Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I was rather busy on Tuesday, which explains the lateness and briefness of today's image. I'm trying to get things wrapped up so we can take a short vacation in a few days. I deserve some time off. I think it has been 4 years since the last vacation. Today's image takes the fractal that results when 33 parts of Z^(-1.6) are subtracted from 33 parts of Z^(-1.5), and finds a promising scene with a quadratic midget in it. It then evaporates the scene and renders the resulting blank screen with the outside set to 'bof61'. The resulting image rates a 6, (in my opinion at least). I do not think the image deserves a name. The render time of 8 minutes is well within reason for an image with a maxiter of 1000 that consists entirely of trapped points. But to make things even more convenient, the completed GIF image will soon be available on the FOTD web site at: Hazy, warm and muggy weather continued here at Fractal Central on Tuesday. The fractal cats, who continued acting like kittens, were notably unconcerned with the weather. They were more concerned with chasing the large fly that got into the house. Cassie, the more agile one, finally caught the fly and ate it. Only one lamp was knocked over in the chase. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. After that, things become uncertain. Fractal lady and I are thinking of shutting things down for a week or so and taking a long-overdue vacation to places yet to be determined. BTW, I have purchased a camera to take on any vacation that might happen, so look for pictures of both the old and new fractal cats in the near future. I'll keep the lists updated as things develop. Until tomorrow, take care, and expect only good things to happen. (Note that there is no guarantee of this however.) Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
