Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I realize that today's FOTD is late. Nothing unexpected took place; I simply decided to have a day of fun instead of work, and as a result I had no time to find a proper FOTD to post at the usual hour. The formula behind today's image adds 1,000,000,000,000,000 times as much Z^(-99) to Z2 as the formula that created the past 3 days' images. However, the resulting parent fractal still closely resembles the parent of the past 3 days, the main difference being a modest increase in size. Today's scene is located in the East Valley of the small minibrot on the positive X-axis. I could probably have found a near identical minibrot at the corresponding location in the parent fractal of the past 3 days. I rated the image at a 6, mostly because the past several images have been rather similar, and there *can* be too much of a good thing. The name "Whatever Wherever" must mean something, but if so, I have totally forgotten its meaning. The calculation time of 9-3/4 minutes is slower than the past several images, but still within reason. The fastest way to see the image is to log into the FOTD web site at: With sunny skies and a temperature of 84F 29C, Saturday was a perfect day here at Fractal Central, which is why F.L. and I decided to take the day off. The fractal cats never enjoy being left alone for the better part of a day, but they endured their isolation stoically. When we returned, their inconvenience was rewarded by a generous serving of tuna. The next FOTD will appear in about 12 hours. Until then, take care, and never stop wondering until nothing remains to wonder about. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
