the art of fractal geometry

if terms like mandelbrot set . . .
julia set . . .
and lichtenberg figure . . .
excite you or leave you puzzled, it doesn't matter because either way, to begin this day, you get to see a beautiful video blending fractal geometry with art . . . .

The first one looks like one of those Rorschach ink blot tests.

All right, you asked for it. My 'mind' remembered a shamrock.

Upon looking at it again (just a few minutes ago), I see a sperm trying to enter an egg.


Now, I have 'fessed all', Steven. What do YOU see?!?

i've had a couple of "looks" goldenrod and to be fair i'll tell you that i turned my laptop sideways so the wider part of the image is at the bottom and the narrow part at the top. first look i see a buddha. second look i see a large-arsed snowperson toppling forwards - away from the viewer.
i think that a reasonably intelligent and forward thinking (in terms of establishing a firm and long-term financial commitment from me as a client) shrink would suggest that there might be some confusion in my mind between religious icons and sexuality!!!
