Standing between two parallel mirrors in a barber shop does not
produce a fractal image. But if the mirrors are round, and if there are
enough of them, fractals do appear. |
First, assemble the base of the tetrahedron |
 |
Now, place the fourth ornament on the top of the
base, and look at the gap between the ornaments. |

Use folders to differentiate regions by color |
 |
Use a laser pointer to investigate the basin
boundaries.

Here are some examples from David Sweet's website. |

Thanks to Dane Camp for pointing out this excellent example.
More detail and some interesting connections are in his paper "Reflecting on Wada basins:
some fractals with a twist" in
Frame and Mandelbrot. |
