      This shape is a fractal made from the Mandelbrot set. I guess the joke is that the more you zoom in the edges the more detail there is, so doing them would be an impossibly infinite task. https://mander.xyz/post/8966692More info on the Mandelbrot set here.

        This shows the phenomenon pretty well. I like to watch this once in a while to remind myself that I know nothing about anything.

      From the mandelbrot boundary wiki: “Images of the Mandelbrot set exhibit an infinitely complicated boundary that reveals progressively ever-finer recursive detail at increasing magnifications”

        Thankyou. Even as a concept I find it creepy
