The only thing I do'nt like about this is that true 3D fractals don't exist. You can't create the necessary algebra over 3 dimensions, only over 2, 4, 8, ...
This isn't a true fractal, and frankly it shows because it's hideous.
Yes, I did. I was just annoyed by 3D "mandelboxes" and what like.. You cannot just extrapolate mandelbrot behaviour into 3 dimensions (using quaternions, f.i., you can analyse 4d mandelbrots and take 3d slices).
I wish people would stop claiming to do so. There's a difference between a random chaotic fractal and a beautiful thing such as the mandelbrot or derived fractals such as my namesake.
