3 Main Mandelbox types (?) Illustration

That looks really cool Jessee! Rethinking my premise, Phi is a ratio of proportion, so I guess my thought with using Phi ratios doesn't make sense if applied to all planes. It might have interesting result with the right variations, like 1, Phi7, -Phi3 - or something like that. I'm new to rotating and trying to get a sense of how combos of pos and neg rotations will behave.
For example are there are probably some number combos that produce more spirals, and if you double those numbers does it double the effect or produce a different one? Since i'm not a mathematician i just like to come up with ideas and tinker, and hopefully find some generalizations. I got really intuitive with the Mandelbrot set after a few years, where i could accurately guess where to find certain shapes.

Slightly off topic ... in the more extreme rotations (higher numbers) I apply in Mandelbulber, the image becomes pixelated or jagged, is there some setting to compensate for this? I tried DE step factor and resolution without much luck.

Here's an example - it has the same settings as the boxes in my last post, but looks like crap

The golden spiral could be an equivalent for the case of rotations, so if you have a certain scale parameter, what determines the length factor of the rotated segments, you might have to use a certain angle to get close to a golden spiral...  just an idea.

(I like the mandelbulber pics, for the issues with higher rotation Buddhi might have an answer - what i also like to hear in case i want to make the rotations on the planes too)

Nice idea, Miqel.  Dunno if these have to be another category, maybe they have more variety in shapes but this has to be dicovered more...

Wooooahhhh, MY PRECIOUS.... Cool J, looking forward to explore these new worlds!
