11. Gawd those were gorgeous

I've never seen fractals, before. How are they made? I could stare at that stuff for hours.

17. Have you ever seen the show Fractal Frenzy from Arthur C. Clarke?...

...Its great, and he really applies physics to the whole thing. If you haven't, google it and see if you can find it. Its a killer show.

19. Beautiful . . .

Thanks for that.

Here are some that aren't as pretty, but are intriguingly weird, I think. (I'm not sure if these blobs are fractals, but they are mathematically generated.)

20. I think you just ruined my life with these things. I love art and color.

So I immediately went to Google and found three programs that will do these on my computer. Now I am going to spend hours and days and months fiddling around with these things. They are just so beautiful.

The software - free too - are:
