Fractal Movies in Lisp - Part 2

Sunday, April 9, 2006

Last year, I posted about the Fractal movies that David Steuber and Yannick Gingras had been developing in Lisp. Well, Yannick has a new set of Lisp-generated Fractal movies that he's produced. There's a short, online sample available that whets your appetite; however, if you like fractals, you'll really want to download his collection of movies - there's a torrent (the download is over 200MB). One nice bonus is that Yannick has included in the download a "mini-fract" version of his fract library. Unlike fract (which had a number of dependencies that I could never get to all successfully build under Mac OS X), mini-fract only depends on Zach Beane's Salza library. In addition, if you want to create a movie from the generated fractal images, you will need ffmpeg.
