A couple of PCs ago I remember finally having a gpu strong enough to look at a 3D fractal called the Mandelbox. It chugged a bit but it was fun peering into this complex structure.
Today I found I can go back there, in a little exploratory pod, and fly through it in realtime, in VR. It's *bonkers*. And absolutely beautiful.
We've come a long, long way from waiting for the ST to crank out a Mandelbrot set zoom frame, that's for damn sure. ๐
