ah ok I'm in Hatfield we're all kinda scattered in here nice to meet you I'm Jon

I have many things I'm interested in, just don't know how to proceed...Fractals, art&math, music&math
there are remarkable similarities between fractal design, curves, sound...it's all math related. How do I code some of this stuff?!
I've never coded before and seem to think algorithms have something to do with it.

you're looking at things that are far more advanced than I am but we have some amazing developers in here who may be able to contribute, they're a little busier with school work etc right now but @SimplyPhy and @davidjcastner may be able to point you in the right direction. I know @Lilyheart just said the other day she hasn't really done much with fractals

@KR62
I'm Kathy, by the way.

@lantech19446
nice to meet you Kathy

@Lilyheart
'ello all. Seems I fell asleep. \^^/ greeting Kathy.

I've not been feeling week these past few days :O

Hello Lily, nice to meet you via the Internet world.

@Lilyheart
Hi @TedTyree_twitter Ted! Sorry about the last conversation start.
heh [Kathy says like we don't chat on Facebook already]

hello
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
I need to get over the bug or whatever it is. It's affecting my sleep, and affecting my sleep affects my ears and head.
Jonathan Herman
@lantech19446
what are you doing for it?
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
'ello Scott. Welcome back (I wanna say... memory is blarg today)

@KR62
So I went to Rosemont last week and met up with the fellows at BSD Code academy, met with Mike and JP. That's how I got introduced to CSS & CodePen.
Jonathan Herman
@lantech19446
what is BSD code academy?

Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
looks like coding, robotics and design on the Main Line.
So outside of Montgomery County (Mont Co... MontCode xD ) so something I'm not familiar with :p

@KR62
Whoever cares to check out my artwork I have 3 sites listed on Codepen, I would love it if you guys would check it out. I'd like to figure out a way to code similar geometric designs.
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
It's gonna be a lot of math. Did you see the links Mike posted on your Facebook post?
I heard Khan Academy has some good math courses.
KR62
@KR62
No, not yet, I have to look at them.
Apparently there is an awesome fractal app on the iPhone called Frax. But I have Android.
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
We have a few iPhone users in the group that might be able to check it out for you but I don't know if any are on right now.

@KR62
that's cool.
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
I can see if I can coerce my roommate into trying it.
Jonathan Herman
@lantech19446

@KR62
Has anyone ever coded a kaleidoscope program? the one on Sumopaint is superb, you can manipulate the center point and all of the parameters.
Sumopaint is equivalent to Photoshop, only it's online and free.
Jonathan Herman
@lantech19446
I couldn't even draw it let alone program it lol
Eric Phy
@SimplyPhy
ha I forgot about sumopaint xD
hey @KR62 and @TedTyree_twitter
Lily Romano
@Lilyheart
No, but I was wondering if you could use paper.js and do something on a webpage. found this link

@SimplyPhy
I’m in the middle of something, but ill give a peak at everything soon
@KR62 I might explore fractals to help build crystal growth functions on a future project :fire:
check these guys out, Roger and Michael, their work is the epitome of what I would like to do...fractals in motion to music. Especially covering the wall of a home!
