Fractal of the Day

FOTD -- October 28, 2008   (Rating 7)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image has in it one of the most incredible assemblage of minibrots that I have yet stumbled upon.   There are cubic ones, quadratic ones, some that look like disembodied cubic buds, plus quite a bit of odds and ends.   And strangely enough, none of this actually exist, since the entire image consists of blank inside stuff made visible by the 'zmag' inside fill, which adds detail where none exists.

I named the image "Scattered Minibrots" when I turned on the radio and heard the local forecast of scattered showers.   The image rates a 7.   If I had found a chance to further tweak the colors, it might have rated an 8.

The calculation time of 27 minutes is not as bad as it seems, since the time is on the old P200 machine.   On the usual P4-2000mhz unit it would take about 6 minutes.   The calculation time may be totally eliminated by visiting the FOTD web site at:
http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html
where the completed image is posted for instant viewing.

Thick clouds, a chilly temperature of 50F 10C and occasional light rain spoiled Monday here at Fractal Central.   The fractal cats vented their dis-satisfaction by attacking and tearing up their scratching post.

My day was frustrating, spoiled by a job that simply would not do what I wanted.   And to make things worse, my fractal-dedicated P4-2000 mhz machine did not start up when I turned it on.   It simply beeped 1-3-2, which must be some kind of coded message, and stopped trying to start.   I suspect some memory might have worked loose.   We'll see how it goes when I get the chance to check it.   The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours regardless.   Until then, take care, and stalk the wild fractal.
