Mandelbulb: The Unravelling of the Real 3D Mandelbrot Fractal / just beautiful!

for us visual geeks: "... The original Mandelbrot is an amazing object that has captured the public's imagination for 30 years with its cascading patterns and hypnotically colourful detail. .... It's found by following a relatively simple math formula. But in the end, it's still only 2D and flat - there's no depth, shadows, perspective, or light sourcing. What we have... is a potential 3D version of the same fractal. ..."
