Never have I seen such a motley ; collection of fractal possibilities with so little organization. ; There are diamonds, spirals, shapeless fragments, and almost any- ; thing one could imagine scattered through the image. The name ; "Iterative Insanity" seems quite appropriate for such chaos. ; ; The parent fractal is the same Z^1.26+C Mandeloid of the past ; two FOTD's. To find today's image I went to the north branch of ; the most prominent valley of the parent, and dove down to a ; magnitude of a modest 1800. The 47-minute render time is a ; result of the unusually high iteration count of the elements of ; the image. ; ; Unable to decide whether I liked the image, I rated it at an ; average 5, which gives an overall value of 11 when adjusted for ; the render time. The most convenient way to see the scene is to ; download the finished GIF image from the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Near perfect weather both Thursday and Friday made for contented ; cats. With a repeat forecast for today, I expect more content- ; ment. I also expect to be working most of the day. So until ; next FOTD, take care, and when you have taken enough care, stop ; to have a little fun. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE================================ Iterative_Insanity { ; time=0:47:12.01--SF5 on a P200 reset=2003 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC2 passes=1 center-mag=-0.46559005566451/+0.6125030496022825/1\ 802.776 params=1.26/0/-70/100 float=y maxiter=25000 inside=0 logmap=260 periodicity=10 colors=000kHjjIjiJjhKjgQjfWjeajdgjcmjbnjboiapi`qi_\ riZsiYtiXuiWviVwiUxiUyiWwjXvjZuj_tj`rjbqjcpkdokfmk\ glkhkkjjkkhklglnfloelpclrblsalt`lsairbgqceqdcpeaof\ _ngYnhWmhUliSljQkkOjlMimKinIhoGgpEgpChmDhkDhiEifEi\ dEibFj_FjYFjWGkTGkRHkPHlMHlKIlIIlGIhEPdCV`BaX9gT8n\ P6tM5zP9yRCyTFyWIyYLx_OxbSxdVxfYwi`wkcwmfwoiwkdog`\ hdXa`SUXONUKGdIDoGAyE8wDAvCBuCDtBEsBFrAHpAIo9Kn9Lm\ 8Ml7Ok7Pi6Rh6Sg5Tf5Ve4Wd4XbBS`IOZPKXWFVbBTh7biAmjD\ mkGrlJemMYnPZoSZpV_qY`r``scatfbuicvlcwodxrejfezwZv\ rTrmNnhHjcBg_DeZEdYFcXHbWI`WJ_VKZUMYTNWTOVSQURRTQS\ RQTQPVPOWONXMNZLM_KL`JKaIKbHMcGNdGPeFQfFRfETgEUhDV\ iCXjCYjB_kB`lAamAcn9dn9eo8eo8eo8eo8eo8eo8do8do8do8\ do8do8do8do8co8co8co8cp7cp7cp7cq7br7bs7bt7bu7bv7bw\ 7bx7ax7ay7ay7bz7ez7hz7kz8nz8qzKtzNwzQzzSzzUzzWzzYz\ z_zzazzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzc\ zzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzcz } frm:MandelbrotBC2 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100 p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*floor(p/(2*PI)) r=real(p2)-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
