Both kids want to go deeper into Mandelbrot, Julia sets, Mandelbulb and fractals in general. Can't find many books on geometry in general in the library. They have liked Gems of Geometry and Beautiful Geometry.

 

ETA:

Also anyone with experience in the Mandelbulb software or other fractal software? Kids like the Fractoid software on the Kindle but it can crash. I'm down to one working laptop so I don't wish to crash that.

 

ETA:

links we have looked at

Fractal geometry (Yale)

Fractal Foundation activites

Fractal projects for geometry students

When I went searching last month for some fun projects on fractals I can across this list linked to another university website. It has a ton of great resources, including several options for freeware or shareware modeling programs. If you scroll to the bottom, we really liked the World of Fractals site..
