The Amazing Mandelbrot Set is a DVD video collection of 24 animated zooms into the most complex object in the realm of mathematics. Each zoom takes you on a stunning visual odyssey of infinite fractal geometry, revealing increasingly exotic fractal patterns to a final magnification of X100,000,000,000,000,000 (1017).
Since its discovery a quarter of a century ago, the Mandelbrot Set has become a universal icon for the doctrine of chaos--the emerging scientific idea that simple processes can result in infinite complexity. This abstract principle comes to life in the fractal deep zooms of The Amazing Mandelbrot Set--24 separate visions of the incomprehensible patterns that arise when a simple function is mapped onto the complex plane in vivid color. Each of 24 zooms explores a different region of the set's boundary, each with its own unique color palette.
