Chaotica is a commercial fractal art editor and renderer extending flam3 and Apophysis's functionality.

[citation needed] Chaotica began as a personal project of Thomas E. Ludwig (lycium) in the deviantArt fractal community in 2010,[1] but has since been handed over to Glare Technologies, the developers of Indigo Renderer.

Chaotica implements a generalized iterated function system and features a modern[as of?]

rendering engine based on advanced algorithms not found in open-source IFS implementations.

[citation needed] It has an animation editor, selective randomization of parameters, and imaging controls such as different anti-aliasing modes and RGB-channel response curves.
