> Fractal Lab is my {NOT AZEIRAH'S} personal technical and creative canvas where I can explore ideas freely in my own time without obligations and support commitments, so for the moment it isn't available online or for local installation.
I have some project ideas I first want to fully explore using Fractal Lab, after that I'll probably release the code.
Wow! The demo video[1] is really impressive. How are those effects created, I wonder? Do the fractals get their own depth maps? How do you arrive at algorithms that look so darn beautiful, especially those metal and plastic shaders? Is there prior art for this?
I paid the $4 and got it. Slick & entertaining. Not as hard-core math-ish as I'd like, but fun to zoom around in. There's in-app "pro upgrade", which I find a bit irritating if that's where the greater numeric control & deeper resolution resides.
It's pretty awesome, real time fractals on your iPad, a lot to explore. Looks really great. Having parameters and textures animate while you're zooming on an iPad in real time on a fractal is impressive.
