History

Chaotica began as a personal project of Thomas Ludwig in the deviantArt fractal community in 2010 [1], but has since been handed over to Glare Technologies, the developers of Indigo Renderer.

Features

Chaotica implements a generalized iterated function system and features a modern rendering engine based on advanced algorithms not found in open-source IFS implementations.[2] It has an animation editor, selective randomization of parameters, and imaging controls such as different anti-aliasing modes and RGB-channel response curves.
