Processing Code:

float x = 0.1; float y = 0.1; float a = -0.5318; float b = 2.785; float c = 2.685; float d = -0.9887; int h = 800; int w = 800; size(h,w); background(255); for(int i=0;i < 1000000;i++){ x = sin(a*x) + c*sin(a*y); y = sin(b*x) + d*sin(b*y); } for(int i=0;i < 1000000;i++){ stroke(0); point( (w/6) * (x+ 3) ,(h/6) * (y + 3)); x = sin(a*x) + c*sin(a*y); y = sin(b*x) + d*sin(b*y); }

You can play with the a, b, c, and d variables to generate different pretty pictures.
