Summary:
Fractal art is a relatively new, computer generated art form. The designs are based on calculations of infinite fractal equations. As they are the representations of complex mathematical equations, they are not hand-drawn, but created using computer programs. “This is not the first time art and math have met – ancient mosaics, oriental rugs, and cubist art, for example, demonstrate the links between math and art.”
This picture displays mathematical thinking – repeated patterns are displayed and to provide an aesthetically pleasing piece.
Things Learned:
Fractal art is only done using computer software.
My Question:
This answers my question about mathematical thinking as fractals are exploring the patterns and finding the beauty in what seems to be chaos.
