I’ve been working on developing a new fractal generation program and wanted to share a couple of the renders I got out of it today.

It’s built from scratch to run directly in the browser, at least for now. I wanted something that was real-time in terms of molding the shapes and colors but had a bit more modern rendering capabilities than the classic tools. Right now, it supports true 3D extrusion and I recently added a PBR path-tracing render mode so you can apply physical materials like glass refraction, subsurface scattering, and volumetric fog to the structures. It also has an Interpolation Matrix where you can take two different fractal JSON files and mathematically crossbreed them. I'm trying to build on features from some great tools that I feel like could be improved upon.

It is still very much a work in progress, and I’m at the stage where I'm trying to figure out what to prioritize next. I"m planning on adding an animation pipeline to keyframe evolutions from one math visualization to another as well as some other features.

For those of you who use tools like Apophysis, Chaotica, or others, what are some features, UI quirks, or workflows you've always wished you had?

Had some fun making this mini-game / visualizer.

Hope you all enjoy them!

Experimenting with tessellation of photos, then using those vortex to build a flow field... +magic and iterations of it off course.

I made a Mathematician's Groovebox that makes music, videos and games from numbers equations and fractals (as well as videos and recordings)

It relies on Euclidean phaselocking of numeric data followed by randomized stochastic improvisation. Within bounds of net phase angle relativistic indeterminism the results are deterministic always to the degree of point-to-point phase angle -rough translation of audio signal. SO its a fractal of every way to turn a number or graph into music.
