Fractal Friday 2020.02.21

I started this week’s Fractal Friday exploration by trying out higher-iteration-cutoff Mandelbrot sets.  Here are a few results with max iterations set to 1000, and higher breakout values than my usual setting of 10.0 – more detail definitely appears, especially in the boundary of the breakout value which becomes much more frond-like. The first one … Read moreFractal Friday 2020.02.21

Flavors of static: random distributions and noise

It’s day one of noise generation in our flagship product! There are many ways to generate visual noise; our first algorithm is a simple static pixel generator. For these examples I’m generating a random integer from 0 to 255 and using that value to calculate a color on the gradient between two colors (here, blue … Read moreFlavors of static: random distributions and noise
