“Anyone watching one of these computers may vote for their favorite animations using the keyboard. When these computers sleep, the Electric Sheep comes on and the computers communicate with each other by the internet to share the work of creating morphing abstract animations known as sheep. It’s run by thousands of people all over the world and can be installed on almost anything. “Electric Sheep is a collaborative abstract artwork founded by Scott Draves. One of the neatest examples of fractal art in action may be Electric Sheep. That’s why computers do most of the work. (If you are like me, that’s a lot of complex calculation.) They are generated by applying iterative methods to non-linear equations. When it comes to creating fractal art, there’s definitely some science and technology in the mix.

There is a news group dedicated to fractal images I mocked up a fractal necklace using gemstones. I didn't win but I think the images are interesting. I made four posters using fractals for a gem poster competition held in Brazil in 2011. Sterling instructions and Visions of Chaos instructions. If you already use Tierazon you may want to get Tierazon instructions written by me. I recommend changing the colours using a graphic program. So you have made a fractal, but it looks dull or the colours clash. If you are puzzled about how anti-aliasing can improve your fractal images then click here. If you want to start making fractals then begin here.
Here is an annotated selection of my best fractals and here are my best 3D fractals.Ĭlick here to read about fractal-generating programs and download a free program of your choice. It's amazing that such complex images are generated by simple mathematical formulas. Twenty-five gallery pages, some movies and an explanation of three-dimensional fractals. Sterling2 is an excellent and free fractal generating program based on Stephen Ferguson's Sterling.
