Theory Talks: Theory Talk #20: David Harvey What is, according to you, the biggest challenge / principal debate in current IR (International Relations)? And what is your position or answer to this challenge / in this debate? I think the principal challenge is to theorize ‘correctly’ the relationship between the territoriality of political power and the spatiality of capital accumulation. To clarify that statement, one has to inquire into the nature of these respective processes. I’ve tried to work out for myself how to think about these two logics but I understand that my answers might not necessarily be the correct ones, but I think we should be having a far more serious debate on that question. How did you arrive at where you currently are in IR? For me, the epiphany came in the late 60s, early 70s, when I understood that the field I was working in, that of quantitative geography, simply couldn’t grasp what was going on politically in Vietnam nor economically with the crisis of ’72-’75. I’d like to ask: what is the state?

Saskia Sassen The Unravelling of the Real 3D Mandelbrot Fractal Visit First page Experimenting with iterations and powers Okay enough eye candy for now. Let's have a closer look at the structure of this beast. The final stage (infinity iterations) is very similar at first glance to iteration 5000 (unless you zoom right in), as the shape converges to a shape comprised of tangent circles. One interesting question is: Does this same phenomenon happen with our power 8, 3D Mandelbulb? Power 8 (zooming into this object produces all the eye candy on the previous page): Click any picture to enlarge. A higher quality image below, and a super-large 4000x4000 version is here for the patient. And once you zoom into that, you get the magic as shown before. Squaring (power 2) Zooming in to the object above will produce mostly relatively dull patterns and maybe one or two surprises, but which still mostly have only 'whipped cream' style textures (see here for a 7500x7500 pixel render if you're patient). Finally, let's take a look at power 3. Power 3 Click any to enlarge.
The Creativity Post About 3D fractals and Mandelmorphic art What Are 3D Fractals? In 2009, after a two-year effort, a group of innovators from Fractal Forums found a way to project the Mandelbrot set and similar equations into three dimensional space. A typical Mandelbulb, generated with Mandelbulber This mathematical transformation that manifested the two-dimensional Mandelbrot set as the three-dimensional Mandelbulb, Daniel White and Paul Nylander (and the rest of the group at Fractal Forums) opened the door into a world populated by a previously unknown kind of object: the 3D fractal. The Mandelbulb and the Mandelbox (discovered in 2010 by Tom Lowe) are ‘pure’ manifestations of the Mandelbrot equation and exhibit the same kind of bottomless, self-similar detail. Beyond these two shapes exist a wild variety of endlessly detailed 3D fractals. Mandelmorphosis A typical Mandelbox, generated with Mandelbulb 3D (MB3D) 3D fractals are a range of chaotic equation-based objects—most often derived from- or related to- the Mandelbrot set.

Images des mathématiques Il y a un mois, on voyait apparaître un peu partout sur internet des images d’une nouvelle famille d’ensembles fractals. C’est un groupe d’amateurs, enthousiastes d’images fractales, qui en ont fait la découverte en collaborant dans un forum. Une discussion en ligne sur le sujet du « vrai Mandelbrot 3D » a démarré en septembre et avait plus de 500 contributions vers la fin de novembre. Des dizaines de personnes ont participé en faisant des suggestions de modifications sur les formules et sur les techniques de visualisations, mais on doit attribuer l’idée pour le Mandelbulb , le « bulbe Mandelbrot » à Daniel White et Paul Nylander . De quoi s’agit-il ? De nombreux lecteurs connaissent probablement l’image de gauche qui est l’ensemble Mandelbrot en 2D. La figure est fractale : même élargie à l’extrême on voit des détails époustouflants (voir par exemple ce film, extrait de Dimensions, où on peut aussi voir l’effet de prendre le carré d’un nombre complexe sur une photo). Le « Bristorbrot »
Green Growth New Shoots | GGNS THE formula for Mandelbulb? I think the best reference for this so far is the one already quoted, i.e. Paul Nylander's definition which also gives some of the non-trig versions: In my case my current formula for UF uses that method except the original version that Paul refers to where the sign of the final "z" term is reversed - I'm going to add the option to use the +sine version as an alternative. Another way of writing the (positive sine) same formula in Ultra Fractal is: ztemp = ((r=cabs(zri)) + flip(zj))^@mpwr zri = real(ztemp)*(zri/r)^@mpwr + cri zj = imag(ztemp) + cj Where ztemp, zri and cri are complex and r, zj, cj and @mpwr are real though @mpwr could be complex. Historically speaking I believe the negative sine version was preferred as it has less "whipped cream" on the z^2+c version But I agree with Paul in his comments about the positive sine version being more "correct" mathematically speaking.
