We are actually viewing the pachyderms ; from the Oblate direction, which is the plane determined by the ; imag(c) and real(z) axes of the Julibrot. I named this orienta- ; tion Oblate because when the Jilibrot is sliced through its ; origin in this direction, an oblate open area appears. ; ; In this particular orientation, the elephants are not just ; sitting there, guarding their buds. They are running as though ; fleeing a brush fire. As they near the right edge of the image, ; they scrunch themselves up and dive down out of sight, eventual- ; ly losing all resemblance to elephants and curving around to ; become part of the goofy eyes of the Julia sets of East Valley. ; ; The straight line across the image around the elephants' feet is ; what I call a bridge. These straight-edged features never ; appear in Mandelbrot or Julia sets, but they are quite common in ; the sets of the four odd planes of the Julibrot. I have no time ; right now to explain why they are so straight, but I will do so ; when the rush subsides. ; ; Inamed the image "Elephant Run" because I imagined I saw running ; elephants in it. I rated it at a 5 because I put so little ; effort into it. ; ; As for the fractal cats, they are doing fine, though wondering ; why they are getting so little attention. If the work keeps ; moving, the next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. If not, look for ; it on the following day. Until whenever, take care, and even ; thinking about the fourth dimension can be hazardous to your ; health. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE==================================== Elephant_Run { ; time=0:06:22.01--SF5 on a P200 reset=2003 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=multirot-XY-ZW-new function=ident/flip passes=t center-mag=+0.37097269855928490/-0.003112\ 53640045051/584.8368/0.01431 params=0/90/2/0/0/0\ /0.2615/0 float=y maxiter=50000 bailout=10 inside=0 logmap=yes periodicity=10 colors=000P`KObKNeJMgJLjIKlIJnIIqHHsHGuHFqLEmPEiSD\ eWCaZCAbBAfABiACm9Dp8Et8FwAGsBJpDMmEPjGSgHWdJZaKaZ\ MdVNgSPkPQnMSqJTtGVwDWzAUw9St9Rr9Po8Nl8Mj8Kg7Id7Hb\ 7F_6DX6CV6AS58P57N55K43H42F47J9CNDGRHLVLQZPUbTZfYc\ jagnelriqvmuzqeriQkaBdUZ1tY4uX7uWAuWCvVFvUIvTLvTNw\ SQwRTwRVwQUtQTrQSoQRmQQjQQhQPfQOcPNaPMZPLXPLVPKSPJ\ QPINPHLOGIOGGOFEOEBOD9OC6OB4OB2aVUaVWbWYbWZbW`cWbc\ WdcWedXgdXidXjeXleXneXoZUiSScLQYFOTHPUJQVKRWMSXOTY\ PUYRVZTW_UX`WYaYZbZ_b``cbadcbeecffcfeage`he_heZidX\ idWjdVkdUkcSlcRlcQmcPnbNnbMobLobKpbJpZzzVzzRzzNzzK\ zzGzzCzz8zz4zz1zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zzFzz\ CzzPzzRzzTzzUzzPzzLzzHzzDzzXzz`zzdzzhzzlzzpzztzzqz\ znzzkzzhzzezzczz`zzYzzVzzSzzQzzNzhKziHzjEzkCzlFzkI\ zjLziOziQzhTzgWzgZzfazeczdfzdizclzbnzbjz_fzXbzU_zR\ WzOSzLPzISzGVzFYzE_zDbzCezBgzAdzCczEZzGXzIUzKRzMPz\ NMzPJzRHzTEzVBzX9zYpzNfzT } frm:multirot-XY-ZW-new {; draws 6 planes and rotations ;when fn1-2=i,f, then p1 0,0=M, 0,90=O, 90,0=E, 90,90=J ;when fn1-2=f,i, then p1 0,0=M, 0,90=R, 90,0=P, 90,90=J a=real(p1)*.01745329251994, b=imag(p1)*.01745329251994, z=sin(b)*fn1(real(pixel))+sin(a)*fn2(imag(pixel))+p3, c=cos(b)*real(pixel)+cos(a)*flip(imag(pixel))+p4: z=z^(p2)+c, |z| <= 36 } ; END PARAMETER FILE====================================== ;
