END OF AN ERA, FRACTALFORUMS.COM IS CONTINUED ON FRACTALFORUMS.ORG

The Mandelbox, but seen from the Inside. This means a voxel is visible, if and only if its coordinate is no element of the Mandelbox set.

Looks like the well known Bulb Trees.

I feel like exploring never before seen ocean depths. The grainy black and white feels like low light photography.

I used a changing scale value. The original Data can be found at:
http://github.com/trafassel/Gestaltlupe/blob/master/settings/Public/Examples/Mandelbox/Plants.xml

This data also includes the following formula (ar=-1.2,ai=0.01 ,aj=0.8 are fixed parameters ):

WOW! Really cool images Trafassel!!!

The Bulb is a hole in the Mandelbox - and in this hole there is a hidden death star.

Whaooo! I want to see a video!

The inside of the inside of the death star.
