fractal: “a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced- size copy of the whole”.
fractal geometry: a mathematical model invented by Beniot Mandelbrot for approximating dimensional reality using recursive mathematical formulae.
John von Neumann – a Hungarian American mathematician – theorized a self-replicating machine that could be used to grid, and thus map, the universe.
Terence McKenna – environmentalist, writer, and ethno-botanist – believed that a working example of the von Neumann machine has existed for billions of years:
The fractal/dimension series is an exploration of the philosophical and mathematical underpinnings of n-dimensional reality.
