  • Amazing Fractals in Motion

    Here at the lab, we are interested in all sorts of scientific pursuits. At the intersection of art and mathematics, the generation of fractal images can produce some breathtaking results. Dr. Hans Ruppel has been using complex equations to generate beautiful fractal images for some time now. He has been using artificial intelligence to accelerate the process and and take his craft in amazing new directions.

    Below is one of his latest creations, which he has fine-tuned for scale and pacing. Enjoy!
