Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Rating a 5, today's fractal is one step above yesterday's. Now if I can continue this gradual improvement for 5 more days, we'll have an honest 10 rated image for the 17th. I named the picture "Wings of Iteration". It has a certain airborne feeling about it that inspired the name. With a running time of 8-1/2 minutes, the parameter file is a bit slow, making a download of the GIF image the wiser choice. As always, the GIF image file may be found at: The fractal weather today was partly sunny, though quite breezy. The 60F (15.5C) temperature was mild enough -- too bad the high wind kept the fractal cats so skittish that they remained indoors. As is obvious by the shortness of the recent discussions, I've not been inspired to write philosophy for quite some time. The reason is that I'm disgusted by the political chaos here in the U.S. (Politics is the one thing that can really make me lose my cool.) But come tomorrow, I'll have at least another fractal, even if the words are few. Until then, take care, and sometimes the greatest wisdom comes in the fewest words. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com |
