This music video is a pure fractal animation made for Flinch, who is
an electronic musician from North America. It is made in one of the
well-known and still-under-evolution fractal programs Mandelbulb3D,
except for minor post-render adjustments in Adobe Premiere. The
animation is altogether a combination of 4 basic fractal formulas
and what is seen during the 5:45 of the play is the result of
variations in the constructing numeric variables defining these
formulas or those controlling environmental phenomena like colors,
lights, etc. Two of the best known techniques in fractal animating
are magnification and the morphing of shapes and environments which
could be seen in this animation as well. Morphing struggles with the
constructing numeric relations defining the digital world around,
before our eyes in fast continuous processes. Non-stop rendering of
the final version of this 5:45 animation at 1280 x 720 pixels took
my hexa-core cpu more than two weeks.
