Rotten Fractal (Dancing Octo) by abmlober

But now it seems I tweaked too long, the whole thing begins to dissolve... (LOL)
UF 3.03, no PP except resize, USM, signature.
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

It makes me think of tree roots and the way they entertwine. Lovely earth tones gives this a very organic earthy feel. Very natural. Nice texture work too.

I like "Dancing Octo" better. :) Not only are the colors and texture exceptional, the spiral design is original and captivating.

You made it real, that's why it can dissolve. The levels are so 3dimensional I feel I can sink my fingers into it. And the colors!!! I love that earth! and the checkerboard laced leaves that are dissolving into the bark. . . someone said magical-- yes, magical.

i missed this one somehow, which i find rather difficult to believe because it ^jumps^ right out at you in the thumbnail... it makes me think of Alice In Wonderland, and other favourite books from my childhood days...
