It is no exaggeration to say that Mandelbrot is one of the greatest masterminds of our era. Thanks to his work, visual images ...

The application of fractal geometry and scaling concepts to the quantitative description and understanding of structure formed under non-equilibrium conditions is described. Self-similar fractals, ...

Marcus du Sautoy describes how fractal geometry can be used to describe natural objects, and how it is used in digital animation. Trees use the simple rule of trying to maximise surface area ...

But these were ugly and absurd, compensating for their inadequacies by creating an illusion. Mandelbrot’s revolutionary ...

The image of the Mandelbrot set is one of the most recognizable representations of a fractal. But what's behind the entrancing picture? In this interactive, learn a bit about how we generated our ...
