Today's formula is about 10 years old. It is ; an early attempt to draw oblique slices through the Julibrot, ; while checking different powers of C. ; ; It is only moderately successful at doing this, but it still can ; produce some interesting images. Today's image is a scene in ; East Valley of the Mandeloid created by the formula Z^2+C^8. ; The slice is oriented very close to, but not exactly in, the ; Julia direction. ; ; The resulting fractal has the outer shape of the East Valley ; Julia sets but with a very decorative 'star' in the center. I ; named the image "Absolute Insanity" because it makes so little ; sense. ; ; With no idea of what other images might lie in the formula, I ; could give today's image no rating, but it is still a rather ; interesting, if not the most attractive, image of all time. ; ; The included parameter file calculates in 4-1/4 minutes on the ; fast machine. It would take 23 minutes on the P200mhz. To see ; the image without the need to calculate it, go to the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; and view it there. ; ; Friday began muggy here at Fractal Central, but turned quite ; pleasant during the afternoon. The cats gave up waiting for ; another bat to appear, and resumed their normal activity of ; making their own trouble. My day was peaceful enough. ; ; The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, ; and walk with spirit. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Absolute_Insanity { ; time=0:04:16.72-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=ManJul2CPwr passes=t center-mag=0/0/1.02/1/-90/3.88578058618804789e-016 params=0.2505/2.06e-005/0.015/0/8/0 float=y maxiter=25000 inside=0 periodicity=10 colors=000XGIzKIAMfAMeAMcALbAKaAJ`AI_AHZAGYAFXAFW9\ EV8DU6CW6BZ6Aa68d63feRIfTJgUKhVLiWMjXNkZNl_Om`PnaQ\ obRocRpeSqfTrgUshVtiWukWvlXwmYxnZyo_zscyp_ymWyjSyg\ OydLyaHyZDyW9yT5zO0yQ2xR4wS5vT7uU8tWAsXBrYDqZFp_Go\ `InbJmcLldMkeOjfQigRhiTgjUfkWelXdmZdn_bo`ao`_oaZpa\ XpbWpbUqcTqcRqdQrdPreNreMsfKsfJsgHtgGthEthDuiBuiAu\ j9ujAthAsfArdArcAqaAp_ApYAoXBnVBmTBmRBlQBkOBkMBjKB\ iJChHChFCgDCfCCfACe8Cd6Cd5Bc6Bb6Ab6Aa79a79`78_88_8\ 7Z87Z96Y96X95WA5VA4UA4TB3SB3RB2QC2PC1OC1NC4PB7RBAT\ BCVBFXAIZAL`ANbAQd9Te9Wg9Yh9`i8ck8fl8hm8il7ik7ik7j\ j6ji6ji6kh6kh5kg5lf5lf4le4md4md4mc3nc3nb3na2oa2o`2\ n_1o`2o`3oa3pa4pa4pb5qb6qb6qc7rc7rc8rd9sd9seAseAte\ BtfCtfCufDugDugExfFugErgEohEmhEjiEgiEejEbjE_kEYkEV\ lESlDQmDNmDKnDInDFoDCoDApD7pD4qDZP52qD5oF8nGBlIEkJ\ HiLKhMMfOPePScRVbSY`U`_VcYXeXYhV_kU`nSbqRctPevOfeE\ YP5QR6RS6RU7SV7SMsONwLOzJ } frm:ManJul2CPwr {; Jim Muth ; Creates and rotates ^2 Hyperbrot Figure ; P1 sets point of rotation, P2 sets angle of rotation ; P3 sets power of C z=c=pixel: z=sqr(z)+p1+(p2*(c^p3)), |z| <= 100 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
