This is cool. I like watching and always like to know what's in that little hole?

Thanks Wallace for keeping this topic alive on GC :)

Thanks fellow Aussies sallyanne and oldmangrumpy for your comments although I'm not sure what sallyanne is talking about :)

I've accepted most people never comment on anything. Their 'views' are recorded but not their ideas. (which you could conclude are non-existent) :) You can pay Utube to 'promote' your videos but I'm about to turn 74 so 'growing your channel' is a joke. Eventually videos get removed due to no visits from the owner, so making videos is not really a long term activity.

I used to watch Andrew's videos. I like the big skies and massive canyons. He investigated native American sites which were mostly located on inaccessible cliffs tops. While Europeans spent centuries building castles to protect themselves from other Europeans (generalization), native Americans used the landscape itself to protect themselves from other tribes.

Andrew the desert drifter used to climb the shear cliff walls to explore and film yet was killed by a drunk driver 4 minutes from his home. That's the end of his channel but other people now do similar content. I now watch The Trek Planner' and
Jessies Drone Adventures.

I had a friend do a video of her fractals once but it was only a 10 second thing that kept on repeating. I never got to see inside the whole thing and it made me curious so I like the way you continue for more than 10 seconds and show what's inside

Cool fractal video. Yeah, I think it's going to be a hard task to make it big on YT with fractals. But, main thing you're doing what you like to do.

Talking about Australia and Videos entitled to bigger popularity, just watched Houseboat Horror (Umbrella Ent. Limited Slipcover Edition Blu-ray) and it rocked. :hehe

Hi there Nidhogg. I don't live in the cities like 50% of Australians - I live in the bush :) I think this roadtrip video of some young Aussies going thru the 'red centre' shows a genuine Australia.

Hi sallyanne. You asked a good question so here is what AI says.

Image

Most people start with 2d fractals using the X and Y axis, I use X , Y and Z axis making 3d fractals. They are 'hybrid' fractals combining multiple fractal types (including geometric solids). So I have a canvass of infinite size and depth but that doesn't make it automatically look cool. Like in music where some sounds just feel right, in fractals some images look more pleasing than others.

I keyframe into a 3d fractal with 70 frames between keyframes. My videos have glitches because you don't exactly know what these intermediate frames look like.
I learned to do keyframing from this video by Stephen Sink.
