Gallery Folders | Comments You have an amazing gallery,I couldn't brows all the folders though but I so like your FRACTALS works and I'm sure I'll visit again!
 most appreciated...
I honestly only went into fractals as I hadn't really done it before, and it kinda snowballed... I know nothing about the underlying math, but I pride myself on being able to learn most basic software with a decent GUI, and JWildfire for the Mac is pretty easy to pick up on... from there, it's been all about tweaking settings of a randomly-generated "flame" until something leaps out at me and begs to be preserved (not unlike, say wildlife photography, lol)... a lot of the works became deliberate in terms of the desired form, but a lot of the final outcome is still left to the quirks of fate... I just consider myself lucky if I can tell when to stop and save / render the things, lol... O Yes I understand how a new medium(discover/tool)can be overwhelming!
JWildfire works only with Mac?I never heard of this program,is it like PS?it really sounds interesting! I think when it comes to Fractals' creation you just let the tide takes control of you-if you know what I mean-quit like abstract. no, JWildfire is a Java app, so is platform independent...
and no, it is NOT like PS... its Mac interface is very much like a System 7 application... I therefore suspect the Intel version might be similar to an older Win app... it's actually a resurrection of an old Amiga application, lol and yes, I agree... it's often useful to just see where the app takes you... a majority of my better fractals went JUST that way... I amy have ahd a basic shape in mind, but I have yet to render a piece that hadn't already exceeded my "vision" by leaps and bounds... O I see,a Java app!
Ok though I have a limited idea about Fractals but I think there are "brushes' sets"in PS that do the same work,not sure of the info but heard about it  ,do you have any idea about that?and have you tried them before?Yes,it almost works out well,its so raw and spontaneous,just like when you do a sketch for a new drawing or painting! |
