Like Barry Martin's 'Hopalong' fractal, this dynamical system from John Connett was first published in Scientific American in 1986. This demo is interactive: successively clicking two points specifies a rectangle to zoom into. Doing so, you'll see that the system isn't actually a fractal. Instead of self-similarity, deep zooms reveal peacock-like images.
