- This is a scene entry of https://vimeo.com/5810737 - Original upload by Loren Carpenter, CGI pioneer, co-founder of Pixar. I am uploading it to Pouet for its historical significance to the Demoscene: First presented at SIGGRAPH in July 1980, it demonstrated various demoscene like effects, like fractals, plasma effects and so on. It is not hard to see the ways it paved for the demoscene a few years later.

ORIGINAL TEXT:
Loren Carpenter: “I made this film in 1979-80 to accompany a SIGGRAPH paper on how to synthesize fractal geometry with a computer. It is the world’s first fractal movie. It utilizes 8-10 different fractal generating algorithms. I used an antialiased version of this software to create the fractal planet in the Genesis Sequence of Star Trek 2, the Wrath of Khan. These frames were computed on a VAX-11/780 at about 20-40 minutes each.” - rulezadded on the 2026-01-25 16:05:40
