If you want to place fractal art as a desktop background or take geometric patterns to another level, we at NeoTeo have prepared a list of the five best programs for generating fractal art. All you need is a series of images for the platforms to perform fractal art. Once you finish, you can export the fractal art in the most popular image formats, such as PNG, JPEG, etc.
Fraqtive
We start with Fraqtive, a Mandelbrot and Julia fractal art generator. Using the platform is very simple: just use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out on the image and the utility will generate the fractal at the zoom location. Fractals are generated in just a few seconds and you can export them in JPG, BMP, TIFF, PPM, and PNG. Fraqtive is a free program available for Windows and Linux operating systems.
Mandelbulber
Mandelbulber is a fractal art generator that supports several 3D models (Mandelbulb, Bulbbox, Mandelbox, Juliabulb, etc.). But its disadvantage is the delay in making the models. The environment has an interface with many options, which will give the fractals a professional finish. Once done, you can export in JPG, PNG, TIFF, and PNG (16-bit). Mandelbulber is a free program available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux operating systems.
XaoS
We continue with XaoS, one of the simplest options for generating fractal art. Although it has few tools, they will allow you to apply filters and effects to create Mandelbrot, Newton, Octal fractal models, etc. XaoS is a free program available for Windows and Mac OS X operating systems.
Mandelbrot Fractal
Mandelbrot Fractal is a fractal art generator that works differently from the platforms on the list. You only have to download its source code from GitHub (it is JavaScript-based), extract it on your computer, and then run the 'index.html' file. This action will open the environment in your default web browser and from its interface you can create fractal art with very good finishes. Mandelbrot Fractal is a free program.
ChaosPro
We will finish with ChaosPro, a fractal art generator that generates fractal patterns by zooming in and out on the image with the mouse wheel. Although the environment does not have any standout tool, we can highlight its left side menu, from which you can customize the fractals. ChaosPro is a free program available for Windows operating systems.
With the five free programs to create fractal art, you can give free rein to your psychedelia.
