Pump Up The Volume [1990] - Pixies Wave Of Mutilation (UK Surf version) 1  The film is well worth a watch but somewhat dated - Both this scene and the Pixies song has stuck in my mind for a very long time. 2  My favorite scene in the film.
A fractal is a natural phenomenon or a mathematical set that exhibits a repeating pattern that displays at every scale. It is also known as expanding symmetry or evolving symmetry. If the replication is exactly the same at every scale, it is called a self-similar pattern.
In this case tortuosity of both straight line and circle is estimated to be 0. Fractal dimension has been used to quantify tortuosity. The fractal dimension in 2D for a straight line is 1 (the minimal value), and ranges up to 2 for a plane-filling curve or Brownian motion.
