Fractal Geometry

Fractal Geometry
How would you like to take a class called geometry of chaos? Probably doesn’t sound too thrilling. A man named Benoit Mandelbrot is responsible for creating the geometry of chaos. The geometry of chaos is considered to be the fourth-dimension. It is considered to be the world in which we live in, a world where there is constant change based on feedback, an open system where everything is related to everything else. It is now recognized as the true geometry of nature. The geometric system the can describe the simple shapes of the world (Lauwerier).
Fractal geometry is a structure that provided a new key for the study of non-linear processes (Lauwerier). Benoit Mandelbrot explained that lines have a single dimension, plane figures have two dimensions and that we live in a three dimensional spatial world (Fractals Useful Beauty). In a paper published in 1967, Mandelbrot investigated the idea of measuring the length of a coastline. Mandelbrot explained that the......
