Fractals: a world in a grain of sand | Ben Weiss | TEDxVeniceBeach

[yamingoat]

his theory on psychedelics and fractals is interesting, when i take acid i not only "see" but i also feel fractals in my mind.

[gabrielawcislo]

Wow. My three favourite things.. Fractals, psychedelics and neural networks/machine learning all in one TED video? Unreal!! This talk just got better and better every minute. I hope I can join you guys at google some day. Thank you mr. Weiss!!!

The mind is absolutely a fractal. One thought does not become another thought: it becomes ten, a hundred, a thousand other thoughts, ad infinitum.

how is it possible that this video has only 1.4k views and 3 comments...? this blew my
mind

[lucenaemory]

I learned alot from this Ted Talk, which is exactly what they are for. I understand so much more when scientists speak human. Showing us how much more wonderful our world is than even our imagination can be. Amazing how something so simple is also so complex. I LOVE FRCTILES!

Watching fractals puts me into a meditative state quickly.

You're late to the party. It's not the mind that is fractal, it is consciousness itself as it continuously self references through time. And this pattern is in nature, physics and in our behaviour patterns because everything has the fingerprint of the divine that is the eternal loop. It is only limited in this realm and shows itself as a pattern we refer to mathematically as "fractal". Oh, and the ancients already knew this and it's a law they called "the law of correspondence".

my brain tickles while watching the fractals! AMAZING!

[MargarethWattsofficialmay]

I appreciate this so much!! I'm so excited about the app! So many things I love in this one video!🙌 Math, fractals, psychedelics, higher learning, and mental health Awareness!!!
I have been theorizing that everything is fractals, including consciousness!!! I feel so validated and happy watching this TEDx Talk!! 😁

[rtlamb]

I absolutely love it! Thank Ben for all that you have done and continue to do for all of us!

[dhartdata]

A beautiful talk. I recently work with machine learning and the idea of connection between fractals and neural networks are interesting! Wish they could teach more of such stuff to students earlier.

Micro cosm of the macro cosm, we are all reflections of the whole.

I just stumbled across this video. I had been showing my son the Frax app and he was blown away. I googled some videos about fractals so we could go a little deeper. The second video we picked was this one. It was not a link from the app or the website. When I realized this was a Tedtalk from one of the creators of the app I was thrilled! Maybe there was a nearly fractal certainty that we’d end up here. Sort of a decision tree like a fractal tree where no matter which branch we started from it would always lead to the same trunk. I just wanted you to know that your goal of stirring interest in mathematics by creating the app is working quite nicely, in young and not so young alike. Thank you!

Stunning and brilliant! 
Sands of time, fractals of the mind...
This is the dawning and the cosmos are responding to the colliding of thought to fracture the dense realities that have been imposed.
BRAVO!!!

[wokebloke]

I’ve had the app for months and I love it!!

[CIRCAvideos]

Astonishing, poetic & impactful on so many levels; thank you, I see it now

[jobutl]

I've owned the Frax HD app for years now...best app on my iPad and iPhone. Get it !

[naandiewright]

this video was an excellent explanation of fractals. Ive known that the universe is a hologram but i never really understood it enough to explain to someone else. this video solved that problem. wow and the images literally blew my mind. so beautiful. You have to admit, this world was created so beautifully. and i like the thought that our mind may also be a fractal. I think fractals helps to explain how we are reflections of God and that God is in us as well. Just like with fractals, the pattern gets more complex but you always find the original inside wow terrific
absolutely fantastic!

[aiouieeli]

I don't know if it is just me, but I love the way the silence in a second or two in this video... It's like a pace for my mind to process. He talks slow too which helps me understand every word better. Its been a hard time understanding fractals since we just have online classes, but then, this video was suggested and it is amazing now that I understand it.

[bggeorgieva]

Wow! I wanted to explain fractals to my cousin and your TEDx talk popped. The best ever explanation and Wow! What an infinity images your app can create. Im blown away what you created Ben!
