Best fractal art ever
posted by Keith at 9:28 PMI would like to thank everyone who contributed to the best fractal threads. I created them out of honest curiosity, not to feed or starve egos.
Can we conclude that they must be the best fractals ever? I don't think so. It is just too narrow of a sample to be "mathematically correct", but I do think that some interesting speculation can be drawn from it.
I find the variety of styles and fractal types to be the most interesting data on our best ever list. There are scenes, abstracts and spirals. They came from three different fractal programs (as far as I could tell) with various amounts of post processing.
We know what fractals are, but I don't think that "fractal art" has been defined. This makes it impossible to know what the very best fractal art is. Cool. Let's hope that fractal art is never defined and that it continues to be diverse. The best fractal art will come from that diversity.

Keith, this is one of the best texts I ever read about what is Fractal art. I agree with you that it shouldn't be defined. All art made with a computer is math under the hood, even Photoshop, Illustrator, 3D and the likes. It is just that each of those tools specializes in one or few kinds of math. IMO, the tool shouldn't be used to define the art mostly if one consider that one often has no choice than using more than one.
