Hi and thank you for the compliments. I started on an Amiga 500 back in 1989 and remember leaving it on overnight for a 640 x 480 render in 64 colors. 

You can certainly play with Fragmentarium but I don't know how to use it with photos.  It's not very intuitive and seems complicated but it's free and fast, so that works for me. 

In my tiling program I use a recursive subdivision algorithm to check if the perimeter of a square intersects a fractal. If not, draw the square.  If yes, subdivide the square into four smaller squares and repeat.  You can put any photo you like inside the squares once you have the algorithm working.

Oh by the way, I see you are a fan of Toccata and Fugue.  You may be interested in hearing me play a few parts here:

Also, here's me playing just the ending chords of the fugue.

It sounds great in headphones... the stereo reverb of the original cathedral is there.

Ooh, I didn't mentioned something about that, did I? however I just saw the 2 YouTube films. Strong awesome music and a cool cat wandering above the keyboard

Thanks for your kind words.   You've written so many articles!  Wow, this will take a while to digest.  I will definitely have some questions for you.  Stay tuned.

No problem Really glad if you obtain some inspiration Don't stress, the articles will remain BTW, it happens that the server doesn't function then just try later.

Then you have my tedious journals, most of them dealing with fractals, theoretical or practical. The most theoretical er those in my mathematical pleaytime series starting with Mathematical Playtime 1With this journal the “Mathematical Playtime” series is started by me It will not be a long series, only three or four journals I think But who knows But for sure they will lead to the area of fractals And regarding fractals, do not miss the new excellent fractal series http://news.deviantart.com/article/34334/ written by banana-tree here on DA
Now we will play the game I am a rational number between 0 and 1. Double me time after time, but as soon I become 1 or greater, subtract 1, and go on for ever.
Complicated? Well let’s take it more easy
First:  What is a rational number? Answer: A rational number is a number that can be brought into the form p/q where both p and q are integers.
Second:   We can put our game into the iterative rule:
p/q  ->            
2(p/q) if 2(p/q) still being less than 1
2(p/q) – 1 i . Hope I didn't overload you

No worries, I'll take my time sifting through the wealth of fractal information you've written.  Great job!

You're definitely not alone.  My interested in fractals was sparked by a TV show in the late 1980's that showed the Mandelbrot set, and I was hooked.  Infinite detail and complex geometric structures everywhere... all from pure math.   It is really mind-boggling to me how such beauty, symmetry, organization, and apparent randomness can arise from deterministic math formulas.
