Julia's true colours

I never thought I'd make an animated fractal, but here we are.

 

This is but a small glimpse of the vast and wondrous landscape of the Julia set, named after the French mathematician Gaston Julia and closely related to the famous Mandelbrot set.

 

Julia also happens to be the name of our new 'surprise' Prime Minister, who after her brief honeymoon period is now starting to reveal a few more colours and shades besides those of her famous red hair (though not all of them are as pretty).

 

I created this using the free software ChaosPro 4. Very nifty, although its animation component could be improved!
