Description
At first, it's just a spark, but the rust of the weathered neural network resists. The sparks don't give up, exploding, and the rust crumbles into nothing. The dull glow of the eyes lit up for the first time after a long sleep...Yeah, it's a bit different than usual
Testing some plugins that I'll be releasing sometime and providing some sneak peeks of what it can do! Another example of an earlier version of it can be seen here (yeah, it's that old XD)Apo + Chaotica2

If only my neural rust would crumble this beautifully.

This is so pretty. I love the swirl of the silver, red, and orange and the red orange mixture to the side of it is very interesting not to mention beautiful. You are my inspiration!

This really is a wild combination of shape, texture, and color. Working with color is something I always enjoy, and while this is probably the most experimental thing I've done in a while, I'm happy with how it ended up. I'm glad you enjoy it and find it inspiring; it's always amazing to hear that my artwork is able to do that!

When I experiment most things turn out terrible. When you do it they turn out amazing. You are the one who made me get into making fractals. Your work inspired me and now I want to make work as good as yours.

I've also had years more experience than you making terrible things, learning from them, and learning from the random moments where really cool things happen too. It'll come with practice, and with time, but I'm always open for questions, discussion, exploration of the medium, or a bunch of other things if you think it'd be helpful

Yay! Ok. If I have some question I'll come ask you.

I know absolutely nothing about fractals but this is very beautiful

Thank you

Yes! Point me in the direction of things to read. I'd be interested to learn

I'll shamelessly promo my own tutorial Starting Out: Learning Apophysis , but that's already for a specific program and doesn't cover more general information about fractals. There's What is a Fractal? , design.tutsplus.com/articles/f… , www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeim… , and probably a lot more that I could pinpoint; I just need a sense of what exactly you're wanting to understand / trying to take away from fractals at the current point in time!

I was just curious about how fractals come to be. I know they start out as maths and end up as pictures, but I'm interested in how that happens. I appreciate that might not be a simple answer though!

Computers are great at doing math over and over again at speeds that humans can't even approximate (at least when it comes to fractals, rendering, or computer graphics in general!), and while there's lots of maths in the background, it isn't something that you need to understand, though it significantly helps explain why things happen.
Fractals ultimately are a system of equations that can be rendered out mathematically. All fractals can be represented by a set of parameters and values, and can be iterative (monte carlo simulations like IFS) or calculated based on coordinates (escape-time). Typically, you interface with parts of the equation (functions, transformation positions, etc) through a set of parameters and variables, while the actual rendering of the input you work with onto an image is done by the computer.
Some people align transformations and variations geometrically to create patterns, and some (like myself) choose to work with the interface to shape something in a more abstract way, shaping the input rather than dictating what they want to see (e.g www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHdf8j… ). Rather than looking at the numbers and math, I look at how elements relate to each other, and how parameters affect the shape I'm working with to create something.

That actually makes sense to me! I love that beautiful art can come from messing with mathematical equations. It's a layer of connection in the world that makes me happy

The silly thing is that the more we try understanding about the world, the harder it is to pinpoint the equations that do it. Perhaps it's related?

Not sure what I am looking at, but it is awesome.

Whow...I can feel the movement. It looks like a gigantic steel drill
