But what a change the different ; parameters have made. I have gone negative with the real(p3) ; parameter and increased the real(p4) paremeter to 1.5*(10^-101). ; As a result, the minibrot that lies at the center is no longer ; half folded up, it is totally transformed. A real 'Sea Change' ; has taken place, which is the name I gave the image. ; ; Once again, I will not even try to explain what is going on in ; the image, mainly because I have no idea. It's hard enough to ; think in 4 dimensions when dealing with the Julibrot figure, ; much less the 8 dimensions of the HyperJulibrot. All I can do ; is sit back, study today's image, take a deep breath, and say ; 'wow'. ; ; The rating of an 8 reflects the mathematical interest. The ; pictorial worth is closer to a 6.5. But I'm just getting ; started with the HyperMandelbrot set. There's a whole new world ; waiting there, ready to be explored. Sooner or later some great ; fractal images are sure to emerge. ; ; The calculation time of 1-3/4 minutes is quite fast, and if ; 'quite' is still too slow, the completed image may be viewed at ; leisure on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The mild temperature of 57F 14C here at Fractal central on ; Wednesday was not spoiled by the cloudy skies and fog bank ; hanging over the river. The fractal cats agreed that the day ; was pleasant, and renewed their demand for an early treat. ; ; My day was spent working and wondering what fractal wonders will ; be found. The next FOTD, most likely another variation of the ; scene of yesterday and today, will be posted within 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and if empty space holds dark energy, is ; it possible for absolutely 'nothing' to have ever existed? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_Sea_Change { ; time=0:01:43.42-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=HyperMandelbrot2 passes=1 periodicity=0 center-mag=+0.301038546627/+0.023570365936/\ 1.7e+007/1/-152.5/0 params=0/0/0/0/-5.89/0/\ 1.5e-101/0 float=y maxiter=3600 inside=0 logmap=247 colors=000jKQiK5hK6gK7fK8eM9dOAcS8bU7aW6`Y4__3Za2Y\ _1XY0YW0ZU0_S0aM0bG0c90d30i39m3Hr3Qv3YdIeOXm7jtMrV\ `z6Wp9SfBOXEKOGQKJWMMaMPfPSlUVrZYwc_zg9VHGXGN_FTaE\ _cDffClhBsjAykGZlL9jMEiMJhMOgMTfMYeMbdMfURWVWMY`BZ\ e1ghBljLejaXiiSfyVcpT_gXW_WRRYOJUNAUL2TH5RC6O77Q2D\ T8IYDK`LDlR7kdPnpmzzz3CA2IAKQAPXKUbSZhTcnUcuVczcUz\ pcztmzwzzzLGPcKHmO9wm1cL2UF2Z92b32TLCJbLAsUJnRSiP`\ eMi`KrXISSZ2OnJpZNi_Qb_TW`XP`_IabCaZ9SW7JS4AP21`JD\ l_OmXSnVVoSYoQ`pOdqLgrJjrHmcWeQiYCwQHqSLlTPfUTaVXW\ W`RX`SX`SW`TWaTWaUVaUVaVUaVUaWUaWTaXTbXSbYSbYSbZRb\ ZRb_Qb_QmC5iKCeSJ3md6kb9jaCi`Fh_HgZKfYNeWQdVScUVbT\ YaS``RvEktGisHhrIgqJfpLdoMcnNbmOalP`jRZiSY_UZcVUfW\ QiXRkXSnYTpYUrYVuZWwZXyZXrYUkXReWPZVMSUJMUHVTUcSfl\ SsdRjXRbPRUHRM9RECTDFUDIWDLXDOZDR_DUaDWbD_aCc`Cf`C\ j_BnZBqZBpXCoVDnTEmRFlPF`WWQblZecghVpkMynDqoBjoAbo\ 8Wo7Pp59nkPYpcHur1yS3q24j } frm:HyperMandelbrot2 {; periodicity must be turned off a=(p1),b=(p2): q=sqr(a)-sqr(b)+pixel, b=(p3+2)*a*b+p4, a=q, |a|+|b| <= 100 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
