DESCRIPTION:
Dozens of variables are manipulated in order to create these fascinating psychedelic art images.. A computer program assigns a color to each point in the image based on the answers to a chosen equation, which then results in cosmic or abstract fractal shapes. The Fractal Cosmos wall calendar features the organic computer-generated designs of Alice Kelley, who says, Fractals are an intuitive glimpse into the infinite order that composes the natural world, as well as being proof that math is beautiful.12" x 12" wall calendar (12" x 24" open).A year of awe-inspiring fractal artwork on your wall.Frameable artbook-quality printing.The perfect gift for the math and computer science enthusiast.12 abstract computer-generated fractals by Alice Kelley.Features quotes from scientific luminaries such as Blaise Pascal and Sir Isaac Newton.Printed on paper sourced from a combination of sustainably managed forests and recycled materials.Published by Amber Lotus, an independent carbon-negative US company that has planted more than half a million trees since 2008.This calendar features US and Canadian legal holidays, phases of the moon, an
Kelley began making fractals herself a year later and found that she was able to manipulate and color fractal images in an intuitive manner. About the AuthorAlice Kelley discovered fractals in 1995 and began collecting other people's fractal images. Each fractal starts out as chaos, and I find the pattern in it, and that pleases me, she said. Since fractals are actually computer versions of natural fractal phenomena like coastlines, plant shapes, and weather patterns, they seemed to resonate with her because they do not appear to be artificial. So much of life and the universe is chaos, and I can take a tiny part of it and make beauty.. She was excited by their abstract beauty and the fact that such gorgeous pictures were created by math alone. Perhaps it's a metaphor
