The first thing that happens is the ; evaporation of the parent fractal, and this is not due to an ; excessive bailout radius. Today's parent fractal is so far gone ; in fact that it has degenerated into a smooth-edged circle, with ; only a bit of fractal action on its western extremity. ; ; Today's scene is located in what I assume to be the partially- ; evaporated remnants of the bud side of the north branch of Sea- ; horse Valley. ; ; Most of the coloring effect was achieved by rendering the image ; with the outside set to 'imag'. ; ; I named the image "Swiss Cheese Fractal" since to me at least, ; that's what it looks like. And I rated it at a 7, since I ; consider it above the recent FOTD average. The calculation time ; of 6-3/4 minutes is longer than yesterday's super-quick image, ; but still fast as fractal times go. ; ; The fastest way of all to view the image however is to go to the ; FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where it is or soon will be posted for public viewing. ; ; Light winds, ample sun and a temperature of 37F 3C here at ; Fractal Central on Sunday made conditions pretty average. The ; fractal cats complemented the weather by being on their average ; behavior. In my world, things were still quite busy, and will ; stay that way for a week or two. But regardless, the next FOTD ; will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and fractal ; luck be with you. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= SwissCheeseFractal { ; time=0:06:43.47--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=ident center-mag=-1.44286471691316400/+0.032918163027620\ 59/557090.1/1/-12.5/-1.65303069850353257e-007 params=1/0.95/1/-0.95/0/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=0 outside=imag periodicity=10 colors=000caWbbWbcWadWaeV`fV`gV_hV_iVZjVZkVYjWXiWX\ hXWgXWfXVeYVdYUcYUbZTaZT`ZS__SZ_RY_RX`QW`PVaPUaOTa\ OSbNRbNQbMPcMOcLNcLMdKLdKKdJJeJIeIHfHGfHFfGEgGDgFC\ gFBhEAhE9hD8iD7iC6iC5jB4jB4jA6iA8i9Ah9Ch9Dh8Fg8Hg7\ Jg7Lf7Mf6Of6Qe5Se5Ud5Vd4Xd4Zc3`c3bc3cb2eb2gb1ia1ka\ 1la3kZ4kX6kV7kT9kRAkPBkNDkLEkJGkHHkFIkDHlEGlEFmFEm\ FEmFDnGCnGBoHAoHAoH9pI8pI7qJ6qJ6qJ5rK4rK3sL2sL2sL3\ rK3qK3pK4oK4nK4mJ5lJ5lJ5kJ5jJ6iJ6hI6gI7fI7fI7eI7dI\ 8cH8bH8aH9`H9`H9_GAZGAYGAXGAWGBVGBUFBUFCTFCSFCRFCQ\ FDPEDOEDOEENEEMEELDFKDFJDFIDFIDGHDGGCGFCHECHDCHCCH\ CCw7ks8go8dk9ag9Yc9V_ASWAPSALOBIKBFTGvSFsRFqQFnQEl\ PEiOEgOEdNDbMD_MDYLDVKCTKCQJCOICLIBJHBGGBE`BN_BMZB\ MYBLYBLXBLWBKWBKVBKUBJUBJTBJSBISBIRBIQBHQBHPBGOBGO\ BGNBFMBFMBFLBEKBEKBEJBDIBDIBDHBCGBCkNUeLR`JOWHLQFI\ LDFy3Tx4Sw4Sv4Su4Rt4Rs4Rs5Qr5Qq5Qp5Po5Pn5Pm5Om6Ol6\ Ok6Nj6Ni6Nh6Ng6Mg7Mf7Me7L } 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========================================= ; ;
