Fractal Journey: 2008

Mandelbrot Ultra Zoom #4: 2.5E194

I believe this is the deepest Mandelbrot zoom video produced to date (November 2008). No pixel interpolation or frame interpolation were used - all images were individually rendered at 640x480 and then strung together at 30 frames per second.
Note that no camera rotation was utilized throughout the animation. This is especially intriguing because the zoom into the targetted filament tip shows the filament rotating around the screen's center. In other words, hidden at the extremity of the filament is a spiral!

Making an appearance at the 2008 Ig Nobel Awards is Fractal Journey's own Mandelbrot set image, originally posted here.

Who is that standing center stage?

It's Doctor Mandelbrot himself! Thanks to Geri Sullivan. Watch the entire 2008 Ig Nobel Prizes ceremony here.
