  1. After getting Bill Tavis' #Mandelmap (mandelmap.com) I got again interested in the Mandelbrot set and want to know more about it. Is there somewhere a book that explains to a mathematical reader our current knowledge about the set? Or could someone of the experts write such a book and inform me about it in a few years, once it is ready? 🙂

  2. The Quest to Decode the Mandelbrot Set, Math’s Famed Fractal

    By Jordana Cepelewicz

    For decades, a small group of mathematicians has patiently unraveled the mystery of what was once math’s most popular picture. Their story shows how technology transforms even the most abstract mathematical landscapes.

  3. @stecks Lastly, (apologies for the overload!) here are some ideas/requests for other people who might be interested:

    - some classics: #PythagoreanTheorem , #MandelbrotSet , or #E8

    - emoji for when you're thinking hard (maybe the orb from the orb-ponderer meme?)

    - emoji for when something you thought was hard was actually easy!

  4. A Trip to #Infinity II - #Mandelbrot #Fractal #Zoom (Depth 3e2159) - YouTube

    I’ve been fascinated by the #MandelbrotSet since I first saw an article about it in around #1985 and went to an exhibition about it at the #University of #Leeds. The particular #animation is particularly mesmerizing with the colour scheme chosen and lasts for three hours! I bet you can guess what happens at the end…

    Note the #magnification factor at the end.
