Charlie Babbs, West Lafayette, Indiana
Member Since May 2010
Artist Statement Charlie Babbs lives with his wife in West Lafayette, Indiana, USA, where he is a faculty member at Purdue University and Indiana University School of Medicine. He teaches medicine, physiology, and biomedical engineering, and enjoys backpacking, playing soccer, and making computer art.

His art explores new kinds of generalized fractals in the x-y plane using custom software in Microsoft Visual Basic to generate iterate functions x = f(x, y) and y = g(x, y). The classical Mandelbrot set appears when f(x, y) = x^2 – y^2 and g(x, y) = 2xy. Alternative choices of functions f and g lead to unlimited possibilities of interesting patterns and textures.
