Hunting the Hidden Dimension

The PBS series NOVA took on the fascinating quest of mathematicians determined to decipher the rules that govern fractal geometry. Irregular shapes were considered beyond the boundaries of mathematical understanding, but after applied research on IBM's mainframes these remarkable findings have deepend our understanding of nature and are stimulating new waves of innovation.

Watch the video in high resulation and check-out Benoit Mandelbrot's game changing book The Fractal Geometry of Nature  icon_scal[1] by you.
