The answer is ; neither yes nor no, but how many times. Today's image shows a ; minibrot on a filament, one of the easiest kind to find. It was ; so easy to find in fact that I could rate the image no higher ; than a miserable 4. ; ; The parent fractal is a humongous thing about 1000 times the ; size of the Mandelbrot set. It is shaped like a distorted M-set ; with rings on three sides. To see this parent, set the ; magnitude to 0.001, the center to 0,0 the rotation to zero, and ; reset the logmap to zero also. Today's image is located in the ; East Valley area of a larger minibrot on the filament leading to ; the northeast ring. ; ; The name "Ring Around the Posie" refers to the rings in the ; image. Such rings are a universal feature in most double- ; negative fractals. I have no idea what a 'posie' might be, or ; even if it's a real word. ; ; The calculation time of 5 minutes means that a modicum of ; patience will be needed to calculate the image. The impatient ; may have their impatience relieved by going to the FOTD web site ; at: ; ; ; ; and viewing the finished image there. ; ; Lots of clouds and oppressive humidity prevailed here at Fractal ; Central on Saturday. The temperature of 81F 27C felt more like ; 104F 40C. The fractal cats, not worried about humidity, seemed ; quite comfortable as they lounged most all day on their shelf by ; the window. Sunday was sunny and less humid. ; ; My Saturday was good enough. Sunday was better. But that is no ; reason that tomorrow should not be better yet. The next FOTD ; will appear in around 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be ; subjectively objective. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= RingAroundThePosie { ; time=0:05:04.61-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip center-mag=+268.2218482282329/+86.61052102191096/\ 8612658/1/-145/0 params=-3/-1.3/-0.3/-3.3/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=3600 inside=0 logmap=-436 periodicity=10 colors=000Ok9PkDQkIRlMSlQTlVUlZVmbWmgXmkXmoUikSehQ\ aeNYbLV_JRXGNUEJRCGO9CL78I54F31CS84UH7cPAmXCreFvmI\ zuKrrLmpMcnMUlNNjONhONfPNdQNbQN`RNZRNXSNVTNTTNRUNP\ VNNVNLWNJWRIVUHUXGU_FTbFTfESiDRlCRoBQrBQqCOqDMqEKq\ FIqGGpcEpcCpcApc8pc6rcCtcIvZOwUUvRXuPZtN`tLbsKdrIf\ rGhqEkpCmoBoo9qn7sm5um4wk8tjBqiEnhHkfKheNedQbcT_aW\ X`ZU_aRZdOXaQV_STYURWWPUXOSZMQ`KObIMcGJeEHgDFiBDk9\ Bl79n57p35r23s48q5Do6Hm7Ml8Qj9VhBZgCceDgcElbFp`GuZ\ HyYOvXUsX_pWemWkjWiiYhiZgi`fiaeibdidciebifaih`ii_i\ jZhlYhmXhnWhpVhqUhrThtShuRhvQhxPhyOhzMfsLglJheIiZG\ jSFkLDlECm7Bn9AoAApC9qD9rF8sG7tH7uJ6vK6wM5xN5yO6zQ\ 7zR8zS9zTAzVBzWCzXDzYEzZFz`GzaGzbHzcIzdJzfKzgLzhMz\ iNzjOzlPzmQznRzoRzpUzmWzjYzg_zdbzadzZfzXhzUkzRmzOo\ zLqzIszGqzJozLmzNlzPjzRhzTfzVezXczZaz``zbZzdXzfVzh\ UzjSzlQznOzpNzrLztJzvIzxJzhJzUJzFKzELzEMzENzENzEOz\ EPzEQzERzESzESzETzFNz4Nz4 } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; 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)+(p4)), 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========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
