Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: There's a good reason I named today's image "Make-up FOTD", and that's because I lost the image that was originally supposed to be the FOTD for today, and had to find another fractal in a hurry. Actually, I didn't lose the image, I lost its parameters when I saved it in gif87a mode by mistake. The original image rates an 8, and I may post it some day to a.b.p.f., but it can't be today's FOTD because without the data, I can't make a parameter file from it. The make-up image is good enough, though far short of the one that was lost. The formula that created the image subtracts a portion of Z^(-1.11) from Z^(1.1). The parent fractal appears as a very twisted Mandeloid with a large area of chaos on its north side. Today's midget lies in this chaos. The parameter file renders in 8 minutes. The GIF image file will be posted in 16 hours to: The fractal weather today was miserable, with a steady soaking cold rain that kept even the thoughts of outdoors from the fractal cats. The temperature of 36F (2C) would have been too cold even if it had not been raining. The lost fractal killed my philosophical mood, though the mood may return tomorrow. Check then on the Philofractal list to see. Until next time, take care, and when hunger strikes, eat. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com |
