This is lovely!
I went to a talk by Dr Alan Norton (I think that was his name) almost 20
years ago where he showed pictures similar to this he'd rendered at IBM
Bell Labs in USA. Ever since then I've wanted to attempt something like
that but unfortunately my mathematical ability is pathetic. He used 3d
"cross-sections" thru a 4d mandelbrot object calculated using quaternions.

By the way, did you intend to send the source with this? If so only the
render text output came. Do you intend to post the source? I would *love*
to look at it.

Best wishes,

- Miriam
