Usually applied to computer software or a system that's a mess at every level. The more you investigate the problem, the more problems turn-up in a seemingly never-ending fractal of shit.
"This entire system was written by retards. It's just shit, built on shit, built on shit. It's a shit-fractal."

Get the shit-fractal mug.Fractal Art is digital art made with fractal software, such as Apophysis, or Tierazon. The programs plot the fractal on a graph, and then colors in parts of it that you tell it to. This is why fractal rt is digital art.
Some people (idiots) decide right off the bat that fractal art isn't art, even though it, as well as other art, has the ability to effect people's emotions, and it takes a creative mind to make it look good. It's art whether you like it or not. (Besides, if a man pooping in a can and selling it on eBay is art, why not this?)
Fractal art is very trippy looking. It is thought that only hippies love it, and while this may be true for the majority, there are plenty of people who aren't on drugs who also love to look at fractal art.

A fractal is an extremely complex geometric form consisting of smaller copies of itself repeating across (theoretically) infinitely smaller scales, the whole a development of a disarmingly simple mathematical formula. When a fractal is fed into a computer that is also programmed to cycle the colours of the visual spectrum through the pattern, the result can be pleasantly trippy.

Get the fractalicious mug.Fractal marketing is the process by which a product or service is promoted through modern electronic media and is subsequently picked up and scattered by potential consumers.
Whereas viral marketing presupposes that a consumer is infected with the intended message, fractal marketing reflects that the consumer modifies the message: it's still part of the snowflake's pattern, just a unique piece of it.

An example of fractal marketing would be Apple's Switch campaign of 2002 and Ellen Feiss's subsequently marketed web identity. They are affiliated, they are part of the same pattern, but this outcome could not be predicted by Apple.
