Personal background
The picture represents the methematical Mandelbrot set that I created with a program that I have developped on my PC. Like in SETI, I enjoy exploring various areas of the Madlebrot set. It's my favorite hobby.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
"In the Mandelbrot set, nature (or is it mathematics?) provides us with a powerful visual counterpart of the musical idea 'theme and variation': the same shapes are repeated everywhere, yet each repetition, is somewhat different. It would have been impossible to discover this property of iteration if we had been reduced to hand calculation, and I think that no one would have been sufficiently bright to invent, this rich and complecated theme and variations. It leaves us no way to become bored, because new things appear all the time, and no way to become lost, because familiar things come back time and time again...." by Benoit Mandelbrot.

I think that there are great similarities about fractales and our universe. As fractales, there is no way you get bored searching in our universe because new things appear all the time. Yet no way to get lost, because familiar things come back again and again. And there is the repetition aspect, a repetition of earth, the solar system and why not life... Yet we should expect that each repetition to be somewhat different.
