Do you know? The world is full of patterns and designs. If you have seen one, it leads to others, you can vary them, play with them, ...BIOBorn in December 1, 1963, Germany. Studied mathematics and physics in Heidelberg (lost my heart there :-) I still live not too far from this wonderful town and enjoy visiting it as often as possible.
I started with Fractals in October 1999. It did not take long until I noticed that writing colourings is my true fractal desire :-)
Inspired by Damien M. Jones, Mark Townsend, Edward M. Perry, Samuel Monnier, and others
I began to imitate their style. Being a software developer I finally found my own coding style in UF.
After a while I found some friends in the UF world whom I share my ideas and images and ... with.
They give me the impetus for creating new UF code. They show me what an artist can create with it :-)
And now? Now I look over all my pieces of code and try to reorganize them in a way that allows me
to create code with them more or less automatically :-)
Or I take a sheet of paper (!!!) and a pencil (!!!) and sketch some patterns and designs
and hope to find some time to transfer them into UF code.
But these patterns do not really fit into the fractals. Fractal processes distort them and
disturb the geometry. And thus I changed from making fractals to creating 2D geometric designs.
I still use my fractal program - because it can manage making images from mathematical code.
Who inspires me in the real world:
Paul Klee
Wassilij Kandinskij
Francis Bacon
Good old Single Island Malt (colour, scent, taste, warmth, ...)
Sometimes traffic signs or a new T Shirt design (please don't laugh (at least not too loud))
Water colour paintings

I'm honored to leave the first comment under this incredible piece of fractal art. Welcome back, Andreas! I love the richly colored Julia; superb lighting and melancholy mood and awesome texture work. A sweet little partially pearlescent sphere and a very cool paper texture back. Outstanding!

A somber, richly textured, and strikingly contrasted spiral tower..I like the embedded pearl idea well... Fine and meticulous craftsmanship....

Very beautiful.

Welcome back. It is hard to know what to say as this is far different from the 'abmlober style' I have seen in the past. The textures are much more to my liking--subtle, yet present. I like the coloring. I like the little sphere in the left spiral. A moody fractal and beautiful.

Congrates on your new baby,Nice work.

Excellent textural distortion of the fractal - it leaves just the right amount of the underlying structure visible. I like the colours too.
sossy
amazing illusion and concept! cool colored spiral work! ;o)

This is absulutly stunning, easy to see that you pave the way!

This reminds me of nebula forming and expanding in space -- or sea shells forming in tiny coves. As above, so below ... but then I suppose that's the meaning of fractal images. Beautiful and thought provoking. Well done. **

Amazing artwork with this fractal - and I love that pearl appearing here again..
figharo
Very ominous, even in thumbnail mode it made me feel like something threatening was rearing up to confront me... Well done, very strong!
Lipa
Impressive.
