For today’s post I’m showing off some the Apple Core Image effects capabilities built into MathPaint, with three Julia set fractals. By the way, MathPaint’s release is now close enough for crowdfunding – please see our MathPaint IndieGoGo campaign for details, and a video of the application in action! For each Julia set in this … Read moreFractal Friday 2020.02.28
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
The forthcoming MathPaint beta now has a fairly complete noise-rendering feature set. There are several algorithmic noise-generation modes – Perlin, Billow, Ridged, and Voronoi – as well as MathPaint’s own random-shape drawing mode. In addition to the feature, I’m starting to build the collection of templates that will ship with the app as starting points … Read moreBring the noise! MathPaint gets more algorithms, plus templates
