HOP
|
|
This is my number one favourite piece of
software.
The still images give no idea of the joy of using this program.
Wonderful colours and shapes dance and evolve on screen and you can
influence them by using your keyboard - like a visual synthesizer.
It runs perfectly on Windows 98SE and earlier but, as yet, not on later
versions unless you can fiddle the compatibility
issues. I like it
so much that I have an old machine with just HOP running - it's worth
it, but a separate partition for an early version of Windows would work
just as well.
It is also possible to run HOP on a modern machine by using a handy
program called DOSBox.
Anything is worth fiddling with to be able to see just how good this
program is when it's running. Stills give you no idea of
the ebb and flow of the colours and the shapes. Try it - you'll
love it!
Have a look at Michael's
gallery, the images are amazing!

Apophysis
|
|
This is a very popular piece of software - and it's open
source - so it won't cost money! The latest stable version
is Apophysis 2.02
but there are constant developments and the beta
versions are available from SourcForge.
A lot of very talented Apo users hang out in the FracFan forum.
Friendly and willing to help - who could ask for more?
