Award Winning 'Fractal' Programme comes to the Science Dome
Fractals is the spectacular, award-winning fulldome planetarium show that takes viewers on a tour of the fractals in nature and zooms through infinitely complex mathematical fractals. Featuring original music, the show is both educational and highly entertaining, and suitable for audiences 3 and up

While these fractal zooms are mathematical abstractions, audiences are always amazed to recognize that patterns of nature -- shapes such as trees, lightning, coastlines, insects, bacteria, seashells and more - can all be found within a fractal zoom. Each fractal tells the story of the processes that created it -- whether the erosion of a canyon, the evolution of a galaxy, or the computation of an equation. The powerful lesson from this exploration - the Butterfly Effect - is how small changes to a system can lead to dramatic changes in the outcome.

Audiences of all ages enjoy the visual adventure of journeying into the infinitely complex world of fractals – endlessly repeating patterns made from simple algebraic equations. Consisting of seven individual fulldome animations created by Dr. Jonathan Wolfe, Fractal Programme offers educators a powerful new tool for teaching math and related sciences in the dome.
A production of the Fractal Foundation. Approximately 24 minutes.
