Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's fractal image resembles a twisting spider's web closing on its victim, which is the midget at the center. This inspired the rather unlikely name "Time for Closure". Unfortunately, with some of the equipment not yet operational, I have almost no time for a discussion, so I'll end it here and let the image speak for itself. (Please let me know what it says when it starts speaking.)  The parameter file renders in a couple minutes, and the GIF image file will soon be available on the Web at: At 56F (13C), the fractal weather today was a bit milder and a bit less windy, but still too blustery for the cats, who sat by the window most of the day. And as for myself -- I'm going to spend the day trying to get the new Fractal Central up and running as efficiently as the old one did. The next FOTD will appear in an indefinite number of hours. Until then, take care. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com |
