Animated Mandelbrot

I’ve always had a fascination with fractals, so to continue gaining experience with Objective-C on the Mac platform, I decided to try my hand. When finished, this application will allow the user to specify the starting and ending points on the graph and then generate a movie which will smoothly zoom to the desired coordinates.

Start Date:	December 2008
Project Status:	95% complete – Further work indefinitely suspended. What’s left as of 3/19/09: - Zoom smoothing (need a math major)

Super Cell

Start Date:	November 2008
Project Status:	Pending rewrite based on knowledge learned from the Animated Mandelbrot project.
Link:	To be announced
