Fractals: Video (VHS video casette)

A visual celebration of the fascinating world of fractals and contemporary mathematics, this new video is a combination of full-colour animated sequences and revealing interviews. The video turns the Mandelbrot Set and the Lorenz Attractor into visual objects that are as easily comprehensible as thev are endlessly fascinating. Their disioverers, Benoit Mandelbrot and Edward Lorenz, discuss the background, history, and details of their work. The video features computer-graphic illustrations of chaos and self-similarity, and music composed according to fractal principles.
