alendar features the organic, vibrant computer-generated designs of Alice Kelley, who said, "Fractals are an intuitive glimpse into the infinite order that composes the natural world, as well as proof that math is beautiful."
Fractals are visual depictions of mathematical equations--the same equations, in fact, that describe natural phenomena such as coastlines, plant shapes, and weather patterns. A computer program assigns a color to each point in the image based on the answer to a chosen equation, which then results in abstract fractal shapes. Artist Alice Kelley manipulated dozens of variable to create the fascinating organic designs featured in this twelve-month calendar. Each is accompanied by a quotation by prominent mathematicians and scientists.
