Not a coral

1 min read
Over the past year, some users on Facebook have taken a fractal work of mine, posted some years ago here at Deviantart, stating that was a new found species of coral from the Galapagos Islands. It wouldn't have transcended very much, beside being one more post inside the big ocean what is Internet, but with time it became viral and became shared hundreds of thousands of times over FB and Internet. It became controversial and even newspapers had to check it and state it as fake news. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/03/31/fact-check-image-coral-near-galapagos-islands-digital-art/4819768001/ https://www.vishvasnews.com/english/viral/fact-check-post-claiming-to-show-a-new-species-of-coral-found-in-the-galapagos-islands-is-fake/ 3D fractals are relatively a recent discovery, being an approximation of a 3D set of the original Mandelbrot set and named as Mandelbulbs.
