Jonathn Coulton is a somewhat unique singer/song writer...
He has a song about code monkeys [2] and apparently
one about the mandelbrot set! [1]

*/
Just take a point called Z in the complex plane
Let Z1 be Z squared plus C
And Z2 is Z1 squared plus C
And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on
If the series of Z's should always stay
Close to Z and never trend away
That point is in the Mandelbrot Set
*/

Interesting methinks.

Oh, and (most of) his music is available under a creative commons license.
