Wood burning, which goes by pyrography when it’s feeling fancy, has been an art form for centuries ... the voids really brings out the fractal nature of the Lichtenberg figures.

Trees depicted in famous artworks across a range of styles follow the same mathematical rules as their real-life counterparts ...

“I found it a highly stimulating read, with an interesting connection between works of art and biology.” In nature, fractal patterns aren’t just aesthetically pleasing, they’re also often ...

Researchers from the Max Planck Institute in Marburg and the Philipps University in Marburg have discovered the first regular ...

Gao and Newberry used mathematical rules for fractal calculations ... In real trees in nature, that number is usually somewhere between 1.5 and 3, depending on the tree. But in art, it’s all ...

Trees depicted in the artwork of famous painters like Leonardo da Vinci and Piet Mondrian follow the math behind their branching pattern in nature, a new study says. At such a critical moment in US ...

Marcus du Sautoy describes how fractal geometry can be used to describe natural objects, and how it is used in digital animation. Trees use the simple rule of trying to maximise surface area ...

The inspiration for this garden stems from Chris Beardshaw’s study of fractal geometry found in nature and its structures: of beauty being formed out of science and art. The garden has two ...
