I not necessarily agree with the fractal effect idea, but this is a matter of taste. Regarding the idea with the CoF I agree. However, consider that a fractal effect easily could become like a tutorial video were the talked explanations become a melody by using http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/zita-at1-doc/quickguide.html The fractal effect represents some kind of incense stick Goa techno culture. Were is the skater street style, the Bauhaus Mondrian Ikea middle-class style, the youngster Manga cosplay style, the ... For art I don't dislike the fractal effect per se, but I dislike the idea of a biased representation of a tool for all arts. If the fractal effect doesn't repeat a picture of pencil 10,000 times, but instead the fractal would show category related art of incense stick Goa techno culture + skater street style + Bauhaus Mondrian Ikea middle-class style + youngster Manga cosplay style + foo and bar fashion, this might be better. 10,000 different pictures inside a fractal, yes, perhaps. 10,000 times repeating 1 picture, no. >>> The background pictures of the three graphics have nothing to do >>> with video, graphics and audio. > >That is the point i tried to make of merging the abstract Mandelbrot >patterns with something more figurative like the icons.

Perhaps the artist could provide something with a fractal effect. If I would be the artist, I would do something based on those suggestions without fractal effect. >Although, we have to be careful not to clutter it too much to preserve >the readability.
