Just IFS with a fibonacci spiral. Nothing new. I think you should achieve more to name a fractal type after yourself.
It should be called Fibonacci-fractal, if it deserves its own name at all..

edit: ok next time I'll read the full article before posting a 'rant'.. it's not fibonacci and the way he discovered this is indeed a new way.

but in the end it remains just a simple ifs fractal that probably has been produced 'accidentally' in IFS generators but wasn't published as special or given a name.

I think it's pretty cool actually. It feels like a natural extension of the golden ratio itself, which is based on a self-similarity of proportions.

Sorry about that. I did a search for harriss on the forum, first, and didn't get any hits. Oh well.
I've been fiddling with the subdividing idea recently even before I saw the article.
I think what's clever about his fractals is make little curvelets connecting each domain.
I don't know how he does it, but I have an idea of how to do that for an escape-time version.
