On each iteration choose an affine transform from a defined set - choose the one such that applying the transform to the current point produces a new point with the minimum magnitude. Apply the chosen transform (in this case scaling and translation only) then apply the main formula as normal, then apply the inverse of the IFS transform. In this way using 6 transforms for example will produce 6 copies of the main fractal *but* the copies interact with each other so changing the appearance of them all.
I've given you a tiny bit of 'thank you pimpage' in my journal [link] Let me know if you don't want to be there
How did you create that?
It's a modified "Mandelbulb" fractal created using my own formula for Ultra Fractal.
fantastic!!
I will double-fav this one D!
A mandelbulb hybrid?
HOW????
It's really quite simple.

I do get the basic concept, but it is beyond me at this time...
Thanks for explaining anyway!
