Bridging Fractals and Thought
…the fractal dimension.
🧩 Drawing from chaos theory and graph theory, Neurite unveils the hidden patterns and intricate connections that shape creative thinking.
For over two years we’ve been iterating out a virtually limitless workspace that blends the mesmerizing complexity of fractals with contemporary mind-mapping technique.
📢 Major Update: Neurite Desktop
The Mandelbrot Set is not just an aesthetic choice – fractal logic is ingrained into a countless number of natural and constructed phenomena – from polynomial equations, to art and music – even the cosmic web. 🌀 Fractals act as the cross-disciplinary framework for non-integer dimensional thought – where conventional notions of 4D spacetime are put into question. The goal of this project is to grow agentic graphs of fractal creativity & collaboration. |

Nodes represent text, images, videos, code, and AI agents. Together, they thread a personalized microcosm of your thoughts and inspirations. 🔭. neurite.network connects physics simulation of graphs with an underlying fractal topology to kinematically define interactive, iterative, and modular graphs of ideation. |
Complexity Inspires Simplicity / Basins Attract
Whether you’re a researcher, writer, artist, developer, educator, or simply a curious thinker, Neurite offers a departure from the conventional interface. It’s an interactive landscape tracing your ever-branching pathways of thought.
Movements through the fractal are no longer interrupted at each step. Instead, the rendering persists and regenerates as you interact…
neurite.network is unique in its ability to seamlessly navigate the Mandelbrot set in real time! 🚀

Experimental Update: Function Calling PanelThis feature is a terminal that allows you to execute Neurite’s code from within Neurite itself. Included with the function calling panel update is our Neural API. The Neural API is a growing collection of existing features within Neurite, made for sequencing animations of function calls. The current features include:
You can call on GPT to construct the sequences of function calls itself. It has access to the documentation. For the current documentation, try calling the below from within the function panel:
The current Neural API documentation will display in your call history for the function calling panel as well as in your browser console. There will be more information on this soon. This is a new feature in the initial release. |
