Winds, Waves, ,and Cable Stays

This flame has a slightly more evocative title than I usually go for, because I could make it both rhyme and alliterate. It's probably just a near rhyme, but I'm not a poetry nerd, so I don't know or care if it is or not.

I'm not entirely sure if this flame is supposed to represent a specific structure, or even broad class of structures. I assume it is a structure, since it has cable stays. If it is, it's a poorly lit, only dimly visible object. I kind of like it that way. Knowing exactly what it was would take some of the fun out of it.

Iris

As in the flower, not the part of the eye. I'm not certain this piece actually looks anything like an iris, but it has a similar color scheme to some of the ones that grow in my backyard. Of course, those irises are some weird cultivar with lots and lots of ruffles, so my idea of what an iris looks like and your idea of whan an iris looks like might not mesh.

Amber Inset

This flame may look familiar; that's because it's a zoomed in chunk of this flame that I posted way back when. I think the inset version of the piece eliminates some of the worst compositional errors and least interesting parts of the flame. I'm informed that this flame is 'gelatinous' but I'm not sure I see it. I was thinking it looked like...you know...amber. That might just be the colors, though.

Khaki Coral

This piece has a little bit of blur effect on it, but I'm not sure I like the way I turned out. It didn't work without the blur--the lines were too thin and hard. But I couldn't figure out how to make it blur evenly across the whole piece. I suspect that now I could make it work, but this piece is from about two years ago. As much as I talk about going back and fixing old pieces, I'd rather spend the time making something new. The creative energy required is the same, and it seems to be in finite supply.

Snakey Swirly Thing

I think this is probably one of the most descriptive titles I've given to a flame (I'm literally describing the flame in the title, right?), even if it's one of the least articulate. I suppose something like 'Serpentine Vortices' would have sounded cooler, but I feel like this flame is pretty enough that it should have an unpretentious name. I like the irony.

Turbo Snail

While at first glance the turbo snail appears to be your typical paradoxical creature, he has a secret. He doesn't travel any faster than your average snail, he just fails his eyes a lot so it looks like he's moving faster. Please don't tell anyone. He's terribly embarassed about it.

I really like the orange, green, and blue sections of the color palette in this piece, particularly the gradations you can see at the upper left. They're nice, middle of the range colors, but they're still attractive. I need to use colors like that more often.

Focal Waves (reweight, brighter)

I fiddled with this piece a lot. There were several elements to the original flame that I found really interesting, but I couldn't bring them into balance and emphasize them the way I wanted to. I think I had three or four render cycles on this one before I was at least mostly satisfied. I think the result qualifies as 'pretty cool.' My favorite part is the scaly looking patterns at the bottom just to the right of the center. They looked kind of like snakeskin to me.

Bird and Sharks

I'm not certain which part is the bird and which part is the sharks. Obviously they're all thrashing around a bit, kicking up foam and spray and other such things. Pretty sure there are some toothy bits in there, though. I wouldn't want to be the bird.

I really like the colors in this flame, especially where they start getting denser in the smaller repeats. It's an understated palette, but I think it works for this piece, making some sections shiny and some dull.

Time Lapse Candle

Take a candle. Put it in a slight breeze. Point a camera at it for a few minutes. I figure this is what it would look like, if you could avoid having the picture come out hideously overexposed. That bit probably wouldn't be very easy. Not being a photographer I don't know how technically challenging it would actually be.

This piece is one that stayed up as my desktop background for longer than most; I found it very soothing to look at. Probably because there aren't any jaggedy bits. The colors aren't eye searing either (I've gotten better at avoiding eye-searing colors, really), which some of my pieces from the same time period are, unfortunately.

Edge of the World

Growing up understanding that the world is a sphere (mostly) spinning around the sun, I've always felt that the 'Flat Earth' theory was a bit preposterous, especially for those sailors who were most superstitious. Couldn't they see the curvature of the earth from the top of their masts? Why would the sails of a ship show up first if the earth was flat? Nonetheless, the imagery of an ocean of water cascading over the greatest waterfall in the world is quite powerful. This flame is my take on that. It's not blue because...well, I get tired of doing things in blue. Maybe it's lit from below by an otherwordly incandescence. Maybe it's sunset. Or perhaps, that close to the precipice, light becomes twisted and strange. Take your pick.

Path

I imagine this piece as a trail through a rocky canyon, walls arching up overhead both sides, sunlight shining patchily on the walls. Sure, it takes a little effort, but the really fun interpretations usually do.

This flame has some very confusing fractal elements to it. I'm fairly certain that the segments at the bottom are repeats of the segment at the top, but both parts contain repeats of themselves aas well. The easiest identifying mark on the repeats is that row of four dots that shows up at the tip of the top segment spines. You can follow that all the way down the bottom chain until the resolution blurs out in the large images.

Rhinoceros Shellfish

Another piece with a 'shell' name. In this case I find it entirely appropriate, though. The swriling patterns really looked like something I'd see on a shell. The little pointy bit over on the top left inspired the 'Rhinoceros" bit. It's rather amusing to picture a seashell stampeding and trying to gore people with its horn.

While I can't say for certain what color palette I used on this piece, the style of color palette is one I use frequently. Shades of grey, and one or two brighter colors mixed in. The nice thing about this style of color palette is the ease with which I can change the color. Because most of the palette is grey, I can just shift the hue and not worry about creating color combinations that really clash. So if I wanted to, this piece could be purple, or blue, or green...

Abstract 7-18-08

A lot of the flames that I label with 'Abstract' are pieces that aren't good enough to have inspired a title by the time I finish with them, but at the same time are too interesting for me to simply discard. Often they're pieces that I've spent a considerable amount of time on, as well. This is one of those pieces. I couldn't think of a name for it, but I was tired of working on it. And I didn't want to throw it away. So...'Abstract.' Looking at it today, I'd probably name it something moderately descriptive, like 'Hooked Fan.' But I'm morally opposed to changing the name of a piece, so it remains and 'Abstract.'

Blocks and Nebula

Do the same sorts of accidental geometric patterns that show up in Earth's clouds appear in nebular dust clouds floating in space? It's amusing to think that they do, but I suspect the answer is no. Those fascinating patterns in our atmosphere are usually the result of winds, and the only winds in space are solar. They might push out a bubble of clear space around a star, but they wouldn't leave ripples and wakes.

Now that I think about it, this piece is really done in the same style as 'Orthogonal Cloudscape.' I believe this is a case of accidental style-convergence. 'Blocks and Nebula' came first, and I don't recall referencing back to it when I was making 'Cloudscape'. Of course, accidental duplication is easy to achieve with the 'popcorn' variation, which some of you may remember is what makes those offset square patterns. This piece uses the popcorn variation a little less heavily, so it has a slightly softer look to it.

Silicon Autotroph

If I didn't like using fancy science-type words so much this flame would probably be titled something like 'Glass Fern' or 'Stone Bush.' But I do, so it's titled 'Silicon Autotroph.' A slightly more generic term, to be sure, but also a less limiting one. Make of it what you will.

This piece is fairly straightforward, technically. It's got quite a few repeats involved, but most of them are the standard 'linear' type. They don't have any distortion except stretching and skewing. That's probably why this flame calls to mind a plant of some sort. It's closer to a 'pure' fractal, and plants are very fractal things.

Phoenix Molt

I've often considered that I stick the word 'Phoenix' into too many titles, especially considering that the original mythology claims there was only one in existence at a time. But I don't really regret the slight overuse; the idea of taking a peacock or other ornamental fowl and then lighting it on fire is just too wonderful.

Mythical incendiary avian origins aside, this flame has some rather interesting things going on. That hard yellow edge is a fairly standard fractal boundary, but then it has those long wispy tails swooping off of it. I quite liked the effect. Someday I might see if I could do something different with the colors, but for now I like the impression they create of the flame slowly burning away.

Flocking Wisps

This flame reminds me a little of a ball bait fish, if bait fish were amorphous and semi-transparent. Presumably their predator is equally amorphous. It's possible that the little wisps are more like some sort of pirahna, but I like the idea of them swirling around in a desperate effort not to be eaten better.

Plasma Bolt

I don't have very much to say about this flame. It rather speaks for itself. Granted, it talks in comic-book sound effects, like "THOOM" and "FWOOSH" and possibly "ZZZAP!" I think that's all it really needs to say.

I really had a hard time waiting until now to post this flame, because it's one of my very favorites. Just about every time I've looked at my folder of flames that I have rendered to post here I've thought "Ooh, I should post this one! It's really cool!" and then I've made myself put it off because that kind of thinking results in all of the fun flames getting posted in the first two weeks of a render cycle, followed by a couple weeks of less interesting stuff. But since I've only got a week and a half worth of flames left before I need to do a new batch, and there are at least two other good ones that I haven't posted yet...here you go.

Rainbow Sherbet

I may or may not have been craving ice cream when I made this fractal. I confess to being slightly baffled by this flame; I didn't think rainbow sherbet came in a soft-serve variety.

Something has been bothering me as I've been writing all these entries. There's no specific verb for making a fractal flame. If it was a pencil sketch, I could say that I drew it. If it was a blob of clay, I could say I sculpted it. But to my knowledge there's no word for the action of creating a fractal flame. I suppose I could coin one, but it would probably turn out to be ridiculous. What word would you use?

Star Compactor

I'll admit that the title for this flame isn't very good without more explanation than should be necessary. But I really like to think of this flame as depicting stellar debris being swirled around and sucked into a black hole (or other gravity well, if you're feeling picky).

Looking back at the paramaters of this flame, I'm a little surprised that there are only three elements to it. Usually dense textures like those in this flame require more repeats to achieve. It does explain the fairly uniform color scheme, though. It's easier to make large portions of a flame the same color or make stripes and gradients when there are less repeats.

Broken Watch

This piece said 'Sproing!' to me. One of those cartoon-sound-effect sproing noises, too. Anway, I was thinking of un-winding watch springs and little gears flinging themselves out of position when I named this flame.

'Broken Watch' has a rather interesting pattern in it that can't really be seen in the preview version. But if you look at one of the big ones, you'll see that the circular striations have repeats of themselves at the cardinal points. I'm not certain if that's a true fractal effect, or if it's an artifact of rendering lots and lots of circular lines like that. If you've ever messed around with the circle tool in paint you'll know that it's awfully hard to represent a circle with squares. These phantom-repeats show up in most of the flames using that same circular-striations technique.

Surfing

I'm not too certain about the title on this one. Maybe it's an indoor wave simulator, and it's being lit with brightly colored spotlights for some sort of crazy party? Literal interpretations aside, the shape of this flame conveyed such a feeling of fluid motion to me that 'Surfing' was the only name that seemed to fit.

Multi-Socket Interface Port

I was going to post this one yesterday, because I hadn't done anything greenish or reddish in a while. But then I realized that it would look absolutely terrible with the picture on the right and the text on the left. So instead of doing the reasonable thing and using the image-on-the-left entry template a day early, I decided to wait a day. I like routines, I guess.

I like the appearance of depth and dimensionality in this flame. The negative space in the center really enhances the feeling that it's an object, not a texture. The clean lines and lack of stray elements keep the eye focused on trying to interpret the shape, which is really hard to do with all the fractal repeats trying to bounce your gaze all over the place. The notches around the negative space also try to steal attention. The color around them is a hair more vibrant than it is elsewhere in the piece.

Anemones (second view)

I'm quite fond of the 'tentacle' effect in this flame, but it's unfortunately linked rather closely to the other things that make this flame interesting. Kind of hard to transfer without it being just a copy of the original with a few tweaks. The 'second view' business in the title refers to the fact that this was the second render of this flame I did. The first one had the canvas centered a little further towards the base of the image, and the colors in that segment looked unfortunately like blood in the water. So instead we have this nice, mostly-pastel version with an unwieldy title. Pay no attention to the red over on the left. It's um...algae. Yeah. Algae. Let's go with that.

Stepping stones through grass

The title may be longwinded, but I still like it. This flame has several things going on at once: There's that negative-space circle that gets repeated, seven or so rotations of it (look at the petal things the lower left and count), and a spiral variation, probably on its own triangle. The spiral variation is the piece you see intruding onto the negative-circle. The colors on this piece add nicely to the complexity, shading from a sort of olive green to an orange. They're a bit understated, but I think that works for this one.

Stellar Reef

This is a recolor that I spent maybe two minutes on. I still like it better than the original color scheme, which was pretty much the same one I used in 'Chinese Cloud' with a little bit of purple thrown in. It wasn't very attractive. I love the textures in this flame, and the new colors enhance them a lot. This is just about the only flame where I've achieved that billowy, fabric-like effect that you see over on the right. I should really see if I can duplicate that in an interesting way. All too often a technique that's interesting in one flame is ugly in another, or just doesn't work without so many elements identical to the original flame that it might as well be the same one.

Lemon Acrophobia

Alternate title: Gratuitous overuse of spiral shapes. I figure this is what happens when someone who's afraid of heights (i.e. an acrophobe) stands a couple stories over a big bin of lemons. The worlds starts spinning, tunnel vision...all that sort of stuff. I'm afraid I don't really have anything deep and meaningful to say about this flame. It's just not a deep and meaningful sort of image. So I hope you enjoy looking at a pretty picture.

Streetlamp in disguise

Because I render the flames for the next month or so of blog posts in advance, I have a tendency to do a bunch of good ones in a row, then some mediocre ones as I run out of good ones to post. This is the start of a new render cycle, so either there will be a couple really good weeks, or I'll remember to post the bad ones first and the next couple weeks will be really boring. We'll see.

Today's flame is just a little further towards the abstract end of the spectrum. While I suppose it does look rather like an illumination source of some kind, the mind doesn't go straight to 'streetlamp.' I guess that's why it's in disguise. Or maybe those are some very unusual moths fluttering around it. I like the various arcs and swirls in this piece a bunch, and I'm pretty sure the color scheme hasn't been used in any other pieces. I tend to get a bit jaded with some color schemes, even if they're really, really good, just because I've looked at them so often.

Helix

I love the way this flame goes in so many different directions at once. It ends up with a sort of balance, where it's not moving noticeably in any one direction, but it still has a sense of motion to it. The colors are a little muddy, but the overall palette is good. I can't really say that it reminds me of any sort of real life object...maybe a really messed up backbone. But this is mostly a pure abstract piece.

Amber

This piece is slightly more abstract than usual, in some ways. It makes use of the hyperbolic variation, which kind of looks like a diamond with the points stretched out and the sides left in the same place. (Or a set of four hyperbolic arcs arranged around a central point, which is what it really is) Because it has a tendency to stretch the flame off screen, I typically only use it for full canvas pieces like this one.

Boiling planet

Uh oh...looks like somebody drifted a little close to their primary sun. Bye bye, atmosphere! Aside from the astronomy analogy (which I enjoy far, far too much), this flame is the wrong shape. Or at least, for this canvas. It really ought to be centered (mostly) on a square canvas fo the best effect.

Cataclysm

Tsunami always come in neon colors, right? Right? Well, even if they don't, I like the neon in this one. It sort of freezes the sense of motion, and makes it look like it's not supposed to be moving. Which is good, because it's not. I know I'm doing a terrible job explaining it; Art and words don't live in the same parts of my brain. Nonetheless, I hope you enjoy it.

Purple Peacocks (inset)

Occasionally I'll do multiple camera views of the same fractal. This was the second view of this piece, and it was zoomed in from the original, hence the (inset) label. Like yesterday's piece, 'Purple Peacocks' gives the impression of having a light shining on part of the image. I always enjoy that effect when I can produce it; it's not one I've figured out the trick to yet.

Spaceflow

'Spaceflow' was a runner up for both runs of 8"x10" prints (six in the first, four in the second), but it just didn't make the cut. I really, really wanted to get it printed, but I didn't think it would appeal to a wide enough range of people. I hope I get a chance to get it printed off someday, but unless I get a request for it specifically, it's probably not going to happen. (Hint, hint.)

Today we have another of the 'Something' series. (Here is the first one I posted) I quite like this one, for reasons I find myself unable to articulate. Maybe because it looks kind of tufty, and kind of like a fruit, and kind of like a seed, or maybe a flame, etc. etc...

Tree of Gold

I really wasn't that happy with certain aspects of today's flame, 'Tree of Gold.' I love the way the color scheme turned out, and the twisty 'branches' were really close to what I had envisioned when I started on this one. But the messy stuff between them bothers me a bit. I'll have to figure out a way to clean that up before I do more fractals this way.

Abstract 2, 7-27-07

Most of the fractal flames I do look better on black than they do on white. I've never been able to figure out exactly why. I suspect it has something to do with the color palettes I pick. Whatever the reason, this flame looks quite a bit better on white than it does on black. I couldn't think of a name for this one, so it just got the 'Abstract' designation and a date. The second time in one day, apparently. I must not have been feeling very creative.

Spectrum Flow

This flame reminds me quite a bit of some of the video of lava flows I've seen on TV, with that kind of dip where the surface slides almost out of sight in a fold and then flows up again (Essentially I'm thinking of the stereotypical stock footage that the National Geographic channel always uses whenever they have a shred of an excuse). Just...more colorful. The shiny-bumpy texture and the slide through most of the rainbow are a fun combination. I tried this flame with a blander color palette, but it really needs the range of colors to shine.

Mothwings

Today's art, 'Mothwings,' is really something of a transitional piece for me. It's from June of 2005, and it's really after this point that I tried making fractal flames that looked like objects or had a theme to them. Trying to make fractals that looked like something is what motivated me to learn to use the software better, something I'm still working on even now. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. The reasoning behind the title is self-evident, I think.

Dragon Wing

'Dragon Wing' is today's flame. I really like the varying textures that give the fractal its shape. The 'wing bones' sticking out the left side were a lot of fun to fiddle with, too, and are what really inspired the name.

Tattered Canvas

'Tattered Canvas' is the title of today's flame.  Whether or not the canvas in question is attached to a sailing ship or not I leave up to you.  I suspect there's at least a mast hiding somewhere in there.

Yellowed Breakers

Each day on this blog I will be posting a new piece of fractal flame artwork. Some of these works will be recent; some of them may be years old. All of them will be available for download. Today's offering is titled 'Yellowed Breakers.' The spiraling patterns made me think of the movement of ocean waves as they hit a rocky shore.
