Fractal geometry, a relatively new branch of mathematics, was first introduced by Benoit Mandelbrot in 1975. Since then, its applications have expanded into various fields of natural science. In fact, it has been recognized as one of the three significant scientific discoveries of the mid-20th century, along with the Dissipative System and Chaos Theory. With the help of fractal geometry, designers can create intricate and expressive artistic patterns, using the concept of self-similarity found in nature. The impact of fractal geometry on the digital art world is significant and its exploration could lead to new avenues for creativity and expression. This paper aims to explore and analyze the development and applications of fractal geometry in digital art design. It also aims to showcase the benefits of applying fractal geometry in art creation and paves the way for future research on sacred geometry.

The purpose of this study is to propose a new design principles and to analyze the pattern of art and architecture applying fractal concepts. As this study is based on fractal geometry as a natural science, 1 intented to explain the concepts and provide some methods of generating fractal properties. Two major aspects are discussed. Frist, fractals are geometric shapes that are self-similar, in other words, they iterate a basic shape at ever increasing a decreasing dimensions. Self-similarity, irregularity, and scaling are fundamental characteristics of fractal geometry. Second, the fractal concepts of art and design can be analyzed and used as a critical tool. In both criticism and design, fractals provides a tool In fine, fractal geometry can be provided endless possibilities for artists and designers intended in expressing the more complex underlying rhythms and organic patterns of nature.

Men study the nature in two ways. Scientists and mathematicians inquire a branch of those two ways. Mathematical formulations are the tools and the expressions of their nature. Meanwhile, the other branch, the art, alms for different inquiry. Instead of formulating the nature, the artists create their masterpieces from their ultimate source, the Mother Nature. For thousands of years these two branches have grown together, influencing each others work. Some mathematicians find that formulation, are not enough to fully express the beauty of nature. It is believed that such a simple expression, formula, easily omits the careful details of nature. The nature is simply too chaotic to be shaped with a formula. Of those mathematicians, Mandelbrot, one of the first to realize this matter, introduced the world of fractal geometry. Fractals give new possibilities. It allows us not to limit ourselves to linear prospect, rather a whole new view of this chaotic beauty of the nature. A popular practice to understand fractals is in costume design. The artistic characteristic and organization mechanism is appalled to costumes. Meanwhile, another practice, rather aggressive, is using computer to create an image of fractals. This image is then used for motives to generate artistic expressions. Computer and paper ironing technique is used for fashion illustration in this research. The works were synthesized arid transformed from computer programs. To add more traditional painting touch to this work, Paper ironing technique was used. Since the of effect of this technique is so random, irregular, and unordered, it corresponds to fractal consideration. This thesis asserts an another prospect to fractal as a structural way of describing nature ailed fashion illustration, rather than restricting it to only mathematical theory.

Contemporary architecture is showing its deconstruction and departure from modern architecture based on rationality, such as reductionism or virtualism. This means a shift from a mechanistic and ecological world view to an organic and ecological view, from a deterministic reason to a reason for a possible secret static. This study examines the potential of fractals, a scientific theory of complexity that is emerging as a new paradigm in the 21st century, as an appropriate alternative to contemporary complexity architecture. The method and scope of this study were understood and its features were identified through literature and data research and prior study review. Based on the organic nature of fractal geometry, we analyzed the works of contemporary architects(Frank Gehry, Bernard Tschumi, Steven Holl, Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Daniel Libeskind, Zvi Hecker, Ito Toyo) and studied the possibility of architectural design using the principle of fractal. As a result, fractal geometry, similar to the patterned order of nature, has an infinite set of organizational functionalities in architecture and can be applied in various aspects of design analysis. Architectural designs based on the fractal theory will require more research and development to realize dynamic design representation using digital computers.

Generating fractal images by graphing calculators such as TI_92 combines several important features, which convey the excitement of a living, changing mathematics appropriate to secondary or post-secondary students. The topic of fractal geometry can be illustrated using natural objects such as snowflakes, leaves and ferns. These complex and natural forms are often striking fantastic and beautiful. The examples highlight the fact that complex, natural behaviors can result from simple mathematical rules such as those embodied in iterated function systems(IFS). The visual splendor beauty of fractals, in concert with their ubiquity in nature, revels the intellectual beauty of nonlinear mathematics in a compelling way. The window is now open for students to experience and explore some of the wonder of fractal geometry.

현대과학자들은 우주라는 복잡계(複雜界)에서 질서의 기본 단위 즉 프랙털(fractal)의 원리를 찾으려고 애쓰고 있다. 프랙털은 수학이나 물리학에서 주로 사용하는 용어이지만, 어떤 궁극적 실재가 다면적 양상을 나타내는 이유를 설명하는 원리로서 적합하다. 프랙털은 이미 과학계에서는 상용화된 원리로서 컴퓨터 그래픽 분야에 널리 응용된다. 본고에서는 프랙털의 원리를 활용하여 대순사상에서 궁극적 실재가 구현되는 양상을 밝힌다. 대순사상에는 도, 상제, 신(신명), 무극, 태극, 천지 등 다양한 궁극적 실재들이 등장하는데, 이들 개념은 서로 회통한다. 즉 궁극적 실재가 프랙털 원리에 의해 구현된다는 사실을 밝힘으로써 궁극적 실재들의 일치ㆍ회통은 현대과학에 의해 뒷받침되고 있음을 밝힌다. 그러나 전(全)세계의 주류 종교들을 인격신교와 비(非)인격신교로 나누었을 때, 대부분의 종교들은 궁극적 실재를 초월적이며 인격적인 존재로 상정하고 있으며, 이들은 신과 인간의 관계를 프랙털[음양 프랙털, 홀론]의 관계로 상정할 수 없다. 또한 궁극적 실재를 내재적이며 비인격적인 존재로 상정하는 종교들도 홀론의 실현 정도-모든 부분과 전체의 되먹힘-에는 다소 차이를 보이고 있는데, 대순사상은 가장 직접적으로 신(신명)과 인간이 음양 프랙털의 관계임을 명시하고 있다. 즉 "신(신명)은 음(陰), 인간은 양(陽)", "인간이 곧 신적(神的) 존재"라는 것이다. 나아가 대순사상에서는 이 궁극적 실재를 다양한 관점에서 여러 가지 개념으로 제시하고 있으며, 이들이 회통할 수 있음을 밝히고 있다. 이렇듯, 우주를 홀론(홀라키)으로 파악하는 관점은 영원철학의 핵심 요지(要旨)이기도 하다. 세계의 위대한 영적 스승들, 사상가들, 철학자들, 과학자들이 채택한 보편적인 종교관 즉 영원철학에 따르면 궁극적 실재는 서로 일치하며, 인간과 신은 서로 다르지 않다. 바꿔 말해 대순사상에 나타난 궁극적 실재론의 진리성은 현대 과학과 영원철학에 의해 뒷받침 된다.

새로운 자연과학의 패러다임으로 대두되고 있는 복잡성의 과학인 카오스(Chaos), 프랙탈(Fractal) 이론은 자연을 몇 개의 단순한 요소로 분해 이해하는 것이 아니라 전체적인 관계 속에서 이해하는 것이다. 인간과 자연을 포함한 모든 세계를 바라보는 우리의 시각을 비선형성, 다양성, 시간성, 복잡성으로 향하게 하며 비정수 차원의 자연과 복잡성을 표현하기에 적합한 적용 방법이다. 비선형적 프랙탈 기하학과 카오스 이론을 예술방면으로 응용하는 것은 과학과 예술이 만나는 상상의 영역이며 아직까지 많은 연구가 이루어지지 않은 분야이다. 이러한 프랙탈 형태의 기하학적 특성과 조형 원리를 파악하기 위해 객관적인 자료를 분석해 조형 언어를 추출한 연구이다. 형식에 있어서 수학적인 방법에 의한 프랙탈적 분석이라기보다는 프랙탈의 여러 개념 가운데 특히 자기 유사성(Self-similarity)과 반복성(Recursiveness) 그리고 무작위성(Randomness), 불가능한 공간에 의해 표현되어진 도형과 그래픽디자인과의 조형적인 유사성을 밝혀 보았다. 즉 프랙탈 도형은 부분의 부분, 또 그 부분을 반복해서 확대해 가도 도형의 본직적인 구조가 변하지 않는 특성을 가지고 있다. 이와 같이 무한소까지 확대해도 전체와 일치하는 자기 닮음 구조로 되어있다. 이것은 어느 부분이나 전체를 재구성할 수 있는 정보를 모두 가지고 있음을 뜻한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 배경을 바탕으로 그래픽디자인에서 나타난 기하학적 조형성에 대한 프랙탈적 분석 가능성을 주로 검토하는 데 목적을 두고 있다. 그리고 연구의 결과 그래픽디자인은 이미 수학적인 계산 속에서 아름다운 비례를 찾고 있었다는 것을 발견할 수 있었다. 자연을 표현하는 가장 적합한 공식인 프랙탈 기하학은 앞으로 과학과 그래픽디자인의 복합체로서 고유성과 특수성의 고부가가치를 창출해야 한다. 이런 요구를 수용하고 변화에 적응 발전해야 하는 필요성이 대두되는 단계에서 본 연구의 의의가 크다고 하겠다.

The purpose of this study is to propose cognitive ecological effects of fractal patterns in space design. This study investigated the perception and cognition problems regarding landscape patterns showing fractal properties from the cognitive perspective instead of the traditional speculative approach. In particular, the researcher has verified that fractal geometry theory and fractal pattern concept provide insight in space aesthetic values and cognitive effects. Research results are as follows. First, most environmentally-friendly fractal urban forms provide cognitive connectivity. In particular, this space provides a positive emotional response and preference to humans and displays self-organized complexity. This study found that such complexity of space form has characteristics corresponding to parallel cognitive structures of the human brain. Simultaneously, the researcher suggests that the fractal landscape pattern is an alternative for stiff and homogenized modern space. Second, fractal patterns provide hierarchical connectivity within the brain through continuous difference and repetition. In particular, self-similarities of fractal patterns administer significant visual grouping and coherence in human perception. It can be determined whether scaling coherence facilitates easier organization in cognitive organization. Third, fractal patterns in space design provide the basic method for achieving the connection between concept, construction, and urban factors. As a result, the researcher has suggested that scale distribution of geometrical factors, such as fractal patterns, an be a design method to connect various space typologies.
