VisualMathArt Series 9

This is Series 9 of VisualMathArt. The series visualises the Apollonian gasket. The fractal starts with three circles tangent to each other. A bigger circle is drawn enclosing the three circles and the empty spaces in between are filled with smaller circles tangent to each other. New circles are drawn in the empty spaces and are not allowed to intercect other circles, creating the Apollonian gasket. The curvature of the circles is computed using Descartes' theorem. This collection includes various starting positions and sizes of the three circles, creating variations of the fractal, and everything is randomly coloured. No graphics editor has been used. I hope you derive pleasure and inspiration from Series 9 and what mathematics can visualise.
