could be. the current catalyst driver (12.x) is not compatible with the current open cl sdk. i won't try before i have finished my current animation. someone else is needed as pioneer...
i'd be pleased!

to be honest the open CL on this version of mdblbr is only a proof of concept, it couldnt yet replace the CPU version, it only has 4 formulas, that are not totally tuned up, it cam make very cool results... if you have a 6x amd processor, then you will be going almost as fast as the GPU for high res. The openCL formulas are quite easy to write though, if i knew anything about coding i would have tried to help buddy tune and write the formulas from his program. depending on the annotation being usable of course!

given the complexity of implementing openCL, It may have been equally easy to implement distributed computing instead... perhaps it would be as easy to code and then we could share processors.

Seeing as there are masses of pixel shader effects for GPU that are the similar to photoshop effects for complex colors, reflections, animated textures, i wonder if there is a way to let the stream compute the basic colors and shapes of the fractals and then overlay some pixel shaders on top, like that you can have complicated GL colors and textures on top the more roughly compute fractal forms, abit like having a photoshop effect plug in, inside the fractal program.
