waveXplorer - a very deep Fractal eXtreme zoom @ArthurStammet

Uploaded August 2013 | Updated September 2026, 1 hour ago

This fractal animation has been created by Arthur Stammet in August 2013. It's based on a very deep fractal zoom rendered with Fractal eXtreme and an electronic soundtrack, composed at the CNR (Centre de recherches) at Metz (France) in November 1987: "Scherzo elettronico 2 - Drops climbing down the Waterfront".

The fractal, which has a depth of 88260710400 iterations, explores a very minimalistic region of the standard Mandelbrot set. This very calm journey leads us to the tip of the frontal antenna of the set and lets us discover some mini Mandelbrots announced by a constantly growing condensation of "wave-rays". These kindly psychedelic interruptions allow the appearance of some nice bends, leading to abstract heads with two eyes.

A series of stills (the storybook of the movie) is available on flickr:

Renowned musicians Valérie Stammet and Arthur Stammet, collectively known as the captivating Duo Stammet-Stammet, breathed life into the live instruments during this transcendent psychedelic journey. Made with the fractal rendering engine Mandelbulb 3D and some scenes created with SpaceEngine, the essence of this video is meticulously curated to distill the immersive experience into its purest form, offering a profound reflection on its elemental essence. #fractal #mandelbulb #mandelbulb3D #meditation #crystalbowls #centering #performance #artist #cello #meditate #space #animation #animationvideo$ $Missing - Mandelbulb 3D and Groboto Fractal Animation This movie has been created by Arthur Stammet in May 2016 for the Fractalforums.com Annual Fractal Art Competition 2016. Three types of digital footage have been combined for this movie: a meteor fileld created with Visions of chaos, two rotating bots made with Groboto and a fractal world rendered in Mandelbulb 3D. All these elements have been brought together and layered in Premiere and mastered with some Filmora effects. The soundtrack is an electronic composition, produced by the author in november 2014. Its title Die Elements (The elements) describes what it is about: the four elements (fire, wind, water and earth), explored acoustically while one of our bots flies through the fractal heart of a meteor, expecting to be able to join its lost partner, missed since the initial collision.$

$Resonant Shapes - Mandelbulb 3D and SpaceEngine Movie This movie represents a crazy ride through sounding fractal shapes and our Galaxy. This flight being only possible in digitally generated worlds/contexts, the cinematic look, chosen for its presentation, tries to join our human approach to this subject: the beginning of the film has a vintage touch, coming with distorted black and white footage showing an impossible scene, which couldnt have been filmed, rendered in Mandelbulb 3D and giving life to a little part of the Universe existing in one only simple mathematical formula. Another impossible flight leads us through the Miky Way Galaxy, an easy task for the SpaceEngine simulator. The third impossible part of this movie is the soundtrack, realized with algorithmically created sequences based on the orbit of one only Mandelbrot point: -0.564483+0.459912i. Played with instruments from the Steinberg Iconica Sketch Library, the sound is nearby an orchestra depicting its string section and some percussions, but playing this score in reality should have been a nearly impossible task. #animation #movie #space #universe #mandelbulb #spaceengine #fractal #fractalanimation #steinberg #dorico #milkyway #galaxy #mathematics #mandelbrot #orbit$
