Can you help me find a fractal drawing program?

Question

In a previous course on chaos, the professor had us experiment with a program. The program allowed you to draw a base image (with microsoft paint like tools), then it would iterate that image under various popular fractals. Note: The program was browser based. I have two old GIFs (with similar base image), which demonstrates what the program outputs:

Has anyone seen/heard of this?

Thanks, Austin

Answer 1

The "Deterministic IFS" applet on this Yale course page seems to fit the description.

• You start with an input image
• You enter rules for the transformation
• The software applies the transformation, one step at a time. You can follow along to see the fractal generation.
• It is a Java applet, so is/can be browser based.
