Arthur C. Clarke presents this unusual documentary on the mathematical discovery of the Mandelbrot Set (M-Set) in the visually spectacular world of fractal geometry. This show relates the science of the M-Set to nature in a way that seems to identify the hand of God in the design of the universe itself. Dr. Mandelbrot in 1980 discovered the infinitely complex geometrical shape called the Mandelbrot Set using a very simple equation with computers and graphics.

A young Austrian survives the crash of a commercial airliner. Six years later, she's a clerk, a mother, and happy. Then she dies in a car accident. Over the next year, her daughter goes through various medical blood tests, her husband is having an affair with her best friend, her sister trades sex for shelter, her brother is tiptoeing around a friendship with an emotionally-locked clerk whose mother is lonely, and an unpopular high-school student has bad skin. The daughter has her eye on a certain boy--the very one who was driving the car in the fatal crash. In happenstance are there patterns? In life is there meaning?

A metaphysical thriller for the digital generation.

A silent protagonist explores the entheogen Dimethyltryptamine in this animated, allegoric depiction of the mechanisms society has to damage and abstract the self.

Sela chain-smokes. She wears headphones. They protect her from the outside world. Everyone she passes appear locked in their own worlds. She wonders if they even know. She doesn't mind that she goes unnoticed, because she has a secret.

In a marine setting, Anémona and Pisces live a capicua experience: they are at the same time the woman who looks, the woman who is looked at, and the very act of looking. Between fractal scenes and images multiplied in reference to Man Ray, Anémona assumes the will to, through the state of trance, always be a foreigner within herself, while Pisces goes in search of an alien vision, to assume herself as the self and otherness to understand the world. Misméntica instaura is a surrealist film essay that metaforiza the encounter of a poet with herself, of the sentient woman who meets the woman who writes, in a reference to Rimbaud's "I is another"; to the act of attending the birth of one's own thought and making a manifesto of surrender to language.

An introverted teen is forced to defend herself when her bullies threaten to spill the beans about her crush on the math teacher mr govan.

The idea at the base of the project is to let cohabit two apparently opposite worlds: the old, orally handed sardinian chants with an unstructured serial aesthetic very close to the mysticism of the Tibetan mandalas and the digital fractal decomposition of the space. The research tents to re create a world of abstract images that nevertheless shelter the elements of recognizability of the singers. They are portrayed almost like glass icons of an Escher like cathedral window, or through a mirror-like pop lens. The result is a moment of absolute suspension and classic-like estrangement. The digital attitude is, yes, used to transform the shape and the body of the singers but with an extreme cure in the attempt of translating and respecting that ancient ancestral feeling that this singing recalls.

A 30-minute computer-generated fractal animation to trance music. This animation short was included on the accompanying DVD to the book, Arthur C. Clarke's Colours Of Infinity (1995. Songs include "The Answer" and "Morfioso" by The Infinity Project and "The Pendulum" by Total Eclipse.

A man encounters a long forgotten smell and is carried away by the memories this brings flooding back. The smell arouses in him an overwhelming sense of the plurality of his being, leading him back into the mysterious depths of his past, pushing back the limits of his inner world.

In fact, fractals are nothing new. As colourful illustrations they have been appearing in media for many years. But there is more behind this. Fractals provide the mathematical tool set to describe complex structures including coastlines, clouds, mountains, plants, vascular systems, growth processes, stock-exchange prices or the distribution of matter in outer space. From there it is just a little step to the assumption, that the main principles of fractals must be fixed deep in the world's architecture. The easiest way towards understanding them is to start experimenting oneself. For this reason the Koch-Curve was modified and translated into a computer program, to form a tool to search for the grown, living, alien shape. The "Cascade and its Dust" is a project of the graphic artist Stefan Pautze. There are no poetic concepts behind the name. "Dust" is the mathematical description for a set of non-connected points. The cascade is a synonym for the principle of recursion, the basic technique behind the created computer program.

This film is a culmination of Robert Kauffmann's work in the disciplines of animation, printmaking, mathematics, and computer programming. It is a psychedelic melange of animated Escheresque tilings and fractal figures - both animal and vegetable - which are blended together seamlessly. If any message may be derived from this film, it is that 'chemicals are unnecessary.

A stunning trip into the visions of kaleidoscope, where geometrical form converges to create fractal illusions.
