Mathematical Art [SciScoop Science Blog] Posted: One of the newer art forms that I have come to enjoy for about two years is fractals.  Now a lot of you probably know fractals as "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole" But to me, as an artist, fractals are in essence, putative abstract artworks, designed mathematically on a computer, that can form irregular geometric shapes and patterns.  The icon for our Sci-art category here at SciScoop is one of my fractals, surrounded by portions of various parts of scientific formulas such as the one for calculating the curvature of a wormhole.
