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

Renderosity is a nice place to virtually meet interesting people and begin some nice friendships...

Looks kind of like halfrusty metal. Very interesting composition, and ofcourse... nice frame. :-)

Awesome image, great dust fractal!

Wonderful bark-like texture..and the back text is awesome, too. Love your choice of minimal color.

I like it alot!

I love the background tombstone and the amazing textures. Sorry to say I haven't used any other flame programs, but I did play with Dust once, and it seemed easy to learn, but not sure how much control you have with it.

I like it very much. Silvery pieces floating over a strange landscape.

amazing image, i love it

I can't tell you what you asked about technical things.. but man, this image is so creative, original and beautiful :) You again surprise me and make me stay admired in wonder. Hugs infinite :)

When I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a photo. It has a very naturalistic look to it. It's very tactile and has a serious atmospheric mood. Strong piece.

immediatly caught my eye!!! indeed it seems very real with an inch of sci-fi! brilliant!!!!!

Lots to see here! I like the diamond-encrusted foreground object, and the background colours and texture and frame and...

I am using Dust fractals now for about a week,but I do not succeed with pp them into paint shop pro. But... Dustfractals give beautiful shapes.And I only have to hit the mouse button.Your composition is just wonderfull !It fits right to the bg.With beautifull earth colors,my very best compliments.

the title alone got me- now after reading some of the comments i realize there's such a thing as dust fractals- (i know so little of this stuff) but i know i find this very attractively intriguing- has a nice DOF, earthy colors & contrasting textures :]
