XaoS Fractal zoomer
Ran into this the other day XaoS is a very impressive dynamic Fractal zoomer. XaoS also has a very cool tutorial/help system that explains what fractals are and how to use the program. Very easy to navigate and some of the included example are truly breathtaking. The program is very easy to use (Right click Zoom out, Left click Zoom in, Middle button drag) and has a ton of options and effects.
I used to play with Fractint way back and got close to doing my masters thesis on fractals. But have not kept up with it. I’m kind of sad to realize that the last version of Fractint was released on 9/9/99 much too long ago.
Here is a video of the deep zoom of the Mandelbrot set I’m not sure what program they used (XaoS , Fractint or something else)
