#mandlebrot — Public Fediverse posts

Got another opportunity to show the C² Julia Loop installation yesterday. This is just after setting up, later on people came to dance to dub music. Most didn't interact with the installation, but those who did seemed to have lots of fun! It's great to see people discover the boundary of the Mandelbrot set with their hands, because that's where you get the best pictures.

This is such a rewarding motif! Since the idea is so incredibly simple, I feel shy to take too much credit. Someone else must have tried to make a video loop with a complex square function in between long before me, right? Anyways, there is stuff to learn. How to set up lighting to get nice images, or that it's a good idea to turn off auto exposure. Adding color shifting was a good idea, and making it slowly rotate by itself kept things interesting enough so I could leave to take a leak. There are certainly more clever things to try. Or maybe add some way to make it react to audio signals.

Une fois tous les 2-3 ans, je redécouvre ma fascination pour les visualisations de l'ensemble de Mandelbrot.

I woke up at silly o’clock, so I did some work on my #PC6502 computer and scaled the mandlebrot up.
This is now 168x240 (screen is 272x480) and is using the screens rectangle function as I still can’t get a single pixel to plot.
When done it draws a white rectangle around the whole image.

Oddly enough I can’t get a pixel to plot, but I can get a line. So I did the #mandlebrot on my #PC6502 computer.
Had a play with colours and scales until I got a combination I liked.
The image in real life is much more vibrant.

I wrote a mandelbrot program for A/UX that uses the pre-ANSI C compiler it provides and the early version of curses without color or drawing character support. It was an interesting project! It should work on any UNIX variant. I've built and run it on A/UX and on modern Linux with a problem. The last photo is it running on Linux. #mandlebrot #unix #aux #mac #retrocomputing @slithymatt

These guys!
Well, yeah. right! there's no god. Not like the santa claus and shit.

but, there is the #akoshic right? isn't that a #Hindu belief? Those are the elements of god.

God is not a corporeal being, as to have farted whilst exhibiting some notion; as to have willed together a universe.

But: there is something.

You have to be in touch with that sort of thing. And that, you either possess inherently, or you don't. You can't win it. In fact, it' s a curse.

It's a curse if you're brain damaged, at least. Because I have a LOT I want to do, and create and solve for you.

Sadly, the ideas and things I was working on. What was that? You see. You can't see it, if you can't see it. Like that #mandlebrot shit. Or anything.

It's like having dirt on your glasses. Can't wipe it off

And we have reached colour mandlebot with the display...

Not sure they are the "right" colours, and I've spotted a bug in the background when scrolling, but it's pretty :)

Just added a super-cool mandlebrot explorer as a demo app for Aparapi (so runs on the GPU not CPU). I cant stop playing with it and its only a demo :)
