It must have been created by UFOs. I demand that a multispectrum soil analysis be made so that I can seize upon any anomaly whatsoever as support for my hypothesis.

I don't have a Facebook account, and got blocked trying to browse his Facebook pages, so I couldn't tell whether he gave credit where credit's due. But either way, it's a wonderfully original medium in which to render the set. A little bent, but yes…that’s clearly an outline of the Mandelbrot set (or a reasonable facsimile thereof, anyway :) ).
