Pfft....

Blog... blogging... bloggy blog blog... whatever

Bizarre word isn't it... does anyone know if its an abbreviation or what...?

I find myself feeling like i "should" write one regularly, but i wonder what inane ramblings would be suitable... or interesting... and i do often wonder if people even read them... but please do forgive my apparent cynism, i think it's hereditary...

Anyway, so i could rant and rave all day... i'm not entirely sure but maybe thats the point of "blogging"... either way i've always thought it to be shamelessly self-indulgent but i think i am being far too cynical again so i am going to give in and give SG a good blogging every now and then, because i think that it is rare to find so many interesting people all in one place and i plan to talk to you... yes YOU...

Well if you're interested...

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

I'm supposed to be catching a flight to New York next Monday, which was all fun and games until Iceland decided to explode and drop the EU into total fucking air-borne chaos... so now as far as i know our trip is still on but it seems threatened more every day and i don't know whats going on, with typical media based scare mongering and actual truth flying around like jedi-related insults at a SciFiCon...

However, on a more positive note the band i am currently in "Faith In Hours" (shameless plug) recently won a local "battle of the bands"-type affair, winning the crowd vote AND the judge vote for the first time in the history of the event... bazinga...

We are also organising a charity fundraising gig for Cancer Research UK at the end of May which i am hoping will go swimmingly because i'm the overall director so if it goes tits up then i am going to look a prat haha!



NOW... i want to talk about something I find fascinating (if a little complex) so if your interested...

SPOILERS! (Click to view)


The Mandelbrot Set...



In short, it is a "fractal". Skipping out the applied mathematics (which baffle me) a fractal is an object or quantity that recurs completely or partially within itself, like so;



The reason it fascinates me is because the equation to create the fractal "z_(n+1)=z_n^2+C " is the beginnings of finding pattern in the chaos, part of the basis of what we know today as "Chaos Theory" and blah blah blah blah blah...



It is not the maths that i find intriguing but rather the aesthetics of the picture itself, which i think speaks volumes about our life on this planet and the deeper spirituality.

The one creates the many and the many creates the one, we exist because of those who do not, its almost an applied mathematics version of the Yin-Yang...

It has always struck me as a step on the path to the unification of science and spirituality, using one to explain the other, and i have always maintained that there is a little bit of both in everything.



Rant over, thanks for reading

lol then maybe you can explain it to me, because z_(n+1)=z_n^2+C means nothing to my maths-tarded brain
