure, John, that would be fine. You'll have to let me know which sort of colors will work. Now that I look at it, I see what you mean about the old endpages. No wonder I used to always like looking at those... I thought it was just an excuse to extend storytime!
It is strange and beautiful.
My brain keeps on trying to add colours, mostly pastel shades at the blue end.
Thanks
