Believe it or not, ; this is what I received a day or so ago. At least the sender ; did not try to convince me that I had won a fractal lottery that ; I had never entered. ; ; I named today's image "SCA". I leave it to the fractalist to ; decide what the letters stand for. Two possible things are ; 'small craft advisory' and 'sickle-cell anemia', neither of ; which has much to do with fractals. ; ; What *does* have something to do with fractals is the formula ; Z^(1.5)+C as it appears 555 levels up the endless logarithmic ; ladder. The Mandeloid at this level is little more than a ; roughly circular bay, with few buds that might add interest, but ; its Julia sets are far more interesting. ; ; Today's image is the Julia set of an inconspicuous valley of the ; Mandeloid. It is a rather unique image, shaped something like a ; comma turned sideways, which is why I decided to give it a kind ; of name and a rating of 7. ; ; The calculation time of under 3 minutes will make running the ; included parameter file an easy task. Those who do not or can ; not run Fractint parameter files may see the image by downloading ; it from the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; A slightly milder temperature of 41F 5C and a partly cloudy sky ; here at Old Fractal Central on Tuesday were not quite enough to ; please the fractal cats, who were outside only a few minutes ; before coming in to ask for extra tuna. My days continue incred- ; ibly busy, but not so busy as to preclude fractals. The next ; FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and the ; world may exist only in the mind, but if so, where is the mind? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= SCA { ; time=0:02:42.14--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=JuliaBC passes=1 center-mag=0.144306/\ -0.216718/1.289431/1/-137.5/-6.32272012524027e-014 params=1.5/0/555/0/0.0068/0.1961/0/0 float=y maxiter=350 inside=255 logmap=yes periodicity=10 colors=0009AICCJFEKIGLJIMLKNNMOPOPRQQTSRVUSXWTZYU`\ _VbaWecTgdRlfQofQrhOuiOwkNylNznLwoLxqKysKztIzvIzxH\ zyHzzGzzGzyEzxDzvBztAzq9zo7xn6tl4qk7nkAkkDikGhkIfk\ LdkOckRakV`kYZk`Yic`ifciihilkionisqivviyyizzizzizz\ lzznvzqqzslzvhzxczzZzzVzzQzzLzzHzzDzzGzzIzxKzsNznQ\ ziRzdVz`WzWZzRazNczIfzEhzAkz6nz1oz0sz0tz1szAqzHozQ\ nzYnxflvoksxiozhnzhkzdizcfz`dzZcxY`tVZqTYnRVkOThNQ\ dKOaINYHKVEIRDHOBEL9DI7AG49D27A1870A40C10E40G60I92\ KB4MD7OF9QHBSJDULEWNHYPI_RLaTNcVQeXRgZSi`TkaUdhVZl\ TTtQNzOmzLmzKHzGLoDQcAVQ7ZE4c41o00h00a01W04Q26K69D\ AB7DD1GG0II0KK0LK0NL0ON0OO0QQ0QQ0RR0RT0TV0TW0VW0WY\ 0WZ0Y`0Ya0Za0Zc0`d0`f0ah0ah0do9fvKdxHYzELzD1zG2zH4\ zI6zK7zL9zNAzOBxQDvREtTEsWGqYHoZIn`KkaLicNhdOffQdh\ RciRafVZdYYc`W`cVZfTYiRVlQToNRsLOvKNyILzHIzGHzEGzD\ KzKNzQRvWVqaYlh`odcsahvZlxWqzAvzAzz0zz0zzUzzczzmzz\ mzs7ol4hd2cZ0dW0dT0dQ0YYY } frm:JuliaBC { ; Formula by Andrew Coppin e=p1, p=real(p2)+PI, q=2*PI*floor(p/(2*PI)), r=real(p2)-q, C=p3, Z=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|< p4+100 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
