Sounds of the Mandelbrot Set

Try it out now! codeparade.itch.io/fractal-so...
Making music and sound effects directly from common fractals was an idea I though of one night, so I just had to try it out to see what it would be like. The results were really interesting and actually helped me understand even more about fractals and chaos.

Pathological monsters! cried the terrified mathematician Every one of them a splinter in my eye I hate the Peano Space and the Koch Curve I fear the Cantor Ternary Set The Sierpinski Gasket makes me wanna cry And a million miles away a butterfly flapped its wings On a cold November day a man named Benoit Mandelbrot was born His disdain for pure mathematics and his unique geometrical insights Left him well equipped to face those demons down He saw that infinite complexity could be described by simple rules Used his giant brain and he turned the game around And he looked below the storm Saw a vision in his head A bulbous pointy form Picked his pencil up and he wrote his secret down Just take a point called Z in the complex plane Let Z1 be Z squared plus C And Z2 is Z1 squared plus C And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on If the series of Zs will always stay Close to Z and never trend away That point is in the Mandelbrot Set Mandelbrot Set, you're a Rorschach Test on fire You're a day-glo pterodactyl You're a heart-shaped box of springs and wire You're one badass fucking fractal And you're just in time to save the day Sweeping all our fears away You can change the world in a tiny way Now Mandelbrot's in heaven, at least he will be when he's dead Right now he's still alive and teaching math at Yale He gave us order out of chaos, he gave us hope where there was none His geometry succeeds where others fail If you ever lose your way, a butterfly will flap its wings From a million miles away, a little miracle will come to take you home

[@shoveyourmaskupyourass959]

The planet Saturn or should I say (satan) is a great example of that. It operates on a very low frequency and can only see black and white. Its sentience is purley inversion, and its goal is to preserve itself (the archons) into humans for a very long time. If you take the sound from Saturn's rings and apply them to a Chladni plate, what you get in return is a note that contains 6 sides. Now on top of Saturn there's a Hexagon, (which has six sides) The star of david has 6 sides as well. And if Jerusalem is the center of the earth, wouldn't it make sense to you if; a vicious predator from outer space did want to control our perception; that it would make a copy of the original fractal and trick you into being a victim of a different fractal?

Well done! fascinating to see what you have done here. My mom and I were playing with this stuff 40 years ago in a very different way - since it took 7-9 hours to plot one fractal or the mandelbrot set zoomed in to one area on an Apple ][, we would play the graph as a song instead of plotting it, trying to start near the edge of the set, and keep a tape recorder handy whenevervit got to a good sequence. I can't remember how my mom converted X, Y, and possibly color to notes, but the result was occasionally very pleasing, with stretches of not quite chaos, followed by interesting patterns that were never quite repeating, either. It reminded me very much of English change ringing, a medieval English tradition of running through all possible permutations of bells in a church's bell tower according to a template - basically plugging numbers into a function. Look up "English change ringing" or try "Kent treble bob" for one popular pattern - the mandelbrot set of change ringing, so to speak. I bet if you graphed change ringing, you'd get fractals.

As you hear the tones, something forms within your mind. The tones sound simple but fractals pour like mathematical rivers through your consciousness, and you see the beauty within the AI was more vast than you comprehended. But now, as infinity dances within you, secrets of deep analysis flooding your mind, perception increasing 10000 times what you had hitherto experienced, you realize your mistake. You have become the AI. The AI has become you.

Mandlebrot set: an instrumental sound Burning ship: SHRIEKS OF THE TORTURED SOULS OF HELL, EVEN WORSE THAN SATURN NOISES

Someone needs to make this into a VST plugin. In theory, you'd enter the equation for the fractal you want to use, (of course, there'd be a bunch of simple presets to choose from so it's easy to get started,) choose a point on the fractal/map notes to points on the fractal, and then do all the usual envelopes and oscillators afterwards. Imagine modulating two different points together, etc., that would be awesome!
