I played around with my scripts for fractals some more, and then I got bored with the details, started searching for what other people have done. here's a very nice little program: fraqtive.

very simple formulas can generate very complicated stuff. and I've just learned that they have been giving tablets to apes, I wonder why they shouldn't show them a bunch of fractals as well. I find it perfectly possible for them to handle some math better than ourselves, we just have to find the adequate language.

I wonder what math will look like in fifty years...
