Fractal Utensils

Alex

Fractal Forums user LhoghoNurbs posted this Photoshop entry to the site's Annual Fractal Art Competition 2012: a set of fractal utensils!

The set includes four pieces:
Cantor fork :: now you can pin a single kiwi seed. Twice in a row.
Recursive spoon :: it will never let you spill a drop of soup. Ever.
Koch knife :: to delicately cut hair-thin slices out of an egg. A raw egg.
The Infinity Set :: the set includes itself. As a subset.

LOL @ VonSkippy and Gil. That's a link to a site featured on Neatorama 2 weeks ago! (Albiet, that *particular* link is to a specific users city, increaing their industry stat).

But the fish do look like Seaman fish. I wonder is that's where the game creators got the idea.

My brain must not be working right. I've seen this clip so many times and they don't look like human faces at all to me. They look like fishes, not creepy ones, not scary in anyway. Just fish. What am I missing? I don't get it. :(

There's nothing special about those fish. Koi have had "human faces" forever. It's just an illusion of their scale coloration.

I took this photo of one at Walt Disney World's EPCOT Center last year.

meh.

Why is this so startling? They don't look all *that* human.

I just think it's funny that a person named "Gil" was making a comment in a thread about fish. Get it - gill?

Yeah, I don't think they look that human either. Maybe a little more like and animal than an average fish but not human. That's just my opinion. The video is not real clear. Maybe in "person" they look better.

Does anyone remember those "Animorph" books? I know the final one's a lizard (negative capability) but the third/fourth pic is a complete match http://www.scholastic.com/animorphs/download/anim01.jpg
