It's a bird, it's a plane, it's ; Superfractal, complete with its superinsignia on its chest. ; Well, actually, it's an Oblate view of one of the strange ; rectangles in the East Valley of the split main minibrot on the ; negative X-axis of the Z^(2.003)+C Mandeloid. ; ; Today's image might not be faster than a bullet, more powerful ; than a locomotive, or able to leap tall buildings in a single ; bound, but if it had appeared in the 1930's, around the time the ; other superhero did, it would have been considered super indeed. ; ; My opinion of the image's artistic worth is in the range of a 7, ; while the math worth rates a humdrum 5. The math aspect might ; have rated a point or two higher if so many similar rectangles ; had not appeared so many times before. ; ; The name "Superfractal" came to mind when I saw a stylized ; letter 'S' in the image. The 'S' consists of what remains of ; the open area of the curious Julia rectangle. ; ; Requiring a wait of 8-1/2 minutes, the calculation time is slow, ; there is no doubt of that. But the wait can be eliminated by ; checking the web sites. ; ; The image has been rendered and posted to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Hi-def versions are at: ; ; ; ; The back images are at: ; ; ; ; The day began with a bang as a heavy thunder-storm broke out ; here at Fractal Central. When the storm ended, the rest of the ; day brought lots of clouds and a few light showers. With a ; little sun mixed in and a temperature of 79F 26C, it was still a ; pleasant day however. The fractal cat, who did not like the ; thunder, braved the storm nevertheless in his favorite chair. ; The humans noted that the additional 1.15 inches, 3cm, of rain ; was too much of a good thing for the fractal garden, which is ; becoming rather waterlogged. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted when the bull cows come home. ; Until whenever these apparent hermaphrodites arrive, take care, ; and keep affirming that there are no aliens from space secretly ; running the mess we've worked ourselves into here on earth. ; After a while, you might actually start to believe yourself. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Superfractal { ; time=0:08:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot4 center-mag=-0.000000295\ 34029771/-0.00001939834553309/8925.013/0.03549/\ -89.0561575137423063/88.6599571880745998 float=y params=0/90/0/90/-1.7435/0/0.00019/0.07682/2.003/0 maxiter=64000 inside=0 logmap=80 periodicity=6 colors=000bMjaLj_KkZJkYIkXIkWHmVGoUFqQGrTHsVItXJu_\ KvaLwQMwQNwROwRPwSQvSRvTSuTSuURtUQtUPsUOsSNrUOrVPq\ WPqXQoYRl_Rj`ShaTfbTccUadU_fVYgWWhWTiXRjYPlYNmZKn_\ Io_Gp`Epb8q`CqZGrXKrWOrUSsSWsQ_sPctNgtLktKnsJorIor\ HoqHoqGopFooFooEonDomDpmCpmBplBpkApk9pj9pj8pi7pj4q\ i7pi9piBpiEphGohIohKohNohPogRngTngWngYng_nfamfdmff\ mfhmfjmehkdgicfgbdeacc`ba_`_Z_YYZWXXUWWSVVQUTOTSMS\ RKRPIQOGPNERI1OMDLQPJU_IV`HW`GX`FY`FZ`E_`D``Ca`Cb`\ Bc`Ad`9e`9f`8g`7h`6i`2ja6i`Ah_Dh_HgZLfYOfYSeXWfUVe\ XUeZUe`TdbTddSdfRciRckQcmQboPbqUgtPbsLYrGTqCOp8KpB\ MlDOhFQeHSaKVYJUZIUZIUZHU_GU_GU_FU_EU`EU`DU`CU`CTa\ BTaATaATa9Tb8Tb8Tb7Tb6Tc6Tc5Tc5Tc8UbAUbCVaEVaHWaJW\ `LW`NX_Qc_Sc_UcZWcZZcZ`cYbcYdcXgmXimXkmWmmWqmYomWn\ mVlmUkmTimRhmQfmPemOcmMbmL`mKcmJcmIcmGcmFcmEcmDcmB\ cmAmm9mm8mm4mm7mmAmzCmzFmzHzzKzzMzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } frm:SliceJulibrot4 {; draws all slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), esc=imag(p5)+9 c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=z^(real(p5))+c |z|< esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
