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

Hi.

With over 100 posts it's a bit late to Welcome you to the forum, but thanks for posting this.  Do members have to be from Europe, or are us lowly Americans welcome too?

I think it's great that bib's work got the showing through you people.  Sounde like a Worthy Cause!

I will be representing ESMA and explaining fractals to children (and grown ups) at the next "Mathematical Culture and Games Show" (Salon de la culture et des jeux mathématiques) in Paris, Jussieu University, from May 26th to May 29th

http://www.cijm.org/

There will be 1 or 2 PCs for hands-on fractal discoveries, and maybe a printer.
I have also designed with a friend half a dozen of fake varied mandelboxes. In fact the cube faces are sticked onto wooden cubes of about 10x10 cm. That's quite nice. We are also building a Sierpinski triangle puzzle. And I will exhibit some of my work.

2 other forum members will also give a hand: prokofiev and s314159.

Thanks for your attention

Good job.

I remember my sister invited me to come to her room ( a girly place where I was not allowed to come in ) because she wanted to show me something on her first computer.
She told me to be sure that it really was something for me
I would like it and so on.
yeah right....
Did not trust her of course because as her little brother I was only good for being made fun of and to teach everything she did learn in school since I became to big for usage as living doll.
She convinced me...
The minute after I had my first fractal experience: waiting for the image to appear on that IBM machine from a century ago.
While waiting she took paper and pencil and explained to me the fractal that the IBM was calculating with an H having  a smaller H at the four ends and even smaller ones at their 4 ends etc. etc.

She studied mathematica and informatica and how to teach that but I realised only 3 years ago that she was right back then; I do realy like it.

Children are the future and showing them the endless world of the fractal is a good thing.

There might be one inspired enough and become renewing genius of Benoit Mandelbrot his caliber.
