Hope you don't mind, but I got really inspired by the sounds and made a little techno album with it! It's fairly minimal, and I recorded it simply by messing with the program while I had a few drum machines going, but I think it turned out pretty cool! https://doortonow-here.bandcamp.com/album/fracktalmusick-live
Honestly I think if we had the option to add reverb and select multiple points on a fractal this could potentially become a good ambient synthesizer for creating eerie or slightly dreamy sound effects.
Truly one of the wildest applications of mind-boggling math I've seen in a very long time. Stuff like this really, really gets me going. Amazing work, my favorite thing on this entire website.
A note for Windows 10 users: Windows manages your graphics card so FractalSoundExplorer.exe will by default run on your CPU, you have to manually specify to run it on your GPU in `Widows Settings > Graphics Settings > Graphics performance preference`. If you have an NVIDIA card you can also have a look trough your NVIDIA Control Panel settings, but if you have a decent NVIDIA card you probably already have gone through and customised your settings anyway.
If you try to run FractalSoundExplorer on your CPU it will probably seem fine until it starts to chug...
The only thing I can ask for is to make our own fractals. I don't think that the fractals we have are bad, but being able to create our own fractals would be a lot cooler.

Pretty cool! I used some of the sounds in a new track

Check out my port https://www.golova.dev/experiments/fractalSounds
Rip your Chromebook GPU
Use it to create custom fractals
wow
cool fracta
tell me how to use it?
...
ok?
that your fractal sounds
i have fractal sounds
thats awsome! you should make this into an audio plugin or something lol
Nice one!
Hey, when this becomes supported by apple OS then I'll definitely want this!
o
HOW DO YOU P
PLAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
this is fake code i made it myself and it it not harmful. it probably won't even work if u try it
you are twisting my mind
did you use atleast one braincell before posting this comment
i used 0.01 braincell
For me it wont open
i want it on chrome
Why can't I play it on the website?
There's always a problem saying that the virus scan failed.
Because it's a download
Because if your on mobile you don't have a keyboard to switch to other fractals
i'm not on mobile
Also, for laptop users, you can not hold J and move your mouse.
It would be convenient if you would let the users to choose which characters (from keyboard) do a certain action.
Can you offer a keyboard character for Scroll in and out? Not all of have a mouse with scroll wheel.
Is it a virus?
no
Can this work as a plugin for Ableton? I wanna use these sounds in music production.
this was amazing , thank you

Could there be a version for Apple users?
Dan where is the windows settings
WHERE
virus?
NO IT IS NOT A VIRUS
great not a malware.
Amazing software thanks so much for sharing! I've got some ideas for "feature requests", would you prefer them on here or on the GitHub repo?

OpenGL was not meant for fractals. How did you do it? I can't even write simple shaders without my computer crashing. You are magical.

Youre not funny for making a paragraph of question marks
I'm not trying to be funny, I'm trying to convey the level of frustration that I'm experiencing.
why do you have a 32-bit computer in the first place?
yeah, why not have windows 10 or something?
Yeah what if i am a poor failure? Then what? All i really can do is nothing then, lol.
I'm on Windows 7 and it's working fine, but there are some things like this that happen too.
To be honest, I just can't afford a better one.
i have wnidows 10
*You're
nice
Why would you get mad at a correction though?
Yeah, why?
Code made that.
guys it works if you leave the .exe file in the folder
It works even on Linux with Wine
I can't seem to get past "Press any key to continue..."
Can anyone offer a way round this?
Install OpenGL. Make sure both GLSL files are in the same folder as the EXE file.
