I played around with recursive circle inversions this weekend. A circle inversion is like a reflection in a mirror, except the mirror is curved. I start out with a small set of tangent circles, then repeatedly reflect all the circles in each other. The fractal results can be pretty dramatic...
Lots of {3,infinity} hyperbolic tessellations floating around!
If you like these images, I highly recommend the book Indra's Pearls.
