woah
Great patterns! I like the way that you think at the beginning "This will be quick", but it takes a long time... iteration 12 took ages. Anyway, great project! :)
<3 the designs!
Awesome! It looks like a spirals after a few iterations.
kind of on 8
are you a teather
nope, I'm an attorney and a programmer
(view all replies)cool! but it takes a while.
why is there a nazi symbol at 1 iteration?!
I noticed that as well.
i noticed that too....
Ah, come on, it's not a hakenkreuz but the first iteration of a quadruple Harter-Heighway fractal, which incidentally forms a brightly colored, level balanced and left-facing swastica (all traits not to be found in any Nazi stuff)
(view all replies)at ten, the yellow pops out at you like it's 3-d.
yeah, the yellow pops out.
when does it stop? p.s. i like 8.
me 2
oh. it stops at twelve
sterio types huh?awesome
it looks like it took you like ten hours to create this!
it looks very nice, but it gives me spots in front of my eyes
kannst du mir ein tipp geben wie man ein grosses spiel macht
AWESOME
what excactly does a dragon do?
It's just a forumula for a special kind of "curve" whose parts sort of repeat themsevles within themselves, a geometrical concept referred to as a "fractal".
(view all replies)that is just totally wicked awesome!!!
I have absolutely NO idea how you did this exept maybe all turn left/right??? that's al I can tell! WOW... PS a lot of ppl are putting like 10 comments u must b tired of reading more than 1 per person... wow long comment sry.
hee hee i post a lot
12 is tiny
it gets very long after a while
it hypnotizes after a while
wow, i thought that too!
beutiful art! I love it :)
And nothing overlaps!
Right! That's the beauty of the Heighway fractal curve
(view all replies)And on 12, the green line STILL looks like a cool tree! (/treevine hahaha.)
Wow, at iteration 12, the lines are so small!
And on 11, the green looks like a tree/tree vine!
so does 11.
On iteration 10 when its done, then the red looks like fire if u have imagination.
this is so cool
OH, WOW!
that wust have taken forever, its so complicated!
awesome
couldn't you just replace all the things you change in the levels by iteration +/- some?
I love BYOB! I've made so far: a [point to x (10) y (10)] block using trig! it is a very good example of something you can use it for; it has many individual variables, lots of messy scripts, and would otherwise be quite inconvenient for common use. also, previously I had to [set xtarget to mouse x] then [set ytarget to mouse y], and if you moved your mouse around alot then it would glitch. this dragon fractal is cool!
Thanks! It's great that you're experimenting with the BYOB prototype
Excellent!
hey, jens i recreated a few fractals of my own; mandelbrot:(link to project) and a Levy C curve:(link to project) a Sierpinski gasket:(link to project) and a Koch Snowflake:(link to project)
amazing!
Beautiful
its amazing how they get smaller and smaller
Wow, Looks really nice!
Beautiful!
Wow. Draws pretty quickly, actually. Hypnotic.
wooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!
hi i am with forest and would like to mension a idea could you click on a block and sticks on it sorry. Nice project
