Bill Tavis Mandelmap Fractal Poster (36 x 24 inches)
Meticulously researched and compiled, the Mandelmap poster functions as a thought-provoking guide to the astonishingly complex Mandelbrot set. The Mandelmap provides an informative overview of the most common features of this famous fractal shape. Every element in the poster was created from scratch, from the coffee-stained paper scanned in for the antique look, to the computer generated plotting of the set. The crisp details and vintage style will look great in any home, office, or classroom. The Mandelbrot set is a fractal shape that reveals fascinating details upon magnification. It gets its name from Benoit Mandelbrot, who is often referred to as the father of fractal geometry. Fractals are a new class of geometry that are known for their roughness, their self-similarity over many different scales, and their resemblance of naturally occurring forms - all of which can easily be observed in the Mandelbrot set. Perhaps the most stunning feature of the set is that all of it's infinite complexity emerges spontaneously and reliably from one very simple equation, through the process of iteration. Although the Mandelbrot set is very complex, there are definite patterns to the chaos - and the Mandelmap poster was designed to help make sense of it all. The text introduces and explains many of the core concepts, including a description of how to solve the equation. And as a functional map, if you are using one of the many programs available for exploring the Mandelbrot set, this poster will help you find your way around visually as you zoom in to this infinitely beautiful shape.
