When you understand fractals, you understand that they are no more computer generated than is a photograph generated by a camera. Fractals exist through the repeatable but unexpected , unpredictable and inexplicable organisation of points on a peace of paper. The computer enables us to see a representation of how these points have behaved when connected to a formula. In the same way, the camera will show us how each light beam behaved when it tuched the identical grain of the film. Neither the computer nor the formula creates the fractal image. It is done by the process of iteration, of repeting the same process over and over with a very slight modification each time it is done. That same powerfull process is the key to meditation, to chanting of mantras and to the pure fractal images.

When I look at fishes in an aquarium, I think of "where do we think we are ?" the fishes in their tank can 't begin to imagine what a river or the sea or deep ocean is like. The tank is their ocean, and the appartment is their sky. All their life they turn around in their little space, sometimes a human God hand drops some food for them on the surface, and they probably "think" that this is the real as unique life and condition of a fish. (this is obviously an image as fishes probably don't think and know everything.) Then I think... why would we not be fishes in an aquarium (or at least how do we know we are not) of greater creatures than us who would be themselves "blood cells" of an even greater creature, and again and again to infinity like fractals show. If we were viruses what would we beleive ?
