Today I bring you my first morphing lenticular. Since this site does not support GIF animations I will post a still below from the sequence that reviels itself in the actual work as you walk from left to right across it. From Female genitalia to Brain to fractal completes the evolution of strange attractors.

You just blended some images instead of doing the morphing with/inside the math/code of the fractal. I rather see morphing like these two:

Title: Re: The Evolution of the Strange Attractor Post by: youhn on July 09, 2014, 06:18:36 PM Of course it's a matter of opinion. And I did use some wrongs words, I ment of course that you did the morphing through specialized morping software. Add some images, perhaps point some control points or nets ... and it gets blended/morphed into a video/movie. I just rather have the morphing done inside the 3D/fractal. First example is correct, but the second it only lens distortion. Indeed no growing or morphing. My bad. Something to replace the second example:

Title: Re: The Evolution of the Strange Attractor Post by: David Makin on July 16, 2014, 01:26:19 PM Why "Strange Attractor" when you appear to be using normal escape-time fractals and not attractor orbits ?
Title: Re: The Evolution of the Strange Attractor Post by: LMarkoya on July 16, 2014, 04:34:17 PM Hi David Of course you are right, but this is a very basic example where the intended use of the term is all that mattered for the artwork Louis |
