My Journey into Fractals
I love fractals.<p>A few weeks ago we were at the UMC Nijmegen for a CT scan (father-in-law; liver-cancer; luckily slow-growing and treatable) they had an exhibition of illustrations from Haeckel of microscopic organisms. It struck me at the time just how much those structures reminded me of fractals as well as how beautiful they are.<p>You can see some pictures here:<p><a href="https://www.mediamatic.net/en/page/370096/the-haeckel-project" rel="nofollow">https://www.mediamatic.net/en/page/370096/the-haeckel-projec...</a><p>And a book:<p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Art-Science-Ernst-Haeckel-Multilingual/dp/3836526468/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1538756108&sr=8-1&keywords=haeckel" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Art-Science-Ernst-Haeckel-Multilingua...</a>
