Description:


    Mandelbloom is an aesthetic piece which explores the relationship between fractals, flowers, and form. The film demonstrates the evolution of the Mandelbrot set as it evolves through its first several iterations. A new type of rendering technique utilizes texture-mapped roses to display the set at fractional iterations in order to reveal the connections between the Mandelbrot and its closely related Julia sets.
