I know this isn't much to look at, but I felt it was important from a fractal mathematics standpoint.

Apophysis with 2 spherical transforms and tons of tuning

interesting, i've generated fractals which look qualitatively similar - but using my own apps (?!)

for example:

it's interesting to me that you got similar results with apo's "spherical" transformations - i should look into the code for those variations and try to grok what's going on at some point...
