I have recently been thinking of my past and the things I used to enjoy doing. I have been trying to recall the things that I no longer do that brought me joy/pleasure in the hopes that I can identify what made me stop doing those things and possibly reignite the passion.

I have never been a particularly artistic person by nature, preferring more scientifically oriented fields, but in my younger days I came across an interesting concept called fractal art that I thought was a beautiful mix of both logic and creativity. I won’t go into too much detail as there really is quite a bit of content available that would explain it better than me, but essentially Fractal Art is an artistic rendering of an algorithm.

The below images were some of the images I created back then and I recall being quite chuffed with the results and enjoying the process immensely. I am not entirely sure why I stopped, but thought I would share these and see if you all thought it was a worthy pastime to revisit?
