Fate...do we change the path by imagining a choice?

I'm into fractals myself.

Interesting, I played around a bit with fractals myself in university. Interesting thing about them is that you'd never really know what beauty hides inside those simple computations without the power of computer visualization.

Is that some kind of computer language? Awfully strange looking one, but not so much stranger than a densely written Perl prog full of regular expressions and pattern matching and special variables. Or LISP - never could quite get the hang of using recursion to do everything.
