By the name, you might be able to guess that I'm a huge fan of Stargate SG-1.

Another fun fractal creation! I was rearranging files and discovered a few fractals that I had yet to share with the world.

A new widescreen monitor at the office means a new screen resolution, which in turn means some new background images. This is the first of (I'm sure) many. Yes, I know Aldebaran is a sun. And suns can't actually have sunsets. But naming it Sunset on One of the Planets in the Aldebaran System is pretty unwieldy. So... I'll be poetic and scientifically inaccurate.

I do believe I've fallen in love with fractals. Of all the types of digital art, I think they're my favorites. I found a nifty fractal-creating program called Ultra Fractal. It's reasonably priced, fairly easy to learn and the features will allow for the creation of an unlimited number of fractals. Heck, I could get bored with fractals altogether, and still not scratch the surface of what the program has to offer. I'm currently using this image as my desktop at work.

Digital space art... because I can't go there (wherever there is) and take a photograph. Sister planets around a star... maybe it's Vulcan and T'Kuht, out in the 40 Eridani system. Sure! I can say it's whatever I want, right? So, I present to you the first photograph of the planet Vulcan, and its sister planet, T'Kuht. (All hail the Great Roddenberry and Bjo Trimble.)

Fractals are one of my several obsessions.  It pleases me to share them with you.


Colors, Shapes, Infinity

Benoit Mandelbrot...

coined the term "fractal" in 1975.

Many important spatial patterns of Nature are either irregular or fragmented to such an extreme degree that... classical geometry... is hardly of any help in describing their form. ... I hope to show that it is possible in many cases to remedy this absence of geometric representation by using a family of shapes I propose to call fractals... or fractal sets. [Mandelbrot, "Fractals," 1977]
