Fractals - Hunting the Hidden Dimension
In the mind's eye
a fractal is a way
of seeing infinity.
- James Gleick, Chaos (1987)
Another quite interesting documentary from PBS' Nova. Whilst leaving the discussion of global warming for another place, another time, it seems safe to say this documentary gives a nice introductory view on the history of fractals and the influence they had and still have on science as well as art. Now, as for the effects on the mind of mankind in general and the central fractal antenna of an individual in particular ... that's a whole'nother story - a whole nutta, indeed.
Let's dive in, shall we? 720p & after thee!

...with another soundtrack?
To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour
- William Blake, Auguries of Innocence
