Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I have time for only a few quick words after a very busy day, which combined my normal everyday work with the tiring job of readying the new Fractal Central for business. Today's fractal is named "Iterative Footprint". I gave it this name when I was reminded of a footprint while I studied the image. The formula -5Z^(10)+Z^(-0.5)+(1/C) created the image, which rates an average '5' on the 0-to-10 scale of fractal worth. The parameter file takes almost 10 minutes to render on my aging Pentium 200mhz machine. But running the parameter file is unnecessary, since the GIF image will soon be available at two sites on the web. Those sites are Paul's at: The fractal weather today began with a shower of snow, then became sunny for the rest of the day. The afternoon temperature of 44F (6.5C) was a bit chilly, but still mild enough for the fractal cats to venture outdoors. And my venture for the day has now concluded. But the conclusion is strictly temporary, for I'll do it all again tomorrow. Until then, take care, and may all your fractals be great ones. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com |
