Fractals can be chaotic-having the charactersitic of sensitivity to change in intital conditions. Here are two examples of chaos.The first,a plain vanilla Mandelbrot zoom, has the chaotic nature of the artificial.The pattern while convoluted and serpentine is not noisy-it does not have randomness it because it is strongly self-similar.For example it is perfectly symmetrical. The second mimics natural chaos-it is superficially random. There is the hint of structure in the discernible spiral but it has the irregular variations of the natural world.
