Fractal flames is such a cool algorithm. They're what got me into programming many moons ago :)

Oh wow, it really has been many moons! You might recall a guy called lycium/lyc from those days :D

We're lurking on Discord these days, there are some new people from Austria sometimes joining our meetups, you should come along :)

Got a link to that Discord group?

Do you remember the email you sent me 12 years and 1 month ago, in which (among much other unhinged stuff) you called me a nazi because I mentioned I'm (part) German? I remembered your name; hello again! I see your project didn't go anywhere, that's too bad. I'm sure you'll understand if I decline to invite you to my Discord server :)

Haha hey lyc! I didn't forget, you guys were second family! You taught me a lot about maths and code, not sure where I'd be without you :) Learnt more while messing around with fractals and gfx than in all my time at uni.

Honestly I try not doing much computer stuff in my free time because I'm doing so much in my day to day but I'll stop by some time! I've been in the Chaotica discord for years but never said hello.

That's kind of you to say, and I'd love to meet up sometime just for the lolz, it's really far too close (with lots of other cool fractal ppl nearby) not to :)
