Persistent Aura

I finally succeeded in making the mandelbox fractal! I did using the program Mandelbulb3D. Still having problems with the Ultra Fractal version. The colouring and lighting are quite different from UF. This gives the images a bit of another character to them. Here a render from the entire box (scale-2) I'm off to explore this amazing infinite geometrical object. I'll be back with more!

Here's an image of one of my first tries at creating the relativly new Mandelbox fractal. My formula is still wrong and it doesn't look anything like it but it's still an interesting fractal. this what the shapes are supposed to look like.

Thought I'd post this as well. My first animation ever. Track is also by me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luoghszGebs

It looks like you are just exporting your images rather then rendering them with the renderer in UF. This is why the detail of those small pieces looks so bad. If you render it, the quality will be way better. And you can do huge resolutions. Keep on trying. Making fractals needs a lot of practice and patience. But if you perservere you will become a true master. Not that I'm a pro, not by a long shot check out some of my fractals if you want. http://www.psynews.org/forums/index.php?/topic/59252-persistent-aura-fractal-art/ EDIT: Oh I'm sorry it seems you are using ChaosPro. Never used the program so I don't know if it's possible to make better renders with that. The outlook of the program does resemble ultra fractal a lot in those tiny pictures.

And here's a few old 2D mandelbrot fractals made with Ultra Fractal as well. Sorry for the small resolution. If you want one of these in a bigger resolution send me a message. I have hundreds of these images. If you want to see some more of them check the UF5 galleries on my myspace. http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewAlbums&friendID=433405752

Next up a nice 3D Juliabulb made in Ultra Fractal Broccoli feelings (this one took me 20 hours to render on my crappy pc) download 2000x2000 version on deviant art http://persistentaura.deviantart.com/art/Moss-170051358?q=gallery%3APersistentAura%2F24491289&qo=2

This is another type of '3D' Julian I made when checking out Tsukino Hikari's 'Exploring Apophysis 3D' Tutorial. I call these types of fractals Julian Isles.

Hi all! I would just like to share some of my fractal art with you people. So from now on I will be posting some new fractal here regularly. I've been working with a lot of different programs like Ultra Fractal, Apophysis, Terragen, Mandelbulber,... so you will also see different types of fractals ranging from IFS to 3D mandelbulbs and even Lindenmayer systems. Check out my deviantart gallery! Here's an image of a Grand Julian in perspective made with Apophysis 7x

Finally got the full res image uploaded. You can find it here: http://persistentaura.deviantart.com/art/Apo3D-100210-801-170256249 Download the original at 1600x1200 pixels.

the treasure3d is not mine unfortunately. It's made by Zueuk, a great fractal artist on deviantart, you should check more of his gallery. Very good stuff. Much better than mine to be honest The image is uploading but going slow but it will probably be ready before I go to bed. A little more off topic: I'm working on something new as well. Mandelbox fractals. But my formula to create them still has a glitch so I don't have any examples yet. But here are some examples (not by me) of what they look like http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgdN5yO39UI

might not be able to upload it tonight. I only have bursts of about 10-30seconds of internet connection and then it's down for 1-5 minutes every time. Been having this for two days now. Hope it'll get better tommorrow But I'll keep on trying until I go to bed in an hour or two.

Yes I made that fractal Good to know you like it. I don't think I have the full res version uploaded somewhere but I'll upload it to my deviantart gallery as soon as my internet connection lets me Persistent Aura Deviant Art Gallery

Me neither It's gonna be a nice party I'm sure. I will be playing all my most wicked nitzhogoa tunes. Machine elve will definetely be in there and the driftwood - freeloader remix. Be prepared

And another one from Nitz-ho-Goa! http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=af0jBP8qQeU&feature=related fyi: get the new Sita Records VA-Protozoa here: http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/sia/sia1cd002.html http://www.beatspace.com/dettagli/dettaglio.asp?id=5610

Since I forgot to mention the title of the track in the thread title, I'll just use this topic to promote a few more tracks. Here's a track you can find on VA - Nitz-ho-Goa (Sita Records). One of my favourite track I made in 2009. Not my best one production wise but I just love the melodies http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YFwDajYIKI Enjoy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53vmnwcFkJU Unreleased track. Sound could be a little better. The melody starting at 0:52 gives me a very nostalgic feeling for some reason. Allways makes me think about when I was a just a little kid. tell me what you think about it.

whoops indeed I meant Beverly Hills Cop not Police Acadamy LOL

oops double post

Ha great idea that might work indeed. That's very kind of you as well. It's a lot of melodies though (15) so I will just try it on my brothers pc first. He's a minimal producer so he also has production software on his pc. thanks again!

That's as good as I got it to sound after trying to fix it. It was even worse in the beginning I won't give up yet though. I just had another idea which might work. The preset used was a downloaded one. I didn't change much about it so if I download it again it might sound like the old one again. I did save the preset as used in the original version before it got bad but even when I load that one it sounds like the bad one so I'm not sure it'll work.

Indeed it's incedibly buggy I use it less and less these days because of it. I've had lots of synths get screwed up like that with albino. I was usually able to fix them or change so it still sounded good but this synth is just the most important one of the whole track. here's a link to the bad version http://www.sendspace.com/file/680tmb

Thanks for the comments arronax The broken melody was made with a weird arpeggiated synth from albino 3. For some reason when I reopened the project one day to make some adjustments the melody suddenly sounded totally different. All the subtle accents on the notes which were just right now seem to be totally random and it doesn't sound nearly as good. I've tried anything I can think of to fix it (also reinstalling the vst) but nothing seems to work it always sounds the same. I could just change the synth for another but that's just as bad as using the broken one. It was the special sound of that made it sound so good. I shall upload the version with the wrong sounding synth soon so you can hear what I mean. I just feel like the whole track loses it's magic because of it. I'll post it soon

Although I would want to rip my ears of when hearing such a remix; I still think every artist has the freedom to do what ever the hell they want. Even if you don't like it. Except for stealing tunes offcourse (remixing is NOT stealing imo as long as you give credit to the original composer) If you don't like it, don't listen to it. If no one listens to it, it won't be made. If people still listen to it even if it's crap, it just means they're stupid. I don't get the people who try to protect goa/psy with their lives from all bad influences and impurities. Like nobody has the right to listen to good music but themselves. There are still a lot of great artist out there not doing it for the money. Since those are usually the best ones why bother crap is being made. I still have what I need and do not support the crap in any way. Someone said they were worried to start hearing country music in psytrance. I for one would love that as long as it is done decently (which would be very hard). Experimentation and creativity are the keys for musical development so why the hell not? Genres are just small confined boxes put there by others to define an artists style. They are in no way fixed and do not have to be followed like rules so we won't corrupt the 'genre'. I don't care about the genre of the music I make. I just make what I like, whatever it is. I also think a lot of bad remixes can be blamed on some (bad)artist having a bad sense of humour. Because they think people will find it funny. This just shows the artist is not very bright and probably not very good in the first place. I like to remix tracks myself as well. Even popular ones as long as they are good tracks in the first place (what's the point in remixing something when nobody will recognize the track) I like remixing old popular 90s dance/trance tracks because that was the music I grew up with and what I liked back then. It's the music that shaped my musical knowledge and feelings as they are today so why not pay tribute to it with a remix. Axel F by Harold Faltemayer (police academy theme) as an example was one of my favourite tracks when I was 6 years old. I made a psy remix of that. That track means so incredibly much to me but I can see some people would find a psy remix of that track incredibly lame. My point is you don't even know why artists make bad remixes in the first place. Instead of implying all of them do it just to make money. Oh yeah, whenever a tune like that get's dropped during a set I know it's bad. Just subtly show the DJ you are displeased. I usually just entirely stop dancing and give them a displeased look until they put on something good again. (which may be never) Anyways we're just discussing tastes here Life goes on! greets!

Yes rotwang I made it myself using apophysis. Here's a link to the fullsize version on deviantart (*waits five minutes for page to load) http://persistentaura.deviantart.com/art/Efteling-157010706
