During the tutorial I clicked Add and some boxes were created. I dragged them around on the canvas. I have no concept of how the resulting image [0] relates to what I created. It doesn't look like the kind of fractals (Mandelbrot etc) that I'm familiar with.
I also didn't figure out how to do anything other than move some boxes around. Probably I just missed something.

- ssalka 7y agoThe fractals on this site are not "escape-time fractals" like the Mandelbrot set, but iterated function systems[1], a more discrete fractal variant that starts with an initial generating set and then replaces each element with a smaller copy of the whole set (a good example would be ferns).

- sjf 7y agoAgreed, I can't see how the output is produced from the input, e.g https://fractal.parts/dfdfdfdfd https://fractal.parts/dfdfdfdfd it took several tries to even produce anything other a totally blank output.
