Fractals

I did some reading up on fractals and fractal geometry today. Fascinating subject.

Fractal is defined as a curve or geometric figure, each part of which has the same statistical character as the whole. Fractals are useful in modeling structures (such as eroded coastlines or snowflakes) in which similar patterns recur at progressively smaller scales, and in describing partly random or chaotic phenomena such as crystal growth, fluid turbulence, and galaxy formation.

What if everything in universe was explainable with a single mathematical formula?
