But while yesterday's image was located on the south ; side of the valley, today's image lies on the north side. ; ; A good part of today's image consists of 'inside' areas brought ; to life by the inside=zmag option. The inside stuff is so ; arranged that it's rather hard to tell where the outside ends ; and the inside begins. ; ; The rating of a 7 reflects my opinion of the basic worth of the ; image. I did put some effort into the coloring, but not enough ; earn a reward of a half-point coloring bonus. ; ; The name "Seeing Triple" refers to the cubic nature of the ; poorly-defined minibrot at the center. (The image should have ; a higher maxiter.) When I thought of the name, I was wondering ; how many eyes a four-dimensional being would need for 4-dimen- ; sional vision in his 4-D space. I decided on three eyes, but ; two might be sufficient. Regardless, the name refers to the ; minibrot, not a hypothetical hyperbeing. ; ; The calculation time of 2-1/3 minutes is about average for a ; fractal. Time may be saved by viewing the finished image on the ; current FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The original FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; is still waiting for Paul to recover. ; ; The snow and ice on Tuesday prevented any further work on the ; upcoming FOTD web site. ; ; Two inches, 5cm, of snow fell overnight Monday here at Fractal ; Central. The snow changed to freezing rain Tuesday morning, ; leaving a crunchy coating on the snow before ending by noon. ; ; The temperature finally rose one degree C above freezing in the ; afternoon, making the job of clearing the fractal sidewalk much ; easier. The fractal cats watched the outdoor action with much ; interest, but took frequent breaks on their shelf over the hall ; heater to keep warm. ; ; My day was occupied by moving snow and ice, while FL kept the ; commercial work moving and the coffee hot. The next FOTD will ; be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and when the ; going gets tough, the tough look for help. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Seeing_Triple { ; time=0:02:22.25-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=ident float=y center-mag=-1.089025340083513/+0.00811676821096749\ /2.088175e+011/1/-100/0 params=3.001/0/0.001/0 maxiter=1500 inside=zmag logmap=406 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000A8FIgWDga9ag4Wm0Ps2Ni3L`5IR6GO7FO7EO8CR9\ AU9ASAATAAWEAXIAXMCYPEYZHQghIppAyw2ppBhiK_bTSX`TZc\ T_eU`hUbjVcmVdoQahMZbHWWDTQ8QJ4ND0K7ML7TOAZRCdUEjX\ GpZIjUNdQRZMWTH_NDdI9hNFeSLbXR`aXYfbVkhTpnQttOhqLY\ oINlFCjC1h97`LCUW9PY7L_5G`3Cb18c4Cd7Fd9JdCMeFQeHTe\ MQcQNbVLaZI_cGZgDYkBXgHYcMZ`SZXX_Ta`Qg`MlaJqaSgV_Z\ OaWMcTLeQKgNJiKIkHHUK_CMrLWsUesboskxsmttomuqbusSvu\ Ivw0wyOwpUshbo`kkTwgizcuz_zzWzz`LkdTfh_almAxXTpKIa\ JQcIXeHdgEU4F_IGeWecgTghu47gJKUYXECDFOOG_ZWFrSOoOW\ mKckN3HLFPKQWI`bVhBOjTotLan4WmFRlPMk_WPuSVrO`oKfl8\ zIBvPDrWFnb3m9dSeuPpUhxNjp7U9AZJCbSFg`lYRXd`c80YIC\ SSNMaZ7qxAotCnpFllMC1KLDJUOBMLGYE0CM5HW9LdEPnITwEW\ ILKPR9VQF_PLcOQgNWlM`pLftLyzNjyPjyRiyTizVhzXhzYhzW\ grVgjTgbSfVQfNPfGVj8_m1fWUmEvdY`XqFRrDMsBH09Cu77v6\ Iw6Sx6by6lz6vz6XzI7zTCzQHzNzzLzzIzzFzzDzzLzzSzzZzz\ ezzlzz`zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } frm:MandelbrotBC3 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100 p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*fn1(p/(2*PI)) r=real(p2)+PI-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
