Chess - Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom @MathsTown

Uploaded October 2019 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

So I've been experimenting again... This time it involves chess pieces... This is new little colouring technique I designed that samples an image. However, it is not an orbit trap, instead it chooses the location to sample from the (pixel based) distance estimation and angle calculations. The result is quite wild, and somewhat hard to control artistically, but it is still a bit of fun. Please subscribe!

Thank-you to my supporters on Patreon.

Metallic Dreams II - Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom (8k 60fps)

Classic 4 - 4th Power Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom

$[Reversed] The Next Dimension - Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom As demanded by the residents of Maths Town! A reversed version of The Next Dimension video. As will all deep reverses, there are bitrate issues at the start, you may like to skip the first 3min. This video is a collaboration with fractal artist Yann Lby. This video projects the 2D Mandelbrot fractal into 3D using the iteration data for the vertical axis. It is rendered with Yanns own software MMY3D. Make sure you check out his amazing collection of 3D fractal zooms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoUDq1pkpOE&list=PL4lt5Vl4_TwrO3KDhVpp3_45DRZqtVNa- Please take the time to subscribe to Yanns channel, he has some great fractal content there (and tell him I sent you). Patreon Note: This video is not available for download on Patreon, because it contains the work of another artist. Rendered in 4k, from 8k data frames (at 30fps). The final magnification of this zoom is beyond e1000.

$The Endless Ocean - Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom A huge blue double header for you this week! Two videos with the same geometry, colour palette and music, but with completely different moods. This one is really another look at the Infinite Ocean idea that was popular a few months back, however I have added colour cycling, so things are moving a little. If you dont really like this style, you will probably like the companion video Blue Dreams (released tomorrow). Please hit subscribe. The idea for this came after being trolled in the comments section by someone saying that there is no artistic merit to the videos because it is computer generated. And while I certainly dont claim to be very artistic myself, it is certainly possible to control the style and mood of the video. There are certainly some awesome fractal artists out there, particularly those making still images. So to demonstrate what is possible, I thought I would make two videos with exactly the geometry and colour palette. Anyways, please let me know in the comments what you think, and which video is more to your taste. Unlike the Infinite Ocean video, this one is rendered with my own software and Kalles Fraktaler. This means that I can go much deeper, and create the video much faster. I created a Panel effect for my plugin which gives the coloured panels you see in this video. The video is also shaded to give it a pseudo-3D feel. The angle for the lighting effect is based on the angle at which the iteration count is increasing. Such shading is cue for the brain to interpret the image as having depth.

$Mandelbrot World Record Attempt - Part 3 (e4000 to e6000) The deepest Mandelbrot zoom ever! This zoom is over 24-hours long, uploaded to YouTube in 11 parts. It will finish on a mini-Mandelbrot. As such, I am claiming a world record for the deepest Mandelbrot video! I have kept to the traditional colouring style for this one. Consider playing your own music while you let this one roll. Sit back, relax, and soak it in. This will be the only time I ever attempt a video this deep. Rendering around the final mini-Mandelbrot is just too computationally expensive to try again; I have other things I wish to achieve now. If you wish to claim the deepest Mandelbrot title, and would like me to acknowledge it, here are my conditions: It must finish on a mini-Mandelbrot, it must be rendered in at least 4k, it should double in depth no faster than once per second, and you should publish the coordinates.

(8k Technical Render) The Mandelbulb was an attempt to recreate the Mandelbrot Set in 3D. It was largely considered a failure at first. However, as I explore it further, and render it in higher detail, I am finding that the fractal has some quite interesting detail. The aim of this video is to show you what is actually there. So Ive called this a technical render, its not an attempt to be artistic. Please give me your thoughts in the comments. There two parts to this render: 0:00 Wide View of the Needle 1:42 Close-up View of the Needle 3D fractals are much harder to render than 2D fractals. There are a number of trade-offs to make as we cant simply assign colours to iteration counts. Most renderers for the Mandelbulb fractal rely on graphics card running at 32-bit precision. However this severely limits how close we can get. This is an attempt to render the Mandelbulb at full 64-bit double precision, which was done on a CPU. It is early days for my little software renderer, so there are a few problems, but it does expose some detail. It would not be possible to render the 2nd part of this video at 32-bit. It is significantly more zoomed in. The close-up view actually only takes you to the main mini-bulb shown in the fist video. It is significantly more zoomed, and you are seeing much less of the needle. Thank-you to my supporters on Patreon.
