Fractal wave

The Fractal Sea - Yet another fractal gallery (always under construction)

It is graphics-heavy, slower to load than most of this site.

More fractals at The Land of Fractalia

Some of my best fractals are now being offered as high-quality framed prints at a local gallery.

Music

I haven't done anything recently, but I'm making some of my tunes available here again. These are self-playing EXE files, no need for a player (since most people seem to think Windwoes Media Player is all there is and everything is an mp3 - and my stuff isn't).

The files are zip-compressed, you will need something to unpack them. 7Zip is one of the best, and not a big download. I never recommend WinZip because it is shareware and naggy, and why bother when there is something that's really free?

Kansas Nights - I wrote this for Hashmark Pin, the world's smallest hacker, when the unfortunate Borrower was stranded in Topeka (story withdrawn from web archive -- sorry). It is an attempt to evoke an atmosphere of loneliness and longing mingled with trains passing in the night. All of the sounds used in it were computer-generated. Some like it (I do), some don't.

Everything Is Magic! - This extensive doodle was the last thing I completed before I laid off music again.

The Black Swan - a short tone poem with no real theme, but it has its good moments

My Lucky Black Cat - Made for pure fun, now it's a memorial of sorts...Friday Coyote Moonchild was the sweetest cat ever born, but he was doomed to die young. Folks, don't let your kitties roam. Too many diseases get passed around that way. The "meowing" in this piece is not recorded cat voices, BTW. I produced the effects by manipulating the sound with the tracker.

My Head's Morning Dance - This one will either wake you up or drive you bazonkers. There was this odd bit of melody in my head one morning...


You want free? Well...everything here is, more or less, but here's some animated smilies. I got started making some custom smilies for Jenn's Rockfest Forum, the Most Smilied Forum On The Web - reconstructed as Jenn's Chatterboard Forum, now consigned to the Great Bitbucket In The Sky. I love doing animation, but I don't want it all over my normal pages.

If you want more music, for now you can cop a tune at the Mod Archive (Ringmaker is an old handle that I use there). They are not MP3s, and Windows Media Player has no clue. Get XMplay, it's the best IMHO. Of course it's free, that's all I can afford. wink
