摘要
This brief note and artistic statement describes the development of new software to render 3D Mandelbrot and Julia sets. This differs from others in the field in that the algebra used by most 3D-fractal software is either quaternion or hypercomplex. while complexified quaternion (equat) algebra is neither. This results in a different perspective for 3D imagery of this type. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
