Re: [spam][spam][spam] crazy

i was going to think a different mandelbrot thought but i did stumble on this one: i wonder if you could draw the mandelbrot set super-quickly by inferring a nonrecursive local definition of its patterns. these clearly exist locally, and likely it was an approach used for fast mandelbrot renderers in the 80s. i wonder if there is a global transform of its shape into something more shape-based and less imaginary-exponent based. i wonder how big a model you would need to predict it to a given accuracy. what if it were a small one?
