Fractal of the Day

|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: A 16mb file that would not run gave me a master headache today, and kept me busy so late that I am forced to cut short today's fractal discussion. But the fractal itself was found before the trouble turned up, and now appears in its full enigmatic glory. Today's fractal, which was created by a variation of the mysterious Ikenaga function, has been named "MandNewt Playtime". I won't even attempt to describe the image, which is quite indescribable, other than to say that it vaguely resembles a scene on another planet. The picture once again rates a 7, the third or fourth consecutive FOTD with rating of 7! The parameter file renders in 10+ minutes. The file of the GIF image will be posted in 16 hours to: The fractal weather today was sunny and 38F (3C). This was a huge improvement over the past several days, and brought out the vestigial kittens in the fractal cats. As I near the end of my energy, the day is also nearing its end. But tomorrow arrives in 2-1/4 hours, and every tomorrow brings a new fractal. So until then, take care, and relax with a fractal. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com |
