END OF AN ERA, FRACTALFORUMS.COM IS CONTINUED ON FRACTALFORUMS.ORG

Here are some of the "now known to be moirés", I created.




















Interrestingly, the moiré above was made with only 3 different colors, which were red green and blue. The end result seems to have created the additionnal colors of cyan, yellow and pink, but they are only illusions since when zoomed in completely, they revert back to the 3 original colors.

I had to share the link to the last image (the biggest moiré/fractal i've completed), since the file is too large to be pasted here. I would suggest, for those interested in seeing the last moiré in all of it's details, to wait about 15 seconds before zooming into the pattern - it will allow the computer to display all of the different effects that occur when properly zooming into and out of the pattern.

I agree that what I said is pretty outlandish but I wasn't myself when I wrote it... ( I was a bit under the influence to be honest...)

I will say that i have spent many hours making those designs and since I had no idea what they were when i made them, I nurtured the belief that they meant something special. I have made the first of those images through an intuition that I had about the hidden nature of things. It is only now that i discovered that they existed as moiré but through the time I have passed making them, i always held the belief that they ment something special.

I am just trying to place meaning into them - and I guess i am trying to figure out why I had the intuition to draw them in the first place, without any knowledge whatsoever about what the pattern i followed would lead me to create... at the time I first drew them, I had a spiritual awakening and I must have associated those designs with something "as special" as the spiritual awakening I had back then.

Maybee they mean nothing at all. I am just trying to place value into what I have spent many hours uncovering through the pattern that I followed creating them.

I have stumbled upon an interesting explanation of the different effects that can be seen in some of the moiré patterns posted above. It comes from a computer programmer who have "accidentally" created a moiré pattern, such as the ones I have created, and who have studied it's properties through the lense of a computer programmer. The read is quite interesting and suggests that there are more to those moiré patterns than meets the eye.

Cheers.

very interesting read! the similarity to magnetic field lines is fascinating.
and your huge moire-image is beautiful - especially when moving/zooming.

thank you for sharing!

A very similar pattern can be found by using a line drawing program in XOR mode (instead of the lines drawing in black, it flips the pixel colour from white to black, or visa versa). Then you just draw a line from the centre to every pixel on the boundary of a square.
