The solutions proposed by fractal mathematics have led various branches of human endeavor to incorporate them into their workings. People have begun to see the world in fractals, non-integer ...

One transistor can become an oscillator with a surprising richness of behavior. However, even more interesting effects emerge if the structure of connections is fractal and shows some imperfections.

The simplicity of the stains' repeating patterns is key to why we see so many images in them. It’s easy to see familiar shapes in seemingly random patterns. Witness how many people see faces in clouds ...

Humans are visual creatures. Objects we call “beautiful” or “aesthetic” are a crucial part of our humanity. Even the oldest known examples of rock and cave art served aesthetic rather than utilitarian ...

Researchers from the University of Cambridge took a big step forward this year in understanding how our brains work. It seems that the brain has a fractal organization. This likely gives us much of ...

If you have been at all aware of the two-decade-old movement known as Swiss Minimalism, you've likely seen Stephan Thelen's name crop up. Lately, it would be fairly difficult not to. From 2018 to 2023 ...

That discovery emerged among children who've been raised in a world of Euclidean geometry, such as houses with rooms constructed with straight lines in a simple non-repeating manner, said the study's ...

Furthermore, it appears that fractal complexity (or rigidity) is routinely exchanged among biological, psychological, and social processes. Fractal personality structure helps us to grow and connect, ...
