Happy Chinese new year!


Boy oh boy... it was close. Less than 2 days before Chinese new year! Just because I didn't draw one for Christmas, I have to do it this time, even if it means no sleep. (And before you know it, it's Valentine's Day! Aaaaargh another card!) Anyway, happy Chinese new year! (^_^)

Fractals!

Mmm~ I miss my fractals. It's been 4 years. I made this image with... oh dear, I even forgot the name of the software! (It must be in the missing half of my brain.) There's gotta be better free ware out there. To my horror, there isn't! Whatever available is pretty much the same! (Ok, except for XaoS.)

In the process of searching, I found this site.
A DVD of fractal deep zoom! What an idea! Well, it's interesting, but I don't know how many people out there would buy it. I wouldn't mind picking up a documentary type DVD but this seems to be mainly zooming.

This movie was made by animating the seed of the Mandelbrot set. Very interesting!
If you're not familiar with fractals, watch this and this.

1 year worth of dust

Oh * my * god...

I bought a netted back rest (seen on the desk) during my 2004 Christmas trip to Hong Kong and Japan. It stayed on the chair untouched for a year. And then what happened? This is how much dust you can collect in one year! Aaaargh~ horrible!!

Talking about chairs, there's this set of toy designer chairs.
Anything you can name, they have a toy. Yikes!
