Description
The obsession of the alchemist with gold (chryosopoeia) in some ways led to the evolution of modern science with trial and error and meticulous record keeping used to document each new attempt to convert lead into gold. This fractal portrays the crucible used to melt metals and create alloys used as the base for the miraculous transformation of a base metal into noble gold. The task was never accomplished until modern science and applied physics learned to fuse metals and metal isotopes at the atomic level and truly create gold through atomic transmutation at enormous expense and incredible difficulty.
