The world can be a very stupid place sometimes. You can take it seriously, or throw up your hands and go storming off.
It will still be there when you get back. Laugh sometimes, shake your head. It’s a tragic comedy – meaningful and absurd.

FRACTALS

I am fascinated by fractal geometry.

The Mandelbrot set can be explained with the equation z_n₊₁ = z_n² + c. In that equation, c and z are complex numbers and n is zero or a positive integer (natural number).

The result “z” is inserted again and run again.

Iterate millions of times and assign numbers to colours and plot to the screen. You end up with very natural looking graphics – fern shapes, bubbles, sea creatures and astronomical shapes.

Fractals can produce very realistic looking natural landscapes and anatomical structures like clouds, trees, canyons, mountains, circulatory systems and lungs.

They can also be used to compose music.

All the music on the site contains fractal segments.

The software, after a lot of adjustment and coaxing, produces 5 tracks of pitched music plus a percussion track. I then add perc, instrument, vocal and ambient loops and mix it.

There is editing involved on the original fractal file but it has a unique basic quality that I really like. It kind of hangs together in a natural way.

Can the maths behind our natural universe be as simple as this?

Just set up an equation and repeat.

THE COMPLEX WEB OF LIFE.

CONSCIOUSNESS
IS:
Awareness.
Unchanging through the being’s lifetime.
A characteristic of life.
A permanent witness.
Unmoved by what it experiences.
Sometimes referred to as the soul.
A quality with depth, that can be explored by letting go of what impinges on it.

IS NOT:
Our thoughts, emotions, memories, input of our senses both internal and external.
Something you can stand apart from and study.
Part of the brain. Think about it. If it doesn’t change, it isn’t part of the natural world.
