This print was created for the GMU Math 401: Mathematics Through 3D Printing class.
Some background:
The design shown is a 3 dimensional render of a Julia Set. Julia Sets are a series of fractals, generated by a recursive formula. The Julia Set is directly related to the Mandelbrot set. More information can be found in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg4bp7G0D3s
This model is of the Julia set of the function J(f) = -0.835 - 0.2321 * i.
