Put that in the "Win" thread, that was awesome.

Watched it twice and downloaded it. Love the music too.
Good electronic art with good electronic music.

Found some other tracks of his that I liked.

After watching through that latest video, I honestly think that fractals have a place in 3d gaming.

Imagine shipping that rendering work directly to the hardware and using a variety of patterns to poly surfaces. You could just lay a texture over it and allow it to do it's own LODs based on distance.

It's more complicated than that but still. It'd be pretty cool.
