Dear Jason (owner and administrator of this Fractal Forum),

I want to wish you a lot of success with this initiative for a Fractal Forum.

The most inspiring fractal is the Mandelbrot set, described bij Benoit B. Mandelbrot is his book 'The Fractal geometry of Nature' (1977).

An example of a 3D Mandelbrot set (for z'=z^2 + c) you can find on: www.fractal.org/Beelden/Mandel.jpg

LOL @ "break-dancing Buddha" - or perhaps the Enlightened One is rolling on the floor laughing at the foibles of frail fractalists. It  makes me wonder what it would look like much "closer up" ... very very closer up Smiley

btw, there are meany posible ways of doing a 3d mandlebrot set.
That one looks a bit like a 2d shape put though a lathe http://i2.sitepoint.com/graphics/lathe.gif
Im not saying thats a bad thing though.

Interesting site, the image above is from http://www.superliminal.com.  I have invited the site's owner to this forum.

The 'Buddhabrot' is one of the more beautiful variations / drawing-methods on the Mandelbrot-set imho. Maybe it should even get it's own forum in the future  Smiley.

btw, is it allowed to post software announcements, and if so, which forum is most suitable?

Friendly regards,
Stijn Wolters.

In one of the "Fractal Generation Software" boards off the main site.  Either that or Commercial Corner if you are selling software yourself.

The original 1977 edition of the book doesn't have anything on the Mandelbrot Set, which was discovered in 1980.

One must get the 1982 or later editions, where he mentions the set but only once, and mentions rather off-handedly that other people named it the Mandelbrot Set. One gets the impression that he was backing into fame.

I think we badly need a central forum like this one for all fractallographers to come to. Thanks to Jason for making it a reality!

Julesruis that's quite obviously cheating
all of the other ways look better than that, it's just a 2D shape spun around one axis, like a lathe
look on Ultrafractal, there are several formuli for doing it in diffrent ways.
