Book Synopsis Chaos and Fractals by : C.A. Pickover
Download or read book Chaos and Fractals written by C.A. Pickover and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1998-08-03 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days computer-generated fractal patterns are everywhere, from squiggly designs on computer art posters to illustrations in the most serious of physics journals. Interest continues to grow among scientists and, rather surprisingly, artists and designers. This book provides visual demonstrations of complicated and beautiful structures that can arise in systems, based on simple rules. It also presents papers on seemingly paradoxical combinations of randomness and structure in systems of mathematical, physical, biological, electrical, chemical, and artistic interest. Topics include: iteration, cellular automata, bifurcation maps, fractals, dynamical systems, patterns of nature created through simple rules, and aesthetic graphics drawn from the universe of mathematics and art. Chaos and Fractals is divided into six parts: Geometry and Nature; Attractors; Cellular Automata, Gaskets, and Koch Curves; Mandelbrot, Julia and Other Complex Maps; Iterated Function Systems; and Computer Art. Additionally, information on the latest practical applications of fractals and on the use of fractals in commercial products such as the antennas and reaction vessels is presented. In short, fractals are increasingly finding application in practical products where computer graphics and simulations are integral to the design process. Each of the six sections has an introduction by the editor including the latest research, references, and updates in the field. This book is enhanced with numerous color illustrations, a comprehensive index, and the many computer program examples encourage reader involvement.

Book excerpt: Tessellations: Mathematics, Art and Recreation aims to present a comprehensive introduction to tessellations (tiling) at a level accessible to non-specialists. Additionally, it covers techniques, tips, and templates to facilitate the creation of mathematical art based on tessellations. Inclusion of special topics like spiral tilings and tessellation metamorphoses allows the reader to explore beautiful and entertaining math and art. The book has a particular focus on ‘Escheresque’ designs, in which the individual tiles are recognizable real-world motifs. These are extremely popular with students and math hobbyists but are typically very challenging to execute. Techniques demonstrated in the book are aimed at making these designs more achievable. Going beyond planar designs, the book contains numerous nets of polyhedra and templates for applying Escheresque designs to them. Activities and worksheets are spread throughout the book, and examples of real-world tessellations are also provided. Key features Introduces the mathematics of tessellations, including symmetry Covers polygonal, aperiodic, and non-Euclidean tilings Contains tutorial content on designing and drawing Escheresque tessellations Highlights numerous examples of tessellations in the real world Activities for individuals or classes Filled with templates to aid in creating Escheresque tessellations Treats special topics like tiling rosettes, fractal tessellations, and decoration of tiles

This Limited Collector's Edition book is available exclusively through the Anamcara Press website in sizes suitable for framing.A fractal is essentially a never-ending, repeating pattern. Fractal geometry can reflect and illuminate structures and patterns found in nature-from mountains, coastlines, and hurricanes to movements of the stock market over time. Perhaps, fractals can be seen to represent a metaphor for our chaotic times as we attempt to understand the processes and structures which are manifest in the chaos and ineffable beauty of our ever-changing and dynamic natural world.
Download or read book Fractal Worlds written by Michael Frame and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fractal geometry is a uniquely fascinating area of mathematics, exhibited in a range of shapes that exist in the natural world, from a simple broccoli floret to a majestic mountain range. In this essential primer, mathematician Michael Frame—a close collaborator with Benoit Mandelbrot, the founder of fractal geometry—and poet Amelia Urry explore the amazing world of fractals as they appear in nature, art, medicine, and technology. Frame and Urry offer new insights into such familiar topics as measuring fractal complexity by dimension and the life and work of Mandelbrot. In addition, they delve into less-known areas: fractals with memory, the Mandelbrot set in four dimensions, fractals in literature, and more. An inviting introduction to an enthralling subject, this comprehensive volume is ideal for learning and teaching.
Download or read book Fabulous Fractals written by Ed Seeman and published by Wider Screenings TM. This book was released on 2020-07-26 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Ed Seeman’s art is alive with myriad shapes that toy with perspective and the figure / ground relationship. A true 1960s sensibility is evident in Ed’s work.” Ed Seeman was a professional artist, photographer and cartoon cel animator for four decades. In 1960s New York, his oil paintings were represented by “East Hampton Galleries” on 57th Street and one of his works was in the New York Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art for three years. Individual paintings have been purchased by the Chrysler Museum in Provincetown, the University of Massachusetts and many private collectors. Five of Seeman’s experimental films are in the US Library of Congress and, most notably, his Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention film won a Cine Gold Eagle at the Venice Biennial. His short Space Oddity won a Silver Phoenix at the Atlanta Film Festival. Seeman’s career as a cartoon cel animator began at Paramount Pictures, animating such legendary characters as Popeye and Casper the Friendly Ghost. In TV animation, Seeman brought to the small screen many of the USA’s most popular characters, including My Little Pony. For this work, he has received many Clio awards, Addys and other TV advertising honors. In the process of using computer technology to paint his hand drawn cel animations, Seeman discovered the tremendous digital potential for experimentation in color and abstract form. Thereafter embracing the Giclee method of printing to canvas, he created artistic works from the digital realm that truly reflected the myriad preoccupations of our times. By perfecting his computer painting ability to produce his animated TV commercials, Seeman found he no longer needed to paint with oil and acrylics to produce art on canvas. Now, with the aid of large digital printers, he produces artwork directly from computer to canvas. Colored, pigmented, ultra-violet resistant inks produce much brighter colors than were ever available using ordinary paints. With these technologically enhanced painting tools, Seeman produces uniquely stunning digital abstract artworks. Anthologized herein is a showcase of Seeman’s digital art: over 200 fractals, with an introduction by the artist. These digital artworks were initially emailed individually as .jpeg files by Seeman to a private network of connoisseurs before being formatted into digital e-Book.

Download or read book Fractal Dimensions written by Eric Hammel and published by IPS Books. This book was released on 2014-08-22 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept behind fractal geometry is extremely difficult to explain . . . but easy to see and enjoy. Eric Hammel, a professional author of military history books, is unable to explain fractals in a way that will be clear to anyone else, but most mathematicians can’t explain fractals in language most people can understand. The simplest explanation is that fractals are graphic representations of high-order mathematical formulas that repeat patterns to infinity. Don’t get hung up on the math. It’s really all in the seeing. Like Volumes 1, 2, and 3 of Eric Hammel’s Fractal Dimensions, Volume 4 is filled with one hundred examples representing many types of fractals. The differences between and among fractal artists using the same array of fractal-generating software is the same as the differences between and among all portrait artists or between and among all landscape artists using oil paint, chalk, watercolors, charcoal, even fingers. It all comes down to the unique mind’s eye the artist brings to the game and what he does to improve or transform the art once the fractal-generating software has been sufficiently exploited. For all that, all a lay person really needs to appreciate fractals in their infinite varieties is a collection of fractal art to peruse, to get lost in for awhile, and their own preferences for art. No two fractal artists will see or exploit the same fractal formula the same way. What we offer here is simply what one fractal artist has been able to see, and what he alone decided he wants to share.
Book Synopsis Fractal Geometry in Architecture and Design by : Carl Bovill
Download or read book Fractal Geometry in Architecture and Design written by Carl Bovill and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1996-03-28 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: na broad sense Design Science is the grammar of a language of images Irather than of words. Modern communication techniques enable us to transmit and reconstitute images without needing to know a specific verbal sequence language such as the Morse code or Hungarian. International traffic signs use international image symbols which are not specific to any particular verbal language. An image language differs from a verbal one in that the latter uses a linear string of symbols, whereas the former is multi dimensional. Architectural renderings commonly show projections onto three mutual ly perpendicular planes, or consist of cross sections at different altitudes capa ble of being stacked and representing different floor plans. Such renderings make it difficult to imagine buildings comprising ramps and other features which disguise the separation between floors, and consequently limit the cre ative process of the architect. Analogously, we tend to analyze natural struc tures as if nature had used similar stacked renderings, rather than, for instance, a system of packed spheres, with the result that we fail to perceive the system of organization determining the form of such structures. Perception is a complex process. Our senses record; they are analogous to audio or video devices. We cannot, however, claim that such devices perceive.
Download or read book Indra's Pearls written by David Mumford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-04-25 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Felix Klein, one of the great nineteenth-century geometers, rediscovered in mathematics an idea from Eastern philosophy: the heaven of Indra contained a net of pearls, each of which was reflected in its neighbour, so that the whole Universe was mirrored in each pearl. Klein studied infinitely repeated reflections and was led to forms with multiple co-existing symmetries. For a century these ideas barely existed outside the imagination of mathematicians. However in the 1980s the authors embarked on the first computer exploration of Klein's vision, and in doing so found many further extraordinary images. Join the authors on the path from basic mathematical ideas to the simple algorithms that create the delicate fractal filigrees, most of which have never appeared in print before. Beginners can follow the step-by-step instructions for writing programs that generate the images. Others can see how the images relate to ideas at the forefront of research.
