A formula can be very simple, and create a universe of bottomless complexity.

Fractal geometry is not just a chapter of mathematics, but one that helps Everyman to see the same world differently.

A fractal is a way of seeing infinity.

Think of color, pitch, loudness, heaviness, and hotness. Each is the topic of a branch of physics

Smooth shapes are very rare in the wild but extremely important in the ivory tower and the factory.

Why is geometry often described as cold and dry? One reason lies in its inability to describe the shape of a cloud, a mountain, a coastline or a tree.

Bottomless wonders spring from simple rules, which are repeated without end.

A fractal is a mathematical set or concrete object that is irregular or fragmented at all scales...

If you have a hammer, use it everywhere you can, but I do not claim that everything is fractal.

Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line.

Detroit's political leadership is a parasite that has outgrown its host.

Infrastructure should not only be about Highways but also about Information Highways! The way ahead lies in creating optical fibre networks.

I lived to write, and wrote to live.
