[Fractint] multifractals

I have an idea what multifractals are, but are not sure if I am correct. -david Is a multifractal a fractal like object which scaling is also fractal? The Sierpinski triangle has a scaling factor of 2/3. In a multifractal, the scaling factor will vary depending on where the point is in the Sierpinski triangle. That means a sierpinski with a scaling of sierpinski, a fractal of a fractal. Or a cantor set with its stretching factor based on the cantor set? How about the Julibrot, where every layer is a different julia set? How about zooming into a sierpinski triangle where each point is a koch snowflake where each point is a sierpinski triangle? -david
