Fractal Expression is a IFS generator that creates fractals by iterating source images.

The program let you choose a image and it iterates it over the fractal, by applying a set of rules every iteration.
The resulting fractal is build out of transformed copies the original image.

Main Panel

The Main Panel has three tabs:

Fractal Tab

Formula Browser

Expression FormulaBrowser.png

This browser is used for selecting the formula type. As for version v0.2, there are 10 possible formulas (this will be expanded later).

Variation Browser

The variation browser is used for selecting formula variations. Not all combinations of formulas and variations produces fractal results.

The Sides slider

Expression SidesSlider.png

This control determines the number of sides that the fractal will have.

The Iterations slider

Expression IterationsSlider.png

This slider is used for setting the iteration depth. the maximum value is 255.

Save and Load Fractal buttons

Expression SaveLoadFractal.png

This is for saving and restoring the fractal parameters of expression. It's important to note that the actual Source Image data, is not included. The parameters are stored as simple text files.

The Slow Render option
