This is a Whirl based on an inverted Buddhabrot rendering.

This is an impressive high resolution Buddhabrot rendering detail resembling a nebula in outer space. The colours and its depth are intriguing - it immediately creates a strong desire to explore it riding a futuristic spaceship.

A classic Buddhabrot rendering occupying 90% of the dynamic range per pixel and channel at 16 bit at a total resolution of 25000x25000 (625 Megapixels).

This is a Buddhabrot detail featuring the shoulder region of a high resolution Buddhabrot rendering. A larger reproduction reveals and presents all the details that would otherwise be hidden and invisible (see the recommended sizes below).

An inverted Buddhabrot rendering where the computed channels are additionally applied in reversed order. As with the other Buddhabrot artworks the rendering uses 90% of the dynamic range per pixel at 16 bit at a total resolution of 25000x25000 (625 Megapixels).

This study features the three main colours of the RGB color space and fractal patterns out of the Mandelbrot Set at an ultra-high resolution.

The Buddhabrot is the probability distribution over the trajectories of points that escape the Mandelbrot fractal. Its name reflects its pareidolic resemblance to classical depictions of Gautama Buddha, seated in a meditation pose with a forehead mark (tikka), a traditional topknot (ushnisha) and ringlet hair.

When you mirror a complex pattern horizontally very often the result resembles something - or someone - by sharing just the natural horizontal symmetry. In this case the result looks like someone or a being looking at you.

If you are interested in the mathematics behind the computation of the Mandelbrot set and its relation to Julia sets these video explanations are just perfect and fun to watch.
