Alfred Liang You can thank Benoit Mandelbrot for introducing us in 1975 to fractals. A fractal is a geometric shape that has self similarity-when fragmented, smaller sections mimic the whole. The closer you zoom in on a Mandelbrot set, the more intricate it becomes. Do you think 60's artist, Peter Max saw what was coming in the future? The merging of math and art is not a new concept. Lenora Clark"What distinguishes fractal geometry within mathematics is an exceptional and uncanny characteristic. Its first steps are not tedious, hard and unrewarding, but playful and extraordinarily easy, and provide rich reward in terms of stunning graphics. To the mathematician , they bring a bounty of very difficult conjectures that no one can solve. To the artist, they provide backbones around which imagination can play at will. To everyone, a few steps in about any direction bring extraordinary pleasure. Nothing is more serious than play. Let's all play." -Benoit Mandelbrot Fine artists have used math for centuries to develop pleasing compositions...beauty....to the eye. This symmetry is based on the Fibonacci numbers. The golden ratio is seen over and over in nature. Fractals occur in nature as well...a basic shape occurring over and over in a plant making a pleasing pattern. Symmetry through math in nature produces beauty to the human eye. The fibonacci series can be used to produce arcs and curves perfectly proportioned. Art and math.....working together to create the intangible quality of beauty. Thank you Jans Berghuis for making me think!
Just swimming thru, navigating the absurdity of life. ~
Certain patterns, such as the fractal, are repeated over and over in nature -- with some spectacular contrasts on wildly different scales.
Cool spiral patterns in nature.

Lo esencial del Ser Humano, no es lo que se ve o se muestra por fuera. Lo esencial, lo más bello que tiene es lo que guarda o lo que esconde en su interior, donde lamentablemente pocos saben llegar. Por muy elegante que te pongas por fuera, por mucho perfume que te pongas, por mucho maquillaje que te eches en la cara, si por dentro estas vacia, no te sirve de nada, caso de la mujer. En cuanto al hombre, por muy elegante que te pongas, por muy trajeado que vayas, por muchas palabras bonitas que uses, si resulta que todas son falsas y no las dices con el alma, no te sirven de nada.
