ANC that was phenomenal, thank you!
I've understood what fractals are but never thought how the knowledge can be applied, so simple. That video is going to be like formal and practical logic in philosophy, it will come back to wash over the mind again and again.

Fractals seem to be more obvious while trippin. Ever looked up in a forest while melting face?

Wonderful video, ANC! Fractal geometry is everywhere and everything... Fascinating. Like Hobbes said, I had a preconceived notion as to what fractals were, but not to what extent the influence they actually have on every goddamned thing in existence. Thank You for this enlightening program. Cheers!

On meditating over the video I started playing with "my own" little fractal. Which I think is more likely the fingerprint.
I started with half a circle, then instead of completeing the circle with an equal half, I doubled the next half, you could go on into infinty in either directions without a problem, and it will always be a copy of the larger scale.
The reason I chose doubling, is because that is the rate of cell growth, cells divide, i.e. double. This is the natural ordar and based on my observation of this experiment may beapplicable to the formation of matter. It certainly fits in with the notion that all parts of a fractal resemble other parts at a difirent scale.
Anyhow, what I ended up with was a nautilus shell.... OR a galaxy, both growing according to the same rules.
Then my eyes caught something else, the centre or gravity point would undulate up and down with the addition of every segment, echoing the undulation of planets, suns and galaxies on their axis. It is virtualy a byproduct of growth, keeping things in balance.
Also obseve what you are left with what you get when you cover either the left or the right of the image, compare it with the original.... tear in the time space continuem much?
So no we know spirals are fractals, is this why vortexes are often used to portray portals? Also strange how common vortexes are in our internal visions.

That is really profound, ANC. Do you enjoy enlightening people? Or do you do it for a living too 
But seriously, your spiral theory makes perfect sense. And you just stumbled upon this during meditation? Brilliant!

All we can deduce from this is that as intricate as the universe is .... in all it's complex glory ..... it is not as complicated at all and can be reduced to a single formula or an algorithm per say. Which in itself is amazing. Factoring in Quantum Physics... which we are just starting to understand (in relation to the fractals in a given application as per geometry in design)... this makes the concept of fractals even more exciting .... in the world of tech and nano computing alone.

ANC props on this thread !
Great Movie !!
Without hijacking this post ... please allow me to put this here
as a side companion or supplementary as it is all kind of related.

hells yea. great video. i have always drew these strange patterns when i was younger and i just realized that it was fractals i had been drawing this whole time. it totally blew my mind. im gonna start an art project soon and see what kind of trippy fractal patterns i can dream up. ill post sum when i get them going.

Yo have a look for some inspiration ...
HERE
Lots of quality wallpapers.
Especially for Lucy fans.
You will be saving pics for hours ... lol
If you find something you really like post it in line here !
I love this one ... at this junction in time.
Also, check this out ... this is how we do fractals ... similar set up ... the contraption is placed on top of a light table ....
Then you can record them in HD and project them on white walls ...

I have to give this thread some deep thought. But in utter wow of it all... and i'm not talkin about the reknown WoW
