As I developed the formula for this fractal image, I couldn't help but see forms reminiscent of the Native American Thunder Bird. I created this image with a combination of the programs Vchira and Photoshop.

When putting together the fractal formula for this image experiment, I was struck by how much these fractal forms reminded me of trilobites, with psychedelic color dressings. I created this image using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop layering and filtering effects.

Often random patterns of nature show up in fractal images. When I was working on this fractal image, I saw forms that reminded me of crab pinchers here and there in the fractal shapes. Unfortunately, they are less apparent in this reduced resolution version, but if you look closely you can still see them. This image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering effects.

From the Psychedelic Fractals Dude series, I created this variation on the earlier "Psychedelic Trilobites Dude", evolving the fractal formula bringing out greater complexity in the shapes and forms. I created this image with a combination of the programs Vchira and Photoshop.

Another interactive art piece. Holding down a right or left click, one finds that a ribbon of whiteness is left against the black background. "Don't you mean a white ribbon, Joseph?" Not exactly - the whitness, itself, is treated as a kind of liquid, that flows according to rules one is left to decipher. There seems to be some sort of extrapolation from what one draws - quick movement narrowing the ribbon, slow movement broadening it - as if the cursor were a brush that a white liquid was flowing off of - to what is seen as one releases the click, and the whiteness left behind starts to move of its own accord. Close forms seem to move to new locations more slowly than open ones, which snake across a screen on which opposite sites are identified - go off the top edge, and you come in from the bottom edge of the black box where the ribbons move.

Right click, holding the click draw the cursor across the screen, and the software creates a little rounded wedge shape. Release the click, and the wedge shape, formed, is instantly reflected along a few different lines to create the beginning of a snowflake like figure. Insert a few more strokes, and you can quickly and easily create a nice looking stylized snowflake that you can set to rotate in two or three simulated dimensions, in a mannermanner that is surprisingly attractive , given how little work you just did. One flaw is that if you'd like to save that moving image you just created, there's no way to do so; right clicking on the image, you don't save the snowflake, you save the .swf file you used to create the moving snowflake.

The aesthetic conceptions of the Far East have been deeply influenced by a special philosophy of nature. The Chinese consider the relation of the two principles, male and female, the yang and the yin, as the source of the universe. Detached from the primordial unity, they give birth to the forms of this world by ever varying degrees of combination.

It has often been said that in Chinese painting, as in Japanese painting, perspective is ignored. Nothing is further from the truth. This error arises from the fact that we have confused one system of perspective with perspective as a whole. There are as many systems of perspective as there are conventional laws for the representation of space.
