Fractals are mathematically calculated forms mapped on a 2D graph which, with today’s we can be map it into a 3D space (x,y,z), these formulas are algebraic and the form is achieved by infinitely repeating the same pattern at differing scales (usually smaller or self similar), these patterns can be rigid square-like grids or organic grids that look like plant growth, to many more varieties of patterns which can look arbitrary, but in fact are meticulously calculated.

However, what makes the Mandelbulb unique is its incoherent algebraic formula that makes
no mathematical sense, it does however produce a geometrically beautiful composition that is easier to translate into 3D space than other fractal formulas.

The Mandelbulb is created by continuously duplicating lengths and angles of points in space. Iterations of 4 to 8 usually produce an aesthetically pleasing Mandelbulb form.

3D Software - Mandelbulb Expert

This Animated 3D Fractal shows the transformation of a orb into a complex fractal geometry. This animated graphic was created as a self titled showcase of the Mandelbulb software and the incredible works achievable by a Mandelbulb professional. Often used in generative designs, we are big fans of Mandlebulb and the breadth of surrealist imagery that can achieved, inaccessible to other 3d modelling software and only Achieveable by a true professional.
