Publisher's Synopsis
Fractals are visual depictions of mathematical equations-the same equations, in fact, that describe natural phenomena such as coastlines, plant shapes, and weather patterns. A computer program assigns a color to each point in the image based on the answer to a chosen equation, which then results in abstract fractal shapes. Artist Alice Kelley manipulated dozens of variable to create the fascinating organic designs featured in this twelve-month calendar. Each is accompanied by a quotation by prominent mathematicians and scientists.
