oh... okay, i actually thought the problem were the bars themselves as it appears that instead of "melting" with the rest of the pattern they seem to be tacked onto the pattern itself.

Usually fractals have very smooth transitions and the few very specific angles they have are only very acute ones, possibly 0° ones as the angles tend to be zeroes in the function, and zeroes rarely make obtuse angles or non 0° angles, usually they are simple π fractions. Whereas the spirals join onto the bars with evidently obtuse angles that did not seem any simple π fraction, so it did not seem to have the proper angle for a fractal.

Only i could not say that because it is evident that the pattern itself (with the bands and all), is part of the fractals as it gets used constantly.

So i thought the problem might have been one of aliasing in the rendering. As in: a "depth" aliasing of the kind that usually gets solved via anisotropic sampling... as the finer patterns do tend to seem to give a repeating impression due to aliasing and so on... but that would not make sense as that kind of aliasing usually is *sought* for in fractal representation as it is usually seen "aesthetically pleasing", unlike most other rendering processes in which it is actively avoided... 

...and so i was completely wrong. 😅

Good to know. 👍
