fractal cosMos<br />
the art <strong>of</strong> alice kelley<br />
fractals are the visual depictions <strong>of</strong> mathematical<br />
equations – the same equations, in fact, that describe<br />
natural phenomena such as coastlines, plant shapes<br />
and weather patterns. a computer program assigns a<br />
color to each point in the image based on the answers<br />
to a chosen equation, which then results in abstract<br />
fractal shapes. dozens <strong>of</strong> variables are manipulated<br />
in order to create these fascinating images.<br />
the Fractal Cosmos wall calendar features the<br />
organic designs <strong>of</strong> alice kelley, who says, “fractals<br />
are an intuitive glimpse into the infinite order that<br />
composes the natural world, as well as being pro<strong>of</strong><br />
that math is beautiful.”<br />

The tantalizing and compelling pursuit<br />
<strong>of</strong> mathematical problems <strong>of</strong>fers mental<br />
absorption, peace <strong>of</strong> mind amid endless<br />
challenges, repose in activity, battle<br />
without conflict, refuge from the goading<br />
urgency <strong>of</strong> contingent happenings, and<br />
the sort <strong>of</strong> beauty changeless mountains<br />
present to senses tried by the present-day<br />
kaleidoscope <strong>of</strong> events. — Morris Kline<br />
