Your Brain on Fractals

This image was computer generated by recursion of the simple complex formula Z = Z*Z + C.
Constant 'C' taken as successive pts on the cardiod defined by the Mandelbrot 'snowman'.
Iteration depth about 40.
Instead of convergence test plotting, ALL trajectory points are plotted.
Colors are defined by relative gradient between trajectory points.
This simple change in the standard way of viewing the Mandelbrot reveals
the TRUE BRAIN STRUCTURE lurking within the great Mysterium.
