I ; have named the image "A Tangle of Points" because it reminds me ; of a tangle of vines. It is part of the larger fractal that is ; created when portions of Z^(-0.8) and Z^(-7.5) are combined and ; (1/C) is added. ; ; The image has been 'evaporated', and therefore consists totally ; of 'inside' points made visible by the 'bof61' inside fill. ; Other fills might have done better, but I had no chance to try ; them. ; ; The rating of 3 and render time of 7 minutes combine into an ; overall value of 41. All this becomes meaningless when the ; completed image is downloaded from the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Clouds hung tough all day Wednesday here at Fractal Central. ; Combined with occasional light rain and a temperature of 82F ; 28C, the lack of sun kept the fractal cats safely ensconced ; indoors. They were only mildly annoyed however, and spent the ; afternoon sleeping by the window. Today is again starting ; cloudy, but at least it is dry. The cats are still sleeping. ; It is too early to predict what kind of day they will have. ; ; As usual, I have a lot of work to do. Unless the unexpected ; happens, the next FOTD will appear here in 24 hours. Until ; then, take care, and where is the world going, other than ; around the sun? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE================================ A_Tangle_of_Points { ; time=0:07:17.42--SF5 on a P200 reset=2003 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+15.30615106164459000/+1.23468727139517\ 000/5.37212e+009/1/157.5/-0.00641920475950448488 params=1/-0.8/0.2/-7.5/0/1e+100 float=y maxiter=750 inside=bof61 periodicity=10 colors=000r_IvbYydmwcjvbgtbesabq``p`Yn_Wm_TlZQjYOi\ YLgXJfWGdWEcVBbV9_REXOIULMRIQOEULBYI8aF5eEAbEF`EJZ\ EOXETVEXTEaREfPEjNEoLEtJExH7vZ0tp4sf8rYCqPGqGQ0YT0\ ZV0_Y0``0ab0be0cg0dj0el0fo0gq0go3cm5`k7Yi9VgBSeDPc\ FMgBTj7_n3fq0mm6kjBjfHhcMg`SeXXdUbbRgaNm_KrZHwY9va\ 2vd6rd9ndCjdFfdJbdMZdPWdSSdVOdZKdaGddCdg8dj5dh9cgD\ cfHceLcdPccTbbXba_b`cb_gbZkaYoaXsaWwaVzahzLuz4sx6r\ w7qu8ot9nrAmqBgjJbcRYYZSRfNKnIEuPNlVVdUU`TTXSSUSRQ\ RQNQPJPOGPNCOM9NL5NL2SSDWZN_eXY`TWWQURNSMKQHHOCEM8\ BKGEIOGGWIEcKCkMAsO8zQDvPIrONnNSkMXgLacKf_JjXJX_UJ\ bd5do6ap6_q6Yr7Wr7Us7St8Qt8Ou8Lv9Jv9Hw9FxADxAByA9z\ A7z9Hl8RZ7`L6j78g6Ae5Bb5D`4EY4GW3HT3JR2KO2MM1NK1PJ\ 5QJ8RJBSJFUIIVILWIPXISZHV_HZ`HaaHd_GfZFgYFhWEiVEjU\ DlTDmRCnQCoPBpOBrMAsLAtK9uJ9v_LAZG8ZB6_E5_G5_J4`L4\ `N4`Q3aS3aV2aX2bZ2ba1bc1cf0ch0cj0ek1gk1ik2jk2lk2nk\ 3ok3qk4sk4tk4rg3qc3o_2nX2 } frm:MandelbrotMix4 {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(-a*b*g*h)^j, k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE================================== ; ;
