Hi my friends!

Just a quick update on things...

Firstly Silvia :iconc-91: very kindly interviewed me for her 'The Great Mandelbulber' series #127: The Great Mandelbulber - GrahamSymGood morning! It's the 14th of the month, that is to say time to introduce another master of MB3D! :la:
We had a trip in Europe: we went to Italy, then in Scotland, to end in France. It's time to go back to the United Kingdom and pay a visit to GrahamSym, the master of sci-fi fractals! :la:
Well, in my opinion! :lmao: But I'm sure many of you will agree with me. :D
The Great Mandelbulber - GrahamSym
:bulletorange:Hello GrahamSym! Tell us something about you.
I live in East London, married 3 grown up children. I worked as a Museum technician, until ill health forced me to retire. I play guitar and bass. In the 80's and 90's I played in bands but it took too much comittment once my children were born, although I still have the odd jam with friends. I have been creating computer art of one sort or another since the late 90's. I used Terragen, Truespace, Blender, Bryce, Photoshop and a few others.
:bulletorange:When did you start making fractals? I
  I really appreciate this  and I am so honoured to be chosen, although I feel I am not worthy of this.

#114: The Great Mandelbulber - bib993Hello people, welcome to the third interview of The Great Mandelbulber series! :la:
Today I'm gonna introduce you Jérémie Brunet, better known as bib993!
Everybody knows Jérémie for his outstanding Mandelbulbs, which have been part of many shows, as the recent Beyond The Infinite exibition in Karlstad (Sweden) along with MANDELWERK:
Definetely a great example to follow! :love:
Let's go straight to the interview!
The Great Mandelbulber - bib993
:bulletyellow:Hello bib993! Tell us something about you.
I bought 2 high end PCs in last 2 years just to make fractals!
:bulletyellow:Was Mandelbulb 3D your first choice when you began your artistic journey?
To be honest, I never intended to begin any artistic journey! Like many fractalers I'm just a kind of lazy geek who likes to produce stunning graphics in a few mouse clicks. :-)
To answer your question, I don't remember exactly the first programs I used t

#100: The Great Mandelbulber - MarkJayBeeThe 100th issue of my journal and there's nothing better than a Great Mandelbulber to fill it!
Good morning people! Welcome to the second volume of The Great Mandelbulber, a series of interviews to discover the Mandelbulb3D world with the eyes of artists who use it. :woohoo:
The wait is finally over, here it is the interview with MarkJayBee! :w00t: Please, have some time to read it, you won't regret! :la:
The Great Mandelbulber - MarkJayBee
:bulletgreen:Hello MarkJayBee! Tell us some about you.
I live in the small seaside town of Largs, on the west coast of Scotland, which has some wonderful scenery and sea views. As a visual artist and photographer, living in this location has always acted as a great source of inspiration for me, and I count myself very fortunate to live here.
I've been producing artwork in one form or another for as long as I can remember – and that goes back quite a long while!! My influences mainly stem from Science F

#88: The Great Mandelbulber - dark-beamHello people, and welcome to the first of a (I hope) long series of interviews to Mandelbulb 3D artists!
First of all, I need to spend two words on the title: I know that there's another fractal program called Mandelbulber, which is different from Mandelbulb 3D, but the other alternative was to give the name of Mandelicious!, which sounds too stupid to me. :noes: I have difficulties in naming my fractals, let alone these things. :noes:
I studied a bit on what kind of question I could ask, and I have to thank all those people who make interviews here on dA (exspecially those I watch :noes:). They inspired me a lot! :love:
(yeah, some questions are pretty much the same :noes:)
dark-beam kindly accepted to be the first. :iconteheplz: He's a really nice fellow deviant, other than being the author of many MB3D's formulas. :hug:

It has been utter chaos at home for the past two weeks, as my daughter  moved  back to the family home  on Thursday. She has a very good job and works hard. But it is so hard for young people  today.
In London rent is a £1000+ a month  (not including utilities) for a two bedroom box. I will not start ranting about the state of the UK and the bunch of amateur politicians running the UK at the moment, I shall save that for another time.

She said she didn't have much stuff.... only 20 huge boxes stacked from floor to ceiling taking up over half the room, labeled shoes,boots,handbags, belts, makeup, and clothes. Plus a  hamster...

Her old room was being used as a junk room, so its been a case of car boot sales, charity shops and council dump to clear the room.
My youngest son who is still at home, only cared about moving his computer, piano and bed into his new room as soon as possible!!! (Hes got priorities)

I am not really complaining,  I am so proud of my children and its really lovely having my daughter back home.

Because of this, I have been doing a 'Hit and run' for ten minutes here and there to answer mail and fav peoples work. So I am really behind  with faving and commenting. I will try to catch up as soon as possible

Live long and prosper!

Peace!

Graham you and you wife are truly gems to go through all of this for your daughter. I am an only girl with brothers so I know how fathers feel about keeping a loving eye on their daughters. So this is a sort of sorry/happy note for you and Janice.

It was truly a sign of love to remove some of your stuff and not have her sell her hamster.:rofl:

Good Luck and hopefully peace,
Dygyt Alice
