Celebrating exceptional teaching at UNCA
past, present, and future.

Dr. Devaney generated the mathematical definition of CHAOS. In this lecture he will describe some of the beautiful images that arise from the “Chaos Game”. The simple steps of this game produce, when iterated millions of times, the intricate images known as FRACTALS. He will also describe some of the applications of this technique used in data compression as well as in Hollywood. The audience will be challenged to play “Beat the Professor” at the chaos game and maybe win his computer.
