Le fascinant univers des fractales. Untitled. La Matrice. Galeries d'images fractales. Mystery of the Real 3D Mandelbrot Fractal. They're all very nice, but imagine such pictures in three dimensions, with all the advantages that 3D can allow such as parallax, perspective, and richer detail along with subtle light sourcing, shadows, and reflections. And actually, it turns out there are quite a few '3D' Mandelbot pics out there if you look..... Mandelbrot Flavours .....But are they the real McCoy, or just pale imitations? In fact, whenever you see a so-called 3D Mandelbrot image, roughly speaking, they can be divided into four types: Existence of 3D Mandelbrot set?
No, the thing I've been looking for has the essential characteristics of the traditional 2D Mandelbrot, but extended to 3 dimensions. It's hard to imagine what such an object might look like (or even if it ultimately exists, although maths has a knack of doing pretty much anything), but we can be sure of one thing - it will have exquisite detail running through each dimension, far exceeding the versions shown above.
