However, as has been observed, the voting deadline is coming up fast and most people have not received their CDs yet, nor have downloadable files been made available. I can assure everyone that this has been for a variety of good reasons, but the details would likely bore everyone here. CDs are being made and sent, and I've posted downloadable versions of the contest site here: http://www.fractalus.com/contest99/download.htm The site may be downloaded in a single 76M gulp, or as several smaller files. Due to the delay in getting CDs and download packs out, I want to extend voting one more week. I know people are anxious to see the results, but this seems like the fairest thing to do for people who have waited for their CD or downloadable site before trying to cast votes. It took me several hours of looking through images to make my decisions, I don't expect anyone to finish the job in one sitting (although if they do that's great). Damien M. Jones \\ dmj@fractalus.com \\ Fractalus Galleries & Info: \\ http://www.fractalus.com/ Please do not post my e-mail address on a web site or in a newsgroup. Thank you.

It really seems like Oldfield's leit motif... but drunk ;-) And growth has a rhythm that accompanies the tidal waves that this fractal generates.

I am a lover of art and fractal beauty. As I write, my Windows is downloading the contest images. It will be a few more hours downloading on the weak phone line connection I have to the internet. I have encouraged a friend next door to view the pictures, and he will probably vote, as I will as soon as I can make a valid judgement (Of course I'll have to see them all.) I am in Astoria, Oregon, a small town at the mouth of the mighty Columbia River. I thought that thousands must have seen the images and voted by now. How many people have? Only a few? I am sharing the contest address with my mother in Alaska who is an artist and will be a good judge. Aloha to you all and especially those who give selflessly their energy to encourage the creativity happening here. Life is good. Hallelujah! Some awesome music there, Fliguer.

Well, as nearly as I can tell, thousands *have* visited the site. But fewer than one hundred have voted so far. No doubt the sheer size of the contest, and the amount of work involved in choosing image, deters people from voting. I do what I can to make it easier, and I do have some thoughts for next year.

No, I didn't compile it -- it didn't occur to me that it needed to be compiled (silly me). Anyway, I've never compiled any linux stuff, although the compiler is on my system. Can you give me a hint as to what the command line might look like? I've used other compilers (Pascal, Basic, MASM, etc.), so the concept is not totally foreign to me.

Date: 09 Oct 1999 10:34:25 -0400 I have noticed in v.20 that at times I obtain the corruption indicative of not having the line "textsafe=save" - or safe, on loading an image. This can occur either loading an image as a par or from a gif. An example of the sequence is usually similar to the following: The image was saved (s) - fract059. After exiting I went back to fractint v.20, opened it, used (r) to load the image. Then obtained the "z" screen for the information. I then hit escape as first step to backing out of fractint. This returns to the image. The image was corrupt in the nature of not having "text safe=safe" - horizontal lines through it ~ 3/16" wide. I saved the image as a par to give an example, but on leaving fractint, returning to recheck the par to insure it showed the corruption, the image came up fine! I repeated the steps above, this time no corruption, and in fact it does not always replicate. My sstools.ini is the same as I used in fractint v.19.6 having the barest minimum. This is being done out of a dos box instead of straight dos. Is this a bug or do I need to edit my sstools.ini some more? Or not run v.20 via the dos box as I did v.19.6/ NOTE: The formula file indicated in the par is listed as carlson.frm. I am not sure where in the orgfrm collection 3DStalks_Pokorny resides; this file is from an email Paul Carlson posted to the list quite sometime ago.

The compilation is fully Fractint v20 compliant. Hundreds of formulas "broken" by the tougher error checking routines of the v20 parser code ha= ve been rewritten so they will work under the new Fractint release. Note that v20 allows for placing your orgform files (i.e. those in the fo= rm _*.frm) in a separate directory, which will be searched by the program wh= en looking for a formula. This will significantly reduce the time it takes Fractint to find a formula. Formula authors should check the compilation to make sure all their formulas which they want included have in fact made it in. If I have miss= ed some, please send me the formulas or let me know where I can go to get them, and I'll include them in the next release.

First, I read a book called "the Fourth Dimension." It has some interesting philosphical ideas such as predestination and the meaning of the universe. His idea of infinite dimensions reminds me of Carl Sagan's "Cosmos," where the writer speculates if there are an infinite regression of universes within universes. (The Edge of Forever, Cosmos) Maybe the Universe is fractal and the Horned sphere (which I think is a fractal) can exist.

I've had some advice from other NG subscribers. This post gives the latest state-of play. I really could use some more of your assistance on this as nothing anyone else has suggested has moved me much further forward. I'm now getting overloaded with info - some of it conflicting! Below is a copy of my latest response to another NG. You should find it self-explanatory. Anything you can add to resolve some of my queries would be welcomed. > "Thanks for the response - but could I trouble you a little further, please? > Try going to the ESS website and downloading the dos program for the > sound card. The dos program will enable the sound card in DOS, and make > the changes in the dos configuration files. I had already done this but it loads the following line into config.sys DEVICE=C:\ESS\ES1868.COM /A:0 /I:0. Now, I do not have this file ES1868.com, consequently when booting an error message occurs. I have been unable to find such a file, or any mention of it anywhere on the web. Another correspondent suggested that the config.sys entry should be deleted. Either way, I still get no sound! > Windows does this by itself. However, when exiting from Windows, and > restarting into dos mode, the machine reads a file called > c:/windows/dosstart.bat.

If I want to start in dos from boot up and then access Fractint20, I will have to run c:\windows\dosstart.bat before the sound card will work? I think I can live without that as Fractint20 runs perfectly well when invoked from within it's own folder (except for the problem with the sound card). > It is possible to have a misconfigured set blaster environment variable which > indicates values different than those which the initialization utility actually > set.

The esscfg.exe writes the MPU-401 ref as "B"330. All the text I have read and when running SET from MSDOS indicates "P"330.

Use the Source, Luke... or, reverse engineer. Notice that it says 768 characters. That is exactly three times 256 the number of colors. It seems, then, that it stores each color as a three character code. What's more, each character probably represents one component, red, green, and blue.

I guess you can call them Natural (for white keys) and Chromatical (for black ones). Black keys over the keyboard augment or diminish the scale in half a tone with respect to the relative "value" that white keys have. So if you have a D white key (in a piano), the black key to its left diminish its value in half a tone, converting it into D bemol (or "flat"); and the black key to its right augment its value in half a tone too, so we have D#, or sustained. I think that we can use some kind of "indoors" language about Music Pars, and maybe we can borrow it from its mother... or just create it ourselves, as long as this is a completely new field (at least it is for me:))) ). I can explain this technical stuff in Spanish but I don't know how to translate them exactly.

In general the Althon significantly outperforms a PIII running at the same clock speed, and if you count the cost of buying motherboards their prices are close to equivalent, maybe slightly less for the Althon. However, you do need to _find_ an Althon motherboard, which can be harder than it should be. I'm upgrading to an Althon 600 or 650 as soon as the Via chipset for them, supporting a 133Mhz bus and AGP4x and other goodies, comes out, but who knows how long that'll take...

I concur with Ian Kaplan, the Athlon should outperform an equivalently-clocked P-III. However, these chips are tuned for 32-bit performance, and FractInt is still a 16-bit DOS app. (Don't knock the developers, they all volunteer their time and they do know what direction FractInt needs to go.) So the performance difference *for FractInt* will probably not be as much as one might expect. Damien M.

I think a "thumbnail" could be developed, based on a fragment of the "melody". But what about file formats ? WAV ? MP3 ? MIDI ? How could you get a MIDI file from the audio output ? (maybe on fractint V21...) Hope to hear your thoughts on this topic. Alright, enough talkin' and move to the beat !!!

If you use *only* black keys, the resulting musical scale is called pentatonic, and it is the one used by the quechuas in Bolivia and north of Argentina. It results in sweeter sounds than the "natural" or diatonic major scale.

I just compiled xfractint 3.10 on Redhat 6.0. In general it workes OK (apart from problems with colordepths other than 8bit, but I was told that this a known bug). Now my problem: I can't get into the menu corner parameters from neither 'type-specific parms' nor from 'select fractal type'. F6 or shift-6 just don't do anything although I can get the help screen with shift-1 and the 'Top Secret Developer's Screen' with shift-6 from 'info about image'. Does anyone know how to solve this?

A midi file would be quite possible but, since midi does not have a set of sound controls which correspond to the current low level FM control, getting anything sounding the same would be a bit hit and miss.

Well. at least no one would claim that we are plagiarizing songs :) But in the event that we can fill up a CD with them... Could we make a contest based upon these? Or some sort of Chart, like Billboard, with "hits" parade and the like? I mean, we had fractal music before (at least I knew about it), but we can have a duo here: fractal art and music, all in one, with people voting their favorites... Will we have "bands", say FrankTal and the Mandels, who will perform their fractunes alive? Do you think it's a dream? Who would dare? :)) Nice weekend :) @le PS: Ricardo, you were most right.

Jones" Subject: (fractint) Expected downtime for contest site Date: 23 Oct 1999 18:11:42 -0500 Greetings folks, As some of you know, I am leaving my current position at Rock River Internet, where I've been for the past two years. Ordinarily I would not bother anyone with the personal details of my life, but in this case it might affect some net resources of interest to you. :-) For quite some time now, Rock River Internet and its parent company ICD have graciously permitted me to run the Fractal-Art, Ultra Fractal, and PhiloFractal mailing lists, and also to run fractalus.com and the Infinite Fractal Loop. They have even permitted me to host the contest web sites (no small drain on net resources, I might add). Knowing that I was leaving, I have over the past three months moved almost all of my net resources over to my own server. I plan to take this server with me to my new job, where I have already arranged to be able to set the server up. So things will continue right where they left off. Now, for the only reason I bring this up: my new position is in Orlando, FL. That's roughly 1500 miles (2400km) from Rockford, IL. :-) Driving halfway across the US is going to take me a few days, and in that time, none of fractalus.com will be functional. All of those things I mentioned will be temporarily unavailable, but will return as they were before (or slightly improved). Please note, during the downtime, *no* messages to the lists run from fractalus.com will go through; in fact, you can expect them to bounce back to you. I'll post an announcement to the lists when they're back up. The approximate downtime will be from Monday morning until Thursday evening, US time. Contest results will be posted to the web site after I arrive, but I'll post them to the fractal mailing lists tomorrow afternoon. Damien M. Jones \\ dmj@fractalus.com \\ Fractalus Galleries & Info: \\ http://www.fractalus.com/ Please do not post my e-mail address on a web site or in a newsgroup. Thank you.
