Created using "Folded Patterns" in mmf5.ucl available from the Ultra Fractal formula database - though this currently uses an addition that I haven't released yet.
Since this isn't a fractal section I'll just add that Ultra Fractal is software designed to create fractal images but can in fact be used to produce almost any form of digital art.
In this case the algorithm used is using randoms in a similar way to as used in the classic "diamond-square" algorithm but is based on folding space rather than summations.
I'm not 100% sure if the results are strictly fractal or not - but then the looser definition of "fractal" varies almost as much as the definition of "art"
The title should of course feature a exclamation mark at the end, but it seems the programmers at DA are still very lazy.

And as for the title and punctuation marks (not to mention the number of allowed characters), that's been bugging me since I joined over 7 years ago - I mean sheesh, get with it already dA programmers! LOL!
Well they did me a favour really - I was going to call one of my others in my gallery here "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" but of course I couldn't so I settled on "Jules Verne's Journey" which fits the image much better anyway

2002 is when I gave up on developing MMFrac (c.1999-2002) because Frederik was basically doing almost everything I wanted to do with MMFrac (32-bit DOS) in Ultra Fractal (Windows).
However I'm no mathemetician so I just plod along. I've recently released from storage some of my old UF uploads but for some reason they're not appearing in my gallery (yes, sent a ticket, lol, more lazy types at dA helpdesk?) but some of my more recent ones are in my UF folder and in prints if you're interested in seeing them. Thanks!
