Tattoos: Mandelbrot Set girl


Here's a a photo of a girl sporting a Mandelbrot set tattooed across her back I found at Miqel.com. The amazing part is that all she gave the artist was a piece of paper with z = z^2 + c on it.

  1. This is me. Where'd you hear that story about the equation on the paper? Urban myth unfortunately... kind of wondering where it came from. I plotted and printed the graph. The artist doesn't do calculus.

  2. Sorry, that's not an urban myth, just my own twisted sense of humor. I didn't expect anyone to take it seriously.

  3. Allya I am super intrigued by your tattoo. It is my favorite tattoo that I have ever seen. Would you be willing to share any other information about it? It is fabulous.
