It gernerates fractal patterns on your computer and tons of other computers and shares them all with each other, and you can vote for your favorite and that one will be the most showed.

sweet mate, you know about the book with the same name as what you wrote as the title?

if you have access to a mac i highly reccomend a program called knot

http://www.flamingpear.com/knot.html

if you have xgrid as well for your 10.4.2 server or the addon program package
to aquire an xgrid server you can make all your macs work on one programs data instructions.

povray can also be used to create objects like this.

thanks for the info i like to explore these types of programs

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself 

Philip K Dick..Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?, that was the book they based Bladerunner on, the book didn`t make much impression on me when I read it, I prefered the Foundation series (actualy they would make an excellent series of movies).




to avoid the consequences of global warming, get into a car and join millions of other people in burning millions of gallons of fuel in a huge traffic jam.

I love the computer Harrison Ford uses to analyse the image. High tech.

wow, that's a really neat idea, using GAs to create fractiles based on popular vote. Think I'm gonna install this one, the SETI thing has been there long enough.
