Abstract

Many people appreciate the aesthetics of fractal images, but few are inclined to engage in the mathematics needed to create them. Finding a perceptual basis for interacting with parametric images like fractals could make the parameter space more accessible, which is an important step towards democratizing this creative activity. This paper discusses an experiment to gather perceptions of fractal images and compare them with computational analyses.
