My boyfriend Ali is 5’10” with friendly blue eyes, a dimpled smile and a fit, muscular body. He’s someone you’d expect to see with a really hot, thin woman…not an overweight girl like me. We’ve been dating for 18 months, and, wherever we go - whether we’re walking hand-in-hand through the mall, airport or down the street in his hometown (Glasgow, Scotland) or mine (San Jose, Calif. …Guess who is featured on Yahoo :)
Reblogging just in case you missed it! Of course I went into this knowing that people would still post some really dumb comments without even reading the whole story. Maybe some people just don’t grow out of the whole reading “books with only pictures” phase. Hehe! ;] So please feel free to share, and post your love and support! <3
Tom Beddard (aka subblue) has been responsible for some of the most fascinating work being done with fractals. His totally mesmerizing video of fractal shapes morphing into one another was one of the first things I posted on this blog.
In his series Fabergé Fractals he has created digitally generated objects with designs as intricate as the eggs they’re named after.
Beddard on his work:
The 3D fractals are generated by iterative formulas whereby the output of one iteration forms the input for the next. The formulas effectively fold, scale, rotate or flip space. They are truly fractal in the fact that more and more detail can be revealed the closer to the surface you travel.
The fascinating aspect is where combinations of parameters can combine to create structural “resonances” of extraordinary detail and beauty—sometimes naturally organic and other times perfectly geometric. But then like a chaotic system it can completely disappear with the smallest perturbation.
