Merry Christmas 2019 - A Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom @MathsTown

Uploaded December 2019 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Wishing all the people of Maths Town a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. You have all made this a wonderful little part of the Internet, and your constant support is most appreciated!

For this years Christmas video I was inspired by Candy Canes. The "tube" colouring has been by far the biggest hit of the year on this channel, so I thought it was appropriate to finish of the year with this design. The year started out a bit grim, after getting dropped by YT, but the many Patreons who opt to buy me a coffee each month kept the channel running. This video would not be here if it was not for you guys supporting the channel. Anyways, after an apology from YouTube and a lot of time with a c++ compiler, I have been able to finish the year strongly, producing fractal zooms in the unique Maths Town style.

If you'd love to see something, or a certain style repeated in the new year, please leave a message in the comments. Otherwise I'll just keep experimenting.

Thank-you to my supporters on Patreon.

$The Slow Burn - A Burning Ship Fractal Zoom Some creative colouring of the Burning Ship makes this one a little different. We also do a 100,000% stretch to find some hidden detail in the spires.

Colourless Forms - Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom Out

$Infinity Liquid II - Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom It has been a while since Ive uploaded, but perhaps it is worth the wait. I really like this one. This one will probably look best at 4k, so adjust your settings. There are a couple of minibrot passes to check out also. There is even a big render glitch, let me know if you see it. Thank-you to my supporters on Patreon. As usual, presented with mid-roll ads disabled. Let me know if you appreciate this!

Take your mind to another place during these crazy times. Graphically, it is a slow start, skip to the middle if you are short on time. This is a collobaration with dumbledog, a musician, long-time supporter and patreon who has appeared on this channel a few times before. An epic and amazing track from him this time called The Quiet Sun. Please subscribe. One unexpected bonus about this channel is getting to sample of the works of small independant creative musicians. There are some incredibly talented people working in generas that I would never normally investigate. Please consider giving dumbledog your support, and other independant artists, by buying some of their tracks. https://dumbledog.bandcamp.com Other videos on my channel featuring dumbledogs work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThHRh6nDvc0 5000 Subscribers Part 1 (currently the deepest zoom on this channel) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8IQD16Vo-Y 5000 Subscribers Part 2 (currently the deepest zoom on this channel) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMt8wzztsng Disciples https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo82S2vqQzw Orbit of Complexity Follow dumbledog here: Bandcamp: https://dumbledog.bandcamp.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ItsTheTaterCam This video was rendered and uploaded in 8k @60fps. Im not sure if YouTube is allowing long 8k video at the moment? Anyway, fractals look better rendered at higher resolutions becaue it reduceses artefacts, so this should look really nice at 4k. Thank-you to my supporters on Patreon. /******************************************************************************** Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mathstown (Support, Downloads & Usage Rights) Website: https://www.maths.town Twitter: https://twitter.com/MathsTown ********************************************************************************/ Music by: dumbledog$ $Unusual Symmetry - Perpendicular Mandelbrot Fractal Zoom (4k 60fps) Sometimes things are just so perfect that they dont need improving. This fractal zoom has no clever lighting or colouring effects, it just uses the normal escape time colouring that you have seen 1000 times before. However this is not the Mandelbrot Set, rather its beautiful sister the Perpendicular Mandelbrot fractal, which has some beautiful shapes and unusual symmetry. The deep imagery is really nice, so I put it first, we are zooming out today! Enjoy! And please hit subscribe. Rendered in glorious 4k! As usual, this video is best viewed at high-resolution.

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. Finally, a huge thank-you to my supporters on Patreon, and my loyal subscribers who have made this channel possible! If it wasn’t for you, this content would not exist.

I hope you dont mind me publishing the experimental stuff, but I know a few Patreons have been waiting for this. Ive lots of requests to make the fractals respond to audio, and Ive finally got it working. Now that is possible to control most parameters based on audio, there are several interesting possibilities for musicians trying to generate visuals. This video is not perfect, but the proof of concept is there. It is the last main feature I wanted to add to my little After Effects plug-in before I get is published on the website. Hopefully over the coming month, Ill get it online, and tutorials published so that you can do it yourself. (Patreons will be the first to know). I dont anticipate doing too many audio based zooms myself. Please hit subscribe!
