Abstract

Scott Draves has used seven variations of affine transformations in his pioneering work on fractal flames. These are linear, sinusoidal, spherical, swirl, horseshoe, polar and bent. In this paper we use average of two such transformations on escape time fractals to produce skyscapes similar to expansion of galaxies.
