@GregCocks Wow that'd been great to mention on my last week talk about fractals, when I mentioned fractal features on maps and coast-lines!
@gwidion I am sure you mentioned the case in England that was the 'basis' of fractal map... and There is an island in Inuit territory of Canada that is a lake on an island that is... 5 deep... I posted about it a few months ago... 🙃
@GregCocks
Actually it was a bit of an informal talk - as I rmembered something about "coastal England", what I did was zooming live on G. maps on Brazil southeastern coast, and then Scotland - the point was clearly visible!
@gwidion Pretty famous - for good reason - and still fascinating, the coastline paradox 🙃
