Buddhabrot
The ''Buddhabrot'' is a fractal rendering technique related to the Mandelbrot set. Its name reflects its pareidolic resemblance to classical depictions of Gautama Buddha, seated in a meditation pose with a forehead mark (''tikka'') and traditional topknot (''ushnisha''). The map is created by counting the number of times in the iterative creation algorithm a point is visited.
==Discovery==
The ''Buddhabrot'' rendering technique was discovered and later described in a 1993 Usenet post to sci.fractals〔 by Melinda Green.〔Melinda Green (The Buddhabrot Technique )〕
Previous researchers had come very close to finding the precise Buddhabrot technique. In 1988 Linas Vepstas relayed similar images to Cliff Pickover for inclusion in Pickover's forthcoming book ''Computers, Pattern, Chaos, and Beauty''. This led directly to the discovery of pickover stalks. These researchers did not filter out non-escaping trajectories required to produce the ghostly forms typically reminiscent of Hindu art. The inverse, "Anti-Buddhabrot" filter produces images similar to no filtering. Green first named it Ganesh, since an Indian co-worker "instantly recognized it as the god 'Ganesha' which is the one with the head of an elephant."〔Daniel Green (The deity hiding in the m-set )〕 The name ''Buddhabrot'' was coined later by Lori Gardi.〔The University of Western Ontario’s newspaper (Chaos (theory) rules for software developer(PDF12MB) ), p. 10〕
