Have you ever seen a Mandelbulb?

What's a Mandelbulb? It's a 3 dimensional extension of that devilish Mandelbrot Set. These computer generated-images just blew me away. This isn't complex Industrial Light and Magic production going on here - it's a relatively simple mathematical formula at work.

Amazing what happens when you mix a little math with a lot of patience. Arthur C. Clarke had a show on TV re fractals a few years ago, but that was 2D stuff only if I remember correctly.
