The Beauty of Roots.
John C. Baez, J. Daniel Christensen, and Sam Derbyshire.
Considers Littlewood polynomials (each coefficient is +/-1), & patterns that arise from plotting the set of all roots for a particular degree. Figures are plots on the complex plane, the pixel intensity ∝ the # of roots at that point. Plots resemble a unit circle w/ fractal patterns at the circle’s boundary.
