Terdragon from the Chaos Game (visual fractal construction from iterated function system)
In this video, we show how to use a random process of iteratively applying three affine transformations in the real plane to generate a 3-rep-tile known as the Terragon. What happens if you do something similar with different affine linear transformations?
