The Author My name is Paul Carlson. With the exception of Mind-Boggling Fractals , all of the programs were for my own use and would have been very difficult for anyone else to use. About six years ago I discovered a general method of rendering fractals that produces fractals with sharply defined elements having a rounded, 3D appearance. I began posting some images to the alt.binaries.pictures.fractals newsgroup in the spring of 1995 and was soon offered free webspace for fractal galleries at universities in France, the United States and Canada. Some of my images were also published in the scientific journal, Science .
All programmers think that their programs are easy to use.
But I do believe that Mind-Boggling Fractals makes the exploration and experimentation as easy and enjoyable as possible, especially for beginners. Whether or not you decide to purchase the CD, I hope you have enjoyed the images at this site.
