Amsterdam VFX supervisor and fractal artist Julius Horsthuis is back with another stunner from the Mandelbrot universe, the exploration of a spectacular space-scape called “Fraktaal.”

Julius Horsthuis: “I borrowed the aesthetic from science fiction films, and isolated that into something that I hope will stimulate the imagination into its own spacefaring journey.

“It so happens that I’m a lazy animator. Using fractals, I can conjure up entire worlds without having to draw or model anything. These shapes hide in the formulas, they exist in a mathematical reality, all I need to do is explore those worlds and make them reveal themselves.

“For me, that discovery has become one of the most thrilling aspects of digital filmmaking.”
