Actually the name ; is pure nonsense, much like what some say about certain things I ; sometimes write. But what the heck!?! Nonsense is what makes ; life and fractals so interesting. ; ; The generating expression combines 11 negative parts of Z^(-1.1) ; with 1.1 negative parts of Z^(-11.1) before adding (1/C) on each ; iteration. The resulting parent fractal is a typical double ; negative thing consisting of four vertically stacked bays with a ; prominent 'fan' extending east from the origin. Curving ; filaments extend outward from these bays and terminate in a ; series of rings. Today's scene lies in the large southernmost ; ring. ; ; The rating of a 7 for both the art and math is not quite high ; enough to make the 3-minute calculation time much of a bargain. ; But the true bargain, with associated happiness, may be found on ; the web sites. ; ; Find happiness! How? By checking the finished image at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; The day began with heavy fog here at Fractal Central. The fog ; cleared away by mid-morning, but clouds moved in by noon, and ; light rain began a couple hours later. The fractal cats were ; annoyed that the sun was obscured just as it was ready to shine ; on their window shelf. The humans, having nothing to be annoyed ; about, made it through the day with minimum angst. ; ; There is a 90-percent chance that next FOTD will appear in 24 ; hours. The chance will increase to 100 percent when it actually ; does appear. Until then, take care, and when I was in school we ; never heard of school shootings, nor did we flood the school ; with grief counselors when two students were killed in drunk ; driving accidents. We either care a lot more nowadays or our ; students are turning into angry wimps. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Avuncular_Fractal { ; time=0:03:00.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+1.703904359650447/-9.221842800854315/\ 3.348801e+010/1/143/0 params=-11/-1.1/-1.1/-11.1/0\ /100/0/0 float=y maxiter=1600 inside=0 logmap=190 periodicity=10 colors=00050J60I70H80G90FA0DB0CC0BD1AE29F38G47H56I\ 65K74M83O92QA6SD9UGCWJGYMJ_PM`SQ`VTaZWaaZbdbcgecjh\ emlgqoiurlxuoytrzswzrvzqszppzopzonynnxmlyllykgyjjy\ jbyiazhazgazfazeazeZxfXwgVvhSuiQtiOrjLqkJplHomEnmC\ lnAko7jp5iq3hq7gmAfiDeecdbccZccVcbRmaOm`Km_GmZCzZ9\ zYAzYAzYBzYBrYCrYCrYDrXDrXErXEmXFmXFmXGmXGmXGmWFmV\ EmUDmTDmSCmSBmRBmQAmP9mO9mO8mN7mM7mL6mK5mJ5eJ4gI3h\ H3jG2lF1mF1fM3`S5UY7Oc9HiBBoDDlEFjEGhFIeFKcFLaGN_G\ OXHQVHSTHTRIVOIWMJYKJ_IJ`FKbDKcBLe9Lg6Lh4Mj2Mk0Ml3\ Ml6Mm9MmBMnEMnHMoKMoMMpPMpSMpVMqXMq_MrbMreMsgMsjMt\ mMtpMtrMqpLnoLkmLhlLekLbiL_hLXfKUeKRdKObKLaKI_KFZK\ CYKB_KB`LAaLAbM9dM9eM8fN8hN7iO7jOUlOUmPUnPUoPUpOcq\ NcqMcrLcrLcsKhsJhtIhtIhuHhuGhvFcvFmwEmwDmxCmxCmyBm\ yAmz9mz9mzGmzMmzSzzZzzdzzjzzpzzozznzznzzmzzmzzlzzl\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } 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 ;
