@chalcedony this one is just a classic z -> z^2+c, but it doesn't use iteration count, it uhh

basically the iteration records how close the orbit gets to zero on each axis and then returns a complex number representing that information, and i turn that number into coordinates from which to sample a texture

this is the texture i used for this image: cdn.discordapp.com/attachments
