Fractal Editor

Fractal Editor allows the creation of beautiful fractals using Iterated Function Systems.

Begin by placing a few rectangles on the canvas, resizing, moving, rotating or shearing the rectangles, and then apply iterated transformations successively to create the fractal. The Fractal Editor can be used to amuse and entertain by creating interesting and beautiful images, and it can be used as an educational tool for studying iterated function systems and linear algebra.

Fractal Editor was developed by Michael Dejori (Free University of Bolzano, Italy, and an exchange student at F&M, fall, 2008) under the supervision of Prof. J. M. Anderson. It is based on IFS Drawer, developed by Rob Burkhead (F&M 09) under the supervision of Prof. A. K. Crannell and Prof. Anderson.
