Watch the video and complete the statements that follow:

Fractals – The Color of Infinity

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk6QU94xAb8

1.) Three things that I significantly learned from the video clip

As I have watched the clip, I have learned that simple formulas can lead to complicated results. I
have also learned the meaning behind the Mandelbrot Set and Lastly, the discovery of the history of
Mathematics.

2.) Three things that are still unclear to me

After watching the video, I still need thorough explanation about the fractal equation, the fractal
image compression technology, and the present ideas of color stealing using random iteration.

3.) I used to think that

Fractals does not have a major contribution in our everyday life. They are not necessary to learn.
However, after watching the documentary. I have come to realize that Fractals are not just only shapes
or geometric figures but we can also see Fractals in our nature.

4.) Three questions that I want to ask about the video clips

The tree questions that I want to ask are, thorough explanation regarding the Mandelbrot Set,
Fractals regarding Geometry and the applications of Mandelbrot Set.
