Fourplay A juxtaposition of four related fractals, each of which has a certain “four-ness” about it. The fractal in front is a “Quaternion Julia Set,” and in back we see the “Mandelbrot Set” and the “Complex Subset Julia Set.” A Julia Set is a sort of Strange Attractor. A Mandlebrot Set is an encyclopedia or map of all possible Julia Sets. This map is a fractal, and it may be the most complex shape in mathematics.
