Fractalicous 10 marks a decade since I published my first Fractal film on the internet. And what a decade it has been!
First of all, the community response has been overwhelming, warm and extremely encouraging. This has been the primary motivation for me to keep going into the depths in stead of staying at the surface. This meant that four years in I decided to quit my day job at a VFX house and for the last six of those years I’ve had the opportunity to live and breathe fractal art.

Produced in 4K, HDR and at 60fps
music: Immortals by Jean-Michel Jarre ft. Fuck Buttons

A 25-minute meditative fractal journey.
Ive always wanted to create a longer, deeper fractal trip, and when I listened to Michael Stearns latest remaster Morning I thought this was the perfect music to set it to.

With Gestalt Im trying out a new technique, using lower spatial but higher temporal resolution to create motion blur. 24000 images were rendered to create this short art film.
Its a re-visit of the parameters from Moiré from a few years back.
Music is by Alva Noto - Xerrox Monophaser 2

![[HDR Fractal Trip] Algebra Of Awe](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TMH_pfy8WRg/mqdefault.jpg "[HDR Fractal Trip] Algebra Of Awe
In Algebra of Awe I took a dive into space-like nebulae between fractal dimensions. As if we’re attuned to gasping upon the intricacies of mathematics, delightful geometry, algebra of awe.
Creating this was a mix of fun and technicality, working with Mandelbulb3D to reveal different layers. Each layer, with its unique color and math-inspired mist, was carefully blended in After Effects. The final rendering undergoes HDR grading, thereby imbuing certain fractal elements with an ethereal luminosity, reminiscent of radiant galaxies.
The soundtrack to this visual journey is Cloudless Sky by Mirage of Deep, adding a musical layer to the experience.
Algebra of Awe has special significance for me. Its a journey that echoes back to when I first dipped my toes into the mesmerizing world of fractals, almost exactly 10 years ago. Back then, I published my very first fractal short, Geiger’s Nightmare, setting the stage for an exploration that has brought me nothing but joy and happiness.")
