  • The temperature changes hour to hour and day to day; exchange rates behave no differently. Wherever studies of the variability of similar one-dimensional time series are concerned, analyses based on multifractals have managed to gain recognition.

The article from MSN discusses a study published in the journal *Chaos* by the American Institute of Physics, which uses advanced mathematical tools to analyze the works of Jackson Pollock, focusing on his drip paintings. Researchers employed 2D multifractal analysis to explore the complexity and structure within Pollock's seemingly chaotic art. This method helps in understanding how Pollock's technique evolved over time, particularly noting changes in his painting style after 1950, which might reflect his personal struggles or artistic development. The study not only provides insights into Pollock's creative process but also suggests that such mathematical analysis could be applied to authenticate artworks or understand the artistic process in other artists' works.
