Fractal animation showing variants of the Mandelbox fractal

This video is a panorama of the Mandelbox parameter space. The Mandelbox is a 3 dimensional fractal object discovered in 2010 by Tom Lowe and named after the father of fractal geometry Benoit Mandebrot. What we see here is actually a fixed cut in the middle of the Mandelbox, which has a cubic shape in general. This object exhibits the natural symmetries of a cube, but the iterated function that is used to generate it also uses the concept of symmetries intensely, most notably via the usage of a “folding” function that basically mirrors a point through different folding planes before going to the next iteration. This is translated graphically in the animation by the kaleidoscopic effects that can be seen around the 4 corners.
