The mandelbrot set is probably the single most iconic picture in all of math. Yet, somehow, someway, there's always something about this fractal that I find myself scratching my head about. Today, let's look at one of those things :)

    Haven't been in a great headspace lately, sorry this took so long! If you enjoyed it, let me know and please consider subscribing :D EDIT: I got a couple comments asking why I'm not entering it into SoME2, and my reasons are I don't feel like this is the best video I could've made in the 2-3 month period it was out, and I personally feel like it would be disingenuous and against the values of the contest for me to enter a sponsored video. And lastly, the contest is about publicizing lesser known creators, and I wouldn't want to take the spotlight from someone who could benefit a lot more from it than me.

    The y=x becoming a tangent/secant line and limiting the process at the touch/intersection point was a nice geometrical reveal to me. So, I guess, for the full complex plane, we should consider a w=z hyperplane in a 4-dimentional complex space C² (with coordinates w and z analogous to y and x in R²), which limits the process when it becomes a tangent/secant to the hyperparabola w = z²+c, and boundaries of the Mandelbrot set are just values of the "offset" parameter "c" when it shifts the parabola so that w=z plane becomes exactly a tangential plane, right?

    Definitely reminds me of 3blue1brown’s videos on block collisions counting digits of pi. This seems a little different cause the digits aren’t exact, and while tan(x) appears, the answer isn’t based on tan x being approximately x for small x like the block collision solution is. Still I wonder if there is a connection.

    I don't know about opengl, but I've been playing around with opencl and I seem to be able to get a 1440p frame of an image orbit trap to render fast enough for around 24fps real time on a 6700xt gpu. I only have a basic pyqt script that renders that onto a qt label right now, but its nice to be able to play with image trap boundaries and see an image get warped around the mandelbrot set :) I wanted to also use gl (but not by itself) but it seems cl gl interop requires them to be compiled together :( edit: now that I'm thinking about this again, it was pyopencl that needed to be built with interoperability, my actual ocl install did have khr_gl_sharing

    can you explain why at 9:46 the distance between the two poles is pi/sqrt(epsilon), i found it as 2pi/sqrt(epsilon) because the asymptotes occur at pi radians, so nsqrt(epsilon) = pi, which implies n = pi/sqrt(epsilon). Then the distance between two poles is 2n, as the asymptotes are at n and -n? am i missing something?

    I don't 100% accept the graph that a computer shows to me. A computer has a different output from the real result when it comes to computing numbers except binary that can't have finite lengths' of digits, such as 1/3, 1/5, 1/7. Floating point value or double value have error, as far as I know. We can't even imagine or watch what the set really looks like.
