Beautiful, Damn Hard, Increasingly Useful. That's Fractals.

The Theory Of Chaos And Theory Of Fractals Are Separate, But Have Very Strong Intersections. That Is One Part Of Chaos Theory Is Geometrically Expressed By Fractal Shapes.

When The Weather Changes And Hurricanes Hit, Nobody Believes That The Laws Of Physics Have Changed. Similarly, I Don't Believe That When The Stock Market Goes Into Terrible Gyrations Its Rules Have Changed. It's The Same Stock Market With The Same Mechanisms And The Same People.

If You Look At Coastlines, If You Look At That Them From Far Away, From An Airplane, Well, You Don't See Details, You See A Certain Complication. When You Come Closer, The Complication Becomes More Local, But Again Continues. And Come Closer And Closer And Closer, The Coastline Becomes Longer And Longer And Longer Because It Has More Detail Entering In.

Think Not Of What You See, But What It Took To Produce What You See.

A Fractal Is A Way Of Seeing Infinity.
