seriously... you choose something that looks like a bad 3D model of Goatse for his death?


Something like this is much better:

I agree with Nou. The OP is a muppet, and the pic is not even slightly worthy of Mr Mandelbrot's memory.

I would also like to thank Dr. Hoffman, for inspiring my knowledge of Mr Mandelbrot :crazy:

I have always wanted to take a class on Fractal Geometry. Fascinating stuff, the math behind it is intense.

Fractals! Check out the Elliot Wave Principle which uses fractal geometry to analyze the stock market.

If you were to put two stock charts right next to each, with one being a 1 year chart, and the other being a 1 day chart, they would look indistinguishable!

It's the same image, morons. They are even consecutive in the zoom sequence.:haha: look at the pic nou posted, upper right corner, thats the picture OP posted.

i like these two, i dont know if i like the escape time algorithm one or the normalized iteration count algorithm (gradient) one best.





Anyways, didn't really know alot about Mandelbrot until now, but I've always been a fan of his art.
