Today's image barely ; scratches the surface of the things it can do with the higher- ; order minibrots, all of which until now have looked pretty much ; the same. ; ; Today's image is one of the best cubic minibrots that I have yet ; stumbled upon. The parent fractal closely resembles the figure ; drawn by the marksmandel formula of Fractint when the exponent ; is set to 2. But the buds of today's parent, instead of being ; quadratic, are cubic. Today's image lies in the northern ; suburbs of this parent. ; ; I named the image "The Cubic Squared" because I felt like it. I ; rated it at an 8 because that's what I think it's worth. ; ; When I rendered the image, I used nothing more than the tradi- ; tional equal-iteration bands on the outside with a flat black ; on the inside. All the excitement is in the fractal itself. ; ; The calculation time of a mere 42 seconds can hardly be beat. ; But if running parameter files is not your cup of tea, forget ; the colloquialisms and beat it to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the completely rendered image is posted for viewing. ; ; The perfect weather at Fractal Central on Tuesday was appreci- ; ated to the fullest by the fractal cats, who enjoy plenty sun, ; low humidity and a temperature of 79F 26C. ; ; I would have enjoyed a day a little more peaceful, but the day ; I had was not too bad. The next FOTD, another good one, will ; appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be fractally ; correct. Never mention undesirable things about fractals that ; everyone wants to continue denying are true. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= The_Cubic_Squared { ; time=0:00:42.23-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=DivideBrot2 passes=1 center-mag=+0.014489004226624/+0.777624726013028/\ 2.005397e+007/1/-86/0 params=1/-2/1/0 maxiter=1800 float=y inside=0 logmap=53 periodicity=10 colors=000NOPOONDKU8If6JY5JQ4JH3JD2J81J30J05QRAXaF\ cnKjsPqwUwzYzzawxdrsgmrjgonaoqXotRowMoKDGUIKcKOhQS\ mSWrU_vWbk_ZacVSgSHkO7oK0sH4rIBrJIrKOrLVrMarNgrNZm\ ORhPJdQB_R3WR1WR2`Y3dc4hi4lo8fgCa_GXSKRLOMDSH5VC0_\ BIcA`g9sfBqeDodEmcGkbHiaJg`Ke_McZNaYP_YQZ_O`aNacMc\ eLdgJeiIgkHhlGicEhVChNAhJCiFDiCEi8Fj4Gj1HjLRnIWhG_\ cEcZBgT9kO7oJ4sD2w80z35y59w7Du9HtAMrCQpEUnGYmHWgHU\ aHfjIbfHZcHV_H7B`EJULQNfHkaN`XSR0z08r5IgB4SpwzelpX\ afPT_RSZOSYMSXJIU0MV5PWBi9QTOUSRPSULTosShfSbU3IECN\ FKSGMuWqP7hSB_VEpdvc`a0xVDjOsvLloKeiJZbICRgjkEcfFY\ aGLDpPNZ0K9ERDpzidhh_dZW`QOtrPnhQh_RzQNzcPzYQzSRzM\ kzYfzTwzPwzLwz0wz7wz9wzCwzFwzLwzJwz_wzQwzXwzTwzPwz\ Lwzdwz0wzpwzMwzvwzMwzCwz2wzRwzoFzqLzsRzuWzvczikzXs\ zKNzTlzJezIZzHezdazZZzTVzNUzuHzgOz0Qz9CzHKzHvzfCzQ\ nzqhzgbzZXzQjzK`zIQzaRzRBzcHzWNzOYzbVzSjz3ez7`zAWz\ E6zoHzY0zvwz0oz3gz8_zDCz0 } frm:DivideBrot2 { ; Jim Muth z=0, c=pixel, aa=real(p1), bb=imag(p1), dd=real(p2), ff=imag(p2)+100: z=z^aa/(z^bb+dd)+c |z| < ff } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
