Fractal tattoos

By Murray Bourne, 28 Jan 2006

arm with mathematical tattoos, based on fractals.

How cool is this? Mathematical tattoos.

For the mathematics behind this, see fractals.

I might get one of these on my left nipple.

    I'm seeking a Tattoo Artist's, ((possible nightmare)) of a feat... A Fractal. If not is there any technology capable of rendering a Fractal Tattoo?

    Thank-you, from Onterrible, Canada.

    Hi Jo. I don't know of any technology that will produce the tattoo. But if you need one for just the fractal, this works nicely: http://www.fractalsciencekit.com/

HTML: You can use simple tags like <b>, <a href="...">, etc.

To enter math, you can can either:

  1. Use simple calculator-like input in the following format (surround your math in backticks, or qq on tablet or phone):
    `a^2 = sqrt(b^2 + c^2)`
    (See more on ASCIIMath syntax); or
  2. Use simple LaTeX in the following format. Surround your math with \( and \).
    \( \int g dx = \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}} \)
    (This is standard simple LaTeX.)

NOTE: You can mix both types of math entry in your comment.
