Related: About this forumHypercomplex Fractals 3D code



Hypercomplex numbers are similar to the usual 2D complex numbers, except they can be extended to 3 dimensions or more. When you use hypercomplex numbers to generate fractals, you can create some interesting looking 3D fractals.

How about p-adic fractals, and/or shared fields of p-adics and reals?

Sentient physics of physics as generalized number theory and generalized number theory as "quantum math" of generalized number theory as n-dimensional Hilbert space of mathematical self-reflection where each point of Hilbert space contains a Hilbert space...?!
I can utter the words, barely, but my mathematical-geometric imagination is not up to the task of genuine comprehension...
