Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image lies in a very unlikely parent fractal -- the one that results when an infinitesimal 0.000000000000000000000000000001 part of Z^(-99) is combined with 1.1 parts of Z2 and (1/C) is added. This parent consists of a single giant circle filled with detail of the most unusual kind. A small Mandelbrot set lies on the X-axis at the eastern edge of this circle. Today's scene is located in the East Valley area of this M-set. This parent fractal has the strange property of not appearing unless the mathtolerance=0.05/1 command is entered first. If the parameters are entered without this command, the result is a blank screen. I named the image "A Hairy Adventure". It seems a rather pleasant name. The rating of an 8 indicates that the 2-1/2 minutes spent running the included parameter file will be rewarded by a very attractive image. The small effort of going to the FOTD web site at: A near perfect day prevailed weatherwise here at Fractal Central on Wednesday. Unfortunately, the workday was not so perfect. But the work did get finished, and the fractal was good, so I would rate the day a mild success. The fractal cats overturned three wastebaskets in agreement. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and don't be haunted by a fractal ghost. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
