But I still managed to find something in a very ; unusual parent, which is quite sensitive to changes in the ; escape radius. ; ; The name came about when the dark worm-like shapes surrounding ; the central minibrot reminded me of creatures called 'curl-ups' ; that exist only in the etchings of Escher, the mathematical ; artist. ; ; Unfortunately, too much math and too little art prevented me ; from giving the image a rating, and the rather slow calculation ; time of just under 8 minutes helped not a bit. ; ; The best way to view the scene for all it is worth is to see in ; already calculated on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Thursday turned quite pleasant here at Fractal Central, with ; total sunshine and a temperature of 39F +4C. The fractal cats ; enjoyed both the sun and an extra treat of tuna. ; ; As stated above, my day was very busy. The next FOTD will be ; posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and why do we ignore ; the conscious observer in the much-sought-after theory of ; (almost) everything, which, even if it *is* found, will actually ; explain nothing? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Curling_Curl-Ups { ; time=0:07:48.26-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinalDivideBrot function=recip float=y center-mag=+0.6360435800559266/+0.2236352912122147\ /6.218612e+010/1/-159/0 params=-1/3/-12/0 inside=0 maxiter=10000 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000BQcFIUGFOHCIDA8I9DM9HR9LV8P_8TjIIfDQb5Vc\ 8XdBYeD_fG`gJbhLciOeiNejQfkTflWflZgmagndglrdmlfngg\ nbhoYimWloTjpQhqOfrLdsIbtG`uDZz0dvBYrMRehlyVNoWKeX\ HWYE7b2NYBaUKwMWsOUpQSmRQIWUKYSM_QOaOPcNFZL6VJ8RHA\ OFCKDEHBGD9IA7J75IC9HGDGLHGPLFUPEYTEaWK_`PZeUXi_Wn\ dUsRhh``pnSziTweTu`UrpOuXUpEjiDfjDcjD_kDXkDTlDQlDM\ mts5Z`S89zDJmISaM`QRiEVr22Ro6QhAPbEOW36T8CSDHRINQN\ SQSXPXbOagNUhKZjLbkMflNjmOnoPrpQvqR5jqPmhgp_zrSlWS\ LoI_4TZASZFSYKRYPRXUQXZQaocZiXXcQUYJkN5BOQSSCVQEYO\ G`MIcKKfIMw3SpAQiGObMNWSLB`5PYKbVZyNttQppSllVhhXdc\ Z`_aXWcTE`ZLcUSePZhKejFum6llBdkFWjJOiNFhR9yO8sR8mT\ 7gV7aX6WZ6Q`5Kbs0wb5pMAj5Fd4Eg4Ei3Ek3Em3Do2Dq2Ds2D\ uBCnJCgRB`ZBU_FW`IYaL_bOacRcdUekXieXg`XeWXcRXbMX`H\ XZ3VZ8WYCXYGYYKZYO_YS`YWaYRdcWb`_aYc`Wg_TkZQoYOsXL\ 5MEXRHwWJvSIvPHvMGuIFuFEuCDxABu9Dr9Eo8Gm8Hj7Jg7Kd6\ Mf3Lb6NZ8OVAPRCRNESJGT7Ym } frm:FinalDivideBrot { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1)+0.00000000000000000001: z=(-b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))-c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
