    Extractions: and the Geometry of Chaos geometry of chaos , we must first understand his story. Benoit Mandelbrot, now both an IBM scientist and Professor of Mathematics at Yale, made his great discoveries by defying establishment, academic mathematics. In so doing he went beyond Einstein's theories to discover that the fourth dimension includes not only the first three dimensions, but also the gaps or intervals between them, the fractal dimensions. The geometry of the fourth dimension - fractal geometry - was created almost singlehandedly by Mandelbrot. It is now recognized as the true Geometry of Nature. Mandelbrot's fractal geometry replaces Euclidian geometry which had dominated our mathematical thinking for thousands of years.. We now know that Euclidian geometry pertained only to the artificial realities of the first, second and third dimensions. These dimensions are imaginary. Only the fourth dimension is real. More on this later; first, a little on the man behind the Laws and the math world he revolutionized. His intellectual journey took him far from the beaten roads of academic math into many out of the way disciplines. For instance, he became expert in certain areas of linguistics, game theories, aeronautics, engineering, economics, physiology, geography, astronomy and of course physics. He was also an avid student of the history of Science. Importantly, he was also one of the first mathematicians in the world to have access to high speed computers. In his words:

    Extractions: vienna university of technology ... Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth ... This quotation by Mandelbrot shows that the Euclidean geometry - the perfect “clinical” shapes of cones, pyramids, cubes and spheres - is not the best way to describe natural objects. Clouds, mountains, coastlines and bark are all in contrast to Euclidean figures not smooth but rugged and they offer the same irregularity in smaller scales, which are some important characteristics of fractals - see chapter “ 2.2 Characteristics ”. As the following pages indicate, fractal geometry, in opposition to Euclidean geometry, offers better methods for description or for producing similar natural-like objects respectively. The language in which it is expressed is called “algorithms”, by which complex objects like a fern or a cloud can be reduced to simpler formulas or transformation rules respectively. Fractals can be found everywhere from coastlines, border-lines and other natural rough lines to clouds, mountains, trees, plants, ... and maybe also in architecture. The following chapters explain what a fractal is in general and how fractals can be used for architectural analysis and in the stage of planning. Fractals are used as a helping tool for explanation in many fields ranging from medicine to economy. From this point of view fractals should not be excluded from architecture.

    Extractions: 2.2.6 A Fractal is Common in Nature Benoit Mandelbrot, the “father” of the popularity of fractals today, introduced fractal geometry by the question of how long the coastline of Britain is. This question of length seems to be very trivial but nevertheless there is more than one possible answer. To get a better understanding of the problem of length-measurement first of all let’s have a closer look on how the coastline of Britain may be measured: for measuring the length of the outline it is possible to use a certain map with a certain scale, following the coast by a ruler. When we repeat this way of measuring on another map of a smaller scale, the outline turns out to be longer. The reason lies in the fact that the latter map will offer more details, that is sub-bays, inlets, cliffs and rocks, whose circumferences are included in the measurement which finally leads to the increased length, see picture 01. So the coastline may be longer or shorter, depending on the scale of the map we are using for measurement. picture 01: The coastline of Britain: How long is the coastline of Britain?

    Extractions: A Talk with Benoit Mandelbrot Introduction During the 1980s Benoit Mandelbrot accepted my invitation to give a talk before The Reality Club. The evening was the toughest ticket in the 10 year history of live Reality Club events during that decade: it seemed like every artist in New York had heard about it and wanted to attend. It was an exciting, magical evening. I've stayed in touch with Mandelbrot and shared an occasional meal with him every few years, always interested in what he has to say. Recently, we got together prior to his 80th birthday. Mandelbrot is best known as the founder of fractal geometry which impacts mathematics, diverse sciences, and arts, and is best appreciated as being the first broad attempt to investigate quantitatively the ubiquitous notion of roughness. And he continues to push the envelope with his theory of roughness. "There is a joke that your hammer will always find nails to hit," he says. "I find that perfectly acceptable. The hammer I crafted is the first effective tool for all kinds of roughness and nobody will deny that there is at least some roughness everywhere."

    Extractions: Meanwhile, for over fifty years, I have watched as some disciplines exhaust the "top down" problems they know how to tackle. So they wander around seeking totally new patterns in a dark and deep mess, where an unlit lamp is of little help. But the eye can continually be trained and, long ago, I have vowed to follow it, therefore work "from the bottom up." Like the Antaeus of Greek myth, I gather strength and persist by often touching the earth. A few of the truths the eye told me have been disproven. Let it be. Others have been confirmed by enormous and fruitful effort, and then blossomed, one being the four thirds conjecture in Brownian motion. Many others remain, one being the MLC conjecture about the Mandelbrot set, in which I believe for no other reason than trust in the eye.

    Extractions: By Jeffrey Goldsmith Fractals is a branch of mathematics that reveals patterns in a coastline, swings of commodities prices, and properties of new materials such as aerogels. The brainchild of maverick mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot, who coined the term in the 1970s and popularized it in the 1980s, fractals (for fractional dimensions) allowed him to eschew traditional geometric analysis in favor of his own flair for visualizing phenomena. Among his discoveries is Z2+C, the Mandelbrot Set, which relies on digital computers to distinguish the simplest boundary between chaos and order. Its graph is a colorful design, the result of an iterative feedback loop, with different colors representing this recursive equation's acceleration toward infinity. Fractals now can be applied to such utilitarian chores as digital compression, but they are also applied in far-flung research, from finding the best mix of tire ingredients to studying turbulence on wing designs to texturing medical images.

    http://domino.research.ibm.com/comm/pr.nsf/pages/bio.mandelbrot.html
    
    Extractions: His creation of fractal geometry and the concept that simple rules can generate infinitely complex structures and behaviors defines a paradigm rooted in the fact that fractals "are irregular geometric shapes having identical structure at all scales.'' According to Mandelbrot, their irregular and complex behavior is echoed from scale to scale. Mandelbrot's multi-disciplinary explorations began with his doctoral thesis in 1952, which combined linguistics (a mathematical analysis of the distribution of words) with the tools of statistical thermodynamics. In the early 1960s, he moved to study finance, demonstrating that price fluctuations in markets are not smooth, as economists thought, but are often choppy, discontinuous and always concentrated in time.
