This watch face contains an implementation of the famous Mandelbrot algorithm.

Features of this implementation are:

- Choose from the resolutions Full, 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8

- The image is iteratively rendered in several passes starting from the lowest resolution 1/8

- Choose from the color paletts RYGCBM, RGB, All, Monochrome, Light, Dark, Rotate, Red, Green, ...

- Pan/Zoom to random positions or continously zoom into an image

- Choose adaptive or fixed number maximum iterations

Note that rendering a Mandelbrot image is a computational expensive task.

That is why this iterative process takes a lot of time.

On AMOLED devices like the Epix2 set the display timeout to "Always On" (in the system settings)

to avoid restarting the rendering process whenever the watch switches to low power mode.

Here is an online implementation as a reference.
