Very helpful for finding different sorts of patterns in the Mandelbrot Set, and for learning it's general (mathematically informal) anatomy.

Wow, that man has a boatload of cool information on his home page. And apparently he has spent way too much time inside the M-set ;)

I really enjoy this site.  Not just the visual "road map" but also the rest of the site -- very good information and absolutely gorgeous images.  I'm a sucker for nostalgic anecdotes, too, so, you know... :) Good stuff.

That's pretty badass!  I can also think of a few things I'd like to do in large numbers of iterations...  :evil1:

Hehehe -- that's funny. :) 

My first thought was walking into the tattoo parlor with a printout and seeing the artist's reaction... How many hours do you think went into that?
