Exploring the Infinite
www.feldmangallery.com Todd Siler, trained in both science and the visual arts, will exhibit models and drawings derived from his studies and speculations on nuclear fusion reactor design. Delving into an area that science and technology so far have been unable to fully solve, Siler, in his new body of work, responds to one of the most monumental scientific challenges of
Earlier this month I was a featured artist at Future-Art-Magazine at Deviant Art. I had an opportunity to talk a bit about my interest in fractals and just thought I'd share this great page layout with you. I also want to point you to their growing gallery where they feature many artists (index). My thanks goes out to my friend,
“Fractal theory provided the basis for a unique software platform program that has been developed for use in conjunction with MRI, and is showing great promise in the early diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. Using this unique method, a study has shown that in over 30 percent of patients there were additional tumors in the same breast, and in
It's called Camera Toss, and the object is to toss your (inexpensive) camera while it's set on the slowest shutter speed to capture unique patterns that occur with light during the revolutions. Though they are not fractal images, they tend to look a lot like Apophysis fractal designs because the same basic principles are applied: A structure of light exists
Inspired by fractals, moire patterns, ad Islamic art, artist Andres Amador creates beautiful patterns of light in 3D sculpture that just blow me away. Among the vivid images of intricate sand cirlces and light patterns are videos of his artwork in motion. The site is more than visual eye candy; he often offers thought provoking insights and theories when he
Scientists from the University of Akron, Ohio University and Clemson University have created and captured an image of the largest man-made fractal molecule at the nanoscale, a development which could eventually lead to the production of new types of photoelectric cells, molecular batteries and energy storage.

My mother is an avid quilter. She told me about a woman who makes quilts out of fractal patterns. I did a search online and found a couple websites of particular interest. First, take a look at this breathtaking gallery of colorful mathematical quits created by the talented Rose Rushbrooke. When you're done ooo-ing and ahhhh-ing over those, check out

At the age of 81, Benoit Mandelbrot, recognized for originating the field of fractal geometry and applying it in mathematics, science and engineering, has joined the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is a DOE Office of Science laboratory that solves complex problems in energy, national security, the environment and life sciences by advancing the
HyperStealth Biotechnology Corp. has been working with 3M's vehicle wrap technology and Scotchprint® and ScotchCal® window coatings to create better military camouflage designs using fractal patterns that can be applied to weapons, vehicles, helicopters, and even jet aircraft. They claim that these patterns can be applied with little specialized training. Defense Industry Daily reports that at present, up to 10
When I was a youngster, I was the master Rubik's-cube-solver. Someone could hand me a messed up cube and I'd masterfully solve it in less than a minute. Timed solving contests ruled the day at Turrill Elementary. I remember getting a pair of Rubik's Cube hair ties from a girl in my second grade Brownies pack for Christmas. They had
Yeah, you heard right, check this out! http://mu-j.com/mufrac/ Interactive fractals that allow the user to zoom and pan without having to wait long for calculations to finish because that is done remotely using the HTTP protocol. Users can bookmark their favorite fractals and e-mail images in high resolution. The program is lightweight and it adapts to the capabilities of your
I've decided to put more exclusive content here on this site that is not offered on DA or Neosynthesis and will begin doing some spring cleaning, keeping only a couple dozen images posted in those galleries. Some of the exclusive content you will be able to find in the Special Content area in days to come will be Apophysis resources
