When you close your eyes, do you ever see Mandelbrot sets?

I know someone who sees this when they close their eyes, ever since they were little.

Does that make sense, do other ppl see this when they shut their eyes?

Yes I see that.

I thought that was normal lol.

I know someone who use to see the above image a lot, the inner color would get bigger and then disappear and re-appear on the peripheral.

The pic above with the lights on the side reminds of us what? Lightening!

And in real life, it usually happens in the dark, or dark clouds, doesn't it?

I always see weird colour patterns moving about like that second picture, whats your point?

I had Mandelbrot sets tattooed on the back of my eyelids

hell yeah

Yeah, I see those. ermm

when i did shrooms those patterns would be everywhere. the sky, the ground, walls, rugs..everything with any sort of texture.

i used to see that when i was young...mandlebrot fractals in nature are cool....most trees evolve a leave pattern that adheres to mandlebrot fractals because its and efficient was of having the maximum leaf area open to sunlight for photosythesis...thats why if look stand under a tree and look at u can hardly see any direct sunlight

there are more extreme examples in nature and i first came across them when a type of cabbage called romanesco came into a supermarket i work in

i've never seen those (which is moderatly dissapointing because they look amazing) but one time, when i was baked, i saw my thoughts in the form of little squares being sucked into a huge blue vortex when i closed my eyes... >_>
