Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's FOTD is late. My alibi: I got caught up in the football excitement as the Ravens won the championship. My restitution: a 7-rated above-average image, which for some vague reason I have named "A Fractal Blast". It's one of those all-inside images that takes advantage of the fmod inside fill, which appears as today's FOTD. The formula behind the image is number 6 in my series of 12 MandNewt formulae, which are variations of the Ikenaga function, which remains kind of a mystery. At near 18 minutes, the parameter file is slow, but due to the lateness of this parameter posting, the GIF image file will be posted to: The image will also be available soon on the following web sites: The fractal weather was partly sunny and 45 degrees F (7C). The fractal cats enjoyed the pleasant conditions. I had intended to philosophize today. Obviously, I did not. But there's no rush to get myself into trouble with my controversial opinions. I'll keep trying to make my insights public until I succeed. Until next time, take care, and be happy. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com |
