fourdimensional quaternionic fractals are visualized by projecting them into threedimensional space. instead of modeling objects or scenes of human imagination I tried to experiment with the visualization of pure mathematics. for this computeranimation only the variables of one formula (x[n+1]=x[n]^p-c) were changed. it took me about a year to get an idea of the transformations and shapes which could be expressed by this formula. another year was needed to render the sequences which I wanted to use. to actually work with the means used to describe the fabrics of our space and universe in modern science fascinated me. in the days of pythagoras science with math and geometry in particular held great mystical qualities. pythagoras even formed a sect, the pythagorean order to spread his belief in science.
