audio is 7th ray (rauwkost remix) by hi-fi mystery school http://90watts.com

Mandala was a collaboration between teamfresh and the very talented Lee Negin.
in the end Lee scored two separate tracks for the animation.
here is the first one.

Please watch in the highest quality available!!!

here is the second track

I personally love them both and I actually wanted to remaster the second one once I heard the music but due to moving properties I did not have the time, hopefully I will be working with lee again in the future anyway so I will just look forward to that.

magnify the point – in this four minute trip.

i hope you enjoy the mandelbox zoom

watch in the highest quality possible!!!

accelerated trip through a transforming Mandelbox. here I was playing around with folding values whilst entering the box. Sorry about the clipping! I love this new software and I feel like I am really getting to grips with it now. I have actually worked out what the cause of clipping is now! and there will be no more of it!!! this is actually playing at double speed. the original slower 4 minute version is below….

The audio was produced by

It is an obscenely dirty piece of dubstep.

I LOVE IT

This is my first upload that utilises “depth of field”
the depth of field (DOF) is the portion of fractal that appears sharp or blurred in the image.
Wth depth of field you can make the fractal appear very large or very small -
bags of fun!!

here’s the proper 4 minute version!!

Take a look at the two small monotone Mandelbrot fractal sets below. They are identical – apart from the fact that the set on the left is aliased and the set on the right is anti-aliased. When fractal images are aliased – they look scratchy and you can see a lot of noise over the image. Aliasing comes about because the edge of the fractal is infinite, but the screen has a finite amount of pixels with which to represent it.

Below are the same two mandelbrot fractal sets magnified by around 800% At this level of magnification you can see each individual pixel clearly. When the fractal is calculated, each pixel has to be either inside the fractal set (black) or outside the fractal set (white) Even though some of the pixels contain both the inside, and the outside of the fractal. This is what causes aliasing.

When the fractal image is anti-aliased, each pixel that contains both the inside and the outside of the fractal – is shaded between the two colours – according to how much of the inside and outside it contains. This removes aliasing. Although it is impossible to remove aliasing all together, anti-aliasing a fractal image greatly improves its quality. Take a look at the full colour example below.

here is a video to illustrate the difference whilst zooming…

On Saturday the academic world mourns the end of the life one of one of the most brilliant mathematicians known.
Benoit B. Mandelbrot, the inventor of “fratal geometry” died of pancreatic cancer in Cambridge on Thursday, his family said. He was 85.
An insightful teacher, Mr. Mandlebrot brought The Mandlebrot Set to the public so that anyone with an interest in mathematics, from rank amateurs and beginner students to brilliant Ivy League geniuses, could study it.
He was the Sterling Professor Emeritus of Mathematical Sciences at Yale University.
Mr. Mandlebrot leaves his wife, Aliette, two sons, Laurent, of Paris, and Didier, of Newton. He also leaves three grandchildren.
A memorial service is being planned.

R.I.P.

While he coined the term “fractal”, expended the concept’s use and understanding, and won the hearts of the masses with his super cool computer representations – it’s good to remember that he stood on the shoulders of great mathematicians who came before him in the field, such as Weierstrass, Koch, Cantor, and Gaston Julia.

For most of his career, Dr. Mandelbrot had a reputation as an outsider to the mathematical establishment. From his perch as a researcher for I.B.M. in New York, where he worked for decades before accepting a position at Yale University, he noticed patterns that other researchers may have overlooked in their own data, then often swooped in to collaborate.

“He knew everybody, with interests going off in every possible direction,” Professor Mumford said. “Every time he gave a talk, it was about something different.”

Dr. Mandelbrot traced his work on fractals to a question he first encountered as a young researcher: how long is the coast of Britain? The answer, he was surprised to discover, depends on how closely one looks. On a map an island may appear smooth, but zooming in will reveal jagged edges that add up to a longer coast. Zooming in further will reveal even more coastline.

“Here is a question, a staple of grade-school geometry that, if you think about it, is impossible,” Dr. Mandelbrot told The New York Times earlier this year in an interview. “The length of the coastline, in a sense, is infinite.”

In the 1950s, Dr. Mandelbrot proposed a simple but radical way to quantify the crookedness of such an object by assigning it a “fractal dimension,” an insight that has proved useful well beyond the field of cartography.

Over nearly seven decades, working with dozens of scientists, Dr. Mandelbrot contributed to the fields of geology, medicine, cosmology and engineering. He used the geometry of fractals to explain how galaxies cluster, how wheat prices change over time and how mammalian brains fold as they grow, among other phenomena.

His influence has also been felt within the field of geometry, where he was one of the first to use computer graphics to study mathematical objects like the Mandelbrot set, which was named in his honor.

“I decided to go into fields where mathematicians would never go because the problems were badly stated,” Dr. Mandelbrot said. “I have played a strange role that none of my students dare to take.”

Here is a nice deep zoom into the mandelbrot fractal set in high definition. The fractal has been anti aliased x4 and The music is really rather special for this animation – a progressive house sound – I had the pleasure of collaborating with Jonathan Morning, a very talented music producer, he kindly allowed me use of this track..

“height rip” is an animation of a scale -2 mandelbox.
I say -2 but that is only approximate, as the scale is manipulated throughout the first half of this animation.
Manipulation of the scale parameter (which does not change the overall size of the box, just the way its structured!) and many other parameter manipulations such as depth of focus and perspective were made possible for this animation – by the addition of a key framing option to the software used (mandelbulber)

sourceforge.net/projects/mandelbulber/

although still very young, this amazing piece of software is able to produce many more wonders than what you see above. In fact I don’t ever think I will do it justice, and it is being updated all the time. As well as the mandelbox there are lots of other 3D types that I will be animating over the next few years – It so easy to use and so much fun – I still wonder inside every day how on earth this is open source (free) There is a god – a fractal god.

This animation is heavily inspired by “i am a fractal”
As I learned how to animate fractals one of his animations in particular sparked my imagination.  Its called
“Blue Oyster Spiral Fractal zoom” It can be seen here – http://vimeo.com/1426597
This animation is a tribute to that one.
The audio is an exclusive promo deep tech house track called “in your life” by franklin reeves – soon to be released by http://90watts.com

The unhelpful heritage vanishes.
