Seems to be nothing more than an ad for a book? Also, these things are usually called “Space-filling curves” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-filling_curve).

EDIT: I missed the “Read Online” link - it is indeed a whole book about space-filling curves with lots of pictures.

Well, it looks like a nice book and you can read it online or download it (there's a link at the top). The "Brainfilling" title is probably a pun to make the title more interesting.

And with it's big colorful pictures it would make a great and nerdy cofee table book.

Nice, I forgot to search for alternate sources. It's a very nice gallery (with some maths too) of fractals, I'd be happy to have other sources for more complex and recent knowledge about them.

Geeky concepts illustrated using squirrels and nuts, what else does one need?
