Psychedelic 3D animation of virtual pottery with modulated texture mapping. This video was generated using PotterDraw, a free and open-source pottery design tool created by Chris Korda. The complex texture changes result from the visual equivalent of polymeter: the texture mapping's U and V coordinates are each modulated by their own oscillator, but at different frequencies, resulting in phase drift and long-term variation.

$Fractice Mandelbrot deep zoom to 2^316 (bigger than the universe!) This is an extremely deep dive into the Mandelbrot set, to 2^316 (binary). In decimal thats 1E+95, or 1 with 95 zeros after it. The coordinates are identical to a similar deep zoom movie posted to YouTube by user metafis, but my version has higher resolution (648x480), and was rendered with 2x antialiasing (four pixels computed for every output pixel). It also has an improved palette, similar to the one used by the Wikipedia Mandelbrot page. The uncompressed video looks better of course fractals are close to the worst case for video compression but H.264 does surprisingly well. The video was rendered using my own fractal software, called Fractice, which supports distributed processing using a client/server architecture. The render took five months, using a cluster of up to 20 dual-core PCs on a LAN, all running the Fractice rendering server. The actual number of servers varied over the five-month period but averaged around 15. Rendering only occurred at night. Fractice is a free, open-source fractal explorer/renderer for XP/Vista. It supports navigation, history thumbnails, previews, antialiasing, deep zoom, printing, posters, palettes, multicore and distributed processing, movie recording, undo/redo, color cycling, and job control. It also has VJ features, such as mixing, mirroring, origin motion, palette tweening, dual-monitor, and MIDI. For more info and to download Fractice: http://fractice.sourceforge.net$

$Al Fasawz Al Fasawz is a 38-minute ambient soundscape inspired by the sound of waves on the beach in Rockport, MA. The track is algorithmic music, and is intended for relaxation and meditation. It was created from a fixed number of sawtooth waves of constant pitch and stereo position. The waves are continuously frequency modulated by control loops of varying lengths, resulting in complex fractional polymeter which gives an impression of self-similar but non-repeating structure. The loops were controlled via custom software written by the artist. As in the later work Plasmagon, the algorithm includes feedback: a listener that monitors the output in order to determine the optimal time for changes. In this case this listener decides when to trigger the bass samples, based on its estimate of overall intensity.$
