THE VOYAGE CONTINUES...A SIDE TRIP TO...

...THE HEART OF THE KOSMOS...


...THE MANDELBROT HEART...TAO...

"The universal web is made of number…but it is an oddly relational kind of number. Numbers with heart. They connect and hold the cosmos in synchrony. The loom is patterned chaos…"










THE EYE...that looks at God is also the eye with which God looks at us...

"The baroque mandala of the Mandelbrot set has been called the most complex and universal number relationship in mathematics. It describes designs of infinite depth, using fractal geometry. At its core lies the Mandelbrot heart. This dark heart was discovered by Benoit Mandelbrot in 1979 when he began to chart a pattern of awesome beauty within number itself…"










AN EXPLORER APPROACHES

"…versions of the Mandelbrot set look like valentines edged in frothy lace. Each dark heart lies at the intersection of real and imaginary number…"










THE HORROR

"…a riot of organic-looking tendrils and curliques sweeps out in whorls and rows. Magnifying a curlique reveals yet another scene; it is made up of pairs of whorls joined by bridges of filigree…As the zoom continues, such objects seem to reappear, but a closer look always turns up differences. Things go on this way forever, infinitely various and frighteningly lovely…"










ONE WHO KNOWS...but does not speak...
