![Recursive PowerPoint Presentations [Gone Fractal!]
Thanks to Steve Mould for filming with me. Check out his How viruses self assemble video.

We have since made the t-shirt Im wearing available for purchase:

We have some free teaching resources for anyone who wants to make a large collaborative fractal! As well as complicated 3D ones weve made a new Think Maths low-prep giant Sierpinski triangle guide.

The second channel video takes a closer look at the pptx file and the details of what version of PowerPoint you need to make this work.

Tom Wildenhain has since made far more successful PowerPoint fractals than Steve and I were anywhere near.
