Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's evaporated image has its problems, but despite its difficulties, it still rates a solid 8. Perhaps its greatest problem is that its magnitude of 1.67*(1013) is beyond the range of perfect definition. But the resulting jagged edges actually add a kind of atmosphere to the scene. The parent fractal came about when I combined 7.5 negative parts of Z^(-1.1) with 0.75 negative part of Z^(-11.4) and added (1/C). It's a typical fractal of its type, with a N-S oriented string of large bays and a very prominent 'fan' extending east along the X-axis. Today's scene lies very deep indeed in one of the small areas of chaos on the bay-side edge of the fan. I named the image "Deeply Evaporated", which pretty much describes it. The calculation time of just over 6 minutes is a bit slower than ideal, but still well worthwhile for an image rating an 8. Of course, all thoughts of calculation may be banished by visiting the FOTD web site at: Sunday turned out to be quite pleasant here at Fractal Central. There was not quite as much sun as on Saturday, and the temperature never rose above 45F 7C, but I actually did nothing for most of the day, which, after yesterday's workout, seemed perfect. The fractally-inclined cats agreed. The next FOTD will make its much-anticipated (I hope) appearance in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and how could the 'Big Bang' have made such a big bang if no one was around to hear the sound of the mighty explosion? Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
