My Bio

This is my primary account. It is primarily devoted to raw fractals. My other account (www.deviantart.com/isubmit) is devoted to fractal manipulations.


I am of the opinion that I do not really make anything. I use software (mainly Fractal Explorer and Frax) to 'find' interesting and artistic fractals. I know tricks that help me discover engaging starting points, and then more tricks to transform that initial thing that caught my interest, into something I find even more pleasing. I then try to attach interesting titles to the images - one that is appropriate. I always try to post something different than I posted the day before, and the day before that...I'm not sure what I do is 'art', but the process pleases me, and a few people seem to like the end product.


I am also a professional musician and songwriter. Honestly, this is my first love. To date, I have written more than 3000 songs that span many music genres. I am currently working on an album that will be produced by two time Grammy winner, Greg Wells. The album should be ready mid-2024. If interested, please check out my YouTube page (listed in the section above). There is a wide variety of my original music posted there.

NFT requests

Please stop contacting me about NFT's.


For quite some time now, I have been getting a few NFT, or business proposal requests, a day. I just delete them.


Please know that I am NOT INTERESTED in NFT's, or getting in to business with a total stranger on the internet.


Furthermore, it is also frustrating - that even though this blurb has been posted on my homepage for a while now - I am still getting these requests. So you are not even reading my homepage? Or you are reading it, and don't care about my request, and send me a note/chat any way?


Either way, up front, and if you are reading this - I'm not interested.

Post Spotlight

Many of you may not know that my first love has always been music. More to the point - songwriting. To date, I have written more than 3000 songs. Recently, one of my songs ("If You Know About Love"), won a songwriting contest. I won a free recording of the song; and then the song was sent on to 6X Grammy nominated, and 2X winning producer - Greg Wells - at his LA studio, to be mixed/mastered. The finished song falls in to a Folk or Country category (but please know I write songs across several genres of music). This all has prompted me to go back in to the studio, to complete an album (I'll post something when this is completed). If you are interested, you can listen to "If You Know About Love" here (by Mark Beatty): https://donskuce.com/contest-winners/#5
