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

Warm fuzzy colors, like a pleasant memory. Very nice!!

Hmmm, Fractal Burga with cheese!!!! Either that or the Blue window at Chartre. Either one works for me.;)) No wait why choose- Blue cheese on the Burga at Chartres. Yeah, that's the ticket.

You're too much!..."Using some gradients woven by some tender women somewhere behind the pastel rainbows"...that's nice Andreas, as is this. I see a fantastic stained glass window! alas, all things must pass...weep not my brother, weep not.

A coke, a whisky and a burger, boy will that make one nauseous! Excellent fractal Andreas! Faboulous light in the golden parts, gorgeous little flowers and again those beautiful, not shiny colors! (Is there a word for not shiny, I tried the vocabulaire, but the word in Dutch has two meanings. The word is mat, which is in English also a mat, like a doormat and thats the only translation it came up with. In Dutch mat also means 'not shiny', but what is it in English?) I'm probably talking babelfish right now, so let others speak about this lovely work!

In English, the not-shiny translation is 'matte'. Andreas, this is stunning! The dark blue, backlit like this is very effective, the shapes are elegant and the textures unique. This is one of my favorites!

I see fractal posies. tiny little boquets of purple violets. so many to choose from. Ill take the one on the bottom left corner
invidiosa
this has a warm stained-glass feel to it with burnished wooden beams connecting the delicately constructed bits - beautiful colours

Andreas, I always knew you had a great sense of humor from the day I saw your picture on your home page at renderostity.. The glimmer in you eyes told me... but this is way beyond what I expected... You had me in stitches....besides being in awe of your fractal...

An infinite place of worship. No point for me trying to describe it any other way. Moving.
