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.
