“There’s a sample to the chaos” of the Mandelbrot set,a fractal construction that contains infinite complexity. Artist Bill Tavis has been fascinated with fractals since his youth, when he was an excellent math student. Though he pursued a career as an artist, and not as a mathematician,he’s advance full circle with the Mandelmap, an intricate map that celebrates the fascinating geometry of fractals. “Arising from a very simple and compact formula, or the Mandelbrot set” — named for mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot — “is stunning when seen as a whole … but its true wonders appear when you try to look closer at the border,” Travis says. It’s impossible to include the entirety of the infinite set in any visual representation, but Tavis hopes the poster will inspire artists, and mathematicians,and everyone else to “assume about fractals and our world in a original way.” See more of the Mandelmap’s intricate details here.
