The purpose of this project was to generate a solid analog of the Koch Snowflake by extending its usual two dimensional construction into three dimensions. I chose to implement everything in Mathematica for this project, more to brush up on my Mathematica skills than for any other reason. The following images show a few levels of the approximation of the fractal, starting from the regular tetrahedron. The middle and right columns show the same progression from different viewing angles. The left column shows only the edges from the triangles in the middle column. There's a download link for the Mathematica notebook at the bottom of the page.
