you can create amazing images and if you have a very fast CPU (recomended 2GHz, 4 cores) some amazing animations, although there are no help files as yet!

you can download bib’s mandelbulber software for free from here

and below is a fractal fern leaf

The fractal fern leaf, like the Mandelbrot set, is created using another iterated function system, this time using a simple (x, y) coordinate system. 20 iterations of the function f(x, y) are performed. f(x, y) for each iteration differing depending on the value of a random number.

After performing 20 iterations of the variable function f(x, y), the point, (x(20), y(20)) is plotted in green on a black background. (Here (x(n), y(n)) is the point after performing n iterations of the variable function f(x, y), starting with the initial point (x(0), y(0)). A new point is then chosen, and the process continues ad infinitum, until the user hits a key on the keyboard to stop processing. It doesn’t take very long at all to get a good “Impressionistic” fractal fern leaf, even on an old Intel Pentium or 486. The leaf just gets more “fleshed out” the longer the program is run.

What is a fractal anyway? Well as you asked I will give you a brief run down.This particular fractal is called the Mandelbrot fractal set. The Mandelbrot fractal set is created using a mathematical formula that involves complex (infinite) numbers. These numbers are plotted onto a graph to produce the image. It is named after Benoît Mandelbrot. A famous mathematician who discovered fractal geometry. The boundary of this fractal is infinite. Meaning that when you magnify it, the edge of the boundary eventually becomes infinity complex. Buried within the Mandelbrot set are an infinite amount of smaller sets – that are self similar to the original. This animation is a journey to a set so infinitesimally small that if you could see all of the original it would be bigger than the universe!

the first song of the mix is “oxia – domino”
The second song is “David Amo & Julio Navas – feelings don’t stop”

The magnification of the fractal at the start is e.214. Want some perspective? a magnification of e.12 would increase the size of a particle to the same as the earths orbit! e.21 would make a particle look the same size as the milky way and e.42 would be equal to the visible universe. This zoom out smashes all of them all away. If you were “actually” traveling out of the fractal your speed would be faster than the speed of light.

You might like to know that this animation took me about two days to set up. My computer then rendered day and night non-stop for just over a month to produce the animation. The resulting twenty-eight anti-aliased 1280×720 AVI files (each just under 2GB) were each watermarked at full frames (uncompressed) Then I stitched them all together uncompressed. I also added the audio track at the same time. This was all done in Virtual dub. (except watermarking) The final watermarked Avi with audio is a whopping 46GB – Then I compressed it just once With the compression settings adjusted to achieve the highest quality, the resulting file size is about 1.5GB and looks absolutely sweet!

What is a fractal anyway? Well as you asked I will give you a brief run down. The boundary of a fractal is infinite. Meaning that when you magnify it, the edge of the boundary eventually becomes infinity more complex. Buried within the fractal are an infinite amount of smaller parts that are self similar to the original. In a nutshell, these fractals are created using mathematical formulas of complex numbers.
