Best thing you will watch all day (or night)
Easily the best representation I've seen of this unseen but all pervasive fundamental rule of the physical world. "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,' - that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."

Spend a little time exploring the Mandelbrot set, and all the great diversity of things ceases to seem complicated or improbable.

Visual Guide to the Mandelbrot Set
Check out this site. I don't understand shit about the technical aspects, either, really. This site, tho, just shows a bit of the diversity of visual possibilities as you explore the set. Pretty amazing what can be derived from that simple formula. The Rev
