AMAZING BOX
In mathematics, the AMAZINGBOX is a fractal with a boxlike shape found by Tom Lowe in 2010. It is defined in a similar way to the famous Mandelbrot set as the values of a parameter such that the origin does not escape to infinity under iteration of certain geometrical transformations. The mandelbox is defined as a map of continuous Julia sets, but, unlike the Mandelbrot set, can be defined in any number of dimensions. It is typically drawn in three dimensions for illustrative purposes.
AMAZING SURFACE
"AMAZING SURFACE" it's Luca GN's (DARK BEAM) implementation of an original idea by Kali, that's the original Amazing Box formula but with 2D boxfold.Produces great organic shapes with some rotations and rocky landscapes.
Our formula has iteration driven colors, to make every detail “pop” with a different material.
PSEUDO KLEINIAN
SIN BULB
Sin bulb is a variation from the classic Mandelbulb, we used this amazing fractal in our VJ loop “Folding Kraken“ and also in many stills.
THE MANDELBULB
The Mandelbulb is a three dimensional manifestation of the Mandelbrot set. It is an infinitely complex, naturally occurring fractal object.
The Mandelbulb was discovered by Daniel White and Paul Nylander, and developed collaboratively in the Fractal Forums community. These individuals set out to find a three-dimensional equivalent of the Mandelbrot set, and they found what they were looking for.
Using a spherical coordinate system, and some ingenious math, White and Nylander projected the Mandelbrot set into three dimensions, creating the Mandelbulb. In 3D-space, we see a more fully realized rendering of the Mandelbrot set. While the flat set exhibits infinite complexity, the Mandelbulb reveals that complexity in a fuller magnitude.
The Mandelbulb is an archetypal fractal form, embodying principles of deterministic chaos. The Mandelbrot set is the “most complex object on the complex number plane” but arises from a simple formula, commonly expressed as Z = Z² + C
The Mandelbulb formula in included in the free version of Vectron for octane(witch you can get here), we added some more parameters to tweak and material support based on iteration number, to get different materials on every iteration.
FREE! Blender Vectron sample setup for Octane 2020
