1.C. Initiators and Generators

Gaskets with rotations

Here is an example involving a rotation of one part of the initiator.
Note that rotating the lower left corner rotate the lower left corner on each successive step.
In particular, note what happens to the lower left corner of the lower left corner of the lower left corner of the ... .
Click the picture to start the iteration.
Changing the amount of the rotation produces a sequence of spinning fractals. Click the picture to start the rotation.
Rotating the lower left and lower right triangles of the generator by the same amounts counterclockwise and clockwise produces this sequence of spinning fractals, a fractal kaleidoscope. Click the picture to start the rotation.
