Fractals, like me, are unbelievably cool.

The Factual Fractual.

Sounds good doesn't it? Even if it is a bit of a mouthful.

So what is a fractal, and why am I so damn factual about the things? A fractal is quite possibly the most amazing thing ever. It is a self-replicating shape. For instance, a triangle that sits on the side of a triangle. And has a triangle on each of its of its side.

Infinite possibilities. But this isn't some straight-line perfect-circle nonsense we've been obsessing over for the past 2,000 years.

This is your arteries, arterioles, capilliaries.

A tree trunk, branches and twigs.

The length of a piece of string. (Which despite the clear finite nature of string, according to some physicists is infinte. I know. Bizarre).

So there. Fractals. The building blocks of life etc.

But they are quite pretty.

And I intend to be factual about these things. Atleast from my perspective, anyway.
