# Prerequisites
Fractal Mosaics is implemented in Matlab. You’ll need a copy of Matlab with the Signal Processing toolbox installed (any version should work, most should come with the Signal Processing toolbox).

# Getting Started
1. Download the demo example ([zip](https://github.com/s-ben/Fractal-Mosaics/raw/gh-pages/code/fractal_mosaics.zip), [tgz](https://github.com/s-ben/Fractal-Mosaics/raw/gh-pages/code/fractal_mosaics.tgz)). This has all the code you need. Simply modify the example to create your own mosaics.

2. Download the [example image set](https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_2ApIVBvXm1RlFjTmVwUXRIcms/edit?usp=sharing) (706 MB database of greyscale images of San Francisco).
3. Unpack zip file with images into the /library_images folder in the demo example.
3. Unpack the zip file containing the example image set and copy its contents into the /library_images folder in the demo example.
4. Navigate to the /m-files directory
5. Run ‘fractal_mosaic.m’

WARNING: it takes a long time to render a mosaic (~6 to 8 hrs on my macbook pro). If you want to optimize it, please do ;)
The demo example creates a black and white mosaic. This is because color takes ~3X as long. To create a color mosaic, download the [color image set](https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_2ApIVBv Xm1ckhjX3RibVVPdkk/edit?usp=sharing), and set Fractal Mosaics to color mode (see the [Variables](https://github.com/s-ben/Fractal-Mosaics/wiki/Variables) page for info on this).
